Smackdown Live 2/20/18 - "Six-Woman Tag Team action... great"

[Savio]

http://www.wwe.com/f/styles/wwe_16_9_xxl/public/all/2018/02/20180213_SD_Preview_Charlotte_Riott--5c892376ea29f49230d2c069427e3691.jpg

Over the past two weeks, SmackDown Women’s Champion Charlotte Flair has been picking apart The Riott Squad as payback for the vicious attack that nearly cost her the title. After The Queen defeated Liv Morgan & Sarah Logan in singles competition, Ruby Riott issued a challenge to Flair, Becky Lynch & Naomi for a Six-Woman Tag Team throwdown.

[Ruien]

Why is Bliss on SD?

[Savio]

That's Naomi

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

7pm for the thread? It's just smackdown. Shit starting at 9 would still be alright.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

AJ: I'm here for the two hour match!

Renee: That was last night.

AJ: Fuck.

[rez]

damnit, renee. cheetah print reminds me of fran drescher.. oh well, still hawt.

[ClockShot]

Leather skirt and leopard print shirt.

Nice combination, Renee.

[Emperor Smeat]

Years later and Corbin still can't figure out how to do promos without awkward pauses or emphasizing words at random times.

[rez]

that's quite the athletic looking shirt, owens

[ClockShot]

Wondering these days if Borin' Corbin can be salvaged somehow.

Never took off the way Vince/Creative wanted to.

[ClockShot]

I'M HERE TO SELL CELL PHONES! I'M HERE TO SELL CELL PHONES! COME ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

[Savio]

Just cut the whole theme

[KIRA]

Its like they take a vote backstage each week to decide if they are giving Dolph music
and the vote starts right after he comes out

[slik]

Oh, look, it's an "everyone interrupts the promo" promo to open SD

[slik]

I feel like Baron Corbin vs. Roman Reigns will be 'a big feud' on RAW this year...I could see Corbin get drafted to RAW and feuding with Roman Reigns for 3-4 months. I'm not looking forward to it but I could see it happening...

[slik]

HI RUIEN

[KIRA]

I feel like Baron Corbin vs. Roman Reigns will be 'a big feud' on RAW this year...I could see Corbin get drafted to RAW and feuding with Roman Reigns for 3-4 months. I'm not looking forward to it but I could see it happening...

Why would you say such bleak things

[slik]

Kira, let's be honest. The draft exists to find fresh heels to work with RAW's top faces.

Get ready for a 2018 full of Roman vs Corbin, Roman vs Jinder and Roman vs Ziggler.

[KIRA]

Can you imagine the promos

like watching C-Span slowed down

[KIRA]

Kira, let's be honest. The draft exists to find fresh heels to work with RAW's top faces.

Get ready for a 2018 full of Roman vs Corbin, Roman vs Jinder and Roman vs Ziggler.

I'd almost be down with anything that lets me be blessed to bask in Jinders golden chiseled glory but the rest of it makes me weep for the future.

[rez]

I'd almost be down with anything that lets me be blessed to bask in Jinders golden chiseled glory but the rest of it makes me weep for the future.

hands off!

[slik]

"Jinder Mahal with a big win over Finn Balor tonight to earn a Universal Title shot"

[Emperor Smeat]

Ziggy-Owens match was pretty good.

[rez]

I hope Ziggler busts some fancy screens

[KIRA]

Didnt take SD crowd long to get into this match unlike the RAW crowd which didnt appreciate Rollins till halfway through his second bout.

[KIRA]

Ziggler basically signed on for two more yrs of being a glorified jobber

[KIRA]

"Jinder Mahal with a big win over Finn Balor tonight to earn a Universal Title shot"

Hey now with the right opponent Jinder can be really fun to watch

[KIRA]

I hope Ziggler busts some fancy screens

Maybe thats what his two yr deal is for

[Emperor Smeat]

Is Jinder sick again?

His voice sounds deeper or more harsh than usual.

[Savio]

Jinder is bi?

[slik]

Speaking of he who shall not be hindered...

[KIRA]

SPEAK OF THE SIX-PACKED DEVIL

[rez]

Jinder such a snazzy dresser

[KIRA]

Jinder is bi?

Gender doesn't hinder Jinder

[Savio]

The biggest sin is that Ryder is on there.

[Emperor Smeat]

Having a feud revolve around a random Top 10 list might be dumber than starting a feud involving a naked Enzo.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Bobby Roooooooooooooo will hinder Jinder.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Having a feud revolve around a random Top 10 list might be dumber than starting a feud with a naked Enzo in recent years.

You cannot insult Rusev on Rusev Day of all days. It's Rusev Day!

[KIRA]

The biggest sin is that Ryder is on there.

That has to be a fluke

Jinder passed up the chance to say inglorious bastard

[rez]

Does your mom know you're gay, Bobby?

