Ronda Rousey made her Smackdown in-ring debut which is insane to think about. The fact that they actually maintained the integrity of the brand split.
How was the show this week? Like all of their programming as of late, it was aight.
Naomi vs Carmella.
This was meh. The so-called "most beautiful woman in all of WWE" lost with a moonsault to Naomi.
Not gonna lie, seeing both Naomi and Sasha Banks in the tag team sphere feels not only a random arc to book but it's also a creative demotion since they're capable of so much more.
Drew McIntyre vs Jinder Mahal.
Aka a match that they definitely thought about as their WWE championship match at last year's WrestleMania.
One former WWE champion delivered the claymore to another former WWE champion which led to Drew's victory. Coolinos.
The Viking Raiders vs The Usos For The Smackdown Tag Team Championship.
A pretty good tag team match, playas! The raiding guys were about to walk out of this episode as the tag champions with the Viking Experience but Jey Uso broke the pin as soon as the referee counted 2.
Unfortunately for the Northsmen, The Usos retained the titles with the 3D to Erik. There's nothing wrong with expanding a performer's wrestling arsenal.
In other words, the 3D is a move they should use a lot more. Kinda like it honestly.
Sheamus vs Big E.
The star of the match was that darn ATV and moments after the match's sudden end, both lads destroyed the ATV, channelling their inner Brock Lesnar from 2004. Noice!
Ronda Rousey vs Sonya Deville.
Rousey looked good here which shouldn't be a surprise to us not named Susan Deville over here.
The woman that looks like a confused NPC won the match with the armbar that was followed by another submission by Ronda to Charlotte Flair (aka the ankle lock).
Austin Theory was like, "Hey Pat, come face my creepy a** at Wrestlemania." I'm sure Vince was supposed to face McAfee but a somewhat wise old man once said, "plan's changed".
While Roman Reigns revealed a spoiler for his title vs title match at WrestleMania in that he'll defeat the beast. Meh.
Ricochet vs Sami Zayn For The Intercontinental Championship.
Ever since WWE continued the arc between Sami Zayn and Johnny Knoxville, you know my man was going to lose the IC belt and that's exactly what happened here.
The best part? It ended via a distraction finish thanks to the goof himself, Johnny Knox.
And just like Shinsuke's reign, WWE ain't gonna do Jack sh*te with Ricochet as the intercontinental champion. At least the match itself was actually prettay, prettay, pretty good
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: The Viking Raiders vs The Usos (THAT 3D!? I LIKE IT), Ricochet vs Sami Zayn.
Didn't like: Sasha And Naomi teaming up is a creative demotion.
