SMACKDOWN 22/23 of May

Happy Memorial Day to all those who have given their lives for our country, those still service and those retired, we THANK YOU for your service

The show is opening with The Miz/John Morrison going on and on once again how it was Otis that won Money in the Bank. Miz/Morrison running off at the mouth about Braun, who is now at the ring. Morrison can’t shut up and now Miz is in a match with Braun. When will Miz/Morrison learn not to tick off Braun. Braun with the win

A.J Styles facing Shinsuke in the first round of the Intercontinental Belt. (A.J is now a perminate member of Smackdown) That was one well of a match with, A.J getting the win. He will advance to face Elias with the winner to go on for a chance at the belt.

Charlotte facing Bayley, how will Sasha play a part in all of this. You can see the doubt that Sasha is having. It’s time to turn the Bayley/Sasha story on its head. (Charlotte/Nia/Natalya will face in a triple threat match to meet Asuka at Backlash for the Women’s Raw Title) Bayley still cheats for the win by holding the ropes.

Sonya Deville/Dolph meeting Mandy Rose/Otis in a mixed tag team match. Of course it was Sonya pinning Mandy after the match fell apart. (Cory really needs to just shut up). I really would love to see Mandy just go all out bad bitch and beat the shit out of Sonya.

Jeff Hardy vs Sheamus for the right to face A.J Styles in the final of the Intercontinental Belt tournament. Sheamus has been so loud and negative at Jeff with all the trouble he has been going through the last couple of years. Sheamus will do anything to put an end to Jeff. Sheamus trashing talking Jeff trying to throw him off. Somehow Jeff Hardy stacked Sheamus to steal the win. Jeff will face Daniel Bryan for the right to go to the finals.

**NXT**

Karrion Kross/Scarlett open the show. Feel sorry for the opponent, not much of a fight. Tomasso Ciampa with a surprise visit to the ring post match. More I see Tomasson, the more I become a fan. Tomasson will face Karrion in a match at Take Over.

Cruiserweight Title Tournament has El Hijo Del Fantasma at 1 and 1 facing Akira Tozawa. This will be one hell of a match. Fantasma with the win, they are now both 2 wins and 1 loss. It was one hell of a match, if you blinked you missed something.

Mia Yim facing Santana Garrett — It’s a strong match for Mia who gets the win. Santana was a good match but Mia was too strong. Here comes Candice/Johnny causing trouble again. Candice throwing in her face the loss to Charlotte, Candice complaining that if she would of had the chance, she would of won. Johnny pulled down the rope when Mia tried to go after Candice. Keith Lee came out to help Mia, (Keith/Mia are dating in real life)

Finn Balor lost thanks to Damien Priest. Damien is going after Finn. Cameron Grimes would of never gotten the win on his own.

Roderick Strong facing Dexter Lumis. Dexter is creepy but he is good. Dexter has seem to have gotten in Roderick’s head a little. Lumis took a beating but Strong managed to steal the win. Dexter has gone after Strong and is putting him to sleep. Adam Cole tried to take out Lumis but Dream showed up to help Dexter out. That was a hell of a fly by Dream but it was worth it.

Oney Lorcan/Danny Burch in a tag match facing Ever Rise (new team, first time to see them but experienced) Lorcan and Berch with the win.

Matt Riddle talking to Tim Thatcher. Matt will face Tim in the cage in a Tap out or Knock out match.

Kushida (2 – 0)Jake Atlas also at 2 and 0 facing Drake Maverick (1 win, 1 loss) in a do or die match in the cruiserweight tournament. What a hell of a match, I still can’t believe taht Drake took this kind of a beating. Kushida gave him everything he had and more, but still somehow managed to steal the win. (Jake at ringside cheering Drake on) The 3 will meet in a triple threat match next week to see who goes to the final.

Rhea Ripley in her return meeting Io Shari. This was one hell of a match but all of a sudden, Charlotte has shown up, which of course caused issues in the end and the match ending Thanks to Charlotte sticking her nose in.
