• Hardy/Miz was a fun match with a great ending.

I'm happy Miz is in the MITB Ladder Match. Hopefully he can go all the way.

• I can only assume that with Sheamus and Cesaro bickering and then only one of them being able to make it to the MITB Ladder Match, that this is the beginning of the end of The Bar.

I kinda hope it is, as I've never really been all that big on The Bar and I think they're much better off as singles competitors.

• I see that Nakamura shares his locker room with a member of the WWE Crew who likes to sit in the dark and stare at a monitor.

https://s31.postimg.cc/cmqeod4sr/ezgif-4-89d5fdbf10.gif

• <s>LayCool</s> The IIconics are just awful.

• So Mandy Rose is what you get when you mix Eva Marie with Goldust.

I'm digging her theme though. It's a really nice chillout track.

• I'm happy Rusev is in the MITB Ladder Match and that he got there by winning clean. I did say that I would be really happy if The Miz won the MITB Ladder Match, but I'd also feel pretty happy if Rusev won.

I kinda feel that at this moment in time, neither will win and the winner will end up being Strowman.

I don't think I can ever buy into Paige being GM.

Me too.

It just doesn't feel right.

I can't help but feel that a big reason why she's GM of SmackDown is because of The Rock's movie "about her".

If The Rock wasn't making that movie, I find it hard to see why the WWE would keep Paige around, especially in the main on-screen roll that she has now.

This is all happening to keep The Rock happy.

I always wanted there to be a storyline where some old vet who never won the title (let's say goldust) was given a mainevent push against a heel who stated "You will never ever hold this title".

Goldust then wins the grueling match and with tears in his eye crawls over to grab the title. But before he gets there Seth Rollins (The MITB Winner) curb stomps him and cashes in.

I'm iffy on the bar. I thought their random team was weird, but they grew on me. It allowed Cesaro to get more "WWE Points" and Sheamus to not be annoying in the main events when he has no business being there. They're...long in the tooth. It's hard to stay relevant in a tag team division that is more interested in putting over children.

That being said, what is there for them as singles guys? Sheamus is on limited time because of his spinal condition, and Cesaro is not really their type. I liked the idea of The Bar on Smackers, because they could go into singles competition without actually splitting.

I wouldn't mind it if they became lackeys to Nakamura, to be honest. Call them Shinsuke International. I don't know. It's hard to care. I really want to care about Cesaro, I do.

Honestly I wouldn't mind them pairing up with Samoa Joe. Just three badasses together.

The biggest issue is you can't have a 4 time World Champion be a lackey. It would have to be all equals, but that instantly brings back the memory of how bad the League of Nations was. Granted Joe as the mouthpiece of the group would work.

That being said Bar vs Bludgeon Bros has to happen before any kind of change, cause that would be a hell of a brawl.

"She hasn't been booked well, so let's move on from her"

Or you know, just book her well. You think it's going to be better with shit ass Carmella at the helm?

They've put alot of work into Carmella and I'd rather see them continue to build her up.

Asuka's streak was the only thing interesting thing she had going for her and it was way over due for her to lose. No reason to push her to the top of the division right now, would hurt the division more so than Carmella will.

Nah. Pretty sure Carmella, who wrestles like Kelly Kelly, would hurt the division more.

She doesn't have to run through everyone. Just book her like the great performer she is and I'm sure whatever she does will be better than Carmella's run where the title will lose all of its meaning.

Carmella is at least an interesting character. Asuka's has nothing without her streak. I don't even think she's all that great in the ring. Is she better than most, yeah but hasn't translated that to good matches. Charlotte and Sasha are better in ring performers than Asuka. I believe most are blinded by her NXT booking and how well they used her. She's been exposed on the main roster though.

Carmella is the most interesting and best "on the mic" of anyone in the women's division by far imo!!!

idk what is so interesting about Asuka... does a bunch of kicks... wrestles the same shitty WWE-style matches as everyone else, which is not her fault I guess... but at least the others have some sort of personality/character

People here insinuating that Asuka has no personality.

what

Rather see Carmella badly portray a stuck up bitch character that we've seen done better by just about everyone else.

Like, when Carmella talks, I don't believe a thing she's saying, because everything she says seems so forced.

She's the female roman reigns.

In my opinion, I'd say SmackDown has the worst female roster.

The only good things about it are Charlotte, Asuka and Becky Lynch. Whereas Raw's is all good with the only exception being Sasha Banks.

SmackDown's female roster is mostly just a bunch of "Barbies" really.

Agree 2 Disagree


Bayley is boring and sucks
Sasha is good but dragged down by boring Bayley
Nattie is good sometimes but also a jobber most of the time
Ronda has had 1 match
Sarah Logan sucks
Nia is boring now that her gimmick is not being bullied
Alexa Bliss is great
Mickie James is great
Ruby Riott is good
Liv Morgan sucks

What personality does Asuka have... really confused... only says "you're not ready for Asuka"...

Carmella doesn't sound "forced" at all to me... sounds completely natural on the mic, unlike almost everyone else on the entire roster (m+f)

I am with AAA. I dont watch SD so I am limited to what I see from Carmella on the pre and post shows for the ppvs. She seems very fluent and charismatic. I did watch SD when she had that one dude with her and she was good even back then.

Asuka, just like Nak, cant have me invested. She is the better wrestler but I like characters. And speaking English is a big part of cutting a promo to get me involved.

It's the same thing as I would rather watch Miz anyday if the week over Nak. Miz is drawing me in. Nak is just an amazing wrestler that cant speak English.

Heel Nak is so much cooler than the Miz. The initial babyface Nak "Just liked to have fun" so I hear you on that.

She's Charming playful really f****** scary all at the same time even little thing she does like that gesture she made in the women's Royal Rumble toward Amber moons arm. And her stuff with the Miz was amazing is one little moment that I can't find where she gave him a quick thumbs up just little things she's good at it. Part of her character is that she revels In a fight she's not really a stoic badass she's actually having fun taking and giving a beat down.

Nakamura might be the most over heel on Smackdown right now. As much as people loved him he has a tremendous ability to be a complete bastard and it's great and the English he does speak is short, sweet and has yet to fail.

people singing the Miz's praises like he's the next coming drive me fucking nuts. He's "good". But come on. He's not really a great athlete and even as a promo would get eaten alive in a better era. He's done well to bridge the gap from crap reality star turned wrestler INTO good performer. But he will forever lack credibility and will be stuck at the level he's at.

Nak is getting over by actually just being an awesome heel and being far better than the Miz could ever dream of. And he only has to go "Sorry.... No speak English"

I mean look at Roman Reigns he speaks perfect English.

I don't even see how you could say Asuka saying no one's ready for Asuka can count against her we all know how Vince life to drive things into the ground. If he could he would reduce everybody to four moves and a catchphrase.

Is Carmella good in her role as a heel yes she's an annoying coward and she knows how to play it to the hilt.
And then you have the iconix who are......... annoying cowards. I'm not exactly sure what Charlotte's character is other than I'm the best which isn't really a character but I guess we'll give her a pass.

And the best part about Nakamura is unlike The Miz unlike Elias unlike maybe Samoa Joe I'm not sure where he stands Nakamura actually gets booed for being a heel he didn't have to revert to some racist stereotype that hates America to do it(I love you gender but if we're being honest) he's just really damn good at being hated.

Nakamura proves that it's not how many words you know it's how you say something and what you do. Jeff Hardy sucks on the mic he has not improved 1iota but you love him.

Mojo Riley can talk his head off he is as annoying as Carmella if not more so but you don't want to see him on your television.

I like how Charlotte's character has evolved. She has a certain regality that she's made her own.
