WWE Smackdown 22/11/19 | My Coherent Review.

I'm not a fan of the Smackdown on Fox episodes so far except one which was the NXT Invasion episode but this episode was really good thanks to you guessed it, the invasion between all brands. 

Will see how SmackDown does creatively following Survivor Series and beyond. Hoping that the shows after this are not a snooze fest. 

Smackdown Prepare Their One Last Brawl With RAW And NXT. 

The show opened with Roman Reigns giving his Smackdown troops some motivation few days before Survivor Series. 

Sasha Banks as Smackdown team captain for the women's 5 on 5 on 5 tag team traditional Survivor Series match, brought her team members to the ring and called out RAW. 

Smackdown got their wish and Team RAW showed up and Charlotte challenged Sasha to a match for old times sake. 

Team NXT entered the house that AJ Styles built in Smackdown and Rhea Ripley wanted this match to be a triple threat match between herself, Banks and Flair and that's the opening match of this show. 

The match ended with a W for Rhea when Charlotte did the figure eight to Banks and Ripley applied the crucifix pin while the submission was locked in. That was a cool finish and a big win for Rhea Ripley. I like it. 

Sami Zayn Unveils Something. 

That something was a brand new Intercontinental championship design and it looks fabulous but I would prefer a bit of blue on the main plate however, the title looks fantastic nevertheless. 

Sami Zayn then asked Shinsuke Nakamura about the North American champion's name and Nakamura said that he drew a blank. Speaking of the North American champion, out came Roderick Strong and the rest of Undisputed Era which led to The New Day showing up and challenging them to a match.

But given that the SmackDown tag team champions were outnumbered, they brought up Heavy Machinery. Did I mention that the Intercontinental championship looks great? I think I have. 

The New Day and Heavy Machinery vs The Undisputed Era. 

Heavy Machinery did a double team manoeuvre which was a throw into a belly to belly suplex to Kylie O'Reilly. Tucker Knight delivered a picture-perfect moonsault to Roderick Strong basically putting Charlotte's moonsault to shame. 

The messiah of the backbreaker countered that with a knee to Tucker's face ironically and The Undisputed Era won the match. 

AJ Styles delivered a phenomenal forearm outta nowhere to Nakamura and thanks to Sami Zayn, he brought a chair and hits on Styles and Roderick Strong. A very good enjoyable match. AJ Styles cut a typical heel promo of his you know, "I'm the best thing in WWE" basically. 

Daniel Bryan Calls Out Bray Wyatt. 

Bryan wants to summon The Fiend aka calling him out. The lights went down and Wyatt didn't show up but instead, The Miz came out and he didn't like the way Bryan treated him last week so Miz slapped Daniel leading to a one on one match. 

Bryan was about to hit the yes chant when preparing for the running knee and then, The Fiend stood in Miz's place and choked out Bryan with the mandible claw. An okay match. Looking forward to this match though and I hope they get rid of that stupid red lights. 

Oh, and Shayna Baszler and Bayley brawled after the Fiend's appearance. 

Mustafa Ali, Chad Gable and Roman Reigns vs King Corbin, Dolph Ziggler and Bobby Roode. 

Ali delivered a dive on Ziggler and Roode and had a bit of a back and forth with Corbin but the 2019 King Of The Ring winner planted him with deep-six of all moves and the heel team won the match because apparently pinning the hometown guy is a brand new idea to WWE. 

Reigns helped Ali from an additional beating by Corbin with a spear and Seth Rollins along with the rest of the Monday Night RAW roster showed up. Roman and Seth exchanged some rights and lefts and the rest of Smackdown came to save the big dog. The entire NXT roster came with the same vehicle that DX drove back in the late 90s and chaos ensued. 

Yes, RAW, NXT and now Smackdown had a similar conclusion but all of all the brand invasion segments, this was by far the best one. All of the shows brought the big guns this time with the exception of some however, it was satisfying to watch (that Braun Strowman and Keith Lee stare down was great). 

So, to recap for all of you slow mofos. 

Like: The New Day and Heavy Machinery vs The Undisputed Era, the ending of this very episode, the way Rhea Ripley pinned Charlotte. 

Didn't like: Nitpicking but I'm not a fan of Mustafa Ali being pinned in his home city.
