5 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (July 30)

2. Where Do They Go From Here?

The midcard is all over the place too.

'King' Nakamura pinned Apollo Crews in a six-man tag on this week's show, which logically means that he's heading for a shot at the Intercontinental Title sometime soon. Whilst that's fine (that pairing would produce solid matches), Naka's win here doesn't leave Crews much to crow about.

Also, what the hell is going on with Cesaro? He's gone from challenging Roman Reigns to rarely getting an entrance or any shine at all. Also also, Big E is Mr. MITB and he's completely lost in the shuffle on a show he should be a focal point on; no, not everybody can be "on top", but these guys are too talented to get lost.

Apollo looks weak heading into his next program, and the less said about the plight of 'dem 'Dirty Dawgs' the better. Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode are at a real crossroads as a team, which seems unfair considering how well they've gelled.
