July 16, 20196 yr Author comment_5893885 That's fair and all, but I guess that since they've propelled Drew up to a certain point but don't have clear plans for him, having him take the fall in order to push someone new isn't that bad. Give Cedric credit, he has more flair than Tony Nese will ever have. But yeah, Murphy is probably a top 10 talent in the company, which is crazy when you look back at his tag team days.

That may be the case now, but look at the three month period after Mania. Feuding with Corbin for months on end right after your coronation would kill anybody out the gate. It doesn't matter if it's Seth, Roman, or Bruno Sammartino. Also, I think Rollins/Lesnar in a straight singles match has serious potential. Since Suplex City became a thing, Brock's best matches have been against smaller opponents who can fly around and bump big. That's Seth to a T. It should be at least as good as Balor/Lesnar. And Lord knows nobody in their right mind wants to see yet another installment of Reigns/Lesnar. They knocked it out of the park in their first meeting, but saying they experienced diminishing returns would be a gross understatement. I would also add that I get the impression Roman has largely checked out mentally and will be joining Dwayne in Hollywood once his contract is up.

July 17, 20196 yr comment_5893897 - It was believed that new WWE SmackDown Executive Director Eric Bischoff would begin working his new behind-the-scenes role beginning with tonight's post-Extreme Rules edition of the show, but Dave Meltzer reported on F4Wonline.com that Bischoff is not backstage for tonight's SmackDown episode from Worcester, MA.
July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893898 On the other hand, Wyatt vs Finn did not happen because Bray had the plague. It led to AJ vs Finn, which led to Styles getting a WWE Title run. Cannot wait for a repeat of that situation.
July 17, 20196 yr comment_5893902 Yup, that was as awkward and "meh" as expected. Can we get to D-Bry's promo soon please?
July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893903 This was fun! Lots of people had time to talk, and it was different!
July 17, 20196 yr comment_5893905 Glad The Usos weren't part of the town hall at least. They would've shit up further by forcing their obnoxious characters and shitty "WELCOME TO THE UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSOOOOOO PENI-TEN-TIARY!!!" catchphrase. Black vs. Cesaro means nothing to me. "Good rasslin'" never does when there's no point to it. Either Black wins again, giving Cesaro two straight losses, or Cesaro wins, cutting Black off at the knees with dreaded 50-50 booking. Both lose either way. This company sucks.
July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893906 Black is smoking Cesaro with the Black Mass. Twice in a row, now. Also twice in a row they've had a very good match together. Wish Sheamus was healthy, because him vs Black would be fucking amazing.
July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893907 Good showing by LIV MORGAN, but Charlotte would never come back after being missing and lose.

July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893912 Orton is still over. He doesn't have to put any effort whatsoever into his matches. What a legend.
July 17, 20196 yr Author comment_5893914 SmackDown was great. Advanced tons of storylines, had a very fast pace and put some new people in the spotlight.
July 17, 20196 yr comment_5893915 Thought/hoped Sonya Deville would finally get some sort of push a few weeks ago. That went nowhere fast.
