A very eventful episode of SmackDown Live transpired, this week
#4 Best/worst: Feuding over the Top 10 List

Is the Top 10 List even remotely necessary?
The US Championship should be fought for pride and glory. It should not be centered around the Top 10 List. Somehow, we felt that it undermined the seriousness of the Orton-Roode feud. Orton vs. Roode had all the potential to be a show-stealer, on paper.

At the same time, we cannot deny that it is heartening that WWE is at least trying to include the Top 10 List in their storylines. It gives us hope to see that this wasn't just a poor attempt at 'power rankings'. There is some thought, some purpose to the list.
On this note, we conclude this week's edition of 'Best and Worst'. Thank you for your time and we'll see you again next week.
