I found it strange that they edited the boos in for Del Rio on Raw, but not on Smackdown.

Me too. It was weird. Im glad they didn't do the boos again though.

It was nice to see La Mistica again, very fitting way to finish the match and having two Sin Cara's.

I didn't watch, can you please explain how the match went and the ending.

Re: Official WWE Smackdown Thread 2011

La Mistica (spinning headscissors into a Fujiwara armbar) is his finisher from his CMLL days. He used it to defeat and unmask the impostor Sin Cara in Mexico City while they chanted "Mistico", his CMLL ringname.

Why are they having Beth and Natalia do the Laycool thing? It's hard for me to buy Natalia as a heel, she seems way to cheery. I am also having trouble buying Eve as a bad a**...although she does have a fine...well you know..I know people don't care as much about the Divas, but they do work hard and I think there is potential for some good matches there.

Plus damn Eve is nice on the eyes....

Is the Miz and R-Truth's tag team finisher actually called the "Lil Jimmy finale?" That's what Michael Cole said it was.

If so that is pretty funny.

Descent show last night but not as good as last weeks.

Orton and the zig zag man put on a good show. I really think Ziggler is a cross between Mr. Perfect and Shawn Michaels. He could ascend to the top of this business imo. Absolutely love that he is doing the sweet chin music. I wonder how Shawn feels about that though?? I bet he's cool with it.

Christian and Punk was fantastic. Man those guys can go. I'm so happy Christian is where he is at this point. He deserves. He sells so well.

I loved Sheamus when he was a heel, but I'm starting to hate this "Great White" Sheamus. Sick of all the smiling and laughing. Not to mention all the folk tales. Just weird coming from someone who used to be a monster heel.

Oh, and has anyone mentioned Booker T is horrible. Ahh Shucky Ducky Quack Quack!!! I'm trade marking that.

I'd imagine HBK said it was OK for Ziggler to use it. It's a nice tribute and like you said, Ziggler has that HBK quality to him, and I'm sure HBK sees it, too.

I agree with you on Sheamus. I haven't watched in several weeks (boycotting until I read about storyline improvements) but I do recall those promos and not liking them. Trying too hard to be funny, IMO, and those folk tales are goofy.

Of course we all know HBK is a huge Dolph Ziggler fan.

I still love Sheamus. I think he's gold either way. Prefer him as a heel though.

But it's not weird when Triple H goes from cerebral assassin, McMahon-Helmsley era, Evolution heel to the foolin around havin' a good time face with Shawn Michaels in DX? He may not be telling folk stories, but he was still joking around about sausages and what not.

Re: Official WWE Smackdown Thread 2011

Announcers talking about Twitter followers during matches is just disgusting and has no place at all. None.

It is different because Triple H was in DX before the big heel turn, so you knew he always had that prankster side to him.

I have no issues with WWE turning Sheamus face; it's just those promos become very repetitive and after 1 or 2, aren't really funny.

Agreed 100%. Brag about Twitter all you want, WWE, but it does NOTHING in terms of helping your business, either via TV ratings or PPV buys and that is an absolute fact.
