Yes, people. Hell In A Cell is next Sunday (or Monday morning in my case) and this has been the least memorable build of a PPV I've ever covered.
The question is, was this episode of Smackdown also the least memorable? I mean, yea.
Shinsuke Nakamura And Riddle Go Against The Usos.
Yea, the two guys that lost their tag partners due to injury are challenging The Usos for the unified tag belts and based on the brawl, it looks like Riddle and Nakamura will be facing The Usos which I don't mind. I mean, I did, unfortunately, see someone f**k a corpse.
Ronda Rousey vs Raquel Rodriguez.
The match ended via a DQ due to Shayna Baszler and Natalya's attack on both competitors which led to a tag team match.
Ah. The classic "singles match turned into a tag match". And guess who won? Rousey and Rodriguez. You know what that means?
You're probably going to see the match between Raquel Rodriguez and Rona Rousey again and again and again (sprinkle in a heel turn from Rodriguez) to the point where you're gonna get sick of seeing them wrestle again.
WWE loves taking an interesting concept and beating it to the ground.
Jinder Mahal And Shanky vs Los Lotharios.
Despite Shanky's kick to Angel after one-half of Los Lotharios gyrated to the ring announcer, Shanky's team lost the match with a springboard kick from Humberto to Jinder Mahal.
After the match, Shanky told the modern-day maharajah to talk to the hand Maryse style.
Who would've thought that with all of the theme song changes, Jinder has the best theme song in all of WWE?
Max Dupri aka LA Knight aka Eli Drake is officially on Smackdown as per Adam Pearce. Damn, looking at this model recruiting gimmick, I'm sure Tyler Breeze is missing out.
Sami Zayn And Kevin Owens Go Back And Forth On Who's A Moron And A Liar.
What is this? A wrestling segment or every single interaction on Reddit?
Ricochet And Drew Gulak vs Gunther And Ludwig Kaiser.
The babyface lost with a kick to Gulak's chest by Kaiser.
Two years ago at Elimination Chamber, I remembered that Gulak had a fantastic match with Daniel Bryan.
Now, he's eating pins like a good shake shack burger.
The New Day And Drew McIntyre vs The Brawling Brutes In Sheamus, Butch And Ridge Holland.
You know this show has been really dry when The New Day's feud with Butch, Sheamus and Holland are main eventing an episode of WWE's other flagship show.
Drew led The New Day to victory thanks to a claymore kick followed by an elbow drop from Xavier Woods to the big OI bruf. Meh.
So, to recap for all of you slow mofos.
Like: Because the show's dryer than Ashy Larry from the Chappelle Show, there's nothing about the episode I genuinely liked.
Didn't like: The classic cliches are running wild, a reminder that Drew Gulak (A fantastic wrestler) is underutilized.