[slik]

picturing droford as an evil foreign heel...

Droford Mahal

[Emperor Smeat]

KHALLAS OUTTA NOWHERE

[slik]

Where is the other Singh brother?

[rez]

injured

[KIRA]

how many times have we had this match

[slik]

6-woman tag

[slik]

Leesa Mattress

[Savio]

If your not gonna put your face in to Naomi's pussy don't do the spot.

[KIRA]

Again Naomi athletic AF just sloppy

[RP]

If your not gonna put your face in to Naomi's pussy don't do the spot.

That's the code i live my life by brotha!

[Evil Vito]

If I hear that god damn Dolph Ziggler Cricket "I'M ON FIYAH!" commercial again I'm going to fucking scream.

[slik]

Leesa Mattress commercial again

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Nia Jax in this Mixed Match Challenge ad.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Liv Morgan time

[Lock Jaw]

Checking in to say I :heart: Becky Lynch

[KIRA]

I love graves putting Riott Squad across as a bunch of low class no good bitches

[owenbrown]

I wonder if Carmella is going to cash in on Smackdown tonight or during the Mixed Match Challenge?

[Emperor Smeat]

6-woman tag match was pretty good overall.

[Lock Jaw]

Jinxed Becky Lynch into taking the pin because I said I :heart: her

Sorry

[KIRA]

I wonder if Carmella is going to cash in on Smackdown tonight or during the Mixed Match Challenge?

How long does she have left to collect

[Lock Jaw]

I wonder if Carmella is going to cash in on Smackdown tonight or during the Mixed Match Challenge?

Feel like Carmella has really "fallen off the radar" since James Ellsworth left and especially since Riott Squad appeared.

[rez]

When is Sami going to royally fuck over Owens to get his ultimate revenge? This shit has went on long enough.

[KIRA]

AWW KISS HIM YOU BIG LUG

[Lock Jaw]

Feel like they waited too long to pull the trigger on Carmella. She had mega heat after Money in the Bank.

Money would have been in having her win the title a month or three later and have Ellsworth helping her keep it.

[KIRA]

Feel like Carmella has really "fallen off the radar" since James Ellsworth left and especially since Riott Squad appeared.

Maybe thats what they want so when she cashes in you really wont see it coming

[Emperor Smeat]

Sami is a really great friend.

Willing to give his best buddy a WWE title reign as a gift like the time HBK did it to Triple H for the European title and Nash pretending to slip on an invisible banana peel to give Hogan the WCW title.

[Lock Jaw]

Maybe thats what they want so when she cashes in you really wont see it coming

Yeah, but now all her heat is gone and no one cares.

[KIRA]

Yeah, but now all her heat is gone and no one cares.

You may be right its odd Ellsworth was such a huge part of her being hated and over and they let him go.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Please feature Sputnik Monroe in this.

[owenbrown]

godfuckingdammit

[Emperor Smeat]

Feel like they waited too long to pull the trigger on Carmella. She had mega heat after Money in the Bank.

Money would have been in having her win the title a month or three later and have Ellsworth helping her keep it.

Going to laugh if her cash-in happens at MitB 2018 or the go-home show solely so she doesn't become the first person to have a failed cash-in via Creative forgetting about it.

WWE panicking with last year's Survivor Series build and having to call up a bunch of women at once because of the Women's Rumble really hurt Carmella the most.

[Lock Jaw]

Oh no

Onscreen graphics

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Waldo

[KIRA]

Why is Roman grateful?

[owenbrown]

they really need to stop with the stupid fucking cheesy graphics

[KIRA]

I'm waiting for New Day to break out their Black Panther inspired gear

[Emperor Smeat]

You may be right its odd Ellsworth was such a huge part of her being hated and over and they let him go.

According to Ellsworth, it was due to him being a bit vocal about not feeling comfortable with the pet aspect of their storyline and Creative running out of ideas after Becky beat him.

Even he thought that meant Carmella was going to cash-in at any moment since he was no longer needed.

[slik]

Kevin Dunn discovering onscreen graphics is the equivalent of Skynet being born.

[Emperor Smeat]

Even though their matches have been great, New Day vs Usos is as tired of a matchup as Sami-Owens.

[Lock Jaw]

Dastardly New Day cheating to win

[Lock Jaw]

Even though their matches have been great, New Day vs Usos is as tired of a matchup as Sami-Owens.

And much like Sami-Owens, their last match was billed as their "final encounter".

[KIRA]

oh shit

[Lock Jaw]

Gargano/Almas on NXT tomorrow

[Savio]

If I hear that god damn Dolph Ziggler Cricket "I'M ON FIYAH!" commercial again I'm going to fucking scream.

Sorry

[KIRA]

Kevin Dunn discovering onscreen graphics is the equivalent of Skynet being born.

