This was a mostly fine episode with a great main event, but I'm not as ecstatic about the result. Ambrose and Ziggler swapping places on the card doesn't solve SmackDown's lack of top-tier faces. Let's face it, AJ gets zero heel heat, so putting him up against Miz or the Wyatts would have been a great way to kick off…

The Orton-Wyatt mash-up is great what are you talking about

If you can't appreciate Jack Gallagher, I'm truly sorry for the joyless life you must lead.

Unless they do it on NXT TV like they did with Alpha's rematch.

Remember how Raw started setting up a Bayley/Charlotte title feud at Survivor Series? Me neither.

Fortunately for me!!! So pumped to see NXT down here, never thought it'd happen.

You know who else just had a "final battle"? The Miz and Dolph Ziggler. You know who on Raw already has some beef with Miz? Sami Zayn.

That's exactly what they've done with Orton and Wyatt though. They weren't brute forced at all.

I really enjoyed this SmackDown. Obviously Harper losing to Kane isn't ideal, but at least it adds something to the tensions in the Wyatt Family. Some great promo work from the women though: Alexa's "potato farm" comment, Carmella's message to Cena and Becky dropping that B-word like it was nothing. I'm genuinely…

It was a botch when she did it in Scotland, but it got such a strong reaction I think they did it on purpose in Toronto.

I just about peed my pants laughing when I read that Sasha beat Charlotte for the title on Raw AGAIN. Raw booking is trash.

I figure Natty runs in at TLC, Carmella wins and moves on to a feud with Becky, and we get Nikki vs. Natty as the secondary women's storyline.

Rikishi told me why they added Tom Phillips on the set of his new movie. He said

Carmella didn't get eliminated in an eyeblink. She DID get eliminated by Alicia Fox which…yeah.

I love the Corbin/Kalisto feud, man. It's making me care about them in the same way the Nikki/Carmella feud made me care about them.

I think the Wyatts jumping the queue is justified. They won the match at Survivor Series, it's easy to see this as a reward from Shane. Plus come on, it was a pretty great moment.

*YOUR elitist entitlement

Not really, she basically went for Bayley's title as soon as she could (without stepping on her buddy Eva's toes), and then once the title changed hands she challenged Asuka before Bayley even got her rematch.

I mean, no Roman or heel Roman, but I'm trying to be realistic.

I stopped watching Raw sometime during the build to Clash Of Champions, and this is the first review I've read since then that has actually made me regret not watching that week's episode. Logical storyline progression, two title matches, barely any Roman, what more could you ask for?
