      My thoughts on the show tonight:

      Jericho is a class guy and did SmackDown a solid by putting Kofi over. Pretty decent match too.

      Chavo is irrelevant and all Kane is good for anymore is destroying irrelevant guys like him and putting over young guys like McIntyre.

      Both of the guys from Cryme Tyme suck and nobody cares what they have to say, especially me.

      Morrison also did SmackDown a solid by putting over Rhodes and that was a very good match.

      Edge was stale as a face and it seems like his heel turn was so forced that nobody bought it. Christian was so much better than him during that segment and it wasn't even close. Give Christian a damn title run already. Hell, even if it's transitional, the guy deserves it.

      Kelly Kelly may be good looking, but I still think Beth Phoenix is more fun to watch wrestle and both Michelle McCool and Layla are more fun to look at. McCool works the crowd almost as good as the male heels do, really.

      Dolph Ziggler is the most underrated guy in the ring in the WWE. Too bad he gets stuck with Hornswoggle duty on SmackDown.

      Chris Masters is completely and utterly worthless.

      Matt Hardy is a certified jobber to the stars and Drew McIntyre is on a roll. The only way that Hardy wins the IC title is just to pass it on to one of the other deserving heels on SmackDown (Rhodes, Ziggler, etc.) so Drew can take a run at the WHC later.

      MVP is as corny as the state of Iowa and is boring both on the mic and in the ring. Mysterio is also the most bland wrestler in the WWE. CM Punk deserves better competition and he deserves it now.

      Jack Swagger got some pretty damn good heat and is a decent champion in my eyes. I don't think Big Show will beat him unless, again, it is in a transitional role. Christian and Swagger would have made for a much more interesting program.

        ^ on the money.

        I thought that was a pretty damn good show.

        Edge/Christian segment was awesome, and Christian was just freakin' awesome!

        Swagger's little vignettes were awesome, and his end promo was fantastic. I could not BELIEVE the heat he was getting! Unreal.

        Don't like Big Show being named the #1 contender, but eh.....I guess that's gonna be the problem with Smackdown. No true Main Event faces, esp. with Taker out/injured/resting/whatever.

        Mysterio and MVP are worthless, yeah I said it.

        Christian/Punk would be a pretty bad *** feud too, maybe that'd be better. Christian/Ziggler would be great too.

          Anyone could get heat like that if they were constantly shown on a TV show saying meaningless things with a lisp. They booed because they don't want to see it, not because he delivered a good heel promo.

            From talking about his Eagle scout achievement to his man-to-man-talk with his dad at age 2, Swagger's promos were pure gold. His feud with Show is only going to help things. I just wish Morrison was still around on SD.

              agreed.

              "New" Swagger > Old Swagger. I like the cocky, achievement riddled dude more than the cocky idiot who just ran around beating his chest getting beat by everyone and anyone.

              I cant believe they left Morrison off smackdown. Hopefully he can get into a decent feud on raw to help push him but the way i see it theres like 10 people ahead of him on raw, and there would be like 2 or 3 on smackdown.

                Definitely.

                It's funny that in the "2010 WWE Season" thread I was talking about how even though the ECW Championship is considered a world championship it has never been on the same level as the WWE and World titles (which are on the same level as one another).

                Edge was bragging about being a 9 time champion (combining his WWE and World titles). He asked Christian (former ECW champion) how many world titles he's won, and he replied "none... but when I finally do...".

                  Not only that, but he was NWA Champion when he was in TNA.

                    Dislimb, I'm with you about Jericho and Morrison; they were pros in putting over Kofi and Rhodes. Both were good matches.

                    MVP needs to go back to being the cocky heel. He's too bland as a face. Mysterio will always serve a purpose. As long as he stays away from the WHC, I'm cool with him.

                    Christian is gold, as is Punk. Punk-Christian would be an awesome feud.

                    Liking Swagger more every week. "I won the NFL's Punt Pass and Kick when I was 12. It's true, look it up." lol.

                      Jericho is certainly a real professional and Morrison strikes me as a cool guy who isn't too full of himself either, especially considering how he broke into the business. Both of them will have solid futures on Raw this year.

                      MVP needs to go back to being the cocky heel. He's too bland as a face. Mysterio will always serve a purpose. As long as he stays away from the WHC, I'm cool with him.
                      MVP is TERRIBLE as a face. Absolutely, positively terrible. He is just so corny and predictable and I don't find anything he has to say even remotely funny. Plus, he's not that good of a wrestler to begin with. Mysterio does serve a purpose as the top draw on SmackDown for the kiddies (second biggest draw in the WWE besides Cena for kids under 12 I'm sure) but he shouldn't be in a program with CM Punk who is a completely adult oriented character.

                      Christian is gold, as is Punk. Punk-Christian would be an awesome feud.
                      That's what I was hoping for. I would have liked to have seen Christian pick up the strap from Swagger and in the meantime Punk would end his feud with Mysterio. Then Christian and Punk would go at it for the WHC and have a solid program with each other, with Punk eventually regaining the title.

                      Liking Swagger more every week. "I won the NFL's Punt Pass and Kick when I was 12. It's true, look it up." lol.
                      That was absolutely hilarious! His promos get better by the week. I really hope he holds onto the title for a while, or at least doesn't lose it to Big Show.

                        I don't see Swagger losing to Big Show. I think WWE did a good job with Big Show's face turn, though. Having him KO Miz, Jericho, Edge and Swagger in the same week was a nice touch.

                          This week will be the first week with all Smackdown guys (no Raw draftee leftovers), so I'd consider it the real beginning of the new era for SD. It'll be interesting to see how they do.

                          Re: MVP

                          He FINALLY has a new finisher. Regardless of his character being boring or not, "the playmaker" needed to go. I'm happy it's finally gone. All hail the 305!

                            That's all fine and dandy but it doesn't make him suck any less than he did before. The guy is just a terrible cornball as a face and was only slightly better as a heel. I usually like at least something about all heels, but has always been beyond bland to me. It's cool though, that dude will never get another big push as long as he stays with the WWE.

                              I always wanted MVP to be the leader of a new Nation of Domination. Give him the IC title and a midcard stable.

                              I agree though that he's always lacked something since coming to the WWE.
