3 Biggest things WWE made clear on SmackDown Live this week (13 August 2019)

#1 Buddy Murphy has a bright future ahead

There is no doubt that Buddy Murphy's debut was one of the best moments of SmackDown Live this week. Roman Reigns, who is a top guy of the company, was the first opponent for Murphy on the blue brand. It is still ambiguous who the unknown attacker of Reigns is, but Murphy has become part of this storyline.

Since Reigns was the first opponent for Murphy, many people anticipated that the latter would get buried by the Big Dog, but it didn't happen. Though Murphy lost the bout, he made a notable first impression. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was the best match of the night and Murphy showed his proficiency in the squared circle.

There is little doubt over the dexterity of Buddy Murphy. During his tenure on 205 Live, the former Cruiserweight Champion had a memorable run as he produced extraordinary matches regularly.

After getting drafted to SmackDown Live during the Superstar Shake-up, he was away from the ring for a long time. The company is certainly aware of Murphy's immense talent and he was probably held back for the right moment. Considering the impressive debut of Murphy, he is likely to shine on the blue brand.
