Sandow is on the bottom rung, pure comedy, not meant to be seriously as a wrestler. There is no way back up from there.

Then again not everything works out for some people:
-
Kind of a so-so show.
* Seth Rollins kicks off SmackDown but gets attacked by Dean Ambrose. Randy Orton comes out and makes the save until Roman Reigns evens the odds. It looks like we’ve got a tag match later.
* Big E defeated Cesaro by count out.*Bo Dallas Press slams Torito.* Sheamus defeated Alberto Del Rio to retain the United States Title.* Chris Jericho comes out and cuts a promo, taunting Bray Wyatt. Jericho gets a big pop. The Miz interrupts him and ends up taking a Codebreaker. Jericho leaves to another pop.* AJ Lee comes out to a massive pop from the Jersey crowd. She cuts a promo and defeats Eva Marie by submission. Fans chanted “you can’t wrestle” at Eva. There were also CM Punk chants. Paige was on commentary and came into the ring to congratulate AJ before awkwardly leaving. Apparently AJ played the babyface here.* Damien Sandow comes out as Bruce Springsteen and sings “Born In the USA.” Rusev and Lana interrupt. Lana cuts an anti-American 4th of July promo. Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter interrupt to a big pop. Zeb jokes on Russia and the crowd is very much into this. There were loud “USA” and “We The People” chants here.* The main event is Randy Orton vs. Dean Ambrose. Seth Rollins interferes and hits Ambrose with his briefcase. Orton and Rollins beat down Ambrose until Roman Reigns makes the save. Reigns hits Orton with a Superman punch to end SmackDown. -
If Warrior came up today, the camera would be shaking right along with him like it does now. I knew someone was coming when someone pulled Zeb Colter out of the way just before Kane's pryo went off. Cena being champ is the only thing that makes sense since he has to defend vs Lesnar. at Summerslam. Unless Lesnar winds up costing him the belts before then.

I tried to watch MITB this morning but all I kept getting was Media Error Video not Avialble, It didn't work for me until the afternoon.
-
Bad News for Bad News Barrett, it looks like he suffered a separated Shoulder in his match, it looks like he may be out for Sunday if not longer.
-
Looks like a couple of good matches, Ambrose vs Barrett and Kane vs Reigns
* Seth Rollins, Randy Orton and Triple H kick off SmackDown. They talk about Money In the Bank and announce Bad News Barrett vs. Dean Ambrose.
* Bad News Barrett comes out, insulting Pittsburgh sports teams and some of their legendary players. Dean Ambrose gets the win with Dirty Deeds. After the match, Jack Swagger runs out and attacks Barrett. Ambrose lays Swagger out with a ladder. Seth Rollins runs in through the crowd, threw Ambrose off the steps and nailed a curb stomp. Barrett ended up taken to the back after an apparent shoulder injury.
* Paige defeated Cameron. After the match, Cameron tried to pick another fight with Paige.
* They air a video for Connor The Crusher.
* Sheamus vs. Bray Wyatt is next. Sheamus won by disqualification when Erick Rowan and Luke Harper broke up a Cloverleaf that Bray was locked in. The Usos ran out to make the save and celebrated with Sheamus.
* Dolph Ziggler and Rob Van Dam vs. Cesaro and Alberto Del Rio is next with Paul Heyman on commentary. Del Rio gets the win for his team with a cross armbreaker on RVD. After the match, Cesaro laid Del Rio out.
* Rusev and Lana come out for an anti-American promo before Rusev squashes Sin Cara. There’s a glitch as Big E’s video plays earlier than it’s supposed to but he comes out and cuts a promo. Big E and Rusev meet in the middle of the ring but Lana calls Rusev away. Rusev tries to attack Big E from behind but Big E sees him coming and knocks Rusev out of the ring.
* Roman Reigns vs. Kane ends in a DQ when Randy Orton interrupts right before Reigns spearsKane. Reigns spears Orton instead. Kane chokeslammed Reigns and set up a ladder. He allowed Orton to climb up and pose with the titles. Orton goes to punt Reigns but gets speared. Kane also gets speared. Reigns poses with the titles to end SmackDown.
Connor the Crusher is kid who died of cancer not Connor from the Ascension.

