If you don't like it what the hell are you doing on a wrestling board?
Maybe if you didn't know what was going to happen, you'd enjoy it.

:wtf:

I personally thought Smackdown was a good show tonight. I enjoyed the handicap match and main event a lot. And they hyped the Rumble pretty nicely too. Noble/Mysterio could have used some more time to be hyped, but eh

LOL. You can't go more than two weeks without getting a new Mr. Unintelligible.

Anyway, I'm sure you turned off your TV after Bradshaw won a spot into the Rumble, right? Cuz that'd be a logical time.

I didn't read the SD spoilers, but last night I was on a total predictability roll.

(Just ask my GF, who I prolly pissed off by not keeping my predictions to myself)

It doesn't take a spoiler when the plot is moving in very obvious ways.

BTW, I don't see why someone'd turn off last night's Smackdown, as it was pretty damn good in my opinion...

I mean, whatever turns you on (Or off)...

Last night was damn good considering.

Yea, shows before PPVs are usually VERY predictable. Not to say that others aren't, but I notice that PPV weeks are especially easy to predict.

Which is a shame, since they could probably get people more excited if we weren't all going "Okay, and now Holly's gonna come out..." Or "And his opponent's gonna be Moore..."

Oh well. If they can churn out a good show, even if it's predictable, I guess I wouldn't be too disappointed, as long as it wasn't always like this. Still, they could have done a lot worse.

I did enjoy the show so I'm not gonna complain about predictability.

They could have made it a little less clichéd, but all things considered, I'm not going to sweat it, because it was a pretty damn good show anyways.

I'm just saying it coulda been better...

I liked Smackdown this week.

I didn't think I'd like the Eddie-Chavo fued, but its been done really well, and if the rumours about Eddie are tru it actually wont hurt him in terms of a push to the top. Adding Chavo Sr to the mix was a good move, and he didn't look that bad in the ring. I like where the fued is going, and Eddie-Angle should rock at Mania.

Noble-Rey fued was advanced, shouldn't Nunzio give Noble a free beating since they are cousins or whatever?

I liked how they had Rumble Advancement matches. This year has been by far the best job of making the Rumble seem like the most important match of the year. I really enjoyed all the things they did on both shows to build up the match. And for once, just about everyone in the match was put in the match for a reaosn instead of just having 10-15 guys just thrown in with no storyline.

The Cena-Benoit tag deal was really good. It was almost booked like an ECW match, they gvae it a ton of time, and they made Cena look like a star. Cena-Heyman could be a really good fued going forward (provided they dont something dumb like take Paul off TV again).

I thought the Big Show-Lesnar promo was some funny stuff; "I gained 15 pounds following you around", I literally laughed out loud on that one. I even didn't mind Show laying out Cena and Benoit. The way I see it both guys had a tough match, and Show has to portrayed as dominant individual when it comes to confrontations. Plus, it makes him look like a strong candidate for winning on Sunday even though he has no shot.

Didn't see Bradshaw match because I 'conviniently' timed my bathroom break during his match.....I'm sure it was really good though.

Strong overall show, looking forward to Sunday and how they handle the build to NWO and Mania.

Sadly I have to agree. I don't watch smackdown! because I find it's boring. It has nothing to do whether I read the spoilers or not. I used to enjoy the show even with the spoilers. But I really do find Smackdown! boring. I don't care about any of their main eventers. Brock is a wuss, Kurt Angles gimmick has worn off. John Cena is good but he has nobody cool to feud with. Chris Beniot is a very talented wrestler, but he has no gimmick. Eddie Geurrero is great but this feud with Chavo is going to kill his credibility. I honestly don't care about any other wrestler on the show. The tag team division is stale because the Bashams suck as do the WGTT (again, lacking cool gimmicks). The CW devision would be good if the workers actually had time to perform and were decent on the mic. Just my opinions.

WTF are you talking about? How is a well-established feud between two excellent workers going to kill either of their credibility?
