This match isnt drawing me in for whatever reason.

 

[Morfeo]

That was some weak knees from Charlotte.

 

[ramoisdead]

Yea, like why it's happening. The whole "in order to face the champion you must first........face the champion" thing is really dumb.

The way they keep going back to Natalya, Carmella, and Tamina, I'm guessing those three are going to interfere this match and thus the Charlotte face turn happens.

People are cheering Charlotte instead of booing her.

 

[RecRoulette]

Just got home and Juicy Jinder is the #1 contender!?

If Jinder can succeed there's hope for anyone! SmackDown is the real land of opportunity.

 

[blackaroni]

Naomi is having Aksana flashbacks.

 

[somedevil]

Mahal is only 30:

Him saying he is rich could lead to a bollywood heel faction.

What are they planning.

Cause it sucks

 

[sf2fanatic]

End this match please

Well you know who's going to win and you know you'll get to watch the match again later with actual stakes.

It's why the "fight the champ for the title shot" is always always always stupid.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

clean win

 

[ramoisdead]

Yeah. At the beginning, these girls were red hot for each other, fighting and whatnot. This match so far is more choreographed than what we saw.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Meh

 

[EnlightenedMint]

What a shocking win

 

[blackaroni]

WTF? No interference? So the same match next week but with the title on the line?

 

[slabrock]

 

[dream]

Booking Naomi as if she's as credible or talented as Charlotte Flair is one of the least believable things I've seen in quite some time.

 

[Zabka]

Lame fucking lame shit

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

It's for Backlash I believe.

 

[Dark Ninja]

Can they stop saying Charlotte Flair

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Are you ready for the five time five time five time five time FIVE TIME women's champion?!

 

[Prompto]

Beating champions to become a number 1 contender is so stupid.

 

[Tom Nook]

Charlotte becomes champ next week?

 

[ramoisdead]

I guess Primo and Epico are going by their names instead of the Shining Stars. I guess that's a positive??

 

[Wagram]

Charlotte's great, but you can really tell the difference between one of the best women on SD Live compared to the best (three) they had on Raw. There's a lack of energy in the ring which in turn hurts synergy.

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Charlotte actually finally won clean on free TV. SD the land of opportunities indeed.

 

[Dark Ninja]

AJ only wrestles in sponsored matches. GET DAT MONEY $$$$

 

[excelsiorlef]

I really like Natural Selection as a finisher out of nowhere

 

[somedevil]

Charlotte becomes champ next week?

Backlash. They have 4 more weeks of build for the show.

I guess you are right. That was just whatever.

I have forgotten who the SD tag champs are.

 

[Syder]

Booking Naomi as if she's as credible or talented as Charlotte Flair is one of the least believable things I've seen in quite some time.

Less believable than Shane being on AJ's level, for example, because WWE fucks with suspension of disbelief very frequently, in my opinion.

 

[MoonsaultSlayer]

Actually, this works. Next match, Naomi can retain because maybe SHE needs interference to win and continues the feud.

 

[sf2fanatic]

So Charlotte and bliss gets title shots. Is that a slap on the face to the other wrestlers?

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

No Becky and Nakamura. Smh.

 

[Toki767]

So Charlotte and bliss gets title shots. Is that a slap on the face to the other wrestlers?

Jinder Mahal is getting a title shot.

That's the biggest slap in the face to everyone.

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

LOL

 

[Beefy]

Jobbers

 

[Wagram]

Bliss isn't winning though. It's a layover for Sasha and Bayley at Summerslam.

 

[blackaroni]

This better lead to something.

 

[Skatterd]

The elusive Colon branding

 

[LiQuid!]

OMG is it the Shining Stars' time too? Smackdown could truly be the land of opportunity for minority wrasslers!

 

[sf2fanatic]

Jinder Mahal is getting a title shot.

That's the biggest slap in the face to everyone.

It's going to be either him or Nak.

 

[Tom Nook]

They're interfering next week.

 

[dream]

I think Shane kind of works because of nostalgia; we remember him having a number of **** matches. Whereas we remember Naomi as a Funkadactyl.

 

[Beefy]

SD tag team division is dead

 

[BewareTheBatsie]

Huh. The match is set for next week. I guess the three break it up.

 

[somedevil]

Wonder if this faction is coming back:

 

[slabrock]

lol still have the shining stars trunks
