WWE SMACKDOWN REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS We came into this week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown still curious about some of the details related to “TRIBAL COMBAT.” We know it’s a No DQ, Anything Goes match where Roman Reigns will defend the WWE Universal championship AND his status as Tribal Chief against Jey Uso at SummerSlam next week. What else is there to it? Why did Reigns prevent Solo Sikoa from attacking Jey last week? Instead, what we got was Jey opening the show, Roman getting terribly upset about it, and more accusations that Jey wants to be the new Tribal Chief. Power hungry and all that. But no. Jey never wanted that, and he was content being the right hand man because he believed in the cause. He believed in Reigns. But Reigns broke the family, and then he broke Jimmy, and now Jey has to get him. That’s just what has to happen now. It’s his fault. Reigns, ever the gaslighter, tried to turn it around and claim that, well, actually, it’s Jey’s fault and he screwed over his own brother Jimmy. Also, he never would have been in the position he was in if Jimmy wasn’t hurt. So after SummerSlam, he’s done. Completely out of the picture. Reigns was perfectly foul here, the obnoxiously powerful leader no one wants but everyone has to deal with. He knows he’s going to win, and he can’t stand the idea that anyone could possibly think otherwise. Why would Jey even think he has a chance? “It’s because I already beat you. I pinned you.” Damn right he did. This was everything it needed to be. Jey did nothing but speak the truth, and Reigns has never looked so uneasy about it. They’re working hard to get us to buy in again. And damn it, it’s working. Shortly after all this, Grayson Waller decided to rub elbows with Jey backstage and he got punched in the mouth for it. It was glorious all on its own, but of course it was a setup for a match later. Jey won that match, of course. Right in front of Reigns, who then sent Sikoa in after him. Solo got dealt with so Roman himself jumped in and he ate a spear. HUGE pop for all of this, by the way. The people want Jey Uso to be the guy who dethrones Roman Reigns so very, very much. It’s not going to happen, and there are plenty of reasons for that, all of which make perfectly good sense. But that isn’t going to stop any of us from hoping for it, and being so crushingly disappointed when we don’t get it. Sure enough, the show ended with Sikoa and Reigns eventually getting the better of Jey, and leaving everyone hoping that won’t be the scene next Saturday night. Even though we all know it will. Sigh. I’m going to hope anyway. Your LA Knight segment of the week: Hit Row once again showed up just to be the crew Knight got to run down before running through and I ain’t mad about it one bit. Knight called Top Dolla Uncle Phil from the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, then beat Ashante Adonis in a singles match with no issue. Notably, Michael Cole was laughing like an idiot in that fake way he does when they really want to get someone over. This is a very good sign for the future of L. A. Knight. YEAH. Later in the night, he campaigned to be added to a battle royal match that will take place at SummerSlam and Adam Pearce agreed. He will indeed be on the card at Ford Field and I can’t imagine just how loud that place is going to be when his music hits. All the rest Santos Escobar defeated Rey Mysterio to earn a shot at Austin Theory and the United States championship. Well, the match was stopped due to injury, as Mysterio appeared to hit his head hard on the floor taking a bump on the outside. They simply announced he could not continue and Escobar was declared the winner. He appeared fine after this, hugging Escobar and endorsing him, but it absolutely looked like his head hit pretty damn hard. Assuming this was a legitimate stoppage, I would commend WWE for doing it. I would far prefer safety measures like this, especially when it comes to head injuries. If it was a work, well, it was a pretty damn good one but I’d rather they not work injuries like this unless it also acts as a way to set up for potential stoppages when it needs to happen for a legit injury in the future. Bobby Lashley is indeed taking The Street Profits under his wing, calling them major players and big stars who need to present themselves as such. That means new suits. They were more than happy to oblige him. It’s worth noting he also said Trick Williams and Carmelo Hayes spoke highly of Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins, so we may very well be looking at a full blown faction at some point. With five members like this, how could it ever go wrong? Charlotte Flair and Bianca Belair responded to some trash talk by new Women’s Tag Team Champions Sonya Deville & Chelsea Green by teaming up to wrestle the duo in a match. It was your standard “they wrestle for the title soon, let’s see if they can co-exist as teammates” type of deal. They couldn’t, but they won the match anyway. Bayley and Iyo Sky had a bit of an argument but they appear to be remaining on the same page for now. Meanwhile, Shotzi is still terrorizing Bayley like The Riddler from Batman Forever back in 1995 and shit. But also Asuka showed up to get in Sky’s face, and we got the weekly reminder that the Money in the Bank contract looms large over everything. Karl Anderson really wanted to go it solo against Karrion Kross, telling the rest of The O.C. to hang back and let him handle things. He was soundly beaten in short order and needed to be saved by them post-match. Tough scenes for Anderson, but Kross is building some momentum, finally. It should be pointed out Grayson Waller was once again very publicly making reference to The Rock, even doing so during a match against Jey Uso with Roman Reigns watching. I don’t know if it’s going anywhere, but it would be kinda weird if it didn’t at this point. This was a good show. Grade: B- |

