WWE: Twitter Reactions from this Week’s Smackdown Live: June 19, 2018
Jun 20, 2018 at 7:17 PM
Smackdown opened up this week with a promo segment from Carmella. This lady is currently on fire. She was ready to own the fans all by herself.
Now James Ellsworth has joined her to make up the lack of in-ring technics. This pair is likely to rule the show for the next several weeks. It might also allow Mella to have a stronghold to the title.
We can expect a new feud between Jeff Hardy and Shinsuke Nakamura on Smackdown. The backstage segments indicated that. There’s a great thing about Nakamura. His heel promo covered the shortcomings from MITB, just like that. Jeff is also able to come up with new things constantly.
SAnitY made their debut on the show for the first time. But they did not get much appreciation from the Smackdown crowd. The fans were still rooting for the Usos all the way, whereas, they were silent when SAnitY did show up for a beatdown. There’re doubts whether they can make an impression on the main roster.
Daniel Bryan’s elimination from the Gauntlet match was quite surprising. The creative team involved the Bludgeons in going against The Beard. It is likely that this might set up a fresh storyline between these two. Meanwhile, Big E moved into the main event scene, quietly.
Choosing Rusev as the new number one contender was a great idea. After years of wait, this man is finally getting his moments on Smackdown. We hope he lives up to his full potential during this upcoming WWE Championship feud. He is now up against the face that runs the place.
It was an overall average episode of Smackdown Live. Here are the Twitter reactions from the show,
“The ref counted too fast and it wasn’t in Japanese.” – Why Nakamura lost on Sunday ?
Renee: “What’s your thoughts on Jeff Hardy?”
“Who?”
“JEFF HARDY.”
“No need to yell.”
Nakamura is great ??? #SDLive

How crazy is it that Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, and now Eric Young are on #SDLive?
(and yes, we know that Xavier Woods was in there as well – mainly mentioning TNA Champions)
