22 WTF Moments From WWE SmackDown Live (July 19)
Cesaro and D-Von Dudley look nothing alike you know...
After months of speculation the WWE draft has finally taken place and the main thing that I'm saying to myself after the event is 'my goodness, SmackDown got royally f****d in the bottom by RAW, didn't they?'
RAW certainly got the better of the draw as we should have expected given they have an extra hour of television to fill each week and have the Queen of Selfishness herself Stephanie McMahon steering their proverbial ship.
But given the push we expected to be handed out to Shane McMahon's blue brand, the fact they've only got Dean Ambrose, Randy Orton, Bray Wyatt, AJ Styles and John Cena with any sort of real star power to them leaves me doubting their chances to make a real fist of it against RAW.
The rest of the draft was pretty formulaic with certain picks heading to the brand we all expected them to. The NXT six though... goodness me that was ever so slightly unexpected wasn't it?
As for the Championship rematch between Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose, I suppose The Lunatic Fringe's big win isn't too much of a WTF Moment. You'd expect the SmackDown Live man to pick up the big win to give the new show some sort of prestige.
Here are 22 WTF Moments from the first ever SmackDown Live. Make sure to check out the accompanying video for this article on WhatCulture Wrestling's YouTube channel.
20. I'm Not Dealing With The Pre-Show
If WWE don't value some content enough to have it aired on the USA Network, quite frankly, it's not worth my time.
However, a number of you tweeted me with a pretty huge WTF Moment, or moments, from the SmackDown Live Pre-show surrounding your least favourite crowd alterer, and mine, Kevin Dunn. Or was it Triple H? Whoever it was you could hear them telling Renee and pals what to say, and even dishing out some tellings off when they said something out of turn. Apparently.
Kevin, if indeed it was him, can't keep his nose out of our business can he?
