#LAWTAKE - WWE SMACKDOWN 2/24/23
Good Friday my peoples! Here we are for another #LAWTAKE but this week it’s the final WWE product of the week - Smackdown live!
Bray Wyatt is back and we guess he’s coming for Bobby Lashley? Cool story folks.
Natty Never Wins. Shayna did some damn good work here over the arm and is proving that the tag team of her and Ronda are not to be fucked with.
Teegan Nox got a bit of offense here if that’s worth noting.
LA Knight is so money and I don’t care who disagrees. The crowd is reacting. Keep this guy hot man. Not a bad match with Kofi but the wrong decision for LA to lose. He needs more wins to back up the smack talk. Yeah!
Gunther manhandled Madcap like a little boy and I loved every minute of it. Best IC Champ in years. Doesn’t matter who his next 8 challengers will be because this guy ain’t and shouldn’t lose.
Dom trying to get the crowd to get behind Charlotte as we sell their match for mania does not does not does not warrant a main event slot for night one of Mania. Sorry to the lady audience, but this doesn’t scream main event.
Rhea Ripley is over as fuck. I love her. Rhea Ripley Mob we heeere!
Karrion Kross Vs Rey Mysterio feels like it won’t be ending anytime soon as far as one on one or at least until Rey gets his win back.
Karrion Kross has no direction for Mania besides the Andre the Giant Battle Royal and that’s just that.
Viking Raiders are back and stronger than previous efforts but they too have no direction for Mania besides the Andre the Giant Battle Royal.
Speaking of the Andre the Giant Battle Royal, literally everyone in this Braun/Richochet/Drew/Sheamus segment will be in that thing if neither of them win the IC Title Battle Royal at the 3/12 MSG house show. Winner of that goes to Mania to fight Gunther. Still doesn’t matter
Dom Vs Rey for Mania is very very possible and that’s a wild sell for Mania. Nothing official yet but with still many weeks to go this doesn’t need to be announced until the week of and it’ll be sold with ease.
Smackdown Is Sami! The slow build for this feud is so damn good yo. Will he? Won’t he? We know Jey will aid his brother - but when? The best part of waiting for this story to boil over.
