This week's Smackdown! had some cool stuff. Eddy Guererro and Ultimo Dragon had a fantastic match; I didn't expect Dragon to win a berth on a title run on only his second televised match, so I wasn't upset that he lost. Also, the spots between Kurt Angle and Brock Lesner were interesting, giving Brock more of a personality. The Fatal Four-Way tag match has now likely set up Billy Kidman's heel turn against Rey at Vengeance.


There was some really dumb stuff too. Sable against Stephanie is a boneheaded idea, especially with Vince already in a match. Now there'll be two matches with non-wrestlers at the PPV, likely involving many extra-curriculars to make up for the lack of talent.


Also: why is Torrie now acting as Billy Gunn's girlfriend? Bad enough she's been used to help get him over with fans again... but we also know that she's Kidman's fiancee. This makes the whole thing even less believable.


A mixed bag of stuff for sure. I think the good outweighed the bad though. I still think it was the better show this week.
