WWE Raw & Smackdown April Thread

That was a good opening match with Rhea & Naomi.

They're clearly setting up that Liv is the "weak link," eventually Rhea will get frustrated and turn on her.

When did Drew Gulak move over to a backstage announcer role? Yeah, it'd probably be in WWE's best interest to keep an experienced, talented person and capable teacher like him around.

Madcap Moss bringing the neckbreaker back as a finisher? I'm here for it even if it doesn't look as good as Rick Rude's.

I guess Xia Li & Aliyah both ended up in catering with Shotzi?

I'm hoping Vince has better in store for Raquel & Lacey once past this initial push.

I don't think I've ever seen Riddle have a bad match.

He's a lot like Xavier Woods. In the sense that he's consistently good & always puts on at least solid matches.

Solid episode of Smackdown, thankfully. Seems like they're going to cool down the Reigns/Nakamura angle until after Backlash. Makes sense to give Reigns more time to heal up whatevers ailing him and hopefully he won't need surgery.

Charlotte on the mic still isn't good, but that line wasn't one I've heard before.

"I DIDN'T tap out! I was fixing my bra!"

That classic SD video was cool having the old SD theme playing for it.

And McAfee calling Butch a "Rabid Wolverine". Um...that's taken by whatshisname. Hopefully thats just a slip of the tongue and not his actual new nickname, because that's not fair to him being given a nickname associated with Benoit, even if many fans today weren't watching, or maybe not even alive, in 2007.

It's still a great nickname and maybe they can (which I think they won't) get it over with someone that isn't a IRL psychopath.

And it does mesh well with Butch's hard hitting and physical style of wrestling.

Good news, LA Knight is coming up to the main roster

Bad news, he's gonna be the manager of.....Mace.

That's about as random as it gets.

If they want him as a manager, that's one thing, because his promos are great, but for Mace? I'd have him as a manager for a Ricochet or someone who is talented but could use a manager.
