1) Is anyone else confused by Daniel Bryan’s “heel turn,” if that is in fact what it is? The term “half-assed” comes to mind. Despite that, Bryan’s “I’m talking to you HeymanRules512″ line made me slap my knee. This is a strange three man feud for the heavyweight title. I would assume a triple threat between Bryan, Henry and The Big Show is in our near future.
2) I wonder if Health Slater will ever win a match ever again. Justin Gabriel has everything he needs to succeed inside the ring. Jobbing to him is no black eye, even for The One Man Southern Rock Band. However, jobbing to Hornswaggle is something that no one on on the Raw roster should have to do.
3) Aj dropped I LOVE YOU on Daniel Bryan!!!!??? GGAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!
4) It’s always strange to see Ezekiel Jackson getting pinned by a man half his size. Despite that fact, Cody Rhodes was spot on with his promo. He really appears to respect wrestling history, which is not shocking considering his bloodline. Pulling an “Ultimate Warrior” seems like a great idea. As long as he means holding the Intercontinental & Heavyweight titles and not calling Kevin Nash a homosexual.
5) I would like to reiterate that Drew McIntyre has the best walkout music in the business. I’m not sure what the end game is for him on Smackdown, but I hope it’s doesn’t end in his release. McIntyre appears to have all that is needed to succeed in professional wrestling. It’s just a matter of the WWE investing the time and effort to develop him.
6) If you are going to build a credible feud between Jinder Mahal and Sheamus? Mahal has to win once in a while. One man’s opinion.
7) How much would we all pay to see an adult film featuring AJ and The Big Show? Good lord. There is a slight size differential there. I don’t really understand her angle with Daniel Bryan or why the WWE keeps serving him up hot chicks. It’s possible I’m just insanely jealous. I’ll have to admit that.
8 ) Was anyone else POSITIVE that David Otunga was going to job to Santino Marella? It was quite shocking when the opposite happened. I would hope that Otunga eventually was a part of another stable. He seems to thrive in that scenario.
9) During Smackdown, my girlfriend yelled out “The Funkasaurus looks fabulous!!!” I put her through a table. Were the piping in cheers during that segment? Seemed like it.
10) Amazing promo and presence from Wade Barrett, per usual. He’s a man of class and God Save the Queen. Barrett can wind up a crowd in a matter of seconds. I hope the WWE realizes he needs to be in the title picture on Smackdown and not laying down for Sheamus.
11) Look at the Big Show working up some tears! The Number 1 Knucklehead has really worked on his acting. The end of the match seemed like a logical way to keep the strap on Daniel Bryan without giving him a win over the Big Show. Any guesses on how they resolve this mess?
12) Smackdown booking dominates Raw booking once again. Too many big names with not enough to do on Monday nights. Friday’s continue to prevail. Are we the only one’s that have noticed this?

big show worked up tears, sweat and some other stuff. Im surprised AJ didnt drown down there…
I wonder what the WWE has in store for this possible feud between Hunico and Ted DiBiase. I really wish they would make a stable with Hunico, Camacho, Primo and Epico. With Rosa, of course (yank it over my head!) But this could be a good feud. They may have to find a partner for DiBiase. I was very impressed with Hunico on the headset doing some commentary.
Again, another solid show. Better show than RAW once again.
They are definitely piping in the cheering, I didn’t see one person cheering in the crowd. They looked very uninterested and his outfit is very unflattering to his package. They need to drop this act, let him hide out for maybe a month or 2 years to let everyone forget about this travesty.
I didn’t really like the ending of Smackdown. But what else could they do since it’s no DQ and Show was dominating Bryan the entire time. But the crowd… the hell. Chanting “She’s ok” while they were getting the stretcher. Way to just give the show that’s trying to entertain you with a soap opera type drama the middle finger.
I’m glad Otunga won tonight. Santino can go away.
I think Drew McIntyre will feud with wade Barrett or sheamus next or go to raw or take time off but i really went to see him at WM28
The “funkasaurus”…. I don’t want to speak ill of anyone but he NEEDS to have his ass handed to him. Clay, I thought, would come out and be this monster heel. I was actually looking forward to see how he would progress. Shame.
What the hell is going on with Big Show, Daniel B. and AJ? Add Mark Henry to the mix and this feels like it could be yet another botched angle.
