WWE SMACKDOWN REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS It’s been a little while since I’ve done some opening remarks, but I need to bring it back. I used to say that SmackDown was mostly a one storyline show. But I’m actually realizing that WWE is a one storyline company. But what the Reigns storyline is doing is becoming the best storyline in all of wrestling. It’s better than anything on Raw. It’s better than Karrion Kross and Finn Balor and the rest of them on NXT, too. And it’s better than Kenny Omega’s belt collector stuff in AEW. Yes, really, and I’m saying this as a fan of AEW as well, and a big fan of what Kenny is doing. While I love it though, it’s also frustrating. Because more things could be like this. Drew McIntyre and Bobby Lashley could be telling an incredible story on Raw with their history together outside of WWE. The Lilly thing could be compelling and interesting, with Shayna Baszler not being sacrificed for it. Why can’t more stories in WWE be like this one? All I ask is for it to make sense. Aside form the main features of this show, the rest of it was just repetitive, which we have talked about numerous times. That used to be just a Raw issue, though. Not anymore. And not only was this show repetitive, it set up most of next week’s show to be the same damn thing! That’s so frustrating when this show has the Reigns storyline. Master of manipulation Roman Reigns started the show doing what he normally does - stare daggers into Jey Uso. What we didn’t know was that this week was going to be Jey’s shining moment since last year’s Hell in a Cell. Reigns said that Jimmy and Jey owe him for his help last week. They need to answer for embarrassing the family. All of a sudden, the Usos music played and Jimmy Uso got into the ring. Jimmy wasn’t playing that game. He called out exactly what I’ve been saying about Roman - Roman’s jealous and doesn’t want anyone else on top except him. Reigns tells Jey to take care of this. Later, Jey walks up to Jimmy and the light shone through. Jey can’t admit to Jimmy that he knows they could have won on their own. Jimmy said that Reigns is the one disgracing the family. It was building up in Jey the whole time and he finally let it out. He doesn’t know how to get out of it. Absolutely brilliant performance. Jey went back to Reigns and said that Jimmy said if he wanted to meet, it would have to be in the Usos locker room. More stellar performance from Roman laughing at his cousins having a locker room since he’s the Head of the Table. But he entertained it. Jimmy blew up at Roman saying he didn’t care about the Universal Championship and that he’d be inducted one day as a spoiled bitch. He said he knew this was Roman’s way of operating since they were kids and he isn’t falling for it anymore. So Roman asked Jey if he saw what Jimmy was doing, and Jey had enough. He said he was tired of both men and walked off. And then the master of manipulation came back, just as he did last year at Hell in a Cell. Roman used his passion and his emotion to combat Jimmy’s willing to fight him. Roman calmed down and said that Jimmy is causing Jey to lose it. It’s him who is wrong and should be looking out for his brother. How dare he abandon his brother. It was absolutely brilliant. And Jimmy played right into it and sulked off to go find Jey. But all this time, Roman actually had a date with Rey Mysterio for his actions last week. So they used Jimmy and Jey being out to do a 2 on 1 beatdown, but Reigns overpowered the Mysterios and threw Dom out of the ring like he was a pebble. I nearly jumped out of my chair. This was an interesting way to set up a Cell match for Roman and Rey. I honestly thought that Rollins and Cesaro (talked about below) would get that treatment and maybe Roman would sit out of the pay-per-view. Rollins and Cesaro have been going on since WrestleMania. The match still gonna be fire, though. This was a great interaction between the veteran and the Head of the Table. A real knee slapper If SmackDown wasn’t the Roman Reigns show, this would be the main feature. This had every right to be terrible but delivered on so many levels. Ding Dong Hello! is the best talk show in this company and Bayley is the best host. She brought out the “Drip God” Seth Rollins and Rollins went to a video package from last week. Guests typically don’t do that but I’ll make an exception since it was the coolest thing they did with the ThunderDome last week. When that was over, Bayley and Rollins laughed. The two most grating laughs in WWE together. My goodness. But after 10 seconds I found myself chuckling. Then Bayley played the clip of Rollins pummeling Cesaro, and when that was over, they both howled again. I straight up laughed with them. When the doorbell rang again, I knew who it was, and I was so excited. Cesaro destroyed the Ding Dong Hello! set with Seth’s body, and his pants came off! I thought the segment was over, but it was so brilliant to have the tables turn by having Bianca Belair come out to laugh at Bayley. This feud is about laughs, and I am okay with that. To be honest, Bayley’s laugh isn’t as grating to me as it is for others. Seth and Cesaro really should have gotten the Hell in a Cell treatment. Darn it. The Rest Big E and Kevin Owens defeated Apollo Crews and Sami Zayn Big E and Big O teaming up again. Crews showed incredible strength by holding E up in a German suplex position for 4 or 5 seconds before completing the move. Crews and Zayn were gelling as a team and really able to separate the babyfaces from each other. At one point Owens tagged in and had such a great enraged demeanor on Zayn. He’s so great at that. Zayn almost won with the Blue Thunder bomb, but E broke it up and then a scary moment happened where E and Crews went over the top