Yes everytime he uses a scrolling text I hate him a little more
speaking of where is the RR 2018 winner tonight?

[KIRA]

Like Luke Harper getting Rowan to keep his focus

[Savio]

I really believe B2 "is ready for asuka" and will win in TPWW Survivor.

[rez]

According to Ellsworth, it was due to him being a bit vocal about not feeling comfortable with the pet aspect of their storyline and Creative running out of ideas after Becky beat him.

Even he thought that meant Carmella was going to cash-in at any moment since he was no longer needed.

He should have waited a little longer until her and Cass broke up. At least he got a big ol kiss out of it all

[Emperor Smeat]

The commercial break was longer than this Bludgeon squash match.

[owenbrown]

when are they gonna stop facing nameless jobbers?

[KIRA]

I look forward to the day those pop up screen graphics cause some kid a sezure so the WWE will be forced to stop

[rez]

Liv needs glasses for real. First she had a problem hitting her own team mates in a brawl outside the ring and now she cannot even look into the damn camera.

[Emperor Smeat]

These terrible pop up and graphics are going to be the "Tout" of this era in regards to something that WWE quickly gets rid of once they finally realize how dumb it looks on television.

Or from the constant ridicule they keep getting for using it.

[owenbrown]

WWE teaching a class on how to overuse social media tonight?

[slik]

onscreen graphics r killing me

[KIRA]

Its sad that one the last things Jim Johnston got to do was make music for Baron Corbin
I can't think of a worse note to go out on

[slik]

Ryan Clark has CENA NUFF

Also Corbin looks like Filtch from Harry Potter

[Savio]

onscreen graphics r killing me

Can't wait until it gets like this:

[Savio]

If I hear that god damn Dolph Ziggler Cricket "I'M ON FIYAH!" commercial again I'm going to fucking scream.

Sorry

[RP]

Hot take : Corbin isnt that bad.

[RP]

That was the best Deep Six i've seen him deliver.

[KIRA]

Hot take : Corbin isnt that bad.

:lol::rofl:

[Savio]

Dolph still heel right?

[KIRA]

YES MATCHING ROBES!!! !!!!!:heart::heart::love::love::love:

[Emperor Smeat]

:lol: at Nia still not a fan of Titus Worldwide.

[KIRA]

Susan G Koman??.....I hope Apollo and Jax lose bad

[GD]

Psyched for 205 Live.

[GD]

And Buddy Murphy retains the dubstep entrance music.

[Lock Jaw]

Don't like his haircut

[Emperor Smeat]

For a division meant to be all about fast paced action and athleticism, the Cruiser division has way too many rest holds kill the flow in their matches.

[Lock Jaw]

Sweet new finisher from Buddy Murphy

[Lock Jaw]

Finals of Cedric Alexander vs Drew Gulak at WRESTLEMANIA?

[GD]

Daivari looks a lot like an Indian actor

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BZmNlODEzM2YtOTUyOS00MDVmLTk4YzgtMzAxZmQ2ZDBkNTAyXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTExNDQ2MTI@._V1_UY317_CR8,0,214 ,317_AL_.jpg

[GD]

The match wasn't anything special but I am glad that Murphy advanced in the tournament.

[Lock Jaw]

Lucha Things stable is here

[GD]

Woob! Woob! Woob!

[Lock Jaw]

Vic Roman saying that Good Lucha Things happen at Lucha House Parties

[GD]

Two big matchups for next week :yes:

[Emperor Smeat]

Guess WWE finally realized it would be a smart idea to hire local jobbers to help out the Cruiser division.

[#1-norm-fan]

Gonna need a rundown of the crazy graphics that occurred tonight. I was highly entertained by them two weeks ago in a train wreck sort of way.

[Lock Jaw]

I like Gallagher's new theme (new to me)

Glad he isn't wrestling in dress shoes anymore

[Emperor Smeat]

Gallahgher's new gear looks terrible.

[GD]

Love the new Gulak.

[GD]

Gallagher's new attire :lol:

[Droford]

If you need any indication Styles is losing the belt at Fast lane all you need to do is watch Nakamura on smackdown..oh wait..

[GD]

So are 205 Live competitors still a part of the RAW roster? They haven't appeared on the show in a couple of weeks as far as I can recall.

[Emperor Smeat]

Ouch at that thud sound when Ali flew into the barrier.

[Lock Jaw]

Ali never giving up, never surrendering

[Savio]

Wish they would have Nak feud with someone after winning the Rumble even if it's just Mojo.

[Lock Jaw]

Was thinking the same. He's just doing nothing.

I would have had him come out and challenge Randy Orton for Fastlane. Kind of like he did in NXT when he challenged Finn Balor, just have him come out and say he wants to beat the best.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Guess WWE finally realized it would be a smart idea to hire local jobbers to help out the Cruiser division.

They have plenty of jobbers just not local.
