Title This: WWE Smackdown Reaction 5-11

R-TruthR-Truth def. Jack Swagger:

What I Liked:

I enjoyed the match between these two. They announced the Tag Team Championship match at Over The Limit, so this match makes a lot of sense. Good outside interference to give Truth the victory. I thought this was the right way to book the match, evening up the odds. I expect to see Dolph vs. Truth on Raw, with Kofi vs. Jack on Smackdown next week. This has potential to be a great feud for the titles, as long as it does not ends after Sunday. I want relevance back to the tag team division, so let's see if any of these 4 excellent in ring competitors can carry it.

What I Disliked:

Dolph and Jack have been stuck in the same spot for such a long time. I really wish them bigger things, but at least they are over getting squashed by Brodus Clay. I just wish there was more for them to do. Also, Kofi has put his time in as well. There has to be something else they can do in the long run.

Grade: B-

Titus O'Neil and Darren Young def. Santino Marella and Zack Ryder:

What I Liked:

An interesting pairing, and I actually liked the tag team wrestling of Young and O'Neil. They look like an actual tag team. Young is more of the technical wrestler, as O'Neil is definitely the strength. Ryder still gets the crowd on their feet, especially after hitting a beautiful Broski Boot.  The action to the outside was solid, nothing spectacular. It was needed so the match did not slow down. Their cockiness is refreshing, much like a varsity athlete that we all have come across.

What I Disliked:

The finisher is less to be desired for. They need to find something else, specifically to show the strength of O'Neil. Also, they need to have a tag team name. I think they need to work on their microphone skills as well, but that will come in time.

Grade: B-

Damien Sandow cuts a promo backstage. He says the people have nobody to look up to, all of them are false prophets. He has he is enlightenment. He says this concludes the interview, and says You're Welcome.

Brodus Clay def. Hunico:

What I Liked:

Both guys attack Clay before the match, trying to gain the upper hand. We get the usual match from Clay.

What I Disliked:

Just like every other week, we still have yet to find a meaning for Clay. There is no feud, no angle, and certainly no meaning for him to wrestle guys like Hunico each week.

Grade: D
