Jeremy Lambert's Smackdown Notes

• AHHHHHHHAHAHA JEFF HARDY DID HIS POSE AFTER DELIVERING A "TOUGH LINE." It reminded me very much of Rip in No Holds Barred. Everyone check out the review of No Holds Barred that Joseph and I did many months ago. Our review is better than SmackDown.
• JBL! He's ready for a Friday night fight but I was told by Elton John that Saturday night is when it's alright to fight.
• IT'S BOSS TIME! The Horror Show at Extreme Rules.
• I very much like that they still use WWE MAGAZINE EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS in the Network era to get you to go watch the PPV.
• Can confirm Sasha Banks' definition of greatness is correct according to Merrium-Webster. We will see if they update the next edition to include the new definition.
• Why does Sasha still have the Raw Women's Title? Zord Stephanie should have made her give it back.
• Alexa has bad balance
• The Reds are up 6-1 after 6.
• Bayley and Sasha rule
• Bayley is says this is Bliss vs. Cross for the first time ever. Not technically correct as they faced at NXT Download Festival in 2016, but by WWE standards, it's close enough. So, I'll allow it.
• I'm on a different level like my energy.
• Bayley rules on commentary
• Great psychology by Bliss to attack the ribs. Never show your weakness with bandaids.
• Bayley & Banks vs. Cole & Graves is the SummerSlam main event
• Good match between Alexa and Nikki. The "you can totally do it" sounds condescending from Alexa. Layers?
• Airing this Swamp Fight video package right after 30-minutes of Alexa Bliss is a nice reminder that Bliss and the announcers made no mention of her being Sister Abigail. Do we have a Hogan/Warrior situation on our hands?
• Reds lead 7-1 after 7
• So Braun isn't dead because the lake was organic? I hear organic is good for you so maybe Braun will be stronger.
• Who taught Riddle how to use the hair crimp? Is that what it's called? I barely comb my hair, much less crimp or curl it.
• Perfectly acceptable match and rebound victory for Riddle.
• "I don't know how things works." MATT RIDDLE IS SHOOTING!
• I'm willing to bet the smell in Riddle's car does not fade.
• Putting a bounty on Riddle is actually good.
• Reds lead 7-1 after 8.
• Hashtag
• They're really trying with this Bar Fight stuff.
• WWE actively trying to make hashtags bad with Miz & Morrison. I respect it.
• Okay, Miz & Morrison dancing has turned this around. MORE MORRISON!
• ATOBTR
• This is bad. Naomi is crushing it though.
• ACT LIKE A LADY! It's a banger song, alright.
• Naomi did the best should could but I dunno if that actually helped.
• A BIG E SINGLES RUN?!?!?!?!
• PUT YO MEAT ON MY MEAT (gently)!!! I already know the BlueChew read for tonight.
• Land of opportunity here on SmackDown with these four going for an Intercontinental Title match.
• HE SUPLEXED HIM OUT OF THE RING!
• Gable should have won.
• Nice that Metalik got some shine on AJ after the bout. That match should rule next week.
• Very happy Otis and Mandy are still in love. Quarantine has been rough for many couples because this is proof that true love still exists in 2020.
• Cesaro and Nakamura rule.
• YES! Give me Big E vs. Nakamura and Big E vs. Cesaro as he works his way to beating AJ and then beating Braun and holding all the titles on SmackDown.
• Jeff and Sheamus are going to be friends after this bar fight and form a tag team called The Bar Brothers
• I will say that these video packages have been very good, proof that the WWE production team can take any material and make it seem important, which is why the cinematic matches do so well. WWE should just be movies. WWE Films.
• There's a Conor McGregor picture in this bar so you know it's a real Irish bar.
• I'M THE BAR!
• SOMEONE THROW A BASKETBALL!
• OR A DART!
• YES! JEFF IS THROWING BASKETBALLS! THIS RULES!
• This is so much better than the Swamp Fight.
• Sheamus 100% said, "I need to take my shirt off during this fight and show how jacked I am" and I do not blame him.
• These sound effects rule.
• This would be good promotion for this bar but going to a bar in Florida is a bad idea right now even if they were open. It's Florida. They're probably open. Still, don't go.
• WHY IS THERE A COMMERCIAL DURING THIS?!?!?!
• DRAMATIC MUSIC! THE BARTENDER HAS TURNED!
• His face will be painted.
• HEROIC MUSIC!
• I'm assuming there was a crash pad on that swanton spot, but Jeff is still a crazy person.
• Let that be a lesson, kids. If you wan to conquer your demons, you just need facepaint.
• GOOD TIME RATING SCALE: Folklore better
