Opening segment.
The second and final day of the Superstar shakeup started off with The Kevin Owens show and he obviously got a big ovation from the Montreal crowd. Owens said welcome to the Kevin Owens show in French and that's all I got from him speaking in French.
He then introduced ⅔ of The New Day in Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston and Owens asked him that they have a match between Rusev, Nakamura and Cesaro vs Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods and himself.
The segment ended with all three of those men making a fool of themselves which I'm not gonna lie, it was entertaining. A decent segment in my opinion. Especially when Kevin Owens was gyrating. Hilarious stuff from Owens.
Ali (Still Mustafa Ali to me) vs The first SmackDown Live Pick.
After that, The New Day was searching for Big O aka Kevin Owens so that Kevin could eat a crap ton of pancakes to become an honorary member of The New Day which that's exactly what he did.
Charlotte Flair vs Carmella.
During the match, Carmella delivered a cross body from the barricade to Charlotte which looked good. The match ended with Charlotte hitting the figure 8 and won the match. The match was a bit slow but it was solid.
After the match, Lars Sullivan came out and destroyed R Truth. If WWE was TV 14 again, guaranteed he's gonna beat up Carmella as well. Lars Sullivan is now officially on SmackDown Live even though by the end of my RAW review (click here to read it), I wrote that Lars Sullivan is on RAW which is an oopse from my part.
Becky Lynch Has Her Own Announcement Regarding The Superstar shakeup (Yes, I got that from Tom Phillips).
Becky Lynch talked about her win at Wrestlemania and wanting competition. Ember Moon and Bayley came out basically to challenge the championships. The IIconics came out and they said that Bayley and Ember got zero belts and how their belts look so much better than Becky's belts which I agree.
Paige came out and she announced who's gonna face the IIconics for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship and they are Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville or so I thought. That team is Asuka and Kairi Sane. All those women except for Becky had a brawl and you know what that means…..
Bayley, Asuka, Kairi Sane and Ember Moon vs The IIconics, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville.
The match was okay. The babyface team won the match with the insane elbow drop to Peyton Royce which is always great to look at. Ember Moon and Bayley coming to Smackdown Live is a great addition to the SmackDown Live women's division and I hope that Ember especially gets a championship opportunity ASAP.
The New Day and Kevin Owens vs Rusev, Shinsuke Nakamura and Cesaro.
Another okay match. The New Day and Big O won the match with a stunner to Rusev.
Vince McMahon announces the biggest acquisition in the history of Smackdown Live.
Vince McMahon came out and he got “You screwed Bret” chants which was hilarious. Then, he announced the biggest acquisition in the history of this show and that person is, Elias. Huh? I mean I like Elias but he's no BIG acquisition.
That was a BIG disappointment until the BIG Dog showed up (see what I just did there). The show ended with Roman Reigns telling everybody that SmackDown is his yard now and proceeded to spear Elias. I love this choice man and it makes a lot of sense considering that AJ Styles left the house that he built.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos:
Like: Roman Reigns, Ember Moon and Bayley appearance, Finn Balor vs Mustafa Ali.
Didn't like: Nothing really.
