WWE.com's 5-point preview thing:

1. Can the Shield be stopped?
2. Is a new Diva's champ on the horizon? (seriously, that's the #2 thing on their preview)
3. Ziggler/ADR/Swagger feud continues
4. What will Fandango do next
5. How bad is Cena's injury/is the Extreme Rules match still on/etc

Eh.

I've had a couple beers and I just want to make sure that a Ricardo, Coulter, Big E Langston match just occurred or am I seeing things? The most amazing thing is that I actually enjoyed that match.

I must be absolutely f*cked up right now. I'm seeing John Cena on the stage with children and he's saying that they're WWE Superstars. BTW, I'd bang Logan's mom.

I think Ryback's alter ego is Batman. Seriously, if he had a girlfriend named Rachel, picture him screaming her name after she broke up with him...

I see we're casually overlooking the fact Del Rio's character is built around his fear of heights. Why would he choose a ladder match!?!

Not being funny but Ricardo isn't such a bad wrestler for someone who doesn't wrestle for the WWE at ALL. Well put it this way, he's far better than Nig E lanston.

He's an actual wrestler, that's why. He's worked for a load of promotions and was hovering around in FCW before he became ADR's ring announcer.

Yea, read through my post properly.

Ricardo isn't such a bad wrestler for someone who doesn't wrestle for the WWE at ALL.

FCW is bulsh't because he was there for less than a year and that involves hardly anything but training. Before that he was wrestling for small promotions i know. And he also contributed to backyard wrestling.

It was just surprising how well he did when he hardly takes up a wrestling match. Kind of a waste if you ask me.

So next time you wanna bang your nuts on the table to contribute to this forum to try and prove me wrong with no questionairy answer, read through my post properly please, cheers.

The Ryback-Bryan match that airs on SmackDown tonight got rave reviews, apparently. People are calling it Ryback's best match in WWE by far. Might be worth checking out.

Bryan Ryback match was pretty good, better than the Orton-Rhodes match on Raw. Khali was in this backstage segment with Kaitlyn and Natalya, where he was giving Kaitlyn dating advice... I want Khali to have a talk show on the WWE Network like Leno or Letterman. He was able to speak English clearly enough you could understand what he was saying, but it didn't make any sense. It was incredible.

Has it? Last time I watched it revolved around a Sheamus-Del Rio feud and it was an absolute snoozefest. Sometimes I consider watching but now it just doesn't seem worth it since all of the SD talent is on Raw.

You guys are missing the best parts of Smackdown in a long time! Sheamus is rarely featured anymore and Shield is on every week with Dean Ambrose's epic promos.

I actually really like Sheamus and I think he's going to be a major part of the future of the company. Excluding the immediate world title win, I thought he was built up nicely, as well.

I just can't stand his mic work as a face. And by that, I'm not trying to imply that he's a god on the mic as a heel, but as a face it's just unbearable.

I finally watched the Ryback/Bryan match from last weeks Smackdown, and honestly found it to be really good. I think it's easily better than the Rhodes/Orton match from RAW, just because how both superstars had equally put fourth a lot of effort. Randy Orton seemed to just be following the motions during his match against Rhodes (I thought anyway). While this Smackdown match seemed to not only have both the competitors utilize each others strengths, but also had both try new things while they went at it.

That said, the match ended before it started to get truly interesting. I found this to be most disappointing, as it had the potential to be a truly 'great' match. I also couldn't help but notice the 'fake' crowd responses during the course of this bout (Obviously some of which were genuine). I just hope these two get a chance to face off once again, because I think they have the potential to get something truly spectacular out of one another.

*** Stars (Easily could have been better if it didn't end in the most basic way possible -- and also if it didn't finish just as it was getting truly interesting.)

Saying this is Ryback's 'best' match isn't really saying all that much, though. When you look back, how many 'serious' Singles matches has been part of? Most of his Singles matches comprise of his opponents jobbing to him. So this being his 'best' Singles match seems like a pretty empty thing to say considering his past efforts, thus far. I think it would be more relevant to say that Ryback finally had a really 'good' Singles match (IMO).
