Title This: WWE Smackdown Reaction “Champions Look Strong, Time For a Change”

Bo Dallas defeates Jack Swagger

smackdown reactionBo Dallas is on the defensive the entire match. Jack Swagger hits a few suplexes and then hits him with a Swagger Bomb.

Dallas fights back at the end and picks up a cheap victory. Dallas talks about how Swagger is a slow learner and needs to “Bolieve.”

Again, this feud makes no sense to me. I sound like I am repeating myself. Why is WWE putting these two guys together and why is the feud still going on? What is the end game here? So many questions and not many answers.

Rusev defeated Roman Reigns via Disqualification

Roman Reigns and Rusev start off hot. They exchange big blows and spill to the outside. Rusev gets in the ring and hits a kick to his stomach. Rusev continues the assault with a combination of kicks and punches into the corner. We get back from a break with Reigns hitting Rusev with a big boot. He tries for a Superman Punch and Reigns ends up hitting a clothesline. 

Reigns gets going with a clothesline and a Samoan Drop for a two count. Reigns hits his patented kick on the outside and out comes Seth Rollins. Rusev gets a super kick to his face and tries to lock in The Accolade. Reigns hits a side suplex and counters the attempted submission hold. Rollins heads to the top and hits Rusev with the briefcase. Roman Reigns hits a Superman Punch and then heads to fight Rollins. Both men get tossed across the announce table. Both men head to the crowd and fight. Rusev picks up the win and Mark Henry comes down. The American Flag is dropped and Rusev beats the hell out of Henry. Mark Henry gets up and get hyped. Henry hits a World’s Strongest Slam and cheers to the crowd.

Great ending to Smackdown. Two matches that I am on the fence about are spotlighted and have more of a level of importance after tonight. Rollins and Reigns was given to us for free Monday night. That was a mistake, but I still look forward to what they can do on Sunday. Mark Henry and Rusev did more tonight to intrigue me than what happened on Raw. Keep it simple and logical. Do not try to soil on your storyline by making it too long of a segment.
