SD!'s New Look
It's been a while since I've done a Nickel that wasn't a complete show recap, so I figured now was the right time. Was it me, or was Smackdown off the charts this week? I went there live at MSG last Tuesday as can be read in my Dynasty Manifesto: Smackdown at MSG II, which won AOTD thanks to the community.
Back to SD!—it was really great. The new look is really great now that the rosters have be shaken up. Rey Mysterio and Jeff Hardy, two guys I'm not fans of, had one heck of a show in the ring. Chris Jericho really ran that show. All I can say is that...
JERICHO IS SD!
It shows how much better-utilized he is here than he was on RAW. Punk has fit right in on Friday nights, I like him on SD, knew he was a SD! guy since I first saw him.
RAW and Divas Division
Ummm, I don't know what to say about RAW. This is my favorite brand, but my goodness it has grown pale, dull, and boring.
Miz cut a promo that might have been one of the best I've ever heard. Other than that, nothing else drew me in. I might be shifting to SD!—my favorite star is there after all. WWE continues to pursue this "Santina" story and it's just further burying the Divas division.
Maryse is the Divas champion, and she didn't even get to wrestle in a tag match. Every time there is multi-diva match (more than two), it's destined to be under three minutes and will always leaves multiple divas without having the chance to wrestle in the match.
Brief View on Current Tag Division
Cryme Tyme is a tag team on SD!, but there aren't any tag titles? RAW has taken the Colons and their unified tag titles. It's ridiculous how Priceless are the only contenders and it's obvious they'll take the titles from them.
The division is so down under right now I don't even know where to start or look. It looks as if teams won't be revitalized anytime soon, so scrap them on SD! until and or unless they get a pair of tag titles back.
Cryme Tyme looks like they'll be getting no time...or at least time that they'll do anything important. I say put them with R-Truth and form some sort of faction.
Back to RAW: Matches between the Colons and Priceless has already started with a match on Superstars between DiBiase and Primo Colon, I believe. This division is going to be horrible for a quite a while—buckle your seat belts, folks.
Some food for thought
What is the greatest Diva rivalry? It's an interesting question, but many have come up with Trish Stratus vs Lita. Those two have had a rich history, but I've seen a greater rivarly.
With that said, Michelle McCool vs Maryse is the best Diva rivalry I've seen. I'm not going too far back in diva history because I know Alundra Blayze, Fabulous Moolah and many of the other divas of the past are legendary.
Anyway, I recommend this feud to everyone. They've fought on numerous occasions and is the only, if any, heel vs heel feud that went down. I'm open to debate. I encourage it in fact. Why do you think Maryse went to RAW
