[quote][i]Originally posted by OORick[/i] [b]Tonight on SmackDown:[/b] SD's top matches at SummerSlam had an air of finality to them: AJ once and for all won his feud with Cena, Ambrose dispatched Ziggler cleanly and decisively, and Miz retained the IC Title without too much funny business.... all of which is well and good, but also is a bit suspicious, given that SD now has just 3 short weeks to get its ducks in a row for the SD-exclusive Backlash PPV.... That's a PPV name that used to be in place after WM, as the "clean up the mess and tie up loose ends" show before Extreme Rules was inserted as the "tie up loose ends with ALL STIPULATION MATCHES" show.... so one can wonder how "final" those SummerSlam matches actually were.... It'd be fairly easy for Ziggler to pull off a full heel turn and squeeze one more match out of that WWE Title feud.... likewise, if Cena really never gives up, he could press for a rematch, and we could all pretend like he wins the feud, 1 win to 2, when he finally does beat AJ, before moving on.... But just as easily, you could have Styles step up and be installed as the new #1 Contender to Ambrose's WWE Title, which is clearly the next step for AJ (all while Cena is scheduled to be MIA for a bit to shoot season 2 of his TV show).... it's just a question of now, or next month... A step down, it appears as though they will be prepping Bray Wyatt for his own return to main event heel status, by feasting on his own family: Wyatt turned his back on Erick Rowan last week, and could turn that into a full blown feud in short order.... and win it in just as short an order... it'd be a wise time to do the long rumored introduction of Sister Abigail, too, if that's ever gonna happen at all... Bray could have a very productive couple of weeks, and when Randall Orton returns after selling the beating he took from Lesnar, the two could be paired up for a long-form feud (remember the staredown from last week?)..... Nikki Bella's return probably means there's a new frontrunner for the eventual SD Women's Title that isn't Becky Lynch.... but it also means SD now has a nicely balanced 6 woman roster with two very over characters (one heel, one face), two talented-but-underappreciated performers (one heel, one face), and two up-and-comers (one heel, one face)... but who knows how long that will last once Eva Marie returns, and I can't really see her and Nikki co-existing on the same side... The Usos pulled a little dick move on American Alpha last night to steal the pinfall in a 12-man match, despite Alpha doing the heavy lifting... those two are obviously the two best and most over teams in the division, and if you put a new pair of tag belts out there, they're the two who should fight over them.... but will there be a heel turn, too? Miz awaits a new IC Challenger, and while I would personally give Kalisto a shot, WWE seems to think that Kalisto vs. Baron Corbin is A Thing (or, more specifically, WWE problematically seems to think Baron Corbin is A Thing, and other problems stem from that original source).... I don't know if a KFC commercial can count as a "spoiler" but if so, we might be in store for Miz vs. Ziggler, with Miz as the Family Guy Chicken and Ziggler as Colonel Sanders... it feels like we've seen Miz/Ziggler feud ad nauseum, but if they wear the costumes, I'd give them one more chance on PPV...... And of course, Shane McMahon will have to respond to what Brock Lesnar did, which I'm sure will include an update on Randy Orton's medical status, and something a little saltier with regards to the F-5 that Brock gave to Shane.... in sillier business, Shane and Daniel Bryan will probably continue toying with the One Man Brand, Heath Slater..... That is all. End communication.... [i]The flOOr is yours, OO Nation. Don't wait till after 10pm to post, either. Pre-show previewing and prognosticating is certainly welcome.
