Title This: WWE Smackdown Reaction 5-25

Big ShowIn Ring Segment:

What I Liked:

The Big Show says the same thing again from Raw. I thought it was a smart booking decision, especially if they want to keep Show at the top. He is a Smackdown guy, and this show did not have Cena or Laurinaitis. I would prefer this over a video package just recapping. This gets the crowds more invested and give them more of a chance.

What I Disliked:

Why didn't he say something different? It basically was all the same. He is a good actor, but needs to stay in his comfort zone when talking.

Grade: B

Alberto Del Rio def. Kane and Randy Orton

What I Liked:

I loved what Daniel Bryan did before the match, attacking Kane. You get to see him, get to see something more with Bryan than the usual cowardly acts. This felt and looked really good. This is also a way for Kane to lose and not look really weak. Del Rio works at a great pace and can fight with anyone. Him and Orton did a great job with many move reversals, as well as Del Rio being able to carry the offensive attacks. He does a great job focusing his kicking on weakened body parts. He has excellent intelligence in the ring, and makes it more realistic. Orton was able to hit his offense on Del Rio and Kane, and really grabbed the crowd's attention. Del Rio pulled a classic heel move by stealing the pin from Orton. Great stuff from all guys here, even Kane who was already handicapped.

What I Disliked:

Sheamus did not need to attack Del Rio. Does he always need to stand tall at the end of Smackdown's.
