4 Ups And 4 Downs From Last Night’s WWE SmackDown (Aug 13)

1. Cesaro Losing Again

Cesaro got pinned twice this week. I'm not a fan of that at all. While wins and losses aren't that important in the grand scheme of things, they certainly help in terms of making a wrestler look like a big star. If a guy loses all the time, no matter how good he is in the ring, fans will see him as a loser. On Raw, Cesaro was pinned clean out of nowhere after a Randy Orton RKO "out of nowhere." On Smackdown, he was pinned by Seth Rollins, who held onto the tights to get the win after the dreaded rollup that most people can't seem to kick out of. After the match, Cesaro got his heat back when he and Neville teamed up to take out Kevin Owens, but it still doesn't change the fact that Cesaro lost two matches in a week. This is a problem with WWE booking where people trade wins so much or guys that need wins don't get them. Then again, they probably don't think it matters too much since it was on Smackdown.
