I made fun of the blue brand for months on end for being the current face of the word "mediocrity" but as of late, Smackdown has been doing an excellent job on building tomorrow's most anticipated show, Wrestlemania. Awesome job, Smackdown.  Miz TV. Special Guest, The Usos? The Usos showed up before the host did to state their reasons why they'll climb the ladder and win the SmackDown tag team championship.  The New Day disagreed as they believed that they will capture the tag team championship of the world to which Usos and New Day teased a brawl between each other.  The Miz and John Morrison basically were baffled at the idea that they might lose the belts which led to a bit of shenanigans between all three teams.  Not the best way to produce the final segment before the upcoming tag team title match but it wasn't offensive so there's that.  Naomi vs Tamina vs Lacey Evans.  After Tamina takes the W with a superkick on Na...

via WWE A good episode of Friday night Smackdown that did a good job on furthering the storylines from the blue brand side of things for Wrestlemania.  Look, I've expressed my displeasure for Smackdown whether it's a series of lame jokes of mine or just stating the reason why for months.  However, I feel like Smackdown has improved with baby steps as of late. Maybe that's due to Wrestlemania being right around the corner but whatever the creative team is doing, they should do it more.  Bayley And Sasha Address The SmackDown Women's Championship Match At Wrestlemania.  The SmackDown women's champion, Bayley and Sasha Banks talked about how their road to Wrestlemania is a nightmare as they're facing each other among other opponents they have to deal with.   Out came Lacey Evans then Naomi and they basically said that they'll become Smackdown women's champion.  Tamina showed up and she said that action speaks louder than words...

A surprisingly noteworthy episode of Smackdown and that is not the norm for the blue brand.  The question is, was it good? Nah. This is a show that only delivers 3 to 6 out of 10s and this week, it was a 6.  At least it wasn't a train wreck like Super showdown which you can click here to read my whole thoughts on the show.  Goldberg Starts Off Smackdown As The Universal Champion.  The intro for this week's show was sacrificed by a 54-year-old Goldberg who by the way, is one of WWE's top champions (I can't believe I actually said that in two thousand and twenty). Goldberg said that there's always who's next after he was booed outta the building.  That next is Roman Reigns who grabbed the mic and told Goldberg that he's next. First off, thank God that Reigns moved on from that awful feud.  Secondly, Boston doesn't like Goldberg which is understandable given that awful ending on Thursday. This was a good segment. It was quick...

I'm back from a month hiatus from not reviewing this show and the question is, Did I miss something?  Not really but the show was meh (you're going to see a lot of the word "meh" in this recap) but meh is better than horrible so for that, the blue brand has improved the quality of storytelling in certain aspects of course.   Miz TV. Special Guest, John Morrison.  Miz mentioned in his promo about how his statement aka a beating from Miz to Kofi was him having a bad day at the office and apologizes to the New Day member. He then introduced his best friend John Morrison who by the way is rocking the 2006 blonde hair kinda look.  Morrison stated that he's disappointed at the fans for chanting at Miz "you suck" and proceeds to insult the fans for not working as hard as Miz inside the squared circle. The New Day showed up and they asked him who is Miz fooling? That back and forth led to a match and speaking of which…. Kofi Kingston ...
