Should be a good episode!
Predictions?
Women’s Title match ends in DQ cause the rest of the division getting involved Orton beats Rowan AJ beats Corbin either The Colons or Breezango wins beat the clock
great to see SD’s Tag Team Division will get some spotlight with this beat the clock thing just curious though who will win cause I don’t think it will be AA but if not AA then who else? new tag team?
I think it will either be Breezango or The Colons
I would like it to be Breezango cause I like Tyler Breeze a lot I’ve said it before underrated he and Summer should of gone on longer and I don’t mind Fandango
They just booked them all wrong after the feud with Dolph
it’d be great if Summer was not hurt and she was the manager of Breezango cause that would be interesting I think with the tie in of Fandango and Summer’s past relationship
Tag Team getting love tonight
About time!
ya’ll think Charlotte winning the title tonight or Carmella, Natalya and Tamina are interrupting and wrecking hell on Charlotte and Naomi?
The rest of the women will interfere
I feel like Becky is going to become Charlotte and Naomi’s ally with Naomi and Becky being buddy buddy but the tension I hope is there between Charlotte and Becky cause of there past rivalry
I don’t think Becky will be anywhere near the title picture
it’s a possibility but it will be interesting to see Becky’s role going forward or if she is just taking time off
A rumor is going around that WWE might do Becky vs James Ellsworth at Backlash
I would not mind that actually bro really I would not
Yeah likely, don’t see them giving away Naomi vs Charlotte again not on PPV
I see Charlotte winning the title at Backlash
I think the rest of the women will intervene and jump Charlotte, including Naomi.
Let’s Go!
Here we go!
Let’s see Smackdown set the WWE on fire again this week
Nakamura!
If I am able to go to that SD back in Toledo next month I can’t wait to see Nakamura’s entrance live
It’s better to see it live than on TV cause TV doesn’t do it justice
that’s easy to attest to especially like with Bray Wyatt’s entrance when I saw that on the final SD before the Rumble still the best show I’ve ever been too and this might be even better
Here comes the artist known as Shinsuke Nakamura
The Artist lol
Hi everyone! I’m excited for this match happening now. Go #TeamBlue!!!!
Howdy
Here is Dolph
Too bad were not savages or we’d be chanting “Nakamura’s Gonna Kill You”
I think one thing that is going to hurt Shinsuke nakamura and asuka on the main roster is there English is not very good and my make Vince McMahon reluctant to give them a big push
IDK, Andre was almost incomprehensible and he was the biggest draw for over a decade.
That’s true but times are different now
Yeah, but his talent might overshadow the language barrier. I could understand him reasonably well.
If I were Vince, I would get them English teachers (if they’re not doing so already). Invest in the people you wanna push. Don’t wanna spend $$$ Vince? Duolingo is another option. But the point is: Invest in your people. Improve them.
Nakamura’s English isn’t the problem, his thick accent could be, but that’s not really something that can be fixed.
I understand that but the more you listen to and mimic a language, the thickness of any original accent can be reduced. That’s why I was suggesting an English teacher as well and I wasn’t just speaking in terms of vocabulary. Of course it will never totally go away but at least it may be a lot clearer. I can understand Nakamura too but I know it could be a bit better.
I don’t think it’s necessary and I don’t think Vince would push it. He’s over, the audience understands him, and it might be seen as disrespectful to ask him to lose the accent of his homeland.
Fair enough.
Kudos to Nakamura for being a gentleman, but Ziggler is a jerk for disrespecting Renee like that.
What is Dolph Ziggler rambling about? This is sad.
The Jacksons
I got that but how are the two related? I mean if anything it made me miss Michael Jackson.
Same. But I think he was trying to call Nakamura fake and he’s really Micheal idk i think the promo was a miss for me
Yeah it was a miss for me as well. I started feeling embarrassed for him because the crowd was like “Huh???”.
good opener
I have hard time seeing Shinsuke nakamura coming out to glorious
thank god it went to Roode
Yes
Yeah, that doesn’t suit him.
I feel like Baron Corbin could be big. Still not a fan but he has a workable heel persona.
Love KO on commentary lol
KO’s got a job for life at the commentary table whenever he’s done wrestling
KO says Byron’s questions makes him miss Michael Cole. Huh. Wow.
AJ wins!
KO’s already looked stronger on SD then he’s ever looked on RAW
KO did look strong on RAW but he looked weak when he had the Universal Title
that reign as Universal Champ did more harm then good in my opinion
It was because of him being paired with Jerhico
it’s just better to sneak off to Smackdown where Vince does not micromanage everything
Who y’all got for Charlotte vs Naomi?
I’m praying that Naomi wins or the rest of the division jumps Charlotte. Charlotte does not need another title reign.
Ends in DQ or No contest
Dear God, don’t let Charlotte win tonight.
