We did not have too many complaints about this episode of SmackDown Live. But we did have some.

Nakamura has oodles of charisma, but where he falters is his knowledge of the English language and therefore, his delivery of promos in English. We made note of how he has not been booked right since his arrival on the main roster, taking forever to beat Dolph Ziggler and subsequently, taking most of the damage in his big tag match on SmackDown Live.
This week, he was booked to go over clean against Kevin Owens, appearing absolutely dominant indeed. He appeared like the main-event Superstar that he is, and if booked in the same manner, can truly be the next breakaway star for the company in the long run.
