5 things WWE got right on Smackdown Live this week

#3 Mustafa Ali Is The New Ultimate Underdog

This man plays his role perfectly.

The most unfortunate thing happened last week on Smackdown Live when Mustafa Ali was injured in his match with Randy Orton. It all occurred when Orton's patterned kicks mistakenly caught him in the eye, this was terrible news for Ali fans and wrestling fans in general, as we all wanted to see the highflyer inside the Elimination Chamber.

But some things are not meant to be, as Ali was pulled from the match by WWE due to this injury, and was replaced by veteran Kofi Kingston. While this may seem like a significant detour on Ali's push, it could be positive in some shape or form for him.

Ali is one of the best pure babyfaces on Smackdown Live right now, no wrestling fan out there can hate this man, as there is seriously no reason to. Ali is an excellent in-ring worker, exciting to watch and a man that bears his emotion to the world in promos at times. Ali is a babyface miracle at a time when WWE can't get fans to cheer anyone without someone being cynical, and that makes him a real star in the making.

Ali's promo on Smackdown Live this week showed fans his disappointment, but also his determination to get back in the ring and fight for the opportunities that have eluded him. WWE has something special here with Ali, and hopefully, they don't mess it up, cause so far they have done a splendid job.
