Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown for January 12th with Paul Heyman trying, and failing, to fix the Fatal Four-Way problem Nick Aldis has caused for Roman Reigns, who was absent from the show. Plus, Bianca Belair and Bayley meet yet again, Karrion Kross' new faction gets a name but it's not the name that's going to make a difference and a near catastrophic injury scare ends one match prematurely, the second such time in two weeks that we have gotten a legit referee stoppage on a WWE show.

heroic save when it looked like he had been taken out and wasn't going to come back. We all knew he would.

0:48.0

And we got a shield-style power bomb of Solo- Solo through the announce desk

as Randy Orton sent us off the air by pointing down at Solo

was nothing special. We however did get a very good women's match tonight between The match

tonight between Bianca Bel Air and Bailey, which is not surprising given how many times they've worked together before

and they gave him a lot of time too.

1:22.7

They gave them almost 20 minutes on this show tonight.

1:27.5

Carrying Cross's new faction has a name.

1:30.2

So too does Bobby Lashley in the street profits, although they didn't mention what that name is on television tonight, but we know what the name is. We'll talk about that.