Looks like a good show.
The show for Friday opened with John Cena in the ring. Eventually, Randy Orton, Cesaro, Sheamus, Roman Reigns and Alberto Del Rio came out. They teased Cena vs. Reigns. But Orton and Reigns ended up brawling to the back. Cesaro and Del Rio attacked Cena and Sheamus. Cena and Sheamus cleaned house and then they teased Cena vs. Sheamus.
Seth Rollins b Kofi Kingston
Dolph Ziggler b Bad News Barrett in a non-title match. Ziggler won clean with a roll-up but Barrett laid him out with the Bull hammer elbow after the match.
Adam Rose b Titus O'Neil in seconds. They did the same thing from the house shows where O'Neil wanted a rematch and got pinned in seconds.
Kane b Dean Ambrose with a choke slam after Ambrose went after Rollins at ringside doing commentary. Rollins laid Ambrose out with the curb stomp after the match.
Big E b Jack Swagger with the Big Ending quickly.
Summer Rae was backstage with Fandango and they started making out. Layla showed up and saw this and started to freak out.
Bo Dallas b Fandango. Layla wasn't there with Fandango. Then Summer Rae came out to dance with Fandango and Layla came out and attacked her. Layla slapped Fandango and Dallas pinned him after the Bodog.
Dallas did his big celebration and told Fandango how there are plenty of fish in the sea.
The Wyatts did a promo with Bray vowing they are taking all the belts.
They announced that next week on Raw they would announce all the participants in the second Money in the Bank match. Seth Rollins was the first guy announced for the match during Main Event.
3 on 4: Cena & Sheamus & Reigns b Orton & Wyatt & Del Rio & Cesaro when Reigns speared Del Rio for the pin. Crowd cheered Reigns but booed Cena.

parts look good other parts not so good.
* Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose open SmackDown and cut a promo similar to the one they did on RAW. Triple H appears on the big screen and announces Reigns vs. Bad News Barrett for right now.
* Bad News Barrett comes out for the match. Barrett takes a Superman punch. 3MB comes out and jumps Reigns. He fights back and takes them all out.
* Bray Wyatt vs. Dean Ambrose in a Money In the Bank qualifier will take place later tonight.
* Erick Rowan defeated Jey Uso and Uso appeared to be hurt but was likely just selling.
* Bo Dallas defeated R-Truth with the Bo-dog. The crowd was really into the match.
* Paul Heyman comes out and talks about The Streak ending. Cesaro says he’s here to fight.Sheamus interrupts them for a non-title match that was described as an awesome physical match. Cesaro won with a small package.
* Adam Rose defeated Fandango with his finisher. Summer Rae was dressed up as one of the Rosebuds and attacked Layla, beating her up pretty bad.
* Big E defeated Jack Swagger. Lana and Rusev came out during the match to taunt and yell at Big E.
* Alicia Fox squashed Aksana.
* Bray Wyatt vs. Dean Ambrose in a Money In the Bank qualifying match is next. Bray controlled a good part of the match. This was described as a crazy physical match. Seth Rollins came out to screw Ambrose and Wyatt hit Sister Abigail for the win. Wyatt qualifies for Money In the Bank. This appears to be when SmackDown went off the air.
I wish Reigns vs Barrett had gotten started, Bray vs Dean may be good.
-
Meltzer says Cena & Bray Wyatt will both be in the Money in the Bank match, I guess that leaves one slot.
-
Not much of a show. Cena's calling of the match was a bit too visible and audible for me.
Lana's pro Russian speech went on a bit too long for me
.Sandow's gimmick is really creative, did you notice JBL compare his dance/wrestling to Ricky Starr, but I think he called him Ricky Storm.
It would be nice if Cesaro would up with the belt but I think Orton will probably get it again.
-
And the WWE rolls on without Bryan.
* SmackDown opens with Triple H and Seth Rollins coming to the ring to the Evolution music. Rollins is still wearing his gear. Fans boo Rollins and call him a sell out. Triple H says he told us he wins. Rollins takes the mic and our correspondent says he seems cockier than usual but a little hesitant. Rollins gets a lot of heel heat here but says only he knows why he turned on The Shield. Dolph Ziggler interrupts to a pop.

Looks like an interesting show.
* The Shield kicks off SmackDown with a promo on Evolution and Payback. Roman Reigns says Evolution will pay for putting him through the table on RAW.

