smackdown wouldn't be able to put up a show every week if the roster stayed like this
Seraphis Cain
bad gameplay lol
Pretty sure he said that before he knew about Shibata having surgery, though. He doesn't think it's an angle anymore.

Finally up to the main event of mania (had a busy week). Roman cocking his fist is so lame, I actually don't mind punching the ground as part of the entrance but the fist cocking has to go.

And you can bet your ass Bryan would not allow him to hold back, I mean, not like Shibata would ever do such a thing.
It's a recipe for disaster, really.

Miz is a loss for Smackdown but at least it means he can save locking horns with Bryan for another time. I'm really hoping they let Nak V. AJ have the slowest of burns, they know they can milk that shit.
Jinder vs Ishii when?Jinder did this on a fucking house show:

According to Meltzer : Apparently today JBL blocked anyone he could see who tweeted support for Mauro and anyone that was following both him and Mauro...
JBL is fucking nuts.

And you know that there would be enough blood thirsty fans to watch it happen and cheer it on and encourage Bryan to do it.
Someone sent Mauro a video of Bart Gunn knocking out JBL and Mauro replied: Loved it when it first happened. Love it even more now. *Fistbump emoji*

Smackdown will just be Ziggler and the violin player

Any word on what JR's role is going forward? I hope it's not just calling PPV main events. He is the best at getting people over without getting in the way of things. With all the drama going on the announce teams could do with a shake up.

who could they get for heel commentary to replace JBL btw? Graves is busy with RAW.
Percy Watson getting that call up to become heel announcer daddeeeeeh!

Corino could give it a go I guess.
I feel like hearing JBL tomorrow is going to piss me off too much to enjoy the shit.

i like how we're entertaining this idea as if they would ever fire that bum Bradshaw

I'm still a little scared of losing AJ on smackdown, he's not safe until the show ends and he says he's there to stay.

Pretty sure no one else is going to Raw... this year it's just guys show up and say I'm here now. So tonight will be Smackdown's turn

Indeed.
It does suck we lost Miz, it really does. Smackdown Live and Talking Shoot really felt like the AJ and Miz show and it was great. Felt like the little engine that could.

Losing Bliss on Talking Smacks sucks too for that show

will be great hearing the new day without their boring and wack catchphrases. i think they could possibly pick up the slack with miz gone on talking smack.

we didn't get a single raw star going to smackdown in the last raw,why would we get smackdown people going to raw on smackdown?
especially sicne the roster is now already barebone
As a BIG SURPRISE LAST MINUTE TRADE
I don't know why people try and apply sense to WWE

Smackdown wins the main event scene with aj and nakamura, please keep Roman away when he decides to resurrect.
So smackdown is missing a championship now? I missed what happened yesterday after 10,I assume they're sending ko over?

How long until smart fans start heeling on JBL at tapings and chanting "Mauro" and "Bully" at him?
Because this fucking ingrate deserves it.
This superstar shakeup was really underwhelming. The presentation was off and besides Bliss nobody even felt important. And why take away Wyatt when he is in the middle of a feud?
The brand split doesn't exist that long that Ambrose showing up seems that big of a deal.
Losing Miz is a bummer, I feel he was ready to jump to the main event scene on Smackdown and now his ceeling is the IC belt.
At least AJ didn't go to Raw and hopefully Roman stays there.
Also, having Lesnar with the title kills the main event scene one again.
Braun looks awesome, I hope he does come to Smackdown.

And even Bliss didn't end up being the star of her segment
That was bad. She came to a great reaction and then Mickie and Nia had to come up. Nia could've appeare and acted like a body guard or whatever but I don't get why Mickie James had to come. She also got no reaction.

Mickie's return has been pretty much a bust since her partnership with Alexa ended. Her heading over to Raw means fuck all. I hated it because it should have been Bliss' time to shine and she was killing it until James showed up.

That segment is a good microcosm of the problems with WWE bookings. You have a young and talented up and comer who really has been coming into their own in Alex Bliss who is getting over naturally and they have a great opportunity here to highlight her and give her a huge moment to shine but then kneecap her due to Vince's fetish for putting over older part timers and green as shit relatives of Dwayne.

I mean at least they had Bliss be the only not squashed by Nia
But agreed 100%
That free week of Sling TV was worth it.

yeah I got a dirctv now trial. Sling and vue the weeks prior.
Unless I can cycle through them all again with a different email, no more live raw/smackdown. I have hulu tho.

Jinder did this on a fucking house show:
Okay?
As I said, stiff work is stiff. That's a regular day at the office in the 80s.
We're in 2017.
Dude WWF 80s house shows were soft as fuck no bump affairs I'm not sure what you are talking about

Fuck no. They already have a pretty but totally shit in the ring blonde on Smackdown in Carmella. Send Emma over so they have at least 3 great workers in Emma, and my two Queens Becky and Charlotte. Keep Dana Brooke over on raw to. We need sacrificial jobber lambs to feed to Nia "Botches so bad she is going to kill someone soon" Jax

Outside of when he's booked strong Braun doesn't do anything for me as a performer. For all intensive purposes they could have had Big Show flip the ambulance last night and it would have been just as good.
