Feels like a fucking ripoff not having Nakamura in there

Guys are getting beaten with ladders for the past 20 minutes and then getting up and continuing to wrestle. Nakamura took a couple shots with a camera and is dead apparently. Probably a good thing he's not in this match. He clearly wasn't prepared.

Nakamura is resurrected!

Stream started buffering so I turned it off. Was it tits? If it was tits I'll be upset.

Styles may need therapy to treat Ultimate X flashbacks

Nakamura dastardly heel...... just waiting backstage until everyone beat each other up and he could come in with his HP still high, if not full.......

AJ drop looked nasty

Naka so over

Corbin about to ruin Shinsuke's moment and get the briefcase

Nakamura allergic to climbing ladders or what?

Can't wait for nak/aj feud

did those other guys go home already?

so everyone else is dead. got it

Baron Corbin unhooks the briefcase (eventually) and wins!

yawn

called it!

Corbin.....ok

fan in reaction shot with HUGE pimple in middle of his adam's apple...so awkward

i mean, come on, it's like they all took a nap.

Good match......

Wish they had booked the women's MitB match to be good too......

Jinder says bring it on Baron Yawnbin

Now Baron just needs to invite Jinder on a friendly trip to India to guarantee victory when he cashes in.

Baron Corbin only winner who made sense, IMHO........

lol @ a PPV ending with Jinder Mahal and Baron Corbin on top in the main events.

I was expecting Corbin. Probably the most sensible option. His character should play well with the briefcase.

She's wanting a real man with them legs spread.

I am not that man.

Jinder Mahal much more natural on Talking Smack..... still a heel, but also a "real person" who talks like a "real person" and not a guy who is cutting a promo........

Baron Corbin pretty good on Talking Smack as well....

Booker T name dropping Disco Inferno on Talking Smack

I give the ppv a 7.4...weighted stats for being the ppv for the #1 show.

Hope DB doesn't somehow take away the briefcase from Carmella this Tuesday...I was thinking what Booker said on Talking Smack - possession is 9/10ths of the law.

Also feel pretty "MEH" on Corbin winning on the men's side. I would've liked to have seen Sami Zayn leave with it, but whatever.

Feel likebthe fact that Cofbi was the most sensible choice is exzctly why he shouldn't have won. Too precictable. I don't think it would have been hsrd to make any other participant work as the victor.

Boring Corbin winning the briefcase. Seems like they want to kill SD off since the shakeup.

lol. Get shit on, Smackdown.

Slept through the main event :(

Though I expected Carmella, Corbin & Jinder to win it is kind of funny that this is the best roster in the history of the entire WWE/WWF and they have more talent available than ever before and they run with Corbin and Jinder on SD.

Plz don't kill the A-Show @WWE. Thx, sliksuke nakamura

On that note I feel like they don't do a very good job at pushing most people... Shinsuke's entire push since coming to SD has been weird sort of.

Sometimes when people get really over in NXT I wish they would just transfer over the same type of gimmick/push to the main roster instead of "Vince McMahon tweaking it" since a lot of the time that tweak seems to make people who were once really popular boring as fuck (cough-cough Bayley).

Corbin is not title worthy yet, hope he doesn't get it soon.

My prediction is Jinder drops the belt to Cena at SummerSlam, Corbin cashes in and wins it.

Cena does NOT need another title reign

Awful @slik

Last year SD features Cena, AJ, and Ambrose mainly in the title scene. Now we have face Orton, Jinder, and now Boring Corbin? Lol.

SD was so great because it was so stable with the main powers on the roster. Now it seems like they are playing the Raw game with whow turn is it next month.

I'm not averse to SmackDown giving opportunities to new guys. It is the land of opportunity, after all. Then again I also like Corbin so him winning doesn't bother me at all.

The "Mike Kanellis" debut was so fucking weird.

Would totally take on the Kanellis name though if it meant marrying Maria.

Audience was dead for Corbin winning it. To be honest, I can't think of a single memorable thing he's done since being on the main roster other than winning the Andre the Giant battle royal last year (and that leading to nothing), and a shitty feud with Kalisto that nobody cared about.

Otherwise, good match and all-round good PPV.

He eliminated Braun at the Rumble.... Squashed Ambrose with a forklift.

Cena is going to make Corbin LOOK STRONG. Corbin must LOOK STRONG.;)

Don't want Corbin getting it so soon and hate <1day title reigns.

I think next year Baron will get sent to RAW and Roman vs Corbin will be a top program that lasts for 4-5 months tbh. Same for Jinder. I see Roman plowing thru RAW's limited heels between now and WM (as well as Strowman and Lesnar).

Currently watching a replay since I missed the entire ppv last night, how was it overall?

It was ok. Not bad, Not amazing. Main-Event was good. Nothing I disliked was because of the wrestler's performances, more so creative decisions.

Baron should shave his head bald.

This haircut gives him a middle life crisis dad look.

I heard this show sucked or something. I'll get to it eventually, after I get through 1986 Tuesday Night Titans.

Getting a kick out of people saying they predicted Carmella and Corbin to win. That was only reported for a week or so.

