Another big win for Sheamo, at this rate he's going to be in the main event picture approaching WM season.

Pentecost

Yeah they're giving him a serious, sustained push so it has to be leading somewhere. The crowds usually respond to him too which is always good for someone's long term prospects. He apparently signed a new deal during the summer so he's probably on pretty big money now too

No surprise really, he along with Orton is the most over person on Smackdown.

With Miz and ADR losing this week i'm starting to wonder who is next in line for Punk. Maybe Miz there is 5 weeks to build him up to look somewhat credible. Really hope Christian comes back soon, has anyone got a update on him.

I'd say Kevin Nash or Dolph Ziggler would be the most logical options.

Nash because their previous feud petered out without a PPV match, or Ziggler because he deserves the main event elevation.

Really hope it aint Jericho,Ziggler has earned another crack at the main event.Would be pretty disheartening to see Jericho swan back after playing rockstar and walk into a title feud with Punk.

I was bummed Christian (even though injuried) wasnt on SD this week

A Christian feud with Punk would be awesome though

Did they do anything with the Bellas and the kiss they won a few weeks back?

Nope. Strange it hasn't been mentioned since.

Thought it was a good smackdown. Lots of good wrestlers fighting and loved the backstage bit between Orton and Barratt. The commentators and Bryan himself also used the word "wrestler".

In reaction to the Miz losing, I suppose whoever comes back on January 2nd will fight Punk at the rumble, especially as the promos are always shown first on Raw. Jericho, Undertaker?

My money is definitely on Sheamus for the Royal Rumble win.

I would have preferred if they had kept Bryan V Ziggler as a singles match