rope awkwardly but were thankfully okay. And we’re just gonna do this again next week with Azeez in Sami’s place. Alrighty then. Liv Morgan defeats Carmella via 50/50 And we’re just doing something that already happened last week. “The most beautiful woman in all of WWE” Carmella is now her official tagline. Morgan did her part to bring aggression. A quite funny part that couldn’t have been scripted because this company is creatively bankrupt aside from Roman Reigns - Carmella went to the announce table and told Cole to tell the audience at home how beautiful she is. All of a sudden the cameraman fell over Morgan crawling behind him. McAfee played it well. 50/50 booking strikes again. See you both next week! Shinsuke Nakamura defeated King Corbin And we’re just doing something that already happened last week and the week before and the week before. Look I love the BOOGS and Nak pairing, but if WWE thinks that they’re the goofballs here and not Corbin, they’ve got their heads twisted. And we’re just gonna do this again next week with the crown on the line. Alrighty then. Montez Ford vs. Chad Gable got the interference treatment Of course a heel setting up a “my partner won’t come out to the ring. Promise!” angle typically means that the heel’s partner is going to come out after blindsiding and beating up the babyface’s partner in the back. Who would stupidly take a bet that this isn’t going to lead to a tag team match next week? |

Thomas Meunier was the player who made the tackle that injured Eden Hazard's ankle in November of 2019, in a match between Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain. The 29-year-old, who played for PSG at the time, maintains that it was an accident and a normal footballing challenge, but Florentino Perez didn't agree. Meunier has revealed what the Real Madrid president said to him after that 2-2 draw, when they met in the corridors of the Estadio Santiago Bernabeu. "After the match I was in the tunnel and Florentino arrived," Meunier revealed on RTBF Sport. "I stretched out my hand and said 'pleased to meet you'. "He replied saying 'Pleased to meet you? Do you realise you just injured Eden Hazard? And you tell me you're pleased to meet me?' "I replied saying 'I injured Eden Hazard? It's my fault?' "He said 'Yes, it's your fault'. "I told him it was a duel like any other. It's football and it was a piece of play like any other." Meunier went on to explain how he believes the injury was a complete accident. "I put my foot in and he did too," the defender explained. "His ankle got stuck. "It was an inoffensive piece of contact between a defender and an attacker." Papa Flo is viscous

WWE NXT REVIEWS RECAPS AND REACTIONS A fatal five-way face off! Before we leave this house and knock on a few new doors at Takeover, there’s business left to settle inside the CWC. The five men who will battle for the NXT championship on Sunday were set to have a “face off” on Tuesday, although how that could have turned out less chaotic than last week was anybody’s guess. Scarlett’s warning certainly seemed ominous. Despite her deck of cards it was Adam Cole who dealt the better hand. He let all of the other challengers come down to the ring to state their case in Karrion Kross’ face, then appeared on the Titantron to say he was too smart to play this game — especially since he had already beaten Kross last week (verbally). O’Reilly said since Cole’s too much of a bitch to get in this ring, someone else has to show who they are. Kross: “And who are you exactly?” I’ll answer that question with another question for you all: what did the five fingers say to the face? “SLAP.” Everyone brawled as security tried and failed to calm things down, but just when Kross had gotten the better of his foes, Cole snuck in to superkick Kross and hit a flying knee from behind. He posed with the belt as the show went off the air in a very nice teaser for Takeover on Sunday! Austin Theory and Oney Lorcan settle the score Speaking of last week, we were supposed to get a new #1 contender to the NXT title in the triple threat match that opened last week’s show. Instead we got an Adam Cole run-in that left us with no winner and set the tone for a night of non-stop chaos. This included a debate turned fight when Austin Theory claimed “Papa” Johnny Gargano would have won the match if not for Cole, while Oney Lorcan said the same on behalf of “Bruiserweight” Pete Dunne. The only way these kind of debates ever get settled in pro wrestling is in the ring, but both sides were already brawling on the premises before the show! This was a physical affair from the opening bell. Uppercuts, chops, slams, and a leg sweep on the apron that led to Theory taking a flat back bump on “the hardest part of the ring.” He got his revenge later after the commercial break by smashing Lorcan into the plexiglass barricade twice. By this point both Pete Dunne and Johnny Gargano had come down to ringside to watch, and when their proteges hit a double clothesline for a double down, Gargano and Dunne started a brawl and had to be escorted out. Security!! This distraction worked in Lorcan’s favor, as he regained his composure and made Theory lose his by smashing him face first into a ring post. The match was over moments later, giving us a very solid opening to this week’s show. Ember Moon vs. Dakota Kai Having gotten fed up to here with Raquel González’ lackey Dakota Kai running interference for the women’s champion, Ember Moon vowed to take matters into her own hands with a two step plan — beat down Kai live on NXT, then march straight to a title shot at Takeover. Of course the ability to progress to part two of her master plan depended entirely on her performance Tuesday night. How did she fare? Not well as they went to commercial. Moon found