Twitter Reactions & Review Of This Week’s Smackdown Live - October 23, 2018 1

Smackdown has quite an odd start with The New Day calling out the Big Show. It was evident to happen considering how Big Show betrayed them last week. We expected to see a decent contest between Kofi Kingston and Big Show in the opening segment. Rather, we witnessed an utter chaos inside the ring between New Day and The Bar members. It came to a random end with Big Show hitting a KO punch to Woods.

AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan dream tag team failed to bring a major impact on Smackdown. The ending of the match was predictable as they continue to build on rifts against each other. But until and unless one of them turns on each other, the feud will not be heating up. Hopefully, that happens on next week’s Smackdown which will be the go-home show for Crown Jewel.

The feud between Rusev and Aiden English had a lot of potential on Smackdown Live. These two could build quite a bad blood with each other after that Milwaukee incident. However, lack of planning ruined all of that as last night’s match remained a short affair. Rusev squashed Aiden, predictably to end the feud, perhaps. He should now move on to the United States title picture.

It’s always great to see Rey Mysterio back on Smackdown Live. He was the only savior of the show after last night’s random booking from the WWE. When nothing seems right, the quick-fire actions from WWE’s biggest little man seems soothing to the eyes. It was even a more pleasant news for the fans as they expected to see him in action, the least. Well, he was able to shut The Miz up for good.

The main event of Smackdown was the biggest example of random booking. Surely, Randy Orton and Jeff Hardy are the two veteran names. But they failed to give a solid match to close the show in a big way. Besides they did not have any purpose to fight on the show as the heated feud was already over. So there was nothing really special about Orton’s win.

Overall, this week’s Smackdown fell flat to a big extent as there were so such storyline extensions. It was also unanswerable why Becky and Charlotte were not on the show on go-home edition of Evolution. Here’s how Twiterrati reacted on this edition,
