Title This: WWE Smackdown Reaction 2-17

February 18, 2012

Santino Marella wins the Wild Card Battle Royal:

What I Liked:

This is a typical battle royal, but with no real stars in the ring. The battle royal was decent, but there is not much to compare to differences. You know what you are going to get. Believe it or not, Santino was the right choice in this battle royal to win.

What I Disliked:

The harsh reality that Smackdown's overall roster is hurting big time. I really wish Christian would have come back or something to give ANY boost. When Otunga, Reks, Hawkins, and a bunch of NXT guys are thrown in just to fill the ring. That is a scary reality check for WWE. That is why we only had 30 and not 40 men in the Royal Rumble less than a month ago. Santino will get attacked and not compete in the E.C. match. Thats my prediction
