WWE Smackdown Review 3/14/14

Note: Well after sleeping for hours and doing some other things, it is time to watch WWE Smackdown. After seeing WWE NXT, I think WWE Smackdown needs to be revamped. Why? Because people watch NXT like it is the B show. This is the C show of the WWE. So it is still the road to Wrestlemania and hopefully we get some filler matches for the PPV. Also I should say before this start that I am determined to see WWE Smackdown off Syfy by the end of the year. You know how weird it is to watch some crazy movie then Smackdown. That's like watching the Kardashian show then watching the Divas show. Here's WWE Smackdown...

Match#1: Sandow vs. Seth Rollins
Winner: Seth Rollins
(So you want to punish a wrestler for not going into a ring full of people last Monday? Here you go, Damien Sandow. This was Triple H's way to show people that he is the boss and no one in WWE is safe. People assume this was the change in character for Damien Sandow. It was not. Seth Rollins can wrestle but WWE killed his indy nature. Moving on...)

Match#2: Big E. vs. Fandango
Winner: Big E.
(This was so quick and painless. Thank you Big E. for making this painless. Moving on...)

Match#3: Real Americans vs. Cody Rhodes and Goldust
Winners: Cody Rhodes and Goldust
(This was actually a good match but it has been seen over and over. If the Real Americans are breaking up, then Cesaro needs to be himself and have a killer match with Roman Reign or Seth Rollins. Until then, please speed up this tension and eventual break up. Moving on...)

Match#4: Kofi Kingston vs. Bray Wyatt
Winner: Bray Wyatt
(Bray kills Kofi. This was a physical match. Sad to see Kofi job to Bray Wyatt. This was a decent match to be in the middle of the show. )

Match#5: Nikki Bella vs. Tamina Snuka
Winner: Nikki Bella
(This match would have been better if Tamina won. AJ Lee and Tamina are showing tension and could break up like Gail Kim and Lei'd Tapa. I like seeing AJ Lee and Tamina together. All good things do have to come to an end. Moving on....)

Match#6: Dolph Ziggler vs. Alberto Del Rio
Winner: Dolph Ziggler
(This was the best match of the night. Even though they faced for the WHC title and being #1 for that title. This was actually better to see but we all know that ADR is going to leave soon and that would be a good thing because he is going to be better elsewhere. Like I sad, WWE kills guys with talent and makes them wrestle with kid gloves on. Dolph might be out of the doghouse with Triple H. )

Main Event: Kane vs. Big Show
Winner: Big Show
(These men have had classic matches with each other and as partners. These men are the big men of the company. Now, I will admit that this was a classic match. So much so that it was weird seeing Kane as he is not as he was. This was a good main event but I am learning that it is funny that this was the main event. So what? We cannot be graced with the presence of RKO, Batista, or anyone that is truly in the main event. This was basically a match that was setup by events of last week. Also, it should be said that having the Shield at ringside is not a good thing if they are forced to be there. Also Kane messed up trying to chokeslam Seth Rollins. Time to end this review. )

Final Thoughts: I am going to admit that watching Smackdown is like getting beat up by a mob of people most weeks. It is hard to see how a two hour show can basically be ok but three hours is overkill. Still stunned as to way WWE Raw is three hours and waste the first hour with shitty matches most weeks. Tonight just made my point about why NXT should be on network TV and WWE Smackdown should be the internet show. Most of these matches were not good as a whole. I think it is sad to see SSDD in WWE. As a kid, it was different because SSDD to a kid is just like auto repeat on a MP3 player. See you all for WWE Raw.
