Smackdown sounds miles better than RAW was this week, but cant judge till they get it on TV.

Still, I liked all the booking on the show.

Putting the titles on London/Kidman is a great move and could help bring some life back into that division. With Kidman and London as champs you'll likely get more cruiserweight tag teams, which should result in better matches from the tag team champs. Hopefully they dont take the titles off these guys in a few weeks.

Stripping Cena of the US title is also a smart move. Its good because Cena doesn't have to JOB to one of the mid card guys (which would hurt his push to ME status) and they can get the title on someone like Dupree without hurting Cena. I would guess we'll see a tournament on SD leading up to Summerslam, with the finals likely going down at the PPV. Also, this seems to lead to Cena-Angle instead of Angle-Eddie, which probably means they've decided to go with a 3 way for the WWE title at Summerslam.

I like what they appear to be doing with Haas. Angle doing this "I'm ashamed of you" deal is an interesting angle in the mid card. I wonder if this will lead to a heel turn, maybe even Haas is the one who gets the US title.

I love that they put a random CW 6 man tag on the show. This is how SD can compete with RAW in terms of match quality. Its great because it gives them another good match on the show, and it features more CW contenders which will hopefully make them viable contenders for the CW title.

Heyman deal sounds interesting, and the JBL-Eddie thing is a good carryover to build up to next weeks Cage Match. I hope they put together a really nice package of the JBL-Eddie program, there are enough things to put in a package to make next Tuesday's match seem like a big deal.

So overall things look pretty good this week on SD. If Angle could ever come back as a regular SD might appear to be decent. Good job WWE!
