Tuning in for Smackdown tonight, since Alvarez made it sound like some cool stuff went down.

It's surreal to see Reigns just sitting in a chair for an interview, after always spearing dudes, giving Shield promos backstage and generally wrecking stuff.

Renaissance Spam posted:I think it has more to do with the fact that Stewart likes referencing WWE any chance he can (for good or ill) and they're trying to cash in on that. Yeah, I can't really blame them in their shoes. It's easy to forget that outside the wrestling bubble people generally don't care about pro wrestling or view it with disdain. It's pretty much like a small town restaurant getting a review from a major food critic, and then of course they'll encourage that critic to come again and talk up the critic whenever possible.

Alvarez also said the crowd was crazy hot at this smackdown, and that the place was packed except for the upper ring with like 9-10k people there. Hopefully all of the crowd noise is authentic this time. Good lord, Cesaro really needs new music.

Jerusalem posted:WWE doesn't come to Seattle all that often, right? I don't know for sure, but yeah I don't think it's as often as other major places. Probably just a shade less often than WWE comes to Detroit. The past few times have been great because they would cheer nonstop for Daniel Bryan and chant Yes through basically the whole show. Nice suplex from Cesaro there too, haven't seen that before.

Wrestlers are incredibly tough dudes. I hit my knee or leg lightly on something and I'm doubled over for a few minutes, meanwhile dudes are falling 10-15 feet on a regular basis onto very thin padding outside the ring.

AHH that DDT looked like death! Just a huge rear end BOOM sound when they hit the ring, never heard that before.

I'm looking forward to the Authority having bribed some of the lumberjacks, or for Kane to be one of the lumberjacks and have him intimidate the other guys into not touching Rollins.

Fun fact, at the live show there was a pretty bad Mark Henry/Luke Harper singles match first, and then it led to Henry/Show vs. Wyatts.

The kid's singing doesn't bother me much, but then I don't listen to much music and am generally pretty tone deaf.

fatherdog posted:That's actually a pretty cool double-finisher. As finishing moves go, WSS and WMD are both rarely kicked out of too, so being hit by both back to back should be able to beat anyone.

Push Eva Marie and Heath Slater. Eva is leaving her poor extensions behind. Also, ban the Paige Turner please! Poor AJ fell right on the back of her head there.

I'm more pissed that the Paige Turner is so drat hard for people to hit right, is risker than most finishing moves to the person taking it, and doesn't look amazing enough to justify its use. It's not like Paige can't learn a different move, and most divas don't have finishers anyway so there's a lot of moves to choose from. She has the PTO as an alternative right now anyway, for goodness sake!

Hmm, I guess Punk is at least being acknowledged now on WWE, since they just plugged the Best Vs. Beast match as available on the Network. If Punk wants to come back, surprise RR entrant/winner is probably the best way possible, and doing it at the 2015 Rumble would be best before he loses name recognition. I'm fine with him staying retired though.

Decent enough Smackdown, not quite as good as I was hoping though. Geeze Reigns can jump though.
