The Usos make a statement in an okay episode of SmackDown.
The Usos make a statement in an okay episode of SmackDown.
Aiden English versus Dolph Ziggler is a fun matchup, but that and Jack Swagger versus Jinder Mahal don’t make for a particularly memorable Main Event.
A fine show made better by the return of The Headbangers!
Jey Uso versus Konnor and American Alpha versus Breezango are featured on a pretty good episode of Main Event.
Two new titles are revealed, a tag title tournament starts, Carmella makes people notice her, and a new number one contender for the World Title is named is a good episode of SmackDown.
Better than last week’s Main Event, this week features a rather slow moving bout between Erick Rowan and Rhyno and a very energetic and surprisingly good match between The Vaudevillains and The Hype Bros.
This year’s Summer Slam was entertaining, though for the matches that delivered on the hype, there were others that didn’t quite live up to expectations.
A pretty good show that does well to build (or at least maintain) some interest in Summer Slam, specifically the big matches.
Kane squashes Ricky Starks and Baron Corbin faces Rhyno in a pretty average episode of Main Event.
A pretty good show that feels like a minor curve in the road towards Summer Slam.
The first round of the tournament ends with a great, emotional match between tag team partners Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.
Ziggler wants to prove himself, American Alpha debuts, and a number one contender is decided for the IC Title in this pretty good edition of SmackDown.
The Brian Kendrick returns to a WWE ring in one of the best matches so far against a talented young luchador, Raul Mendoza.
SmackDown Live’s debut didn’t live up to the standard set by RAW, but it was a mostly enjoyable show.
A new start for RAW, and in many ways and a good show. It wasn’t perfect, but it was very entertaining and some big stuff happened. Hopefully they can keep this up.
A long and entertaining show highlighted by two good matches featuring long histories. There was some down time in the show, but the good outweighed the not as good.
Another good show with some more great moments.
The last Main Event before the new rosters take effect was entertaining, if somewhat standard.
The first live SmackDown was a good show. There were decent matches that did well to maintain interest in Battleground, and the draft itself was entertaining, though maybe not completely shocking.
This was an okay edition of Superstars, but nothing to go out of the way to see.
