7 Ups & 2 Downs From WWE SmackDown (April 28)

You won't find much negativity here.

WWE fans across the globe braced themselves for the usual sh*tty, phoned-in Draft special on this week's SmackDown. Picks would be lazily doled out, and the company's creative team would use such distractions as an excuse to take the week off from full-time stories found elsewhere, right?

Not this time - SmackDown's staff worked hard to keep several plots burning away heading into Backlash, and even successfully cast a cloud of doubt over The Bloodline's future. Oh, and WWE stood by their reigning Undisputed Tag-Team Champs despite rumours about a title change pre-Saudi Arabia.

That could still happen soon-ish, but the belts are safe with Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn for now. They produced a worthy follow-up to WrestleMania genius opposite The Usos, and there were a few other tasty matches elsewhere that either flat out rocked or pushed angles along.

You might be totally surprised by the level of praise showered on this Draft episode, but...the little things add up. Plus, it was great to see WWE keep everything ticking along in the background without pushing some hard reset button overnight.

Here's all the good and bad.
