WWE Smackdown review

This was an OK show. There was nothing real special that went on but there were some good things and some bad things.

To the good.

I continue to be a huge fan of seeing Heath Slater get his ass kicked by WWE legends. Slater does a great job cutting his promos and he does a great job making the legends look good. This week it was Road Warrior Animal who delivered the beatdown. Ah, the memories seeing Animal (Joe Laurinaitis) in that ring. The only thing missing was Road Warrior Hawk, God rest his soul.

Considering I am in love with A.J., I have absolutely no issue every time she is in the ring or on the show. She can be on the show all she wants and it wont bother me. Christian's Peep Show segment wasn't too bad. Daniel Bryan continues to be a great worker and his character is so over the top.

To the average.

The main event consisted of Heavyweight Champion Sheamus & Rey Mysterio taking on Alberto Del Rio & Dolph Ziggler. This match ended in a DQ with Sheamus and Mysterio getting the win. Dolph Ziggler continues to be a great heel.

As for the not so good. The eight man tag match, I could really have cared less.

Dolph was in the average section of the review as well. However, he will also show up in the bad as they continue to make him look like an idiot when he tries to cash in the MITB briefcase, as he tried again tonight. Ziggler has a great chance to be a great champion if the WWE wants to book him correctly and stop making him look so dumb. There is a ton of potential with Ziggler and it is up to the WWE to do this correctly.

Like I stated earlier, this was just an average show so there really wasn't too much to report on.
