We need more control in the 2nd half
That tactical change Setien made really rattled us, Ceballos should be taken off for Camavinga or Modric, he is having a poor game.

WWE SMACKDOWN REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS

Roman Reigns was not at Friday Night SmackDown this week.
Jimmy Uso, too, was not at SmackDown.
As it turned out, that was because Reigns wanted Jimmy to stay home and watch his brother, Jey, take on Sami Zayn all by his lonesome. Paul Heyman explained as much backstage early in the show. When Jey, none too pleased with this, walked off, Heyman then told Solo Sikoa “either he solves the Sami Zayn problem tonight, or you solve our problems tonight.”
Intrigue!
Later, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn met backstage. The former talked about this being a great opportunity to put The Bloodline behind them. Beat Jey Uso here, and they can move forward.
Naturally, Zayn had a feeling.
That feeling, as he explained it, was a sense of obligation and he couldn’t shake the thought that perhaps he should have a talk with Jey. KO didn’t even try to talk him out of it, instead laying out the facts — it’s a bad idea.
Sami said he was right, and then told him not to worry.
But that didn’t seem to allay any fears of what was to come.
Intrigue!
Later still, Zayn actually did catch up to Jey and had the same message for him as before — it doesn’t have to be this way. Hey, look around: Jimmy is gone, Reigns is mad, Heyman is selling lies, and Solo looks ready to drop the hammer. Sami did what he said he would, taking the tag team titles at WrestleMania, and he’ll beat more sense into Jey if he has to. But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Just then, Owens was attacked by Sikoa, getting his leg crushed as Jey looked on, seemingly unsure of himself.
It was finally time for the match.
They played it fairly straight up, a typical Bloodline match. Late in the match, Sikoa got involved, hitting the Samoan Spike and paving the way for Jey to pick up the victory. After, he helped Jey up and all seemed to be well.
But then…
Sikoa went about a beatdown of Sami that Jey stopped. It got a big pop and was one hell of a tease ... That lasted all of a few seconds, when Jey delivered a superkick and ordered Solo to get a chair so they could finish Sami off proper.
BRO!
Yep.
Matt Riddle, of all people, showed up to save the day. There is some storyline continuity there, as it was Sikoa who took him out when they needed to write him off. It still feels like an odd fit for him to plug in here, though.
That might just be me.
They did leave the door open just enough for Reigns and Jey to still have some problems coming out of this too, but we’ll see.
The big Triple H announcement, as it turns out, was the return of the Draft:
The Draft is one of the easiest wins of the year for WWE, because it generates automatic interest if only to see the results of it but I’m having a bit of a hard time getting all that hyped for it considering Triple H spent much of the past year more or less ignoring the brand split. Wrestlers have been bouncing back and forth from Raw to SmackDown on a weekly basis.
So what’s it matter if they’re technically on one roster over the other?
Oh, who am I kidding, I’ll be in on this big time by the time it gets here. It’s a draft! It’s always a good time, and they always manage to throw a surprise or two in there.
They damn well better have something special in store this year with how Triple H hyped it here.

All the rest
-Although GUNTHER won the triple threat match for his Intercontinental championship against Drew McIntyre and Sheamus at WrestleMania 39, they kicked off this week’s show with a six-man tag pitting Imperium vs. The Brawling Brutes. They spent much of the match building to Sheamus getting the hot tag so he could square up with GUNTHER again, and Portland absolutely loved it. Maybe this thing still has legs? The match was a lot of fun, one of those six-mans that just breaks down into chaos, with bodies flying everywhere. Ultimately, Sheamus pinned Giovanni Vince after the Brogue Kick. I wouldn’t hate going back to GUNTHER vs. Sheamus at Backlash.

-Ricochet defeated Ivar of The Viking Raiders in a match that saw both Braun Strowman and Erik barred from ringside. They played this like the typical little vs. big style match-up with Ricochet using his high flying to score the win but also proving he’s got the muscle to hang with a wrestler like that. It was a fun match with the crowd happy to see the babyface going over.

-The new number one contenders to the women’s tag team titles, Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez, defeated Natalya & Shotzi — who were calling themselves “ballsy baddies” — in a match Wade Barrett admitted on commentary before it ever got underway was designed to sharpen their knives ahead of challenging for the championship next week. They won in relatively short order, and looked fine in the process.

-Rhea Ripley and The Judgment Day were here, with the new SmackDown women’s champion introducing herself as the new Queen of the blue brand. Finn Balor made like he was the real winner against Edge, seeing as he’s the one still standing. When Dominik Mysterio tried to talk, he was drowned out by boos. It was fantastic. It’s incredibly fun to hate this man. He claimed he held back on his father, Rey, at WrestleMania. Damian Priest got his turn, and he said he forgives Bad Bunny for making him do what he did to him on Raw. We’re definitely getting that tag match at Backlash, and the heat should be off the charts for it.
The ensuing tag team match was a ton of fun, with Priest pinning Santos Escobar after South of Heaven despite a mighty effort from Rey. I’m not a big fan of Escobar being made to look so much lesser here, mostly because I think he’s got all the potential in the world to be a big star for WWE, and he’s going to need to be booked better than this. But the bigger Mysterio family drama story is still hitting enough that I can’t fault them for playing things this way. There was also a nice little teaser for a Ripley vs. Zelina Vega match in here.

-They set up LA Knight vs. Xavier Woods on this show, with the former complaining about not making it on the card at WrestleMania and the latter unwilling to listen to those complaints. “You have to make something happen yourself,” and all that. I don’t think it was meant to be ironic, but hey, point taken. This seemed as though it was headed for a match but they didn’t get around to it this week. Kinda fitting. They did announce it for next week, at least!
The matches were fun this week, and the main story got some major development.

