7 Ups & 0 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Sep 10)

6. Filler, But Good Filler

Sami Zayn went for it with that outfit choice. The heel sported a Knicks jersey and some "I Love New York" pyjama bottoms, then brought out a "hometown favourite". That ruse turned out to be Atlanta Hawks' point guard Trae Young, and MSG hated it.

Good.

The resultant 10-man tag could've been a total waste of time, but it was surprisingly decent. Everybody got a spot or two in, the action flowed without any pesky botches, and The Garden lost their minds when Young choked Rey Mysterio then got ejected from ringside by the ref.

Post-match, Big E dispensed with his usual goofy nonsense and cut an impassioned promo about cashing in MITB. Everything clicked here, and that's amazing because it probably shouldn't have. This was a short sprint, celeb cameo and babyface promo trio done right.
