5 things we wanted from WWE this week and what they delivered: 9th May 2017

Shinsuke Nakamura and Dolph Ziggler’s feud is heating up before their match at Backlash

#1 What we wanted: Building up Smackdown's major feuds; What we got: Building up the feuds in an inefficient way

Jinder Mahal and Randy Orton faced off in a six-man tag team match

The major feuds on Smackdown now are Randy Orton vs Jinder Mahal, AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens, and Sami Zayn vs Baron Corbin. All three feuds were built upon extremely well in the opening segment of the show.

The problem arose with the main event, however. A Six Man Tag Team match between the faces and the heels – meant to get all three feuds off the ground – fell flat. No one got enough screen time and the ending was extremely predictable.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

I guess this can be considered a job half done with the rest to be completed in the final build up to Backlash.