her offense to get a near fall right after we came back from the break. When Kai rolled out of the ring to recover right near her bestie, Ember Moon gave chase and Raquel González took it upon herself to throw a big boot... and miss. Moon decked her with a punch and wiped out both women with a suicide dive. She threw Kai into the ring to hit an Eclipse but González hit her with the boot right in front of the ref for a disqualification. Instead of making Moon look weak as a challenger by having her take a two on one beating before Sunday, Moon got the better of González by blocking the one arm slam and hitting González with the Eclipse instead! That’s how you build up a contender the right way. Killian Dain gets “Swerved” After a parking lot altercation on last week’s show that seemingly went nowhere, we finally got a payoff to the war of words between Hit Row and the team of Killian Dain and Drake Maverick. You might have expected this to lead to a tag match between opposing forces (I’m sure Top Dolla and Ashante “Thee” Adonis would be a fine team) but instead we got a singles match on the last show before Takeover. Before this match could get underway though we had Legado del Fantasma coming out to the ring so Santos Escobar could bitch about his team losing last week thanks to Bronson Reed’s interference. Reed responded and came out to mock him by playing the video of Escobar getting squished into the plexiglass over and over again. An infuriated Escobar dared Reed to get in the ring and do it again — he said yes. MSK ran out to have his back, Legado took a powder, so Escobar’s next tactic was to challenge them to ALL the titles at Takeover in one match on Sunday — winner take all. They accepted and The Row finally came out for Swerve’s match with Dain, but not before they stared down BOTH groups as they sauntered their way to (and into) the ring. Hit Row used constant interference to get the upper hand on Dain, but he’d continue to power up and take control of the match no matter what they did. As he was going to climb the ropes for a potential finisher, the Row attempted another distraction and Drake Maverick had finally seen enough. He got destroyed by “Top Dolla” AJ Francis for his trouble, and Swerve kicked Dain in the head for the pin. This is one of those cases where I don’t care much for the match thanks to the constant chicanery, but I like what it DID in terms of establishing Hit Row as complete and utter dicks, so I give this segment a thumbs up. They even emphasized it by stepping over Maverick’s carcass after Swerve got the win. A “Priceless” announcement Ahead of an In Your House battled between wannabe Ted DiBiase acolytes L.A. Knight and Cameron Grimes, “The Million Dollar Man” promised a priceless announcement for this week’s edition of NXT. What did the devious DiBiase have up his sleeve? If you were expecting Mr. DiBiase to announce that his Million Dollar Title would be on the line between Grimes and Knight on Sunday, you’d be absolutely right. To up the stakes though both figuratively and literally he announced they’d fight for it in a ladder match! Candice LeRae’s least favorite singer is back with a vengeance. Poppy has already made an impact on the NXT brand this year with theme music, but nobody knew before Tuesday night what she had in store next — or if one half of the tag team champions could resist renewing her rivalry with the famous singer. To make a long story short, Poppy “pushed a button” on her phone as William Regal and Triple H gawked, instantly releasing her new album on Spotify and Apple Music. She wasn’t done though. Candice LeRae came down to the ring to complain about Poppy’s presence, blaming her for ruining Indi Hartwell’s life by hugging Dexter Lumis earlier. LeRae demanded satisfaction for sinking the ship that says the In-Dex seas. Poppy came out with a mic and said “I don’t wrestle, but I know someone who does.” Io Shirai returned! She did a double leg takedown, hit a 6-1-9 and a top rope missile dropkick, and LeRae took a powder from the beating as Poppy and Shirai celebrated in the ring. That’s a fun way to use a celebrity cameo on a wrestling show and a good one to boot — a perfect excuse to re-introduce Shirai after her recent absence. I wholeheartedly endorse this segment! What else do you need to know? There were two unannounced squash matches on this show. Xia Li attempted to take out Mercedes Martinez before her match, but Martinez fired up and knocked Li over a barricade and told the referee to ring the damn bell. Her poor opponent never even got introduced before eating an Air Raid Crash for the pin. I think this tweet sums up my feelings nicely. I love seeing @RealMMartinez wreck bitches. #WWENXTWe also got the Grizzled Young Veterans having a tag team match with this week’s 205 Live representatives in August Grey and Ikemen Jiro. This was little more than an excuse for Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher to watch from ringside, throw chairs at the ring after the match, and goad GYV into a fight. Before the night ended it was made official that the two sides would have a tornado rules fight on next week’s NXT! Grade: A Like a fresh dozen eggs straight from the grocery store, this show was all grade A start to finish. Were it not for Ever-Rise wasting our time I would have given it a perfect A+. Every segment made sense, every match had the right finish, everything built perfectly to our Takeover event on Sunday. Congratulations to everyone involved in getting things back on track this week. Karrion Kross told William Regal that he wasn’t running NXT and that it was completely out of control, but ironically that would have been more true last week instead. This show ran like a well oiled machine for two straight hours 1 Like |
