So Smackdown is a weird show, right? That's not just me. This week's especially.

Had me completely confounded, is that a word? No, that's not, but I've made it up so we keep on going. I mean, some of the stuff with Drew McIntyre and some of the stuff with Julia, it made me rise in eyebrow, and now I'm worried I've just turned into a bit of an idiot. Not turned into, I've been an idiot for the last 30 years or so. Hello, welcome to Wops

and Downs, the only rest of view show you need. This is the finger of power. So if I am wrong, you get mad at my finger and not at me and no one has ever said that sentence. But yes, Smackdown is in the books. Let's give the good bits and up. Bad bits of down. Right. So, Cody Rhodes came out at first because of course he had beaten Drew McIntyre at

Sandalight's main event and that freaked me out.

Satellite, Bad bits are down. Right, so, Cody Rhodes came out at first because of course he had beaten Drew McIntyre at Sannett's main event.

And that freaked me out. Satellite main event feels like it happened 78 years ago, which may tie into other issues I do not know.

Now, Rhodes didn't even care that he had retained his title by using the belt, because who brought that championship into the ring to begin with?

It was Drew McIntyre. So essentially Cody had become Druid's dad here, and he was teaching him a lesson. Also in the past, Cody hasn't used such weapons like when he fought John Cena, so he has learned from his mistakes. Now, I did like this. When it comes to wrestling law, as Kevin Owings would tell us all the time, if we do not use the past to influence the present, then why the flubber we're here to begin with? He also called Drew McIntyre, the most self-absorred wrestler ever who keeps getting himself into trouble, so he should go and look into the mirror and realize he is to blame when he was actually going to go sit with the fans because he wanted to watch an episode of Smackdown. I was like, man, if that is the follow-up for our world champion, after S&ME, I'm going to have a bit of a breakdown. But instead, Alastair Black's music hit, he came out with Zelina, who was no longer Vega, we've lost her last name, and they were bass like Cody, we do not like you. I do have to put one on the crying counter because Black was so happy, he set Damien Priest on fire.

You can't say that. And basically they both have chips on their shoulder. Cody has a championship

on his, so they want to with that belt. Zine then slapped him because she's watched wrestling before

and she knows even though they've done

nothing to deserve a title shot or at Cody, the best way to get into a wrestler's head is by slapping

him. She was right as well because just as they were about to fight Nick Alders came out.

He was like, I was so happy, you have had this shindick at the start of my show,

but I have no main event, so now I'm going to put you in the last match, Alistair versus Cody. Now, this was a little bit transparent to me. It kind of felt the create team this week had gone, we need to do something new, so somebody come up with something new, but at the same time, it was something new, and it did have me intrigued. I was like, how is this going to end? As it turned

out, I wasn't going to like it. But I didn't know that the start of Smackdown, so I'm giving it up. Charlotte Flare, Alexa Bliss and Jay Cargill were all then shown arriving at the building, so we should find them all. I mean, the first segment had happened and you couldn't turn up to work on time, somebody needs a suspension of pay.

India Draganov also was walking to the ring for his US title challenge when Tammar happened and you couldn't turn up to work on time. Somebody needs a suspension of pay.

Ilya Dragonov also was walking to the ring for his US title challenge when Tabatonga

just looked at him because wrestlers like doing that. And yes, Elya was like, who wants to challenge

me? And out came DIY. Tomaso Champ was like, oh, I'm not a jackass. I should have got

the shot last week when Elya, in the kind of nonbaby-faced way, although he's not a traditional baby face, went, I will not fight you, bald man, I will fight the one with hair. That's right, he was pointing at Johnny Gargano. Now, surely the plan here was to try and kill each other, because they were booting each other so hard in the face. I thought John Travolta, Nicholas Cage was going to turn up.

And this behind the head super kick that Johnny Gargano gave to Elyanog, has anyone seen Elyar today? Because again, his face may be off. We also saw a flipping Poison Rana, which you never see in WWE. So that got me excited. And they were both trying to do dives and they were cutting off dives. and Lee had Dragonov kept using his head and it felt like he was actually headbying people because he's totally nuts. Honestly, this felt like nothing else on the show, which is a massively good thing. And if you want to be a total nerd, you could even say, oh my gosh, Johnny Gargano's gone back to his PWG days. Again, that's a wild exaggeration, but it's also
