I would be lying to you if I said that I wasn't entertained by the whole Braun Strowman vs. Miz and Morrison build on SmackDown but I have to say that it's very childish, in a lot of ways. I mean everyone in the world could predict that Braun Strowman would overturn the van on SmackDown except for Miz and Morrison who have never seen footage of the man before, from what it seems.
And while I do realize that the SmackDown audience these days consists of families and not necessarily the same folks who were around back in the Attitude Era, I do believe that showing green slime falling on Kayla Braxton may be a little too silly even for these current standards. In any case, the window smashing angle with Miz and Morrison was good, I guess.
I do wish that SmackDown would be a little edgier because unless you're a hardcore fan, such angles may just drive older viewers away. If it wasn't my job, I would have switched the channel.
