Un-OOfficial Discussion Thread for: SmackDown (October 17, 2017)

What, no Jinder fans here? Alright, let's do this...

ETA: D-Bry in his hometown, wee! 6 Women Tag match for reasons (well, 5 women and some jobber named Borky or Bonky or somesuch ginger horseshit! Special announcement from Jinder! Re-match betwixt Mr. Zigglesworth vs. Bobby Roooooode! And now, Sami time! I'm helping!

ETA2: Would have been a lot cooler if Sami referenced management fucking Bryan over too and not letting him perform either and made it more of a tweener thing.

Unless, of course, Bry comes out of retirement to whip the dogshit outta Sami and Kev. Which he probably will next September when his contract's up.

You know, everyone says it's not supposed to make sense, like that's the whole point, dude. And I'm just saying, you know, that's like an excuse for lazy storytelling. Just don't sell me shite and tell me it's gold, all right? I might be stoned, but I'm not high. You know what I mean?

Gotdayum I love that girl but she can't wrassle fer shit. Not, like Eva bad, but still. Give her credit for her moxie and go-getter attitude, I guess. And, like, y'know, her nudes. That also helps.

And good Christ Charlotte needs to review her old man's tapes. She's doing Jarrett's silly ring walk taunt, not her dad's.

Who's that redhead? She seems decent. Might have a future if she keeps at it.

Pulp Fashion up next! wOOt!!!

ETA: Jesus, Breezango alone is going to get the Ascension over. And neither of those team even wrassle.

AGAYN, testicular cancer is A Thing WWE.

Please make this Snoop Dougie Doug commercial go the fuck away from my ears. Pls.

Pretty sure the ginger and the black girl are strictly enhancement material, but what the hell do I know? Irish and black folk are just too annoying and non-TV-worth to push, right Bukukky Beaver?

Why is this fashion silliness owning on all levels?

^He gets it.

Y'know whut, the cocktails have started to kick it so I'm gonna go ahead and say it. Jinder could be perfectly serviceable as Champ. He has in-ring ability on par with big guys like Autin, Rock, and HHH. Big brawl-y dudes that are good at what they do, but ain't ever gonna be mistaken for high flyers or mat technicians. But got, much like Reigns, Vince and Co. somewhere along the line decided the best way forward was facefucking their scripts down those guys throats like they needed to bowl with those kids/beginner bumper guards up so they could hope to get a strike every once in a while.

Also, and this is definitely a hill I'm willing to die on, but I think one of the greatest detriments to Dolph's success in WWE is his entrance music. It is literally the worst thing I've ever heard in my years of wrasslin' programming enjoyment. Like generic NuRock, NuMetal sub-sub-sub generic Staind circa '97 horrific. It's like my own personal brown note of entrance themes. As much as I like Dolph, I CANNOT stand hearing that shitty, "I'm here to show the world...!" whatever the fuck tattoo'd Tampa/Jacksonville thigh-tat bro-rock flaming garbage that is his theme...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Confirmed that nO One here generally complains at all about Jinder's workman type of wrestling. The big problems are (1) giving him the belt just to make money in India is a lousy reason and, (2) enough of the ethnic stereotype characterizations already. Except for a few low-IQ chuds and milkylickers in fandom practically no one wants to see any of that bullshit anymore. It's not just offensive and out of date, it's so horribly boring.

EDIT: Shinsuke heel-turn being teased perhaps? He didn't step in to help Orton just now plus he owes the big oaf a backstab for the RKO "outta nowhere" he ate a few weeks back. Be one hell of a fuck of a great stable of Owens, Zayn, and Nak to start running the place Horsemen/NWO-style.

Look, I know I'm fucking dumb, but Helluva should be pronounced "Hell of a". I blame Generico. Build. That. Wall!

Did...did Kevin just pronounce "aboot" as "about"?!?! Fuck you 'Murica, you ruin everything.

As a low-IQ chud milkylicker I kinda like the xenophobic racist ethnic stereotype trope. But only if it's done kinda right like when Rusev/Lana were praising the delicious Poutine a while ago.

Much like donuts, is there anything Kevin Owens can't do? Daniel Bryan On A Pole match!

Also, whoever does the push-up tops for the women remains the greatest unsung hero backstage at WWE.

Fun show to be at live. Seattle does well as �good crowds�, and kudos to WWE for continuing to let us have Daniel moments.

I didn�t stick around for 205, because fuck Enzo. Also the kiddo had homework. And also fuck Enzo.

So was the attendance as poor as some of the pics floating around the Internet the last month or two?

And -1 for Lesnar/Jinder officially becoming a thing, but +1 for AJ apparently reinserting himself into the WWE title picture. Though at this point, it wouldn't shock me to see the WWE put Jinder over both Lensar and AJ (and I'm sadly not really joking).

Word is that last bit where Owens & Zayn came back out to taunt Orton & Nak was because of a timing botch and the part with DB telling them Shane will be back next week was supposed to end the show. Apparently the match was supposed to go at least another minute longer. It's not a big deal though, other than to give Vince a reason to throw a tantrum over the fuck-up. The neat part is with Owens winging it without a script, especially that "my best friend!" stuff and the "hold me and never let me go" that he said to Zayn, showed that unrehearsed greatness can still occur when a smart enough talent is off the leash and improvises. There's a lesson in there somewhere, not that anyone in WWE Creative will bother to pay any attention to it though.

So Sami Zayn pinned Randy Orton last night, albeit thanks to a timely shot to the Universal Weak Point(tm). Noice.

They'll never forgive Bryan, will they? Repeatedly script people to rub it in his face that he can't wrestle while simultaneously making him out to be a pariah for wanting to leave the company. Be A Star, guys.

I don't think it's anything quite so sinister. They have heels mock Daniel Bryan's inability to wrestle because it draws heel heat. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than that.

Attendance was ok - it wasn't as bad as what I've seen on tv..but it definitely wasn't full. We were on the "on camera" side and the other side where the camera is facing us was sparsely populated but that seems to be the case at all televised events I go to.

I had no clue what was happening at the end. When Kevin and Sami came back out I thought we were off the air already.

I'm loving Sami Zayn, happy-go-lucky heel. I assumed they'd have to change his music or darken him up in some way, but I don't think so anymore. His 'being evil is great!' act works just fine and there's nothing wrong with a disingenuous, smiling face that cheapshots you the second you turn your back - well, as a wrestling heel, anyway.
