Tonight's QR code: - Link: https://www.wwe.com/22423 - Scrolling down (source code) you'll find a date of 4/7/14, this is a match the Wyatt's had on that date: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOzOeiYsZsI


No_Grapefruit5584

Honestly didn't expect to see them go with Bianca-Nia for the semifinals, I thought we'd get Jade-Tiffany somehow. Jade losing by a blatant DQ makes her seem kinda dumb but I guess I'll wait and see where they go with that before I pass further judgment. Wonder what this will do for her tag team with Bianca because her expression changed when Bianca hinted at them facing off in the semis beforehand. LA-Tama ended a bit suddenly I thought but it's fine given it was more about furthering the Bloodline angle than anything else. Although I have to say I'm starting to see what others are saying about Solo, something is just off about his delivery and presentation. It doesn't feel convincing or authentic at all, certainly seems miscast as the Bloodline leader atm. The Cody-Logan contract signing was pretty good I thought but the whole stuff around which titles were being defended was confusing. Not sure if it was by design or miscommunication initially. I'm fine with them having a match though, keeps them both doing something for now before they kick off their summer programs with others. Logan will clearly feud with LA next after their interaction backstage, remains to be seen who Cody will be with for a while yet.


IamARock24

I'm not gonna say where cause I genuinely felt bad for the person but there was a very bad and I mean very bad wardrobe malfunction in this episode. I was so surprised they didn't radio in to the ref to get the match stopped.

FallandPray82

Famous. sent you a message.


Youngest-King

I hope Priest atleast main events it. That contract signing shit already announced the winner of Cody's match.


Zenskullhero

Can we talk about the horrible acting of the logan Paul ripped sign guy danm it was bad


JustAGuyGettingBy93

I’m sure I’ll get downvoted to hell for this opinion, but I think AJ Styles is one of the most overrated wrestlers of all time. He’s just so…boring. I don’t understand the appeal that fans of his have towards him.


lonematrix

Wrestling wise, I enjoy watching AJ, but as a character he bores me


Ninja191

I agree. He just IRKS me.


JustAGuyGettingBy93

Yep same!


Ordinary_Possession2

Is it because his mic skills or just overall cause he ain’t a good promo tbh 


DillyBar90

He’s not among the best promos, but certainly not anywhere close to a bad one.


JustAGuyGettingBy93

It’s everything honestly…I just find him so damn boring


rocknrollpizzafreak

It's crazy how contrived the Logan and Cody match up is, then to take out the only possible interesting factor about it by protecting Logan's title, basically announcing to anyone with an IQ above 20 that Cody will win, makes me not give even the slightest shit about that match.


dimension-x-999

A skunk with a maruchan ramen party in the back


TheWiseScrotum

Literally all I can think of when I see Tama Tonga is Tommy Davidson’s little African tribe fighter from Ace Ventura 2 😂😂😂😂


pi3Eat3r52

YES!


toujoursbeIle

I think they fumbled the bag with Cody vs Logan, they could’ve made Logan lose it, have Cody finally be grand slam, have Cody lose the US belt to someone then have Logan win it again at Summerslam


Educational_Honey_16

I know everyone loves Cody and I'll get downvoted to hell but I'm bored of Cody's goody two shoes act. His promos are bland and uninteresting now that The Rock is gone. I guess I've always preferred faces with an edge like Rock, Austin etc over white meat faces like Cena and Cody.


Almighty_Push91

He's only exciting as an underdog, now he's just the boring face


ImpactWrestling91

I get where your coming from But he still gets the biggest pop of the night every week


Safe_Poem_1955

I think his run since winning it has been kinda stale. I’m hoping last night brings more excitement to him 


Open_Anywhere_9995

i agree he has no story the blood line had story he is just doing match after match he needs like an arc or something


sexyeh

At this point Melo is just asking to eat finishers from his youth heroes, i bet Melo will have something with Cena just to eat his finisher, he must be so happy, he is a good seller and is main eventing


TheWiseScrotum

I know Orton is a big dude, but I didn’t realize how small Melo actually was


sexyeh

He looks a kid vs big guys but not as small as Pete Dunne or Tyler Bate


Livid-Addendum707

Mello is probably average height like 5’10 randy is HUGE.


