Damien Sandow came out and called Cena a false champion and vowed to take the title from him. Cody Rhodes and Goldust came out, which led to Vickie Guerrero making a six man tag for tonight.

*The Shield cut a promo saying they are sick of the Usos. They said they can beat any team and they will prove it tonight.

Big E Langston comes out and stands at ringside for The Usos. The Usos end up getting the win clean by pinfall.

After the match, Big E has a staredown with The Shield, mainly Roman Reigns, until they retreat through the crowd.

* There's a segment with Dolph Ziggler trying to sell WWE Shop merchandise.

* Erick Rowan and Luke Harper vs. Darren Young and Titus O'Neil is up next. Harper and Rowan dominate and manhandle Young early on. Wyatts get the win. After the match, Bray Wyatt comes in the ring and hits Young with a nasty looking Sister Abigail.

* MizTV with The Miz is up next. New WWE Champion Randy Orton is the special guest. Right in the middle of a question, Orton lays The Miz out with a RKO and smiles.

The Bella Twins and Natalya defeated AJ Lee, Tamina Snuka and Alicia Fox when Natalya made AJ tap to the Sharpshooter.

Sandow still in the mix and quite the claim about the main event.

Didnt Natalya just lose to Summer Rae and now she is making the Champion tap out? Why not have Alicia tap out instead?

Why didn't Kane exact revenge from the Wyatts upon his return?

Don't ask questions it is WWE.

He put his back out trying (and failing) to lift Harper :pac:

Besides, he went after Miz. Not even Miz likes Miz.

Let's see just how good of a seller Ziggler really is! :cool:

To be fair, there isn't a whole lot else they can do with them as a trio. A split could allow them to excel in singles action.

Angron

I'd like to see Rollins get a lash at singles in particular.

SimonQuinlank

Reigns is where the money is.

Dolph trying to sell merch sounds like car crash TV.

gnfnrhead

We've had Rollins and Reigns so I may as well go for Ambrose :pac:

All three of them are capable of big things. WHC at least, not sure about WWE for Rollins.

Like the PTP on RAW it was a segment that looked like desperation to get people shopping, leave it for the App during the commercial breaks next time WWE.

Well Ambrose has had a decent amount of 1 v 1 stuff cause he's the US champ, while the other two have been teaming either together or with Ambrose for the most part. I'm still not that fond of Reigns, but I'd love to see Rollins solo.

I have no doubt that Ambrose can, and really should, do well for himself.

JP Liz V1

I'd love to see a feud between Ambrose and Rollins

CSF

Dunno if I'm alone in this, but I see no reason for the Shield to go their separate ways, at least not yet.

riffmongous

I'd worry that there isn't really enough space at the moment on the roster for 3 more single guys at once

DM_7

I agree, no need to split them up. I would rather see them turn on Triple H for not looking after them and putting them in bad situations or maybe even pick up a feud with Taker.

Also with Mania season coming up no way the three of them will get good feuds and only end up down the card. Lets say only Ambrose got a good feud, falling down the card from December to May could really damage the other two and see them lose the aura of being important that they have collectively.

Best to split them in May/June so they get six good months to be established as singles guys and be able to bring momentum into the Mania season.

I always assumed they'd be feuding with the Wyatts come Mania season. It doesn't interest me that much, but that is how I saw it going.

Mr.Nice Guy

This sounds like a good show. I wonder if they will treat Smackdown a bit more seriously if Cena is going to be on it.

I like the sound of Langston taking on The Shield. Question for those who watch NXT - was there ever a moment where Langston came out to confront The Shield guys? I have it in my head that around the time Rollins was NXT champ there was a moment where The Shield were running amok and Langston's music hit and he came out to confront them. I'm not at all sure if this happened or I imagined it.

DM_7

Yep it happened. Shield interrupted a Rollins match with Corey Graves, took out whole roster as well, then Big E arrived, and when he went to enter ring the Shield left.

He also beat Rollins for the NXT championship in a no DQ match, rest of Shield interfered but NXT roster came out to stop them.

Good stuff. I was looking for this on Youtube and couldn't find it. I seem to recall it was a great moment.

No Boogeyman appearance for Halloween. Boo!

This the greatest thing of the 21st Century.

CastorTroy

And Cena is really overemphasising his title as not being as important as the WWE title. Saying "The World Heavyweight champ is here" and also implying Smackdown isn;t as important as RAW by making out it's a privilege for Smackdown to have him.

Or maybe I'm taking it the wrong way.

rovert

Haven't seen Smackdown yet you could be right but ultimately he is only telling the truth. The title hasn't headlined a PPV in yonks. After the earning call this week it is fairly obvious Cena isn't there to just boost "Smackdown"/B team house shows but to prompt up Smackdown's ratings while WWE is discussing rights fees.

BohsJohnny

The six man is very good i would love a long Cesaro vs Cena match.

GTR63

Any time I see Cena in that shirt I hum the Pink Panter theme. Dud-un, Dad-un, Dadun.....

GTR63

Valentine vs Beefcake, what an absolutely awful match to put on. That was in the vault for a reason, did I miss Dolph shilling me the merch on sale btw?
Nice to see the banned from WWE forever Big Show advertised for the Irish tour

eass82

Damn i loved Miz TV tonight. Orton laying it out that no one gives a damn about Miz, that the crowd cheered him on as he pummeled Miz in his home town - and then an RKO to shut Miz up.

I thought Orton was supposed to be heel?!

rovert

The main event was just average by Smackdown six man standards. Will make you want to a Cesaro-Cena match (again?) though.

Pretty good idea, really. It'd also be perfect conduit to the face-turn the 'E seem to be teasing with the emphasis on Cesaro's 'Big Swing.' Well, that and the quality of Cena/Cesaro is likely to be mind-blowing.
