4 Ups & 5 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Aug 6)

As CJ from GTA: San Andreas once said, "Aw sh*t - here we go again".

That's how this fan feels about the Street Profits being warmed right back up for another SmackDown Tag-Team Title tilt. Will matches between the Profits and The Usos be solid? No doubt. Does this feel just a bit boring? Absolutely.

Sadly, Montez Ford and Angelo Dawkins are the only other babyface team on the brand not-named Rey and Dominik Mysterio. That's a major, major problem for WWE. They badly need to get some fresh face units on this show, and fast. It sucks that the good guy side is so threadbare.

The Profits were only cycled out of the tag title mix a few months ago, so it doesn't sit well that they're right back in there all of a sudden. Hell, book Shane Thorne (Slapjack) as Baron Corbin's lackey in a sympathetic duo, or something.
