Smackdown has got a lot to live up to, but as we learned last night, any man with two hands stands a fighting chance.

A feud with Roman would be perfect for Sami. But it's still not clear what their future plans are for The Big Dawg.
You still need a chin apparently.

Two cannibals are eating a clown. One turns to the other and says "does something taste funny to you?"
"Moreover, seeing as how Raw is in the midst of creating a WWE Universal Championship to offset the void created in the absence of the WWE Title, couldn’t SmackDown Live conceivably create addition titles as well — for the good of say their many talented tag teams and elite Women’s division? With Daniel Bryan and Shane McMahon, anything is possible."
OK so they just fight for nothing then."Moreover, seeing as how Raw is in the midst of creating a WWE Universal Championship to offset the void created in the absence of the WWE Title, couldn’t SmackDown Live conceivably create addition titles as well — for the good of say their many talented tag teams and elite Women’s division?

You need belts.
I really liked this part of the match, but without that context this is a pretty awkward sketch.

Sami looks like PlagueOfGripes in that painting.

Roman looked more Samoan then ever last night. Samoan meaning FAT
The champion of Universal Studios.

We haven't seen it. It's the Raw title. I'm guessing they wanted a title that wasn't ambiguously the same belt as the WWE Championship the way the old World Heavyweight Championship was.

I don't understand the vehement opposition from folks to multiple titles. What's the big deal?
It reminds people of the last brand split and how much it sucked.
But you need titles. They need a reason to wrestle.

The last time they had multiple titles they all looked weak as fuck, particularly given how in vogue constant title switches were.
Are you planning on actually watching the show from last night? It was actually good for once.
I read the results ahead of time and still enjoyed it.

I agree that titles are needed. Also rewatching older Smackdowns I think the titles they had were treated pretty well overall, at least in 2003.
I guess, but this is now. And no titles is just as lame.

Don't act like you don't know.
I know you hid in fear of my challenge I laid down to you last night.

He looks like he put on 10 pounds over his suspension. He still doesn't look bad tho.
Nah. I'll catch the Slams in August, though!
Lay it down one more time, daddeh.

I don't think Roman can do Splash Mountain effectively to everyone. I can't see him doing it to Strowman, for instance.

Between demonic Zayn painting and Neville's faction/Neville and Company I just had quite a hearty chuckle.
To continue this good mood we need Ambrose to take the Kane event test.

Looks like SD has ringside announcers.
There's only a handful of truly huge guys on the roster these days. It's much more feasible now.

Cena vs Bray vs Styles. Bray wins. Give my boy a main event push for once.

It's too late.
I was saying it would be Finn vs. Roman with Finn going over clean. I would've won. You should change your avatar to Mojo Rawly to redeem yourself from cowardice.
Damn, doesn't really look... new/different.
So it's just the PPV arrangement of the HD set? What do the PPVs do?
I really hate that curved entranceway.
The PPVs were just the RAW set with different color schemes if I remember right.

What? That looks like the same thing.

James obviously never heard of Nick Newell:
Literally whooping ass with just one hand.
Left Twix flows caramel over cookie while Right Twix cascades caramel over cookie.
PPV sets are the RAW set with the ramp removed and the sides slightly rearranged. Seems that's the SD set now.
They've had the HD set since 2008, it's really overdue for a completely new design.

imo The Arc looks stupid. It didn't do anything for the entrances last night.
SD doesn't have the stage and ramp either.
