Here we are! We are at the FINAL Smackdown before The Elimination Chamber TONIGHT! Just a disclaimer.. I won't have The EC Review up until most likely Monday morning/afternoon due to not being home on Sunday.
We've got a lot to talk about, so let's get into it!
-Trishy and Tiffy open Smackdown
I loved this for Trish! She totally deserves this opening and this match is going to be AMAZING! Not to mention having this match with Tiffy. These two are wonderful together. Of course it wouldn't be an opening without a little trash talk.. We also saw Chelsea Green and Piper Niven come out to exchange words. One thing led to another and we got Tiffy vs Chelsea Green. I was a little sad we didn't get this full match, and we can thank Nia and Candice for the DQ.
-Andrade vs. Jacob Fatu
We were suppose to see Solo in this match, but he gave his place up for Jacob.. Hm... there is still issues, so maybe we will see it completely breakdown after the Chamber. This match was pretty good overall, and I actually enjoyed it. In the end, we did see Fatu pick up the win to move forward for the No 1 contender match for the US Title.
**Can we all agree that Truth is a national treasure?? I loved this segment so much, and Cody did his best not to break. Lol!
-Men's Tag Team Division GO INSANE
We were suppose to see Street Profits vs Los Garzas but like last week.. it didn't happen. We saw DIY make the attack on Street Profits for what they did last week. This turned into an all out brawl when Pretty Deadly and MCMG came to bring more of a fight as well. The way this is going, I am 110% sure we will be seeing a TLC match at Mania... I would LOVE THIS! And.. it would be the only way to get not only a hell of a match but a sure fire winner.
-Men's EC Promo/Segment
The segment between Drew and Damian had me ROLLING... I just need these two roasting each other for an hour and I'll be happy. Of course.. this went on with Seth coming out looking like an oven mit.. and Punk coming out as well. WE THOUGHT.. we had Cena, but it was just Logan pissing everyone and their mama off. I have a feeling this EC will be one to remember... and going into it, I am completely unsure who will win. Screw the "spoilers"... the last time there was a couple, they ended up being wrong. Just enjoy the damn PLE.
-LA Knight vs. Santos Escobar
Did this even need to be a match? While they work so well together, and the match was pretty good overall... we've just seen it so many times at this point. In the end, it was LA Knight that moved on to the next round.
-Carmelo Hayes vs. Braun Strowman
This match was too funny, but I didn't really care for the ending. Once again these two went at it, but there was some help it seemed. Braun as attacked by Solo/Tama.. which led there being a chair in the ring. This led Hayes to pull an Eddie.. resulting in a win to move forward. What is the overall deal with Solo/Tama and Braun?? Where are we doing with this?
**The Sami and KO segment/promo was actually pretty damn good. I am very much looking forward to this match tonight, and honestly.. can't even begin to think how this will go. Do you think we will see Randy come back??
-Morgan, Rodriguez and Perez vs. Bayley, Belair and Naomi
This match was good, but not as good as I thought it was going to be. They are making it seem more and more than it was NOT Liv and Raquel that attacked Jade.. which makes things really interesting. If you'll notice at some point on Smackdown.. Nick said IF it was Liv and Raquel that attacked Jade.. and Bianca QUICKLY said "Oh, it was!".. hmmm... was it both Naomi and Bianca?? Interesting... however, in the end.. it was Roxanne that got the win over Bayley. But that wasn't the best part... At the end, Alexa appeared to take out Roxanne. From there we got a little glitch, indicating that The Wyatt Sicks were watching.. This is about to get GOOD!
-Carmelo Hayes vs. LA Knight vs. Jacob Fatu
Weirdly enough, this match was pretty good. There was a few moments where there were mislicks but overall.. I enjoyed it. We did see something very interesting.. where basically Fatu did all the hard work, and LA Knight came in to steal the win. WOAH.. that I didn't expect at all. I fully expected Jacob to win in a shocking turn of events. But now we will see the big match.. and hopefully have LA Knight pick up the US title once again. Or was this a set up for Jacob to put himself in as well?
-The Final Cody Promo before EC
Man, this just keeps getting weirder and weirder... Cody came out to talk about everything with Michael Cole, but was interrupted by Cole saying there was something for him.. from The Rock. It was a custom truck that was brought out for Cody. Not long after that.. The Rock appeared on screen doing his best to buy Cody's soul with all the gifts he could. He had a strap with him.. that had Cody's Soul written on it, along with the date that Dusty Rhodes died. WHAT...
At this point, I don't know where they are going with this. Like I said before, this isn't my cup of tea. It's weird and disturbing.. but whatever. I guess we will find out what will happen TONIGHT!
Overall: 7.3/10
===============================================================
Predictions:
Women's EC: Bianca
Men's: Punk
