    Top 10 SmackDown Live Moments from Little Rock August 2017

    With Monday Night Raw taking place in Memphis, the SmackDown Live crew invaded Little Rock, Arkansas. Since the SmackDown Live doesn’t have a PPV until October we should get a few PPV-quality matches on free TV until then. We learned that next week, Shinsuke Nakamura will take on Randy Orton to see who’s the #1 contender for the WWE title. Before that, they teamed up to battle Rusev & Jinder Mahal, but they were beat down at the beginning of the night. A.J. Styles brought back the U.S. Open Challenge that was made famous by John Cena.

Just like Monday Night Raw, this will be my last review for now. Let’s get started!! Good Randy Orton: Orton opened up Smackdown Live talking about Bray Wyatt and how he supposed to be scaring people. During the promo, Wyatt appeared on the TitanTron and cut a…

    Daddy’s Hangout NXTTakeover: XXX Review

    The WWE had the wrestling world buzzing for the weekend. On Friday night, they debuted their Thunderdome concept on SmackDown Live. The Thunderdome concept was a big hit for me and it was highlighted by Jeff Hardy capturing his 5th Intercontinental Championship. Tonight, the WWE has a stacked card for the 2020 edition of Summerslam. Last night was the 30th edition of NXTTakeover and it was highlighted by Keith Lee defending the NXT championship against Karrion Kross. NXTTakeover: XXX had stacked card itself, but with no crowd my expectations weren’t too high. Io Shairi defended the NXT Women’s Championship against Dakota Kai.

    Last night, I was pulling double duty when it came to sports. On my iPad, Money in the Bank was playing, and the Raptors top the Buck in a Game 3 double overtime thriller.

Seeing it was hours before SmackDown, we knew that something major would happen. Of course, he opened SmackDown Live with an emotional promo about his journey from having to retire to working his ass off to get cleared. The promo was awesome, and it set…
