(July 1st, 2011)
This week, we continue the buildup toward WWE Money In The Bank 2011 with the WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11 (July 1st 2011).
Right off the bat, we kick off the show with reigning World Champion Randy Orton against the World Strongest Man Mark Henry.
Not a bad way to kick off the show, but having the World Champion in the opening match?
Randy Orton vs Mark Henry
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
Randy Orton this week had a task that anyone would find daunting, facing the world’s strongest man Mark Henry. As if the task isn’t normally hard enough on it’s own, Mark Henry has been on a remapage for a while now since his feud with the Big Show began.
This match had a lot of ups and downs for both Orton and Henry, however towards the end of the match when it looked as there there was no way to stop Mark Henry, then the Big Show’s music played.
However The Big Show was nowhere to be seen as the music played and it opened up an oppurtunity for Randy Orton to take advantage and did he ever. He used the advantage to RKO mark henry outside the ring for the count out win.
After the match Mark would go onto attack the production crew in an attempt to find out who played Big Show’s music. Finding no definitive answer he then proceded to wreck the production area, before throwing one of the production crew onto the floor.
Segment Rating: 3.8 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: This was a really good match and could have been better had it been allowed to continue and play out properly.
Daniel Bryan vs Ted DiBiase
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
This match was important for both superstars more so for Ted Dibiase then for Daniel Bryan. Ted is still trying to get back on track after sufferring a long losing streak throughout the winter and spring.
As you would expect this match was fast and furious, while there wasn’t a lot of high flying in this match there were many many counters by both of these awesome superstars, and of course a lot of submission attempts by Daniel Bryan.
The match would eventually spill outside the ring where DiBiase would ram Bryan into the ring post and then into the barrier, possibly injuring Bryan. Daniel Bryan would come back on the rebound and would win the match via submission.
Segment Rating: 3.5 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: This match to me showcases what WWE and other companies can do when they put the focus on the younger guys instead of constantly on the vets and the top names of the company.
Cody Rhodes Confronts Ted DiBiase Backstage
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
This was an interesting confrontation to me as Cody basically blasted Ted apart for losing a match againt Daniel Bryan. Cody would degrade Ted for how long it had been since he’d had an impressive or definitive victory.
Segment Rating: 2.5 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: While I don’t think anyone should ever have to listen to the ramblings of a maniac like Cody, in other ways I think these confrontations are really helping Ted to get back on track.
Ranjin Singh Speaks on the Khali/Jinder Mahal Situation
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
This was a segment that I enjoyed in some ways because it finally explained why Khali has returned to the monster he once was instead of the goof he had become recently. Basicially Kahli’s family was poor when his sister was to marry Jinder Mahal so, Mahal’s family had to pay the dowery for the wedding. Jinder constantly reminds Khali of this fact and threatens to embarass Khali’s sisters and her entire family by divorcing her.
Segment Rating: 3 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: This was a welcome segment as I was getting tired of hearing Jinder ramble on week after week and not understanding a word of it.
Christian vs Sin Cara
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
This match was in a lot of ways hard for me to watch. I am a huge huge fan of Christian and felt he has gotten the shaft recently, however I am not against Sin Cara I love what this guy has done both internationally and within the WWE so far. This match had a lot of back and forth from both of these guys and had a lot of high impact, high flair moves from both of these superstars as is to be expected from these two epic men.
Christian at times seemed at a loose as for how to counter Sin Cara ‘s offence. On the other hand though Sin Cara had to try and counter Christian’s more grounded attacks. Ultimately Christian would win the match with a spear as an homeage to his best friend Edge. Sin Cara undefeated streak in WWE is no more.
Segment Rating: 4.3 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: I enjoyed this match however I do believe it would have been better had both of these guys been faces and fought an honest match. However this proves what I have always known and believed about Christian he is one hell of an athlete. However take nothing away from Sin Cara this was his best match yet even though it ended in a loss.
Ezekiel Jackson vs Cody Rhodes
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
This match wasn’t truly one on one though it should have been. Every time Zeke would get the advantage Ted would attempt to get involved and give Cody some breathing room.
It was for the most part effective until Ted got his face slammed into the ring post, after the distraction Cody would take advantage and finish the match via the Cross Rhodes.
Segment Rating: 2.8 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: With both Cody and Ted out at ringside I didn’t expect fairness in this match. Truth be told if Cody had to take on Zeke by himself he would’ve been demolished.
Johnny Curtis
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
Honestly this guys segments have always been bizare and tonights was no less bizare. He said he didn’t want to be a smart ass or anything and he definetly didn’t want to paint himself into a corner.
Segment Rating: 1 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: I honestly would be happy if they’d just go ahead and premiere this guy instead of continuing this backstage crap.
Kane vs Wade Barett
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
There was a decent amount of back and forht in this bout however I was honestly very surprised by how much offense Barett had in this match. Kane is a very very good athlete though he rarely gets the push he should. This match showcased both of the superstars well and gave each man just a small taste of the opposition for Money in The Bank.
This match featured a lot more high slying from Kane then we are used to he would go to the top rope twice. Once for a cross body and once for a flying clothsline. This match would ultimately end after Wade attempted and missed a big boot, Kane would take the advantage and Chokeslam Barett for the win.
Segment Rating: 3 out of 5.
Final Thoughts: I’m not quite sure what to make of this match, on the one hand it makes Wade Barett look really good even though he lost yet at the same time it helped to boost Kane’s momentum going into the MITB PPV.
Randy Orton & Christian MITB Contract Signing
WWE SmackDown Review 07/01/11
During this contract signing, we see the usual back and forth verbal battle between the challenger and the champion. Both guys believe that they can beat the other and the other can’t beat them. There is really nothing much to see or listen to during the contract signing, that is until Sheamus returns and breaks up the contract signing only to start beating the hell out of Orton and Christian.
Sheamus would then proceed to tear up the contract to cast doubt on the direction of Smackdown World title picture.
Final Thoughts: Honestly if it hadn’t been for sheamus returning this would have been the absoluetly dulles part of the show.
Segment Rating: 3 out of 5.
