victor Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Sounds like a good show. Thursday! * Jerry Lawler, Byron Saxton and Michael Cole are on commentary. Lawler got a big pop. * Byron Saxton interviewed Daniel Bryan in the ring. * Daniel Bryan defeated Kane by DQ when Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble hit the ring. Big Show and Seth Rollins went to attack Bryan but he retreated. Roman Reigns came out and stood next to Bryan for a face off with the heels. Triple H came out and announced a six-man main event for later. * Damien Sandow, The Miz and Alicia Fox defeated Naomi and The Usos. Sandow got a pop almost as big as Bryan. * Paul Heyman comes out. Heyman talks about what happened on RAW but Seth Rollins comes out to confront him. Rollins is heated and wants to cash in on Brock Lesnar tonight but he’s not here. Heyman cut an awesome promo and the two teased working together after the Royal Rumble. * Natalya defeated Nikki Bella in a non-title match. * Bad News Barrett retained over Sin Cara in what was said to be a very fun match. * Dean Ambrose, Daniel Bryan and Roman Reigns defeated Kane, Big Show and Seth Rollins in a really good main event. The babyfaces all got big pops and everyone worked hard. SmackDown ended with the faces celebrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Or it is a heel brazenly challenging someone he knows isn't there in order to seem tough. Seth can't be serious, he knows Brock is not at a Smackdown. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People said it made sense for Rollins not to cash in. Nobody said the writers were smart enough to understand why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebbie Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I do think it's smart to put Reigns back in tag matches. His promos are actively trying to bury him but one superman punch undos half a promo. Or whatever the conversion of 'dead crowd' to 'huge pop' is.

Pete Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Yeah, he definitely had a stronger aura when they hid him in the trios matches. To the point where you could hear the fans going "ohhhhh shhhhhhhhhh" whenever he tagged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Harms Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Or it is a heel brazenly challenging someone he knows isn't there in order to seem tough. Seth can't be serious, he knows Brock is not at a Smackdown. Again it's so obvious I don't see how so-called smart wrestling fans can't work it out.

Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Is it asking too much to get f'n Kane out of the main event scene? Dude, Kane is so grabbing the brass ring right now. When one of the young boys knocks him off his perch, then he can be out of the main event scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth is no cerebral assassin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overly Critical Man Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 One day, they'll have him come out with a t-square and blueprints to really drive that point home. Just like how Aaron Neville will wear a mouse costume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 An architect gimmick in the 90's would have been money. I can kinda see a heel architect knocking people out with a loaded blueprint carrying tube and tagging with IRS. It's really a time waster debating what smart wrestling fans would do vs. what WWE writers would do. Based on the past several years of RAW, I'm skeptical most WWE writers are wrestling fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Per Meltz: HHH came out at the end of the show and announced Bryan vs. Kane for next week, and if Bryan didn't win, he's out of the Rumble. DUN DUN DUNNNNN. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overly Critical Man Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Kane has been near the top of the card or featured in a prominent role for almost 20 years now. I'm pretty sure that's the best indication he DOES in fact have the "it" factor and the intangibles and that's he's grabbed a brass ring. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Given how much noise they've made in recent years about wanting to get Smackdown off Friday night/back on Thurs, I assumed they would kick off the move with a live show. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUN DUN DUNNNNN. This will happen every show until the Rumble. If D Bryan wins the Rumble they will threaten his Mania match every show until Mania. It would be great if they handled this story line the same way they handled HHH return from the quad tears. Guy comes back, crushed everyone and everythinng, wins title. Oh yeah. I forgot he came back with 30lbs more muscle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallacy! Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 So Seth Rollins basically traded in teaming with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose for teaming with Big Show and Kane. Seems legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He became so distraught that he ended up joining the Van Buren Boys. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It" "Intangibles" "Brass ring" I'd offer a drinking game everytime these words are brought up anywhere wrestling-related, but if attempted we'd die of alcohol poisoning. That said, barring any stupid backstage segments it doesn't sound like a bad show. Going to be nice to see Daniel wrestling again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
