I miss the days when we used to discuss what happened on RAW and Smackdown on a weekly basis albeit for a brief period, so with the influx of new members mixed with WC (or back then MD) veterans...I'm gonna try to see if we can get this going again. (On a side note, I'm only going to start with reviewing SD! because my schedule won't allow me to watch RAW until Wednesday)
*MVP is certainly a valuable asset to SD! If he gets drafted to RAW, it'll leave a huge void in SD's upper mid card roster. Not sure where they are going with MVP here but Vicki prooves her worth as a heat magnet...i really hope she loses that wheelchair before the "wedding". Her ass must have its own post code given how she never gets off it
*Hardyvs Bam Bam was decent. It got Bam over as a hard ass and Hardy as a fighter, but it dragged a little for me. I may be in the minority, but Hardy is starting to fall in the category that the only reason he's an internet favourite is for sentimental value. His character hasn't done much recently...unless he's going for the generic champion gimmick
*Michelle vs Layla - Never realised how hot Layla really is before this show...that's about all that i got from this match, although i like how Michelle has managed to learn the heel hook as a finisher...cos then I know when I can start caring about life again
*Kozlov-Noble...liking how the commentators and the match were built to make kozlov look like juggernaught form the x-men. With noble attacking kozlov's head and the commentators saying how a weakness may have been exposed. But in true WWE fashion, consistancy isn't their strong point as Kozlov used a devastating head butt to finish the match....liking the commentary on this match though, with Foley throwing out Sambo facts
*MVP-Kane - decent match but typical of WWE's problem right now in that they are finding difficulty in coming up with matches that we haven't seen before. I went to make pasta when i saw this
*Robinson-Khali...WWE really missed the boat here by giving it away on free TV without any hype. Could have been a wrestlemania headliner if only given the proper build
*DnD explode - don't really care for this at the moment. Although it does proove that WWE could actually have a decent tag division on both shows if they stop breaking teams up over the years
*Finlay vs Miz...the last few segments put me to sleep, although i still had my eyes open. It's a sad state of affairs when one of your challengers for an upcoming PPV for a title is a comedy act. Unless they are building Hornswoggle as a "Title Killer" (remember how the cruiserweight title vanished after he held it?) and are thinking of eliminating the SD tag titles, i see no point in this feud
*Chavo-Batista ...nothing we haven't seen before. But why would edge and vicki put Batista in a match just so that edge could quick count batista out? shouldn't the objective be to hurt batista?
Anyways, overall a very "meh" show. I hope that this "cruise control" mentality of the writers ends after the draft...otherwise i'm going to e-mail wwe creative with a link to the "Be the Booker Forum" where there's actually something entertaining to view.
Any other thoughts from SD viewers this week?
