Apparently WWE decided to change the tag line for MitB into something pretty stupid considering what has been going around.

Lame ending to a pretty decent Bryan vs. Corbin match.
|
That might have been the most boring Firefly Fun House segment since Bray started doing them.
Only good part was Bray revealing more why he views Braun as nothing more than just the black sheep of the Wyatt Family. Also this whole Sheamus & Michael Cole storyline has been very stupid. |
Ever since TJP revealed how every WWE match almost always starts with a headlock as one of the first moves, its been one of those things that's been very glaring to notice.
This Mandy vs. Carmella match had a headlock as the first move done. |
Match stunk and cemented that this year's Women's MitB match has the worst line up ever in MitB history.
Asuka Baszler Nia Jax Dana Brooke Lacey Evans Carmella |
:| Forgotten Sons just beat the New Day.
Just like their name, that match was very forgettable. Probably would have dozed off by now had I not been playing Animal Crossing New Horizons this whole time. Show has been completely meaningless soo far. |
:y: Otis in the MitB match.
Outside of Otis beating Ziggy and Sonya's beatdown of Mandy, this week's show was very boring and not worth the time. Seems not even 205 Live will reverse that trend since tonight's episode is Singh Bros themed. NXT Creative managed to take some of the least interesting guys to do spotlight specials on. Quote:

Tbf (note that I haven’t watched any of these 205Live episodes) I don’t think the episodes do much to highlight the individuals they cover, it showcases the their favourite matches.
|
Also, in answer to the OP, I’d be happy with just one thread for Raw/SD/NXT that gets updated weekly. Same for AEW though that does seem to get more responses.
|
Fell asleep earlier and missed the first 15 minutes of this week's show.
Whatever gave might have been good or maybe not going by the Blue Brand's track record in recent weeks. |
Ouch at Morrison's neck from that Poison Rana.
8-man tag match was pretty good even if the match felt like it was just going on and on for the sake of it. Also still a bit drowsy from that nap so the match's long length didn't really help. |
That face-to-face segment between Strowman and Wyatt was pretty terrible.
Maybe the worst one involving Bray's Firefly wacky antics. |
On one hand, this is the best Tamina has been in WWE since ... well its been a very long time.
On the other hand, this feud between Sasha & Bayley and Tamina is still just as uninteresting as the prior feud Sasha & Bayley had with Lacey Evans. SD's women's division is still the worst out of all the women's divisions in WWE. |
Otis needs the Big Show ladder
|
6-man tag match was decent despite the meh ending.
Post-match go-home brawl for MitB was lame. Way too much time was left in the show for that slow assed brawl. SD itself was pretty good this week compared to recent weeks and a better MitB go-home show than RAW's show. Being drowsy for like half the show probably helped a lot. Still had the same problem as almost all of WWE's empty arena shows of not really being worth the time to watch if you missed out though. |
Love me some otis. That fat fck is a throw back to the late 80's and early 90's where you could be fat and still kick ass
|
Imagine being Tucky day in the back watching your tag partner killing it every week on TV. Sonia & Dolph need to take him in, clean up his image and use him as an enforcer.
|
There’s plenty of talents on SD that I like but they’ve managed to make them almost unpalatable to me. Big fan of Cesaro and Nakamura but putting them in Corbin’s orbit makes them so meh for me.
|
Wonder if hardy&sheamus get a match at mitb
|
I know they’ve got guys staying at home but there’s something really missing on SmackDown. I’m struggling to think of any interesting match ups on the “Blue Brand”.
Over on Raw there’s a huge list of combinations I’d like to see. Drew/Seth should be good. Drew vs AJ, vs Andrade, vs Orton, vs Edge, vs Black, vs Lashley even. Styles/Black, Styles/Rollins, Orton/Black, Styles/Edge, I can keep going. Who would you switch around? |
At least the matches on 205 Live this week had guys who are under 205 pounds. I'd like to welcome Dean Malenko and the Ultimo Dragon to 205 Live!
|
Ooooh yea
|
:lol: Otis
|
Miz Tv segment with Otis was pretty good.
Random crew guy deciding to fix one of the chairs right at the end of the segment was odd. |
WalkWithElias
|
Oh you fcked up corbin
|
Db va dg should be great
|
:lol: at Corbin losing via roll up finish.
Elias vs. Corbin was somewhat decent but WWE picked one of the least interesting pairings to kick off this IC tournament. |

Unlike all the other champs on WWE's brands, he was the only one to actually be stripped of his belt as a result. |
Dana duck face

Oh snap ducky wins
|
Outside of Miz TV and Otis backstage stuff, this has been a somewhat dull show soo far at least in terms of ring action.
|
I am watching tonight and it has been a massive dumpster fire
|
OTIS can't find a tag partner to face Miz/Morrison
OTIS TAG PARTNER ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... ....... |