Grade: B-

How some w@nkers thinks at times ehn is baffling AF. Seeing the comments and seeing a few weird woke dumbos trying to say Bella out to receive more money and even suggesting equal pay is mind boggling. You begin to wonder whether any of those weirdos have ever worked a single day in their lives or just choose to be hypocritically woke.

Some mugus are even spinning it to gender pay gap. 🙃🙃

Who the fvvk knows who Bella Ramsey is? The only project she's known for, she didn't even get up to 20 minutes total for 8 seasons of GOT. Just used in a couple scenes and backing orders and people thinks she's that important. Oberyn Martell is far more memorable and a major player for a whole season than Bella could ever dream of.

A 19 year old getting paid $700k for 10 episodes in her FIRST lead role and breakout performance is more than enough.
This ppl dey underrate Pedro Pascal with his lead roles in Narcos, WW84, Mando and other numerous roles in various films and TV shows. 20+ years of experience comparing a kid that's been nonexistent in entertainment since GOT ended.

Lmao bruh did you really just take out time to rant about this ? 😆

I ain't watch Fury of The Gods yet but I still don't think anything in DCEU can beat the premium crap Black Adam is. Even Suicide Squad with the way I hate that movie (& consider it the worst DCEU film) and want nothing to do with it is starting to look like a Masterpiece when compared with BA. At least, Suicide Squad had great actors, great box office and even an Oscar to show for it.
All things BA can't boast of, not at all being remotely good.

Anyways, I go know this weekend.

That movie is the worst blockbuster superhero movie ever.
Only love and thunder is worse.
Black Adam is far better.

If you hate Vince so much you can try your luck with Tony Khan.

I never said I hated Vince.
Some of his booking ideas are just redundant, and this is due to his increasing age.

Why are you so stressed out that Vince McMahon is back in charge? Has HHH really changed much since he's been in charge? Apart from resigning his NXT Black and Gold duds like Karrion Kross and Emmalina, what's so different?

You hate it, so you automatically conclude thatVince is back. When the truth is, no one actually knows what is going on behind the scenes.

I think it's pretty obvious the rumours are true, maybe not totally but to some extent cos you can clearly see Vince's hand in the booking decisions.

Triple H did alot in very little time tbh, he has his own flaws but he is better than Vince at booking for sure and the Wrestlers prefer him.

I'll have you know that the IWC also complained about this very same story. They wanted Sami Zayn to be the one to dethrone Reigns. They said the fans would turn on Rhodes in favour of Zayn. That didn't happen and now they are acting like they were invested in the story from day one when all they've every done is find one reason or the other to complain.

I wouldn't go as far as generalising it, some sections definitely wanted Zayn and it was merited but most people already knew Cody was the chose one (or so they thought).

The IWC always gets extra salty when they get swerved by story developments.

I wanted Cody to win too. However, I am interested to see how things play out. I'm not going up and down complaining that my fantasy booking didn't come to pass.

Everyone wanted Cody to win
That's just a testament of how good the story was, pulling people in like that and then swerving them
Don't blame anyone for feeling salty bruh.

Players that should always start important matches for us.

1). Vinicius (Starboy, words can't even begin to describe how important this boy is for us in big games)
2). Benzema (I have my issues with him but I can't deny his absolute brilliance in crucial matches. Having him is far better than having Lewanghostski in important matches for sure)
3). Camavinga (Strong tackle, speed, creativity, nimbleness, verticality, 17 lungs; cos this dude never gets tired, put him anywhere and he drops 10/10 no matter what everyone else around him is doing)
4). Rodrygo (a perfect foil for Vinicius and Benzema, knows haw to utilize space more than anyone else in the attack, very good off the ball runner too)
5). Militao (Rock, absolute monster, they said Rudiger is a destroyer but that title sits comfortably with Militao, that guy is something else. Best defender in the world without a doubt)
6). Courtois (we all know about this one)
7). Valverde (this man allows the teams performance impact his output, when the team is set up well he plays well, when we are set up poorly he turns to a headless chicken. Absolute team player with mad verticality)

I'm not even bothered who disrupted play more. As far as there were significant disruptions in a match, significant extra time should also accompany. Not that laughable 3mins referee add. For match wey dem stop tire and coach even collect cards sef.

Okay o. Na sha get luck say we get serious injuries.

Na mercy minutes the ref give Una, if he added more time we would have scored more. Barca never looked like scoring. That 2nd half was like playing against one low life Premier League or German team.

But the overall general booking and morale of the staff is what I'm concerned about. There was this wave of fresh air, which could be sucked out now

For me the whole momentum they had coming out from Wrestlemania has evaporated. I just want to see what will happen on SMACKDOWN but my hopes are surely not up.

If we open the referee case now e go be like say we be sore losers. That guy na goof. Also there's also the useless extra time those w@nkers gave us. With all the numerous disruptions and theatrics that Madrid players were displaying on the field and they still get mind add just 3mins. Nice one Tebas. 👍 The match deserved nothing less than 8-10 mins of added time. Off course we weren't going to make a comeback but the nonsense those players was displaying seems more or less being rewarded.

We meet next season sha. No be person say make Raphinha useless.

What theatrics?
Your players were the ones always disrupting the game with useless fouls right from the first half, it's only fair that it came back and bit you guys in the arse with that penalty being the cherry on top.

How Araujo escaped this game without a yellow still baffles me sha but it's all good.

Still doesn't negate the fact that Ancelotti needs to leave since he can never be proactive, always reactionary and hoping for the best.