I think it will be delayed until Backlash if that makes you feel better lol
Oh wow. They ditched the Shining Stars gimmick. SmackDown = Smart decisions, excellent results. I prefer the Colóns.
Shining stars was doomed
Oh yeah. It was dead in the water a looooooooooooonnnnnngggg time ago.
It feels like were getting a Breezango vs Usos match which would be nice cause I don’t see another AA vs Usos match
I want either The Acension or Breezango to become #1 contenders
So American Alpha for the titles OR will SD do a swerve and let Breezango win? Find out next time on DragonBall Z! ?????
Lol
there’s me and Ja’Von’s girl Becky
One of my baes
What is Rusev responding to?
Why he hasn’t appeared on SmackDown since the shakeup
Well that’s not what I was expecting Rusev demanding a title match at MITB
looks like I might be right Becky is gonna be involved in this whole Charlotte/Naomi stuff after all
I think Charlotte gets jumped and Becky comes to her aid.
I was telling Ja’Von that earlier that she might become Charlotte and Naomi’s ally
That would make sense. But then who would come after the title after that? Natalya, Carmella or Tamina?
oh Charlotte would probably turn on them to set up another Naomi vs Charlotte match if I had to guess
Okay. I can see it.
Looks like you were right they going in this direction instead of the intergender match
they could still do it if they wanted to like after the alliance breaks down do Becky vs Carmella and save the intergender-species match for SummerSlam
Finally we get a heel Becky cause I like her better as a heel than face
Where are we? High school??? Becky, tell these girls bye!!!
looks like we got another mean girls kliq got the Total Divas Kliq and now the Natalya/Carmella/Tamina Kliq
Don’t forget about James Ellsworth
….Okay mean interspecies Kliq
?????. A mean THINGS clique.
LMAO
one more for the DaDrainPipe you’re welcome for the ratings increase
I love it when they show the kids in the crowd. It’s so cute!
Random question time: Thoughts on all the former Impact Wrestling stars coming to or already in WWE
Hardyz and Drew okay I get that but Gunner and Crazzy Steve…odd signings too me
I like both Gunner and Crazzy Steve and I can see them both doing well in WWE. Looks like Gunner is going to NXT and I would to see him feud with EY Roode Drew and many others plus if they give the greenlight for Rowan’s clown gimmick he could team with Crazzy Steve or have Steve join SAniTY
we’ll see it’s just odd idk why just feels odd but Maria and Mike Bennett coming in i like it’s gonna be great to see a heel Maria in WWE
So are the Bennetts, TBH.
The Bennetts I have no problem with cause I think WWE wanted to bring Maria back and I think signing Mike would be a extra part of the deal maybe
Problem is that Maria is too associated with the Divas and that could really hurt her.
I think she’ll work around it cause idk if there going to have her wrestle exactly initially but a heel Maria in WWE does sound great cause she has flourished as a heel in TNA and other places
Looks like the Women’s Title match is gonna be the main event tonight
Orton vs Mahal dare I sound like a nut job although I probably am a few cheeses short of making a cheeseburger might actually be a good match
I’m all for this now
Smackdown has done it again they have taken some one we do not care about and we actually care about them
Agreed.
okay why do i feel the camera crew loves getting these hot shots of the women be professional people…and thank you at the same time lol
All I have to say about Lana’s promo is DAMN hurry up and get here already
I’m right there with you homie
Time for Breezango to win
Alright Breezango getting a title shot I’m cool with it i think they actually deserve it let’s do it fresh match
So does The Acension but for now let’s be happy for Breezango
well Breeze you could argue has had to put with more shit to be fair cause he’s been overshadowed a lot during his career even in NXT
Agreed
I knew it!!!! I knew it!!!!
Look Mom! It’s an evil leprechaun!!!
STTTOOOOOPPPPPPP ????
I got my own Random Question: Do you think Charlotte Flair can surpass Trish Stratus as the GOAT in Womens Wrestling history?
No. Not in terms of staying over with the crowd for years, heel or face. Charlotte’s in danger of the crowd being tired of her, something that really didn’t happen to Trish.
For this not to happen she needs to leave the title picture for a while
Exactly! And the Charlotte stans don’t get that. She’s suffocates the Women’s Division and she needs to be out of the title picture. I don’t deny that she’s talented, but people are getting tired of her constantly being champion.
It hasn’t even been 2 years into her main roster run and she is already a 4 time champion
Exactly! The Women’s Division can’t grow if she’s constantly champion. SD Women’s Division made waves because the first three champions weren’t girls with family histories in WWE. Heck, Nattie and Nikki have yet to be champions on SmackDown. Charlotte as champion will hurt everyone, including her.
Agreed which is why I’m mad that they gonna put the title on her probably at Backlash
6 Woman Tag at Backlash that’s my feeling Becky/Naomi/Charlotte vs Carmella/Natalya/Tamina
I CALLED IT
You did!
No Becky but I guess we always have time for that. See y’all next week God willing.
