Segment 10 No Wrestle 3:15 Wrestle 3:21 - ZigReigns/RollinsShow...in progress
Maybe Reigns should wrestle Rollins more often. Seth was making him look like a million bucks.

Segment 11 No Wrestle 1:15 Wrestle 6:17 - ZigReigns/RollinsShow
Match ended up running 9:38. Was just never all that great though. Just didn't feel that main event. Reigns is trying too hard. He needs to be a badass that doesn't rely on antics and mannerisms to get him over with the crowd. And of course Show was Show. (But again, it might be something brilliant that has fans absolutely loving anybody that goes up against him.)

So I read the Spoilers for this week. I won't ruin anything results wise, but Bray Wyatt wrestles Rowan for the first time. Zero build. Shame they've made Rowan a joke already. Just happy it didn't happen to Harper.
Rowan seems like an afterthought less than 2 months after his unexplained face turn.

Kidd and Cesaro continue to impress.
They even rolled out a Kings of Wrestling finish with the Giant Swing/Dropkick.
I hope they stick together and get a nice run.
Fact.

How they did the Rowan/Wyatt match I actually thought was really good. "If I'm willing to do this to my own flesh & blood, imagine what I'm willing to do to you Dean Ambrose?" Just wish they'd have built it a bit to maybe the end of the show. No reason for Reigns/Rusev to be the main event when we all know it's going to end in a throwaway finish to protect Rusevs streak.
Curtis Axel still rocks his Better Than Perfect shirt from 2013. Either he needs to grow a super long beard & get saved by Wyatt or he's at the top of my list for Future Endeavoured in 2015.
Poor Rhett Titus didn't even get his name said in his squash against the Ascension. They mention LOD & Demolition in their vignette. But no Powers of Pain? Bullshit.
Dammit Kidd & Cesaro are amazing as a team. Swing/Dropkick was great, but that finish is impressive with the Ricola Bomb/Blockbuster combo. That's a separated shoulder waiting to happen for Kidd though. He lands super hard in that bump. Nattie looked incredible.
Speaking of those 3, I've noticed on Twitter whenever they talk about the team, they use #M when doing so. What's that mean? I can only assume M for Misused? Kidd called them Masters of the WWE Universe once. Didn't know if anyone knew or not.

Their team name is something like Masters of the Universe.

Mick Foley on WWE Tag Team
WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley recently took to Facebook and commented on Cesaro and Tyson Kidd as a tag team. Below is what he had to say about them, one night after their victory over Los Matadores on Smackdown:
“FUTURE CHAMPIONS!
I know they've been teaming up for a few weks, but tonight’s #Smackdown was the first time I’ve seen Tyson Kidd and Cesaro – WWE together as a tag-team, I know this may seem like a premature evaluation, but based soley on this one match, I am going to boldly predict that Kidd and Cesaro will be the WWE tag team of the year for 2015. Remember, I’m the guy who boldly predicted that the waves of SandowMania were going to one day crash down upon our shores…and so they have! Don’t even try pointing to that double-loss on WWE Monday Night Raw either – because the legend of SandowMania is going to outlive us all, daddy!
Sure, they were probably just thrown together by creative. But sometimes, that’s how great teams are formed. Just ask Billy Gunn and Road Dogg, who were put together on a whim for the sake of a house show run in 1997, and became one of the most entertaining and successful units in pro-wrestling history.
Given the chance, and some time to gel, I see big things – and great matches – in this team’s future. Holler if you hear me.

Cole: JBL, you were part of one of the greatest tag teams of all time with your friend Ron Simmons. Does The Ascension have what it takes?
JBL: I don't know?
Hahahaha. I don't think JBL is a believer.

Segment 1 No Wrestle 12:59 Wrestle 0
Edge and Christian are back to host Smackdown because who wouldn't want to come back after being potentially paralyzed or killed the night before. Anyways, I think they're already sweetening the crowd noise. Awful long segment to run between E&C and J&J Security, for the love of God. And Bray Wyatt is apparently fighting someone next.

Segment 2 No Wrestle 4:04 Wrestle 4:00 - Bray/BigRed
Intensely physical match albeit only lasting 4 minutes. Once again, you'd think the E would maybe build to something like this given their history. Rowan actually got in about 85% of the offense before Bray hit his finisher.

Segment 4 No Wrestle 1:26 Wrestle 4:07 - 6 Man (UsosTruth/RoseDusts)
Not a bad little match. Action packed. Fun. Usos & Truth win it in 5:13.
You know, if the E wasn't so intent on breaking up their tag teams so quickly all the time, they could be up for a little renaissance in the division:
Usos Dusts Miz-Dow Ascension Cesaro/Kidd Slater/Gator Matadores New Day? J&J Security

Segment 5 No Wrestle 5:49 Wrestle 1:34 - Ryback/Show.....in progress
It continues to befuddle me how/why they cut away for commercial after only 1:34 of the match. They did it in the 6-Man too as they cut away at 1:06.
But yet promos, vignettes, and nonsense can go on uninterrupted for 15 flippin minutes. And no. I won't stop bitching about it.

Total match time ran 8:23 with Show getting the win after Ryback was distracted by Rusev coming out. That match was not terrible.

Well it was supposed to be Ambrose vs. Axel but Ambrose came out, kicked his ass, and the bell never rang. Ambrose then gave a promo about literally murdering Bray Wyatt. I pretty much loved the whole thing.

The closest they ever came to telling us who the Ascension were wrestling was when Cole called them "These men" He then went on to say that the Ascension beat two "Superstars"

Another massive free giveaway out of nowhere. Oh well, whatevs. It's your money, Vince. Very interested in this match. I kind of judge these two against one another so this is kinda great.

Segment 11 No Wrestle 4:12 Wrestle 7:55 - Reigns/Rusev
Not a bad match but it was interesting on a few levels. Thought Reigns was fairly exposed throughout the match. Couldn't get Rusev up for the Samaon Drop. Needed Rusev to do 90% of the work for the back drop. And was waaaay over reliant on punches. Reigns did sell well however. So yeah, Rusev appears much more advanced at this stage than Reigns. Also amazing the kind of match that Rollins got out of Reigns on Monday night, comparatively.
I do like all the big guys beating the crap out of each other lately. It's been pretty well done.
Total time for that match was 9:34 before Big Show ruined everything.

Segment 1No Wrestle 16:41 Wrestle 0 16:41? Motherfuck. Once again they thought it was important to replay Raw for the 2 people that didn't watch it, but DO watch Smackdown. I love Rollins but then even he came out and REPLAYED THE REPLAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyways, Reigns came down. Gave a promo that wasn't terrible and then punched everybody in sight. He likes to punch. A lot. Punchy, punch, punch. Then Kane came out and made a 2 on 1 match and Big Show talked about his meaty fist. Seriously.

Segment 2 No Wrestle 4:56 Wrestle 2:34 Rose/Big E
Cesaro and Kidd kind of accompany Rose to the ring. They stand on opposite sides as the Rosebuds during the match. Actually, I have no idea what they're doing there. Kofi and Lionel accompany Big E. This whole deal was pretty terrible. Big E gets the win.

Segment 3 No Wrestle 3:52 Wrestle :43 - Ascension/"Other"Superstars
I love how they don't even try to come up with names for the guys the Ascension wrestle. JBL called them "Two guys on a day pass". The other announcer dude (that won't be there next week) called them "The new tag team"
Doing some heavy crowd sweetening on the broadcast tonight. (As usual)
