SMACKDOWN LIVE SUPERTHREAD

I do find it funny how much free advertising Disney’s ESPN gets on Netflix from the WWE.

Netflix paid 5 billion on WWE rights and WWE spend so much time promoting shows on a rival platform.

Then you have Stephanie McMahon promoting on how to bypass regional rights by using VPN’s.

Back to Italy this week

An odd enough schedule, PLE & Raw in Italy then returning a few days after for SD & 2 House shows

I'm enjoying the Cody/ Sami stuff. Gunther feels like a third wheel. All the momentum he had after retiring AJ/ Cena is long gone. I assume he loses again in this feud and comes out with no direction again and disappears for a few months and them comes back with noting to do.

Last week I thought Solo promo to Jacob made him seem like a babyface. I no idea what were suppose to think now. Do we want Solo to re-join the bloodline and just be another lackey? Or stand up to the bloodline and we get a repeat of that feud that did not set the world on fire.

Attendance not pretty at the London taping tonight going by the pictures floating about

Clashing with the England WC match also.

They were showing the England game after the taping on the big screens.

So do they just ship Johnny in a crate? Gotta wonder in a time of all these cost cutting measures how they justify bringing himm on tour with this gimmick other than having someone for Sami to work off.

When was the last time they announced a couple/marriage like Trick did?

So there are 6 matches on Night of Champions but only half are title matches. And only one of the four main titles. I guess they do have a main women's champ having a match.

Delighted for Sami. Didn't think they'd do it. Shame it happened out there.