Heyman joins commentary as Intercontinental Champion Bad News Barrett and United States Champion Sheamus come out for their match. This match was described as a must-see brawl. There were big “Let’s go Sheamus, Bad News Barrett” dueling chants. Sheamus got the win after a finishing sequence that was described as “amazing.”
* Big E came out with an American flag and squashed Titus O’Neil. Before they began, Lana interrupted and cut a promo on Big E and America. They got huge heel heat and USA chants, according to our correspondent. She and Rusev watched the match from ringside.
* Adam Rose came out to his biggest pop yet, except for the UK, according to our correspondent. Rose went on to defeat Jack Swagger in a match and taunt Zeb Colter some more.
* Bray Wyatt vs. Jimmy Uso in a Last Man Standing match is next. This match gets the first CM Punk chants of the night. This was described as a good physical match. Wyatt destroyed Uso in front of the announce table and got the win to end SmackDown.
I sense a Big E heel turn coming to team with Rusev.

From her life before Lana:

Meltzer confirms Bryan's surgery is minimally invasive, not a big deal, he'll be back in 6 to 8 weeks.
-
It was okay just not that good. That Nattie Neidhart thing was awful, too soapy, they're trying to do more stuff like on E I guess.I thought Bryan's neck surgery thing was an excuse so he could go to on the European tour. Steph was about to strip him of the title before Kane brought him out. A way to get the title off of him without beating him.
-
The audience doesn't realize that Shaemus is now a heel, it happened on such a subtle level nobody saw it happen.
Remember Koslov? Rusev is likely gonna go the same route, in a few weeks, he'll be completely forgotten and gone. Except Lana. Instead of turning him into just another Nikolai Volkoff, they should have turned him into more of an Ivan Putski. But a good one.

Looks like a pretty good show. Barrett & Cesaro make a great tag team.
* SmackDown kicks off with a look at The Shield and The Wyatt Family from RAW.* Dean Ambrose vs. Sheamus for the WWE United States Title is up first. Sheamus gets the win clean with a Brogue Kick. Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins were not at ringside. This was a good match with the crowd behind Ambrose. Ambrose did a dive out of the ring at one point and barely made it in before the 10 count.* Cesaro and Bad News Barrett vs. Rob Van Dam and Big E is next. Paul Heyman is on commentary. Barrett runs down climate change on way to the ring and says like Big E, when the storms hit, he will be forgotten. Crowd is behind RVD and there are some Barrett chants. Cesaro pins Big E after hitting his finisher. Before that, RVD accidentally kicked Big E in the head. The match lasted less than 5 minutes.* We get a Daniel Bryan vs. Kane recap from Extreme Rules.* Lana comes out and says America should change and follow Vladimir Putin. Rusev squashes Kofi Kingston. Kofi got in little offense. A loud USA chant broke out during the match.* The Wyatt Family appears on the big screen. Bray Wyatt rambles about John Cena.* A Bo Dallas vignette airs.* Fandango and Layla defeated Santino Marella and Emma when Layla rolled up Emma.* Roman Reigns vs. Mark Henry is next. Reigns lifted Henry over his shoulders to show his strength and then dropped him into a Samoan Drop. Reigns hit a spear for the win.* Los Matadores come out with El Torito to a big pop. They're going to face Heath Slater, Drew McIntyre and Hornswoggle. Torito pins Slater for the clean win.* Seth Rollins vs. Batista is next. Crowd chants "you can't wrestle" at Batista.

Rollins hits the table. Batista rolls in ring, wins by count out.* After the match, Batista hits a Batista Bomb on Rollins as fans boo. Rollins sells an injury.* The Wyatt Family vs. The Usos and John Cena is next. The crowd was more pro-Cena than not. There was also a loud Usos chant. The match ends when a big brawl breaks out on the floor. One of the Usos gets hit with the lariat by Luke Harper for the clean win. Cena cuts a promo against The Wyatts after the match. He says Bray is afraid and didn't get the pinfall, he got his goons to get the win for him. SmackDown ends -
I actually liked the Bryan/Kane match for what it was. Bryan had to win since the Cena match ended on such a down note. Bryan/Kane however feels like filler material while they get ready for something else. I thought someone was gonna get put in the ice machine in the background.
The Cena match was just strange. This feud just drags on and on. I always thought involving kids in wrestling angles is always dangerous.

Clash of the Champions 2 airs on Tuesday. I'm happy they're finally adding more WCW content.
Smackdown Spoilers for 7/4/14
in WWE PROGRAMMING
Posted
Sheamus/Del Rio was a good match. Hard to pick a favorite in the A.J./Paige feud both seem to be heels. A.J.'s personality makes it hard for her to be a face. Lana's Russian accent has started to go in and out, I wonder if that's on purpose or accidental.
