So far I like the two episodes of Smackdown on Friday Nights. Unfortately UPN dropped the ball on the very first one by cutting it back to an hour. That charity show was awful. They could have just shown it complete after the charity show, but oh well. It was actually nice watching Smackdown without commercials on
www.wwe.comBatista is turning out to be a cool/funny champ. A feud with Eddie Guerrero will be interesting. I'd like to see them do something different here. Obviously Guerrero is outmatched in the muscle department so it would be nice to return him to "I lie I cheat I steal" and use the gimmick to frustrate Batista.
Undertaker and Randy Orton is becoming a lot more interesting. Rey Mysterio & Chris Benoit are on rolls. While Mysterio is not pulling out the wins he is impressing in his matches with Guerrero and Randy Orton and even got a win over JBL this week. Chris Benoit brings the US title some respectability. He is the first US champ in a while where I felt he deserves it. Benoit needs gold and the US title needs him.
MNM & LOD are bringing the tag team division back on Smackdown. Their feud is impressive and fun to watch. I'm surprised the new LOD has lasted this long as champs. I think MNM will get the titles back on the next PPV though.
