    Cena returns to partner KO tonight



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,213 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Definitely going to tune live for it

    They know how to market 'the Special attractions' at the right time of year

    Could we finally see the 'Cena Heel Turn' which leads too a mania match with KO ?

    So Is Uncle Howdy the evil side of Bray Wyatt who attacks him each time he becomes aggressive

    Charlotte is back

    Queen Charlotte reigns supreme once more with a devastating rollup



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,420 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Really fun Smackdown to end the year with a lot of good stuff.

    Mixed feelings on Charlotte, glad she's back as the division needs a boost but making her champ straight away, I dunno. Glad Ronda isn't champ (although her match this week was her best in a while) but worried Charlotte is just going to be fed everyone, we'll see.

    Uncle Howdy stuff was better than the other week but Jesus a Pitch Black match sponsored by Mountain Dew, way to ruin any mystique. LA Knight is such a damn star, hope depending how this goes he isn't tarnished. Thought the Solo/Sheamus match was good and interesting to see how the tag match goes.

    Main event was fun and the most Cena match ever to show up, shout your spots and do 5 moves. Gas but the crowd loved it and it was nice seeing Cena back, wonder if we'll see him at the Rumble (probably not). Also on a minor note, their tribute to Don West was a nice gesture.

    I mean Cena has always been a complete disaster when calling stuff in the ring. Yes, we know it happens but it’s the blatant nature when cena does it, it takes me out of the match.

    It might work if it's Bo Dallas

    Still think it will end up a bit of a farce with it been 'Bray Wyatt' or some other bollocks



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,493 ✭✭✭Cotts72


    Could be vincent



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,241 ✭✭✭✭hynesie08


    Firing Bray Wyatt for being an out of shape ratings vacuum with no idea how to translate his brain Worms to tv only to rehire him for the exact same reason must have been triple h's attempt to kill Vince off, because nobody with 2 braincells to rub together is actually enjoying this.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,944 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    This Uncle Howdy stuff is pure "wrestlecrap". And not in the daft but enjoyable way. I don't care who he is or what his intentions for Bray are. I respect that Wyatt tries to come up with this stuff but it just doesn't work. I was tired anyway but I switched off after that.

    Honestly, I love the “wrestlecrap” stuff. I don’t watch Smackdown, really, but I’ll watch the Wyatt stuff every week. It’s nonsense and makes no sense, but I still am interested it in more than most of the other stuff they make. It’s professional wrestling at it’s purest.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,030 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    What was the point of that title switch with Charlotte? If it was to boost ratings they would've advertised her being there or use it to set up a match. But the whole thing didn't make sense. Was it even officially sanctioned outside of the usual champ being able to setup matches? And way to build future talent? If they wanted the title off Ronda, give it to Raquel and see how she gets on. Then have Charlotte beat her if it doesn't work. Or even as a grudge match, Charlotte comes out to attack Ronda in a post match beatdown which lets Raquel feud someone else while Ronda feuds with Charlotte. 2 separate women's stories instead of wrapping 2 stories into the title picture.

    Jimmy Uso and Jey Uso vs. Drew McIntyre and Sheamus for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Titles

    Ricochet vs. Top Dolla in a men’s Royal Rumble match qualifier



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,030 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    Heel turn for Hit Row. Probably for the best. Has Top Dolla lost a lot of weight?

    I know what they were chanting but why were they chanting "Whoop that trick" at Sonya? Tried googling but any results just say what they were chanting and what it's from.

    So either Sami loses next week or there will be shenanigans involved.

    Roman vs KO is going to be awesome

    Wonder will they go with Sami as special ref ??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,420 ✭✭✭ThePott


    Well it didn't look like there was much change at least with Vince around, thank god.

    Top Dolla did lose a serious amount of weight alright, I think a heel turn was called for alright. Hit Row got pretty stale pretty quick, think they should get a new member to lead them in the way Swerve did.

    Can't believe Charlotte is getting such good reactions, decent match too tbf. Main event was great and the Roman/Sami dynamic is still interesting. Think we could see something interesting alright at the Royal Rumble match if Sami gets roped into it.

    Drew an honorary brute



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,213 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,037 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    Sheamus is quite over so perhaps Drew freshen him up even though I'd like them as a tag team for a while

    Kross seems to have forgot he was also going after Roman on his SD debut now he is after Rey



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,213 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Enjoyed Gunther vs Braun although the end was weak and looked botched. definitely should do Brock vs Gunther at mania (could start it at the rumble)

    Would Sami be a face or heel if he turns on Roman ??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91,037 ✭✭✭✭JP Liz V1


    What the hell was Charlotte wearing, a pink condom and is Sonya fed to all returnees

    Viking Raiders with 'Dem Boys' armbands is a nice touch.
