  Happy Saturday, Enthusiasts! We had a solid SmackDown lead us into today’s events and the scant card makes me think that there are more surprises to come.

Now, all the regular readers know I don’t bother to run down every match but I’ll talk about the 3 I feel are the matches to watch or at the very least, interest me.
