Smackdown

It was a feel-good moment for the Smackdown authorities while kicking things off on this week’s show. It was almost certain we would witness these two on the same page after the tag team match has been made official at Wrestlemania 34.

But, then again, we just can’t trust such a warm relationship in the WWE programming. We would not be surprised if a backstabbing is reserved on this Sunday.

The match between Charlotte and Natalya picked up at the finishing segments.

Once the contest reached the height, Carmella was introduced to the mix that continuously keeps us reminding that this lady still possesses the Money in the Bank briefcase.

Hence, she might try to cash it in when Asuka and Charlotte will have the fight of their lifetime on the biggest stage of them all. The staredown between these two was intense, too.

It’s hard to believe the amount of support that Rusev is getting on Smackdown on a weekly basis.

Last night, too, there was no exception as the crowd broke out into ‘Rusev Day’ chants from the get-go.

The match between him and Jinder Mahal turned out to be a good one and so did the intense altercation between Roode and Orton aftermath. The US title fatal-4-way match should be a very good one at ‘Mania.

We never expected this episode of Smackdown Live without Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.

So, an appearance was the must for them and they did deliver with a fired-up promo which was the best of the night. These two heels have taken their heel antics to a whole new level that’s hard to match up.

There was an intruder taking over kind of feeling in this segment which felt so good.

In the main event of Smackdown, the tag team match was kept short in order to focus on Styles vs. Nakamura rivalry.

After weeks of staying in the back against Nakamura, the WWE Champion came back at the right time just prior to the Wrestlemania 34 event to deliver some of his own statements.

This made a solid build up for the dream bout between these two on this Sunday night.
