SmackDown 15.12.2023

Finally, the Radiant Team is come back in Green Bay, WI! Atleast SMackDown is coming and I can't wait to see my Trible Chief Roman Reigns today live in Green Bay. ALso we should see Randy Orton, Bloodline and maybe LA Knight. I heard Kevin Owens shouldb e here also so let get it!


Roman Reigns and Randy Orton: old wounds are opened

Ofcouse who else can open SmackDown but main champion - Roman Reigns. Atlast he come back to handle with new problems in Randy and LA faces. Bloodline members were not sucessful last week so Trible Chief himslef must handle with this. As usual crowd become mad. You love or hate champion but you must aknolage him and his acomplshments. Whole building was on thier feet rising finger to the sky. Roman started his speech in a classic way and asked to cheer future Trible chief - Solo Sikoa. Painful strick to Jimmy's pride but be honest he fall down pretty hard compare to his brother Jey.

Roman's speech was intereapted by musical theam of Legend killer Randy Orton who came to the ring and remined that Reigns and his Bloodline took 18 month from him and now he is coming for the one signifacnt thing in Roman's life - his title. Trible Chief gave Randy advice to leave, fall back in line and never come back, but Orton from his side admited that Roman is a living legend and Randy is known as Legend Killer. Attemping delivere RKO was unsuccsful but still makeTrible Chief a bit scary. "You know, Voices in my head are speaking and you know what did they say? i will leave you with that - Daddy is back".

Carmelo Hayes vs Grayson Waller 

This week rhymors are talking about mysterious NXT wrestler nad finally we know who his is. Carmelo Hayes baby! You asking who is he? I could say that he is one of the strongest performers in NXT. Several timis champion of North Amrica and NXT champion. His matches are mememrable and full of technich and work of art. Backstage and on microphone he is also cool and bold speacher. So tonight he will face another NXT ex-wrrestler Grayson. they alrady meet several times and Hayes was stronger. I wasn't sure that today someting changed. Match was dynamic, full of high ristk and simply beatiful moves. Carmelo is fan of rope jumping and combined ropes with his attacking moves. I really like this match nad Waller showed us  some grat moves of his own. But as Hayes told himslef - when he shots he don't miss. This time he diidn't miss either. Great debute on SmackDown and first victory. Good luck Carmelo.

Randy Orton and LA Knight "Everything cool between us, right?"

In a brief backstage episode, LA Knight and Randy Orton exchanged some words. Randy stated that he has no issues with LA Knight. Knight, on his part, brought up the Bloodline's numbers game and asserted that he would be the first to take everything from Roman Reigns. It seems we may witness a conflict between these two superstars in the future.

Kevin Owens vs Austin Theory

Tonight's SmackDown treated us to not one, but two perfect matches. Kevin and Austin clashed several times, with Owens proving to be the stronger competitor each time. However, tonight, Theory may have a slight advantage as Kevin's hand is injured, and the young wrestler will likely focus on exploiting that weakness. Both performers showcased a thrilling collision of styles, introducing new moves such as Theory's Spanish Fly and Kevin's devastating KO Punch, which ultimately secured his victory.

I highly recommend this match as it's a symphony of skill, keeping viewers guessing about the eventual winner. Both wrestlers delivered outstanding performances. In the next round, Kevin will face Carmelo, and I can't wait to see this match - it promises to be exceptional.

Roman gave straight order to Jimmy

Backstage, Reigns complains that Randy spoiled Solo's moment, and since it's the season of promotions, he offers Jimmy the opportunity to handle Orton alone tonight and earn his promotion. "Yeet!" Jimmy responds, triggering bad memories for Reigns about Jey Uso. "Not yeet," Reigns retorts.

I see little chance for Uso tonight against Orton. It's likely to be a one-sided match, but I'm sure the Tribal Chief has a plan in his head.


A mysterious message to the WWE Universe:

Last week, Karrion Kross made his return to SmackDown, only to be interrupted by Bobby Lashley. On the screens, we saw Kross and Scarlett. In his characteristic intense manner, Cross promised that something significant would happen soon. What it will be, I'm not sure, because the Doomsday guy has already made two comebacks to the main roster, and both times he promised something big. Perhaps on his third attempt, we'll finally see something substantial?


Damage CTRL great plans

Bayle annonced that after injuring Charlotte Flair and sending her in hospital for 9 month members of Damage CTRL will take over all women gold. Kabuki Warriors - Asuka and Kairi will take tag titles and Bayle herself will take part in Royal Rumble and tries to get her hand on Rhea's gold. 


Kabuki Warriors vs Zelina Vega & Michin

The match didn't even start before Zelina and Michin launched a surprise attack on their opponents from behind, hoping to gain an early advantage. However, the Kabuki Warriors, known for their supernatural tag team skills and flawless communication, were not to be underestimated. Despite Zelina and her partner's efforts, the presence of Damage CTRL members and the personal skill of the Kabuki Warriors left them with little chance. Kairi and Asuka secured a swift and nearly flawless victory. It's possible that we'll see them in a confrontation with Green and Piper in the near future.

Santos and Bobby motivation for winning their matches

Both future contenders are highly motivated to win their matches. In my personal opinion, I believe The All Mighty has the edge, as long as nothing unforeseen occurs. I anticipate Santos will put up a strong fight, but ultimately, the match will be decided by a Spear from Bobby Lashley.


Randy Orton vs Jimmy Uso

Randy, as usual, leisurely marches to the ring. Tonight, I believe Viper will decimate his opponent, who surprisingly came to the ring alone. Even Solo stayed backstage. Jimmy has some suspicions of a setup, but if the Tribal Chief gives orders, they must be executed. Initially, I thought Jimmy had zero chances at all. After two suplexes on the commentary table, the match should have been over, but the tricky Uso found a way to slow down Viper by damaging his knee.

However, Jimmy is too careless and cocky, losing valuable time by taunting Randy. At one moment when Orton was ready for the RKO, Solo appears, but LA Knight is not sleeping and covers Orton's back, allowing him to execute the RKO and pin Jimmy for the win.

A Phenomenal comeback

The taste of victory was spoiled by Roman himself. He ambushed LA from behind and, along with his brothers, was ready to finish Orton off. They exchanged blows with Viper, but Jimmy launched a sneak attack from behind. As usual, the numbers game was on the Bloodline's side. Then, on the titantron, we saw the Phenomenal inscription: AJ Styles is here! Emerging from the viewers' area, he delivered a Phenomenal Forearm to the Tribal Chief.

Accompanied by LA and Randy, they cleared the ring. Surprisingly, just when I thought we had a new alliance, Styles clotheslined Knight. Randy's expression at that moment spoke volumes. "WTF was that?" AJ came to help, then attacked Knight, and walked away, passing the Bloodline like nothing had happened. That was cool, strange, and Phenomenal all at the same time. A new storyline is set on SmackDown!

Ranking and Opinion

As always, SmackDown manages to make my heart race. Great matches and an explosive main event. The Phenomenal One is back, and that means Roman and the Bloodline have even more problems than before. There are a lot of questions about who will eventually make it to the final of the USA tournament. We have solid competitors, and in my opinion, they all deserve to win. However, only one will face Logan. I'll rank this episode as 7/10 - solid, interesting, and action-packed. I'm looking forward to seeing the next episode and how things unfold. See you soon, and don't miss it!
