Dolfan in NYC Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Today's episode of Smackdown was not super. But at least Naomi keeps making her entrance more and more awesome. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peck Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Didn't Mustafa Ali have something similar to that a few months back? Speaking of Mustafa Ali, where is Mustafa Ali? That's all I got for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Evans Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Braun winning the IC title was cool. Sami's reaction to Elias was funny. Good to see Naomi back and in the title picture. Looking forward to the Otis/Mandy date on Valentines day. They finally got Gran Metalik out of catering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eivion Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 The fatal 4-way tag was fun. Otis asking out Mandy and getting a yes was a neat moment. Braun/Shin was decent enough. I'm mostly just happy to see Braun finally win a singles title even if its 2-3 years later than he should have. Naomi's latest addition to her entrance was awesome. glad to see her vs. Bayley getting built. Naomi was exactly who Bayley was missing all these months as a face rival. Hopefully tonight was the end of the Roman vs. Corbin feud. Roman deserves something more interesting than 3-4 months feuding Corbin, and that is coming from someone who actually likes Corbin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurningBeard Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Remember when we thought Braun was so over he was ‘above’ the mid-card titles and it should be one of the main belts or nothing? And now it’s like ‘ meh’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 I slept through this one but came to long enough to hear them going on about dog food. Why in the living hell is THAT a thing? Is this death-throes WCW or something? Are they gonna have another Kennel from Hell match? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammerva Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 Seriously someone needs to Bruce Pritchard that it isn't 1987 and he isn't Jerry Jarrett. The FOX executives have to not be paying attention to this show because there is no way they though this is what they were getting Reigns has to win the title at Wrestlemania because the idea of going 3 or 4 months on a Baron Corbin mostly built around dog food and NOT getting some reward is almost criminal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 That Fatal 4 way tag had some really sloppy moments. Otis came in house of fire* and managed to bodyslam one of the Revival without using his arms. * Is it House Of Fire, or House Afire? I mean, they mean the same thing anyway, it doesn't matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Lord Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 (edited) I know I should have hated it, but the whole Corbin getting dumped with dog food thing had me laughing my ass off. All that was missing was a dog licking his face "ITS OK CORBIN...NOM NOM NOM". Edited February 1, 2020 by Phantom Lord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caley Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 So if you watch this show in Canada, they've been running ads for weeks about one of the upcoming shows featuring Baron Corbin vs. Roman Reigns where "the loser has to eat dog food!" and I thought "That's weird" followed by "I'm surprised they never did that on TV". I'd just like to point out that Corbin did not "Eat dog food", he had dog food poured over his head and thrown on him. He did not eat it. I want my money back. Since we all think Mandy is going to turn on Otis, it would be fun if she didn't, like the Alexa-Cross pairing. Just make them a happy couple. The only problem with that is that it would almost certainly lead to Sonya Deville being the evil, jealous lesbian angle but one thing at a time. I enjoyed Baron Corbin's shooty "jab" at the Usos being completely laughed off by the Usos. I also like that they basically just re-did the Baron Corbin-Chad Gable feud with Sheamus-Gable: short jokes, small face repeatedly losing to the big heel. The only thing they missed this time around was the good matches and shortening Gable's name some more. Maybe he can start calling himself "Short G", then "Sho G" and finally just "G". I guess this wasn't a bad show considering it was Smackdown without Bray Wyatt, Daniel Bryan, New Day, or Sasha Banks. I mean that's a LOT of people not on the show.

L_W_P Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 So where does Roman go from here if not staying with Corbin until the Chamber? I assume he wins there and takes the title from Bray at Mania. Oh how I wish they could just let guys take time off. Keep Roman and Corbin off TV and annouce both will be back for the Chamber match. When is Xavier Woods back? I feel like New Day vs Bloodline is a super fun 6 man feud for post Mania while The Fiend takes some time away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bret challenging for the world belt Owen defending the IC Belt Pillman "if he loses he wears a dress until he wins again" vs Goldust Davey Boy "eats dog food if he loses" vs Shamrock[?] and I don't think they bothered with anything for Neidhart though I assumed he was "manager" for some/all of the other four Davey eating dog food if he lost being separate (and from a totally different run) as the time he got rock bottomed into a tray of dog shit It's a struggle to keep 'em separate until I talk them out to remind myself (which first requires convincing myself this shit is worth a reminder...)

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 I think Anvil signed a contract that wasn't worth the paper it was written on with some local fed that had local TV. So he vanished from TV around this time to honour his commitments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