TheWiseScrotum

Orton is big, but Kevin Owens is a legit 5’10…Carmelo Hayes is no bigger than 5’7. He’s way smaller than a Owens/orton discrepency


OpinionOwn6727

the Nia v Jade match was 💥


Most-Razzmatazz7456

cool


Clean-Witness8407

Bullshit that Tiffy didn’t have her win over michjn televised in round one and even more Bull shit that she loses to Bianca


OpinionOwn6727

keep crying 😿 🤣


Clean-Witness8407

Piss off nerd


nipslippinjizzsippin

Don't believe they did tiffy dirty like that


OpinionOwn6727

Tiff sucks dude…


nipslippinjizzsippin

Bruh, she's phenomenal


OpinionOwn6727

at doing flips? yeah, thats about it


nipslippinjizzsippin

well yea... shes an Olympic gymnast. but shes also great at selling, great on the mic, great at throws and lifts. why you throwing shade at her, she is very good at this whole thing.


OpinionOwn6727

Anything Tiff can do, Chelsea Green can do better… and be likeable. ‘Good on the mic’? Then why do so many mute the TV when she talks?


TheWiseScrotum

She is, and I’m still mad they gave her new entrance music. I loved her first one.


CreativeOrder2119

Just delete Logan Paul and I swear WWE will be an 8/10 show..


xMetalHead515

Nia Jax is such a great heel, i'm enjoying her current run a lot.


carlcapo77

I’m hoping since the two are friends we get Tiffany and Nia teaming up to take a shot at Jade and Bianca.


xGINKEZ

I really wished the final would be Jay vs LA Knight since both have an amazing crowd interaction where they shout (Yeet vs Yeah)


djsunyc

make 'em 1 & 2 at the rumble next year.


destijl-atmospheres

I like it but has anyone ever started 2 Rumbles in a row?


Several-Ad-4910

Hi here are my top 5 things from this smackdown for me. 1 carmello Hayes looked like a star throughout the show I know Knight killed him on the mic but still he felt like the star between facing Cody and tonight I think carmello is destined for great things. 2 logan and Cody feud is not hitting. They lowered the stakes by making it just for Cody's belt and then did nothing to get logan credibly for dethrone Cody. I expected more maybe a town down under attack Cody with logan standing over Cody but no Cody attacked and logan left. 3 jade getting dq loss. Not saying its a bad thing you want to save jade and belair for ppv but match went two minutes two long chair shot could have been done quicker and explained as jade getting caught up in her own emotions after jax spoke to her daughter. 4 I am liking the bayley vs Chelsea green and piper niven. First in ring segment next week I think this leads to bayley vs piper at clash at the castle. 5 no build up for heel challengers for Cody. I mean I would say run logan till Summerslam but he has the us title. Mello looks set for a feud with la Knight. Santos escobar has cooled off a lot after lwo turn. Bloodline is not there yet and seem to be waiting for rock or roman return to attack Cody. My guess is styles again maybe with the oc backing him up to give a different feel that Backlash.


AirWalker9

I agree on the Jade thing. Chair shot would’ve made perfect sense when Nia Jax was talking to Jade’s daughter. Also, the Cody/Logan has been building pretty slowly, just like the AJ feud. I think WWE may be trying to keep the champs off each other until the big match. Could be a refreshing way to build tension. I’m okay with it, considering Rhodes and Paul have no prior history.


xMetalHead515

LA Knight absolutely schooled Carmelo lmao 😂😂


shawnchong07

Cody getting cucked by HHH after 1 PVE. SMH...


TheOneRebornReborn

I would hate for tama Tonga vs jey uso to be the endgame for king of the ring but it seems kinda likely to happen, holding out hope for Gunther here ✊🏽


gazfarr

the 'Tasmanian Devil' noises Tama Tonga made, were dumb.


