This week of SmackDown Live was anything but glorious, truthfully
#2 Worst: Four matches over two hours
Ad
The matches weren't very exciting either
We wonder if WWE went into panic mode when they found out that their key superstars would not be showing up this week. This seemed like a rather hastily booked show overall. You had the two semifinal matches, the finals and a 6-woman tag team match, over two hours. The show wasn't exciting.
There was very little storytelling in the non-match segments. Sure, some of the superstars spoke about the Royal Rumble but that was pretty much all there was, really. Except for the finals, the entire show was skippable.
We say WWE panicked because the finals were moved up to this week from next week. Let's hope WWE pulls out all the stops for next week, heading into the Royal Rumble.
