It is not surprising that Smackdown is better than Monday Night Bore.
And this episode proved it. Yes, it was a night of rematches but at least I wasn't yawning throughout most of the episode.
Side note, Pat McAfee on commentary? Let's go. I love this choice, guys. The way he talks sh*t about somebody will always bring a smile to my face. Already, Smackdown after mania is way better than RAW after mania.

Roman Reigns Reflects On His Victory At Wrestlemania.
After WWE tried to recreate the boos that Roman Reigns got 4 years back, Reigns said that he fulfilled his promise by Defeating Edge and Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania.
As the tribal chief was going to leave the ring, out came the Swiss cyborg himself, zazarow and Reigns immediately walked out of the ring.
I assumed Cesaro is going to face the Intercontinental champion, APOLLOOOOOOO! But, he's stepping up against the tribal chief and I'm all for it, honestly.
Cesaro wants a match with Roman Reigns in a traditional exhibition but not for the blue belt.
Paul Heyman reacted to the news of Cesaro's challenge to Roman Reigns, saying that Cesaro has a billion-dollar body with a 10 cent brain because Cesaro doesn't have a clue how big of a star Roman Reigns is (Cesaro "10 cent brain"? The dude speaks a gazillion languages for God's sake).
This promo reminds me why Paul Heyman is one of the best to ever do it on the mic.
Rey Mysterio vs Otis.
By the way, Otis' theme song? An absolute banger.
Mysterio pulled off the win with the crucifix pin. It was aight.
Sami Zayn Isn't Too Happy With His Loss To Kevin Owens At Wrestlemania.
The headline above was pretty much the gist of Zayn's promo before he gets to face Kevin Owens once again.
And, the match was good, good, good! Owens wins with a count-out and the prizefighter wasn't having this victory. So, Owens nailed the stunner on Zayn.
Apollo Crews "debuts a new persona" in Commander Azeez and he was a member of the Nigerian elite God.
I didn't hear that backstory during Dabba Ka……. I mean Commander Azeez's run on RAW Underground.
Bianca Belair's Smackdown Women's Championship Victory.
Before The Street Profits faces Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler for the blue tag belts (I ain't calling them Dirty Dawgs because the name sounds like a bad Quentin Tarantino movie), they celebrate Bianca Belair's historic victory at Wrestlemania.
Belair gave a heartfelt promo about how anybody can find the B.E.S.T in them.
Banks' reaction during her interview with Kalya Braxton? She seemed really bothered (I smell a rematch).
Bayley challenged Bianca Belair for the women's championship in another interview with Kayla Braxton (I smell a triple threat match).
That tag team title bout was a solid encounter. Roode and Ziggler retained with a zig-zag on Montez Ford.
Natalya defeated Shayna Baszler in a match which means we're probably getting a rematch. Look, they had a good match at Wrestlemania so I ain't mad on a rematch. Baszler losing a match isn't surprising at this point. She should be protected not Nia Jax of all people.
Cesaro vs Jey Uso.
Whenever somebody challenges Roman Reigns, they always have to go through Jey Uso. Uce keeps on taking Ls. I wish they would have Jey actually win some matches but I'm just nitpicking.
The good news for Jey Uso is, he actually won a match if you count disqualifications.
Seth Rollins attacked Cesaro and cost the Swiss a match with Roman Reigns. I guess the amount of UFO clips that WWE played throughout the show paid off?
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn, The Street Profits vs Robert Roode, Bianca Belair's promo on her celebration, Pat McAfee just Pat McAfee.
Didn't like: Nitpicking but Baszler losing again!
