Read on for my thoughts on yesterday's Superstars and Smackdown.
Superstars:
That was a better tag match than I was expecting. I was pleasantly surprised. Clay still seems kind of limited, but other than that things were good.
Natalya vs. Tamina was nice, as they actually told a story. I think they could have done an even better job with more time, but that's true of a lot of matches.
Smackdown:
Pretty good opening promo-off. The Fandango character could be going places. Santino was fine.
Cool finisher from Fandango. Glad he beat Santino.
Nice post-match. I can't believe I didn't have faith in the Fandango character.
More authority figure tension. I really hope this is leading to a huge heel turn for Teddy. After all these years of TAG TEAM MATCH, PLAYA and DA UNDATAKAH, PLAYA and HOLLA HOLLA HOLLA, it's time for him to snap.
Not a bad champion vs. champion match. I wouldn't mind a mini-feud. Maybe we're headed for Kofi vs. Fandango? As long as we're not in for Bo Dallas as IC Champion.
Nice brief segment between Henry and Sheamus. I think these two could do something special at Extreme Rules.
Swagger vs. Del Rio was pure magic. Wow. I wish it would have gotten more build since it was one of the top matches at Mania, but the match itself was great.
AWESOME Shield promo. I hope they do take out Undertaker. It's not like he's going to be on TV for a long time anyway in all likelihood.
And now it's time for our ridiculous comedy segment of the night.
At least that was fairly brief. Primo and Epico haven't won a match on a "main show" (Raw or Smackdown) in 8 months. Natalya, Primo, Epico, and even Rosa were fine, but you can only do so much in a match like this. Sheesh. Khali and Hornswoggle are on TV and Antonio Cesaro isn't. Not cool.
Not a bad main event to continue things. Orton vs. Show and Sheamus vs. Henry at Extreme Rules? It'd be fine by me.
More wrestling coming up, including podcasting at Blue Echo.