WWE NXT REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS Accident Murderers Is Trick Williams a liability? That’s the question on my mind after NXT’s go home show. During the six-man tag between the aforementioned Trick, Carmelo Hayes, & Ilja Dragunov and The Schism ended controversial. Ilja accidentally launched himself into Trick and almost severely injured him. Melo got in his feelings a bit but let it go because they got the W and because their upcoming match provides the opportunity for some payback. But Trick wanted his vengeance. He ignored Melo’s pleas for professionalism while Ilja told Melo “nah” when the champ indirectly asked him for a little mercy on this one. But Ilja also commended Melo’s brotherhood with Trick. That, combined with Melo’s new perspective with that championship on his shoulder got me thinking that maybe these two aren’t reading the same sheet music anymore. Or maybe it’s not different music but different verses for the same song. They underlined that fact before the show ended because Trick called out Ilja. He’s a man of his word. Trick got the upperhand but it didn’t last long. Who expected anything less? Trick sold the beatdown pretty well and looked lifeless towards the end. He made Ilja look like a vicious killer who only knows one speed. It got pretty brutal after a while and even felt like overkill. But right when I told them to end it, Ilja propped up Trick’s lifeless body in the corner. He went for the final blow but Melo emerged out of nowhere and sacrificed himself for his friend. Ilja got on the mic and commended Melo for his loyalty and called him a good man. He once again spoke glowingly about Trick Melo gang but told Melo to hold on to that friendship because the championship is his. Now, I don’t think loyalty makes their friendship a liability. But I do know that’s not how Melo planned entering the Bash. Whatever momentum he got from winning that tag match went away the second Ilja knocked him out cold. And the only reason he ate mat when the show went to black? Trick. Perhaps Melo begging his friend for professionalism had more to do with protecting Trick than anything else, but how long can one do that? How long can he keep stepping in front of shots meant for his friend? Melo isn’t the same cat who held that North American championship but Trick remains Trick. If they don’t break up any time soon—and I hope they don't—we at least have seeds sown if they ever go that route. It’s also possible Trick complicates the upcoming championship match. If that happens, then the brown stuff hits the fan. B-Sides Show Me What You Got Rhea Ripley likes Lyra Valkyria. And Rhea doesn’t like many people. She showed just how much Lyra disappointed her with a loss a few weeks ago, and the two finally wrestled this week in a match built around the master pushing the student. Rhea wanted proof she bet on the right horse. Well, Lyra definitely showed her something. Lyra got in a remarkable amount of offense considering Rhea’s recent matches. That in itself proved Lyra’s worth. There’s never shame losing to the champ, especially the way Lyra went down. She almost got the job done in a hellacious match. Lyra looked great here, although I imagine looking bad against Rhea is impossible right now. We didn’t get a lot of great wrestling this week but this match proved the exception. Danger Zone They really don’t know what to do with Bron Breakker do they? After Von Wagner disrupted Big Body Javi’s existence rather quickly, Bron surprised the big man with an incredible Spear. So now it’s Bron vs. Von? Besides the fact that rhymes, I don’t see the point. Just send Bron to the main roster already. He’s a dangerous man in NXT but it’s a pond for him when he deserves an ocean. My Name Is Hi, kids, do you like violence? Then watching Cora Jade & Dana Brooke pull splinters out each one of their eyelids is for you. I enjoyed this Kendo Stick match quite a bit. Who doesn’t enjoy a chaotic anything goes match? Kelani Jordan added a wrinkle since she assisted Dana at several junctures. Together-ish, they took down NXT’s mean girl. That makes me wonder if there’s something bigger for Dana or Kelani down the line. Suckas Need Bodyguards Bronco Lima & Lucien Price picked a fight with Tony D’Angelo & Stacks. They had a match but I’m not going there yet. I want to talk about this new angle for Reggie, who apparently hails from the streets now. Only people from the hood can call him “Scrypts,” which includes Booker T. Now I have no issue with this idea in general, but with Reggie? The former sommelier? The guy who then dressed up like a superhero? And the guy who married Dana Brooke for five minutes? Le sigh. I don’t buy it and will never get my wallet out my back pocket for this cause. The match itself felt serviceable. Bronco & Lucien definitely work well together but I never thought they had a shot against The Family. Especially after Axiom came through and kicked Reggie into next Tuesday. The distraction got NXT’s newest tag team off their axis and they lost the match. I don’t think booking this new team in this match makes sense. Tony & Stacks have a date with Gallus for tag team gold so losing made no sense for them. And even the finish made it more about Reggie than Bronco & Lucien. I’m not down on them but I am down on the booking here. Back Down(never) I didn’t like how they handled Roxanne Perez last week at all. They rectified that this week when she got extra violent against Blair Davenport. Public beatdowns can get a little silly but this one in some Florida convenience store worked for me. Mostly because we got at least two real-life reactions: The guy behind the counter recorded with his camera—part of their footage, and one woman bolted the minute the fists flew. Roxanne bounced when the cops came but she sent a message and warned Blair. Good moves all around. And no, it’s not Booker T and Steve Austin but a nice homage nonetheless. Oh No Gabe Stevenson needs some work, people. Physically he looks fine and obviously does an incredible Suplex. But that mic work? Let’s hope he improves there. He’s certainly not natural. Either way, we never found out his future plans because Baron Corbin interfered doing and saying Baron Corbin things. Gabe caught him in a Suplex and now the two have a match at the Bash. The one thing I really didn’t dig into because it doesn’t require a shovel, is that the North American championship match at The Great American Bash is now a triple threat match. Mustafa Ali & Wes Lee got in each other’s way and Dirty Dom slid into the moonlight with Mami. It was that kinda night where a lot happened. We got vignettes for other matches, backstage segments featuring Los Lotharios, and a silly Supernova Sessions. Not to mention the Creed Bros.—still in disguise—finally made their move on The Dyad during that six-man tag. Just a lot happening. Which brings me to my ultimate point that the show felt rushed and crammed this week. Just way too much for two-hours. Still a fine week in the NXT territory, but not one of their best from a wrestling and pacing standpoint. What did you think about this show? |