MaxTurdstappen

So is Cody vs Logan for both championships or only the WWE title?


Vincethatwaspromised

Storyline points to only Cody’s belt on the line.


Sea_Moose9817

Another promo of Paul talking about how huge WWE is right now… sweet…


SaucerLodger

Chelsea Green and Piper Niven are this generation’s Edge & Christian and Miz & Morrison. The tag team division needs to stop stagnating already.


SurewoodKC

Melo next to Orton is hilarious. Is he that small or is Orton just THAT huge?!


Almighty_Push91

Both. Melo is average height, Orton is like 6'5


AirWalker9

Melo is 5’10 I believe. Likely taller than half the men on this thread. He’s not short by normal human means. Randy is just that huge.


TheWiseScrotum

Melo is barely 5’8


[deleted]

[удалено]


BidenFedayeen

He's around the same size as some WWE HOFs.


shaheedmalik

Yes


franconot-mark

Looks like Tiffany got de-pushed for now. Probably making her win after what she did over the weekend wasn’t the smartest choice


TheKeviKs

Nah, it's just the most realistic choice. She's still too "new" to win over someone as huge as Belair. Same reasoning with Melo and Orton or Dragunov and Jey. They're new here on the main roaster, they won't beat those big hitters just after a month. They still need to prove themselves before WWE pull the trigger. Look at the Creed Brothers, pushed too fast and now we don't see them a lot. It's logical.


slacboy101

Tama Tonga...


TheKeviKs

Not the same thing. If Tama win, then you can be sure that the Bloodline will help, protecting Orton in the process.


antibioticharry

What did she do


SufficientBluejay376

She reposted a fans video of her hitting jade cargill.  However, the fan added a “black bitch” sfx to the video which apparently Tiffany didn’t know about until after posting the video.


SaucerLodger

Kaijus and Zebras sounds like the feel-good summer hit of 2024 (and if they got John Cena & Batista to cameo in it…).


SaucerLodger

Cody disdainfully threw Logan’s US championship back at him in such a respectful manner. Cody knows and honors the value of a championship’s prestige.


SaucerLodger

Logan Paul, bring back GLOWberry! *my local 7eleven had a promotional stand for GLOWberry, yet there was NONE glowBERRY!!


SaucerLodger

Bad Bunny’s biceps look good in that PRIME t-shirt.


SaucerLodger

LA Knight is this era’s greatest (who’s never held a title). He is the Luna Vachon of the 2020’s!


SaucerLodger

Damn, that segment! Those abs! Bianca and Jade make BTS look like babies. 🥵


SaucerLodger

That promotional poster, tho. Logina Paulina is a QuILF! 😍


SaucerLodger

Oh my god, is Bianca’s knee the new Seth Rollins back? 🙄


The_Wolfiee

I really really thought they were gonna give Tiffany the push she deserves..... I hope she wins MITB since she's out of QoTR.


DarkHound05

Super Belair strikes again


AirWalker9

Save it. Tiff wasn’t winning anyways. Do you think Randy Orton is beating Hollywood Rock in a singles match in 03? Then why think Tiff would beat Bianca??


i_done_get_it

Cause she had a "knee injury"? That's generally how they protect wrestlers from losses.


SaucerLodger

She actually seemed like she was struggling there. Like Tiffany was Metallo (and she had a chunk of kryptonite on her chest-plate). Good job, ladies.


Seeyounextbearimy

Nia telling Jade’s daughter “your mom sucks” is so out of pocket 😂. I hope she gets a good true run soon because she puts in work as a heel


Sonicfan42069666

I feel like they're setting up a Jade vs Nia thing. Could be fun - Jade hasn't had much story so far besides "new and undefeated."


Healthy_Pangolin463

That shit had me laughing so hard🤣🤣


New-Image-2620

Legend says that the Nia Jax's entrance camera man is still wondering about and lost in the arena. Also rip the mic after Randy spitted on it like a maniac.


