At least Smackdown does not have Cena in it. And I believe it would still be watchable.

Daniel Bryan and Khali to Smackdown
Swagger to Raw

They do this all the time. Someone gets over big on SmackDown, goes to raw, and gets lost in the shuffle. See: MVP.

yeah dont forget shaemus got the biggest push ever to the title and now is a midcarder with the seldom defended US belt whose match gets bumped from wrestlemania

yeah i cant believe i actually thought cena was going lol
shame on me for thinking super cena would ever leave. it was a pretty big surprise though (given the rumors)
during the match i was thinking miz would beat cena on a hot tag and then miz would get drafted to SD and ADR would still win the belt effectively swapping the titles between the shows

i am a bit surprised sin cara moved so quickly. i guess they're trying to replace rey with a new mexican masked babyface, but he wouldve gotten a bigger push/more exposure on raw

JaoSming wrote:Daniel Bryan and Khali to Smackdown

looks like the whole damn mid-card/lower card got swapped
zack ryder said "hopefully i get drafted from superstars to raw or smackdown" lol

Best moments on raw: R Truth heel speech. "you guys are pissing me off" lol. his new theme song didnt go over so i guess they're trying Shut Up instead of What's up now :lol: he's not a bad heel at all, he's still very entertaining.
Punk kissing ADR on the cheek after winning the match.
TWO backstage interviews they definitely need more of those.
cole getting his tooth/lip busted and bloodied. i bet there was some real animosity between JR, King & Cole so i bet they really enjoyed it when they were whipping each other.


and tough enough is really gorwing on me, but its not as good as the 1st 2 seasons because theres less focus on the wrestling (they even edited "wrestling" out of bret hart's speech this week). the biggest thing in the 1st 2 i liked was watching them learn how to take bumps and learn how to do the moves but the wwe probably frowns on that as it is a bit of like a magician showing people how to do the tricks or at the least bit, them admitting that wrestling is scripted & the outcomes are predetermined

Sheamus to Smackdown.wtf? 2 midcard titles on smackdown?

Re: Professional Wrestling (WWE, TNA, ROH, etc)

So I guess they once again spoiled the outcome of a world title match by moving Del Rio to RAW?

i'm a fan of del rio as he is, but his announcer multiplies ADR's awesomeness by 100

also, is it bad that i only watch tna & SD if i read that someone gets a legitimate injury? i mean, i'm not happy when they get hurt, but im very intrigued because it doesn't happen too often

Michelle McCool Finishing Up With WWE; Spoiler Regarding Her Exit From The Company

The word going into the weekend is that Michelle McCool is finishing up with WWE at Extreme Rules on Sunday.

She will work a match at Extreme Rules against Layla in a bout that carries the stipulation "loser leaves WWE." The original stipulation to the match was "loser leaves Smackdown" but that has been changed.

McCool is married to The Undertaker.


Didn't see that one coming.

could be a signal that taker is done as well.

A post today on PWInsider.com revealed that Michelle McCool is reportedly finishing up with WWE, as she will participate in a Loser Leaves Smackdown Match against former Lay-Cool partner Layla El.

We can confirm, based on conversations with several wrestlers and a key WWE insider, this move has a lot to do with the fact The Undertaker is not scheduled for TV anytime soon, and simply wants his wife at home.

McCool's tenure on Smackdown has been somewhat controversial, as she has not appeared on house shows, and only works TV tapings and pay per views. This preferential treatment rubbed a lot of the full time wrestlers the wrong way, especially since so many "part-timers" were in featured roles for WrestleMania (Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler, Trish Stratus, Vickie Guerrero, Snooki). To make matters worse, the Cole vs Lawler match went very long at WrestleMania, taking up valuable time that others could have used to put more of a spotlight on their own match. Agent - Producer Dean Malenko was the one who laid out the Lawler vs Cole match, and that touched off a whole locker room discussion about the part timers who get so much air time, when the house shows are hurting and pay checks are down because of it.

McCool is said to leave in WWE Chairman Vince McMahon's good graces, and is expected to return to television about the same time Undertaker appears again.

How nice. Undertaker wants the wife at home so they can make mini Undertakers.

It's funny because you could here the post production editing in that segement on Smackdown, when McCool said "Loser leaves ..."


I really liked the lighting they used in the Sin Cara/Swagger match, they should've kept it through the show

New Smackdown intro looks good too ("looks", I mean disregard the song)

Supposedly he wants to work at least one more Wrestlemania, which presumably will allow him to retire at 20-0.

yeah it was pretty bad editing done by wwe, but there's not much else they couldve done.

yeah i figured as much, but i think he'll be off tv until after the rumble where they will bring him back for a wrestlemania storyline like they did this year
