How's SmackDown Gonna Come Up With This One?...

Happy Friday, Enthusiasts! How’s it going for you?   Mine worked out better than I thought it would, I can honestly say that.   Anyway, we’ve got a little bit before the Go-Home Shows for TLC and surprisingly enough, RAW has been doing a solid job of entertaining of late.   I’m a little shocked.   I don’t want to get too ahead of things because this may be the best of it but if I didn’t know better, the WWE may actually be establishing a train of thought.   I know.   It’s hard to digest.   But someone is starting to actually think about the presentation of this mess. This week’s RAW was good about tying off its ends this past Monday and so that leaves SmackDown to match and/or up the ante.   Unfortunately, I’m not sure that it can do that with what it’s offering.   I don’t have a problem with Roman Reigns and Baron Corbin; they probably have to get used to each other anyway so all they have to do is stay loose and have fun.   You know it’s clear that though The Fiend is p

Less cleaning up RAW ’s mess 😉 Greetings Enthusiasts! How does this Tuesday go for you?   I can’t say I can complain.   As for RAW , my complaints are minimal as well.   If anything, I’m a little surprised at how coherent the show was. This pending partnership with FOX appears to be getting WWE Creative into a more streamlined groove.   The action is actually starting to make sense.   You can start to see a train of thought.   It’s exciting and I hope the trend continues.   Was I cool with all the content?   Meh, it’s a start so I’m not gonna pick it a part.   It’s also wrestling so, I’m not trying use this for the basis for a thesis statement either.   It just has to make “enough sense”.   It doesn’t have to completely check out.   To be honest, for me, picking on Drake Maverick backstage at catering was the best bit.   They need to have more fun like that. In any case, tonight, we’ll see what SmackDown has to say for themselves after getting their asses handed to them.

There It Is. It's Official! RAW Is Supreme! Now, onto Other Business...

A Merry Monday to You, Enthusiasts! How’s everyone doing?   Well, Survivor Series 2018 has come & went and I have to say that I’m not upset with what was displayed.   I was a little surprised RAW swept, though.   I’d thought they would make it a little more interesting in terms of competition but it appears that wasn’t really the point this time.   I do believe the point of last night was to establish some sort of overlying plot(s).    We had Nia Jax, accepting her unofficial title of "FaceBreaker."   Finn Bálor takes steps to bolster himself during the Elmination Match and Daniel Bryan manages to keep a straight face as he’s served up for turning heel.   Notice how many of We the Audience are now wondering what happens next.   That is the question because if it doesn’t have anything to do with last night, then the WWE is not so much changing as it is digging in its heels.   It’s an interesting time.   I’m curious to see what they do with it.   Let’s hope there’s som