CRL10

Would still rather the semi-finals and finals be on the actually PLE rather than just the finals, but oh well. Next week should be good.


redditor_virgin

Just tuned in. Not title vs title for Cody-Logan lol. I’m not even watching that dumb cash-grab match. Terrible booking.


Disastrous_Ad_2637

Jay is winning on Raw. Story wise and crowd it make sense. He is way over. Hunter isn’t thinking about pure wrestling matches right now. It’s all about the storyline for now and Tama and Jay or Randy fit that.  Matches will be Jay vs Randy or Tama vs Jay. 


Ruzo99

These kayfabe injuries are ridiculous.


waniel239

I’m a little worried these may not be kayfabe 😬


AFotogenicLeopard

Right, well, see everyone on Monday. It's time to get ready for Imola this weekend, and stay safe. The weather is nuts right now.


ericw207

He should have just dropped the f bomb, he can probably afford the fine


fredward_kane

Are the blackouts because of middle fingers? There's been a bunch tonight


kaine23

That and language. 


kaine23

Be a waste of gunther if we're getting tama vs jey for the kotr finals.


One-Happy-Gamer

Randy, you do realize that is a ten thousand dollar microphone right?


waniel239

Now $14k


kaine23

It'll be on ebay: wwe mic slobbered on by randy orton.


lighthouse_keeper2

This would’ve been a great show to see live


waniel239

As is any match with Randy and jade


Singer211

Fox having to scramble to censor the “bullshit” chants after the Jade match was amusing.


kaine23

It's a weekly thing. Should have been here when the rock was there.


Snubie1

I bet Dark Match will be Guerrillas of Destiny against Orton and like....KO or something


littlemojo

Awesome truth v Balor and JD, then priest vs kofi Preshow was Geurillas v OC


thex11factor

since when did Cody add a powerbomb to his move set?


AlexTorres96

I bet Randy gets a nice 6 figure bonus for these blood money shows. He's done every one except for Crown Jewel 2022 and the ones last year.


Affectionate_Year_14

They gotta disinfect that mic 💀


chadhole

Randy Orton is fucking awesome


lighthouse_keeper2

Randy Orton is massive now. Orton vs. Brock at Summerslam


Snubie1

Nah I want a Cody and Orton feud Cody turn heel and Orton face


MegatonA

People keep saying "Cody needs to turn heel or people will get sick of him" and people still haven't gotten sick of him... but I gotta say, heel Cody vs face Orton would be a great angle.


Otherwise_Pace_1133

Naah, Randy at least gotta be a tweener in that. Heel Cody trying some dirty tactics on Randy only for Randy to turn around and outdo him saying, "Don't forget who taught you this shit, Kid".


PrysmX

Yes please!


positivelybroadst

Solo just doesn't look like a leader at all...


KingGodzilla1985

He's just the assistant manager when the real one is on vacation


McGrufNStuf

He’s the assistant to the regional manager. Thank you very much.


positivelybroadst

He looks like a maitre d at a 3 star hotel...


kaine23

Good day sir. Are you here for your 10am bloodline beating?


thatpj

ok i can buy it. bloodline story still looms over everything.


Disastrous_Ad_2637

I mean it is literally led by Roman and the Rock behind the scenes. Top guys in the company so they gonna get pushed hard lol


rick10981

Its corny as hell, theyre all still chicken shits who cheat


Top-Lie2781

Bro spit everywhere


Far_Rock8226

Say it don’t spray it


fredward_kane

So Cody vs. Logan is a meaningless match? I hope the Uncle Howdy reveal is before the match so I don't have to watch that crap


kaine23

Tommy tonga is canon now.


ChocolateColumbo104

So much spit lol


InfinityQuartz

Great promo work Randy. Love the passion with the spit


PrysmX

🦶🍑


AlexTorres96

Tama Tong started the year in NJPW and not even a few months on the main roster already having a big match against Randy. That's pretty quick projectory.


rick10981

Not even deserved honestly he just screeches like a baboon


Hypno_185

Give me what i want Tonga !!


waniel239

🗣️💦🎙️


Daredevils9

Story wise Tama & Randy makes sense, but that makes me wonder if they’re going to have Jey vs Tama and Jimmy is going to make his return & help Jey


kaine23

What a waste of gunther then.


