SmackDown Live - 10/23/18 - Styles & Bryan v. The Usos DAY TWO ISH
Kinda excited to be watching live for the first time in a while. Last night was an emotional roller coaster. Hopefully this show is similar without and completely awful news. Also, hoping for some Almas and Vega action tonight.

I think I might honestly like the Big Show as the enforcer for The Bar. As long as he doesn't wrestle too often.

Did that guy with the "We Want Women's Tag Champions" sign make the drive from Providence?
Could've swore I saw that same sign last night in that same spot. |

I'm glad new day openly acknowledges Big Show's random and numerous heel turns

Well that was a waste of time. Wonder how long before WWE gets tired of pushing Big Show as a monster again.

Big Show, Cesaro, Sheamus.
I'm down with this. They'll fill that void the Bludgeon Bros. left for a little while. |

Anyway, Big Show is fine in an enforcer role. I've never liked when he's just been feuding with one person alone, though.

Huh.
I'd figure the tag rematch would be the main event. |

So Big Show is a part of The Bar now? Interesting.

Are they really doing another Usos vs. Styles/Bryan tag? I love how they send SmackDown live and then do a roster split so they can get ratings up, but then just run a repeat anyway.
I partially kid -- I'm sure the match will be good, will evolve from last week's and lead to Styles knocking down Bryan this time for manufactured drama. But this is not a new thing. It's just one of those tropes the company has. |

Keep in mind Road Dogg is calling the shots these days. It hasn't been the same for quite some time since it went live. With, maybe, last week being an exception. |

Did they really need to add mood music to Roman's announcement it's already super sad they should just let it stand on its own as a very somber moment.

According to PWTorch, that speech by Reigns last night wasn't prepared or known ahead of time by almost everyone backstage and in Creative. Pretty much only a few people at most knew what was happening and kept everyone else in the dark to the point Reigns was meant to give a different promo instead.

Knowing what happened last night, last thing either Uso needs is to win a match in honor of Reigns.
Guess on the bright side, if the Usos do split up, it would become a lot easier to tell them apart. |

I wonder if that'll make the Usos number one contenders, even though they've already had multiple matches with both The Bar and The New Day.

Bryan has been losing a lot ever since he unretired. Like his biggest win since coming back was that quick fluke over The Miz to be #1 contender.

What is the WWE not realize how laughable the notion of Nikki Bella being remotely a threat to Rousey is?