Overall I wasn't to impressed with the show. Women's mitb, for being historic, was too short and booked mega safe. Nothing wrong with being safe but you know those women wanted more out of the match. I have no problem with the ending sequence it just came a lot faster than it should have. It just felt off.

New Day vs Usos was another blah to me. Two matches in a row booked to have the ending draw heat for the heel.

Naomi and Lana was alright. Yet we have another dusty type finish to end the match. A straight up legit finish doesn't seem in the cards.

Mark and Maria didn't real seem to hit it off with the live crowd too much. Has Maria been gone that long to be forgotten?

Well just like people predicted Corbin and Carmella I am just going to say I predicted this. Orton's hometown combined with his dad on Father's day is a sure fire way to say Jinder retains if there ever was one. Crazy finish again and we are four for four. For, to even that out as if I had ocd.

Hey the fashion police won clean! Over the team that has been stalking and beating them up! On the first try! That makes you an evil threat.

Men's mitb had it's moments. I will nitpick and say they jumped the gun on nak's entrance. The guy leaves himself so wide open when he lays down in the ring it's just obvious someone is gonna come stomp him. With that aside it was aimes to give Nak a rub cause Corbin could have attacked anyone but he chose nak meaning he deemed nak the most dangerous man. Of course he gets that Babyface return pop for being a bad ass. Favorite part easily goes to the staredown between an and nak. Good stuff. Personally I wanted aj to win because I love all things aj but Corbin is intriquing so hopefully smackdown starts some feuds instead of all this constant tag match shit.

Definitely the worst outing for the blue brand since the split but still watchable because almost everyone on the show has been booked decently over the year.

Crazy to think that Breeze and Dango started from the whole Goldust/R-truth thing.

All Shook Up.

Ellsworth "trolling" all the women in WWE on twitter. Some funny ass stuff there.

Finished watching the ppv. Outside of the MitB ladder matches, felt like just a regular episode of Smackdown.

Women's MitB match was pretty good overall. Ending was pretty funny and anti-climatic though. JBL mentioning only 1 failure in MitB history and excuses for another cash-in was interesting since WWE finally realizes Cena's cash-in wasn't a real failure like with Sandow.

Had really low expectations but Lana-Naomi was a lot better than I was expecting. PPV so far has been decent to good match but anti-climatic endings.

:lol: at the debut of Maria/Mike had the crowd a lot more happy to see Maria than Mike. Their gimmick seems like its going to be really bad though.

Really big missed opportunity not having Alphas be the ones who trashed Breezango's office and attacked Breeze. They desperately need to go in a new direction to stay relevant in the tag division. Been overshadowed badly by both New Day and Breezango for popular/face teams in recent months.

Men's MitB match was pretty good overall. Corbin winning the case makes sense since everyone else didn't really need it or would have been a waste.

Naomi v Lana was my fav of the night. Strictly due to Lana's ring work really catching me off guard.

RIP Crazy Edgar.

Actually, I've heard rumors that this year's SummerSlam is to be subtitled Jailhouse Rock.

I was listening to Busted Open, they were adamant that if Ellsworth pulled the briefcase down, then that would completely dismantle the women's division and everything they had built up since the Divas Revolution...

... so has that happened?

Just watched the Maria & Mike Kanellis segment, thought it was great. Its not as great of a name as Miracle but having him take her name fits him so much.

No

Its heat, you arent supposed to like it.

that's what i figured it was supposed to be.

i guess their argument is that its not good heat and people will just tune off the women's division again.

I know this has been said before.... but the IWC - TPWW division clamors for new talent and shits on it when it happens. Personally, I don't feel like Corbin has been exposed on the main roster enough to really determine how things will go. He was great in NXT, but needs to "evolve" on the main roster and make people care.

He could be great, but time will tell since he has been given "the ball" in a sense to run with.

Agreed. Lana was DEFINITELY very good. I wonder how/if this will fit in with Rusev's return. The rest of the PPV was just..... bleh. 4/10

I can appreciate taking out Nakamura. He is hot and the crowd knows it, but I think it is smart to not over-expose him so quickly as to not have the crowd burn out on him. Also sincerely hope they build the Styles v Nakamura program. Those two can really show the rest of the locker room how to get it fucking done.

Time will tell.

@jimmy Highly unlikely. Build her up as a chicken shit opportunist. The breif case sells the angle. Easy heat.

They def helped her get some GOOD heat from what happened. It completely undermines "the revolution", which is the point I think. Him trolling them on Twitter just adds the "real" ness to it in the reality era.

They need to try to get some genuine emotion out of the ladies of Smackdown! going on about women's history, what they have had to overcome, etc. just to have him come out and shit all over it, with Carmella getting the last word and furthering the narrative that Ellsworth is her bitch.

Female Edge, basically. Carmella can easily play that part with her current "gimmick" / attitude. it will work and she will have a long reign I bet.

Eh, I've got no real desire to watch it. Glad to hear Lana had a good showing though. I don't like the ending to the Women's MITB, but I hope it leads to Becky beating up Ellsworth. I wouldn't be opposed to Shane taking umbrage with Ellsworth's involvement and Ellsworth acting like he's got one up over Shane and basically stepping out of line -- Ellsworth & Carmella vs. Shane & Becky in an extended squash at SummerSlam or Battleground or whatever.
