Solomonster reviews WWE Smackdown from Boston, but wonders why he even bothered to do so. It didn't help that they were missing practically ALL of their major names, but that's no excuse to produce dreadfully boring, lifeless television like this. He tries to highlight the few bright spots and otherwise is brutally honest with his assessment of this show (and the SD women's title scene).

| 0:00.0 | Oh my God. |
| 0:03.0 | You know, I'm honestly sitting here and I'm debating what's worse? |
| 0:08.4 | Smackdown or the Mets? |
| 0:10.4 | And the Mets have lost 14 of their last 16. |
| 0:13.0 | I'm still not convinced. |

| 0:20.4 | Smackdown was in Boston tonight. |
| 0:23.2 | No Cody Rhodes, no John Sina, no Brock Lesnar, no Logan Paul, |

| 0:34.7 | But we had Solo Sakoa and the MFTs. They were all over this show, including the |
| 0:40.3 | main event. Six-man tag team match in the main event. You know, at least tonight, we actually |
| 0:47.2 | had a clean finish in the main event. I could not say that for Raw Monday, not. I could not |

| 1:00.0 | That's great. Sammy Zane is officially now a member of the Smackdown roster. |
| 1:08.3 | They made it official. It kind of felt that way anyway. Last week, he got a win over Solo |
| 1:13.3 | Sacoa. It felt like he should be going for the United States championship. Then they attacked him |
| 1:17.6 | on Raw Monday. Now, I got to deal with the MFTs on Monday. It only felt natural that you would |
| 1:22.9 | move Sammy over to Smackdown. They made that official. And he was in the main event tonight, |
| 1:27.1 | and he got another win. |
