Was a great show. I didn't read the spoilers, so I was pleasantly surprised by a lot. Man, can CM Punk talk -- the guy has been reminding me lately of why he is such an internet darling. He managed to make me entertained by a match involving Big Show. He also looked credible against The Undertaker, and it was bad-ass (and made sense given the storyline) that he told Luke Gallows & Joey Mercury to go to the back.
Alberto Del Rio continues to entertain me. Something's got to happen with him eventually, but I like Christian being involved in a program with someone. Del Rio is hurting all Christian's friends, and Christian wants to get him in the ring while Del Rio keeps ducking him. It's so simple, but it works. I hope they manage to make Christian look like a star even while putting Del Rio over. So far, so good. Jack Swagger and MVP's feud is still sort of just there, but their match was good, if the ending sort of came out of nowhere. Swagger is just amazing, though. Something needs to happen with him, though. Even if it's just a move to RAW when they jump to SyFy. Even though he is over, I feel that a heel turn for MVP would be beneficial, too. The Kaval/Drew McIntyre match was really fucking good. People bitch about Drew, but sincerely, his work has been right up there recently. Like, he consistently has something resembling the match of the night no matter who he is working with. Kaval didn't look like a bitch, either -- plus he has that guaranteed title shot. I actually think a loss for McIntyre here would have been more damaging to him than Kaval losing to McIntyre was. Kofi Kingston & Chris Masters vs. Dolph Ziggler & Chavo Guerrero was weird. Not bad, just weird. It even goes down to Kaitlyn being a hot, but a weird hot. I like seeing Chavo on SmackDown!, even though he didn't really do much. Thank you, Michael Hayes, for making him matter again. I also have an unexplained soft spot for Masters. I'd like to see him do something, and an associated win with Kofi Kingston is only good for him. For some reason, all I could think about during the Chavo/Ziggler vs. Kofi/Masters tag match, was what sort of drama is Ziggler going to get into with Vickie Guerrero? I could see them doing an angle where Ziggler cheats with Kaitlyn, or Chavo turns on Ziggler -- I dunno, but those thoughts actually kept me more occupied than the match. |

That segment this past week was nothing short of embarrassing. I dunno what WWE's problem with Big Show is? They just seem to keep cycling between "Big, Bad Monster" and "Happy-Go-Lucky, Gentle Giant". The latter makes me buy the former less and less. |

Nope. I'll have to go check it out.
