WWE RAW & SMACKDOWN REACTION
Wednesday, June 27, 2018
Check out my great, good, bad, and pathetic from WWE TV this week.
GREAT
The main event featured a hell of a match with Dolph Ziggler defending his IC title against Seth Rollins. I thought this was fantastic, and although we didn't get a conclusive finish, I have problem with this building to another great match between these two on PPV. Also, the Reigns save and spear of Ziggler was great and it made sense. We all know Roman was in the, so for him to be in the back and not come out and help Rollins would have been stupid.
The tag match with Stroman and KO teaming to face Balor and Corbin was nothing special, but the post match where Stroman ended up destroying Owens car was hilarious. Braun needs to blow something up at least once a month.
GOOD
As bad as I thought the talking segment between Lashley and Roman was last week, this week was like night and day. Very good job by Lashley delivering a promo that was believable and set up a match up between the two that I actually want to see now. I'm also glad they dropped the plan for yet another multi man match for a shot at Lesnar.
I always love a good squash match to highlight performers you want to push as special and that is exactly what AOP needed, after weeks of being gone from TV.
BAD
Please explain this to me. Ronda destroys Alexa last week and puts her through a table, laying er out cold to put over a serious angle. THE NEXT WEEK, Alexa is out there not selling a damn thing and then dominates Natalia for the majority of a bad match. Then loses due to cheating by Nia, and we are supposed to wonder why Alexa is more over all the women. She gets booked like shes HHH in 2003!!!!
Sure, its supposed to be comedy. But this shit is not funny and its repetitive. Go away.
PATHETIC
Please, read my article on how this company has killed the women's revolution. (Here) After this shit I saw on Monday, I could write a book. Who is supposed to be the babyface and who is supposed to be the heel? This is a travesty how they have sabotaged Sasha Banks. Completely and utterly a travesty. Watch what happens next week, WHEN THEY SEND THEM TO THERAPY AFTER BAYLEY JUST DESTROYED HER!!!!! Its fucking Pathetic.
GREAT
A solid addition of Smackdown was capped off by the reunion of Team Hell No, which I thought was pretty well down. Something to do until Bryan faces Miz at Summerslam.
GOOD
The actual match between the Uso's &Jeff Hardy vs Sanity was pretty good and had some hot action. The Uso's did need to get some heat back after the beat down last week. I don't like Sanity losing their first match though.
Rusev is challenging AJ Styles for the title at Extreme Rules, so getting a TV win was good for him. i thought the match could've been better but it was still good. I like Rusev and I'm glad he's finally getting a nice showcase program for the championship.
BAD
This whole Ellsworth and Carmella bullshit is a disgrace to the women's division. It's a damn shame really. Now we are booking man vs woman in 2018.
Jeff Hardy needs to drop the U.S title ASAP, and take some time off to heal. He really looks bad and physically its bringing match quality down alot. It made Eric Young, who is great worker, look like he did something wrong, when it was Hardy's fault because he's hurting. I know they want his star power, but sideline him and let him heal.
This was the best you cold come up with to do with the cast of Glow? Horrible.
PATHETIC
