Its a shame but at least Bray finally gets a belt. Should have been the World title but at least its a start. He has been without belt for far far too long.

No kidding. Some of these feuds need to end tonight. Corbin needs to win. Win or lose, both Ziggler and Miz need to face new competition. AJ hopefully will move past Ambrose. I like Ambrose but AJ needs to keep the belt for awhile longer.
I would say that Becky needs to move past Alexa but I don't know who she would fight after that. Asuka needs to be on Smackdown.
This PPV feels like a recap episode.

I think Alexa bliss might win and then we'll probably have Nikki bella come in.....
All of the feuds on Smackdown have dwindled down in terms of interest and have been around way too long. Even the thing between Orton and Wyatt - Orton's gonna leave The Wyatts, thats for certain but the feud is overkilled seriously.
No one except the Tag titles are going anywhere to be honest (and even that doesnt seem like its going anywhere with the Wyatts filler feud). |
Please don't restart that Ziggler/Corbin feud. Please! I beg of you!
Man. When the brand split began, Smackdown had so much promise.
Dean lost his edge.
Cena vanished.
AJ has been reduced to fighting James Ellsworth on a regular basis.
Jack Swagger... What the hell ever became of him?
Baron Corbin accomplished a whole bunch of nothing.
Zack Ryder got paired up with Mojo.
I love WWE. I actually loved Survivor Series and a lot of things going on before the split. I just can't figure out how they took all if that potential and all of these hungry young wrestlers and main event stars and killed my excitement. For a while, Smackdown was miles ahead of Raw in my eyes (and your eyes, too. I read this entire thread, today!).
*shakes head*

I think it mostly has to do with the lack of depth and the new PPV schedule, meaning they're really milking every feud to last months. I mean, two of Smackdown's biggest "draft picks" have barely wrestled, if at all, and they appear to have dropped Apollo Crews down the ladder after giving him absolutely nothing to work with.
Meanwhile, all the answers are in NXT but I suppose they're afraid of leaving NXT with nothing. RAW has talented guys they're barely using, even with the hour difference in run-time. I love to see Neville move to Smackdown, for instance.
Voted for the Wyatt Family vs Slater and Rhyno. They are fun but its time to get serious. But seriously in the long run I thought that Smackdown would be in a better situation. They have great shows but Ellsworth vs AJ Styles should never have happened. And the worst part is that it was a monster created by Ambrose need for comedy. I'd like it if Smackdown got steered in a somewhat serious direction and soon.