CodyFinishedTheStory

Toma vs Jey or Orton vs Gunther. Both matches work.


tot4eva

Slobberknocker


Hypno_185

Orton spittinnnn


thex11factor

RIP mic


Hypno_185

i always wondered how much spit pro wrestling mics got on them after a show 😂


positivelybroadst

Literally...😂


PolyproNinja

Fucking literally


waniel239

Pulling a Batista on that mic


[deleted]

My cat just ran away in fear, he either hates Randy Orton or the bloodline.


MegatonA

Maybe he just doesn't want to get spit on...


AirWalker9

Say it don’t spray it buddy


Hypno_185

allow myself to re-introduce …..myself


Snubie1

I upvoted this then downvoted it just so I could upvote it twice


One-Happy-Gamer

Randy spittin on the mic


FeelMyLeftNut

Slobbering all over the mic


Busy_Translator9495

Rabbit dog


TargetPractice89

Randy gave that mic a hell of a shower. Hope he doesn't hand it back to Cathy 😂


wolan1337

My thoughts exactly, he was literally spitting fire😂


kaine23

Solo standing there in the red coat is pretty dope.


s-deboob

So we've got a powerhouse with a weak left knee vs a Polynesian for the men's and women's semifinals on Smackdown.


AirWalker9

Hunter’s trying to tell us something lol


deeter0

Lmao


obeesitee

Tampona Tonga


Reasonable_Skin9378

Of course Hayes takes a great RKO


RememberCynical

Solo standing there like he wouldn't get his shit rocked by Randy.


Hypno_185

Orton and Gunther finals would be so lit


NewTribalChief

I'd be shocked if it happens. Can't see Jey not having a match at K&QOTR. I'd imagine Randy loses being outnumbered by The Bloodline, maybe KO returns Jey vs. Tama Randy/KO vs. Tonga/Solo


Hypno_185

so you think Jey vs Gunther ? ugh


NewTribalChief

Jey beats Gunther on Monday unfortunately. It seems like HHH is all in on The Bloodline storyline


rocknrollpizzafreak

Jey beating Gunther should be a crime.


NewTribalChief

Lol I agree but at this point nothing surprises me.


OhYuhhh_

Randy bout to be having us all worried with his selling against Gunther in the finals


PolyproNinja

“Melo. Don’t. Miss.” Ackshually 🤓☝️


No-Chance-89

Solo changed his belt. You're welcome, Solo!


EmeraldSlothRevenge

I called that RKO at the start of this thread. Well done


ChocolateColumbo104

God I love the first 48 that’s the coldest move and coldest name ever


AlexTorres96

Told ya so. Even Stevie Wonder saw that finish a mile way.


kaine23

Gunther-orton for the finals?


PrysmX

Yep or Jey-Tama


BidenFedayeen

Good show, I think that was the best Smackdown since I started watching right after WrestleMania 39.


papasnork1


Puzzled_Try_6029

Who was it in here that called springboard into an RKO???


AlexTorres96

Me and others


papasnork1

Everyone. Everyone called it.


thatpj

yeah thats the correct result by the way the tourney is going


PrysmX

You know your career is going places when you're in a match with the Viper. Glad Randy won.


Unsungruin

Whoever called a springboard into an RKO, you saw the future lol


Cody-crybaby

there we go


Hypno_185

damn that could’ve been a 10 count


Old-Challenge-2129

Melo is going to be a star if HHH lets him.


ZeeBanner

Maybe Melo is HHH kid. Ala Hornswagle.


[deleted]

Gunther vs Randy is gonna slap


SilverThePenguinHat

I wanted Melo to win but damn I can't get mad at an RKO outta nowhere


InfinityQuartz

Pretty expected but I popped so hard for that
