Raw wins…
There is no defending SmackDown Live this week.
I don’t care if you’re a staunch believer of the blue brand, you can’t say it was a better show than Raw. Tag team turmoil was tedious, Kane faced Baron Corbin and left him in a pile, which has to be a joke, and James Ellsworth now has a hat-trick of victories over the WWE World Champion, despite the fact he should be nowhere near the main event.
Raw had some more great bits that weren’t mentioned in this article, such as Enzo’s naked escapade, a Cruiserweight triple threat match and Sami Zayn getting destroyed by the brute that is, Braun Strowman.
It was better for entertainment, matches and overall value. It was one of those episodes I would actually watch again on the WWE Network, and it’s not often you can say that about the weekly broadcasts nowadays.
Nevertheless, this makes it 9-9, so it’s neck and neck once again. SmackDown needs to do something drastic next week to make up for the tosh that they showed this week. Ellsworth now has a SmackDown contract, which doesn’t bode well at all really. Raw is cooking on gas, and I predict they’ll keep going next week.
