If only I didn't read the CW title match results, I would say SD looked very good.
I thought they did a great job with Eddie, and making people care about him against Bradshaw at the PPV. Also, the ending with Eddie all fired up sounds awesome.
Taker got to wrestle on TV which at this point is a novelty, so that was good. Not sure about the BT vignettes, but we'll see how they come out on Thurs.
It sounds like Dupree got a major run with the beatdown he put on Cena. I think thats good because it makes Dupree look tough instead of being a French pussy who walks around with a poodle. Adds intensity to the feud, which is again good.
Then you get to the Chavo deal. And its funny, and in this case sad, how one STPUID angle can ruin an otherwise good show. I guess its official they just dont care about the CW title. What so amazing is that Chavo is really over, and instead of capitalizing on that with a series of strong feuds for the CW title they make him look like a joke by losing to a girl. Would they do that with Cena? Would they make Cena lose to say Jazz is she were to show up on SD? Or is Randy Orton in danger of losing the IC title to Torrie (when she replaces Edge) next week on RAW? The answer is of course not, only the CW (which is Latin for joke title) champ gets that treatment. I usually hate to bury an angle before it plays out, but its hard to see how this can turn out good.
The only logical thing I can see out of this, is as someone mentioned make the CW title the new womens title, then maybe Chavo can feud with Cena for the US title. But if Chavo has to work a program with Jackie, well then he's dead in the water, which is so sad. I just hope this isn't punishment for what Chavo Sr did at the Cauliflower Club a while back.
Its so upsetting because there are a ton of other angles that they could have done to waste time. Hell even put a mask on someone like Noble, and then have him accept the challenge as an international superstar, and then beat Chavo. Then he unmasks, and its Noble, and bam you have a feud. Sure its not the greatest, but it blows the Jackie deal out of the water, and doesn't make the CW title look like a joke.
I dont know why these things still shock me.
