Isenberg Reacts: WWE Smackdown Live “Is Ellsworth’s Time Finally Up?”

By Josh Isenberg

American Alpha defeated The Spirit Squad

Ready, willing and Gable. Chad Gable and Jason Jordan will join the Survivor Series tag team match, thanks to a victory over Mikey and Kenny. The match was one sided for most of it, until Jordan came in and cleaned house. I love his energy and intensity after rattling off a few of his suplexes. I also enjoy how they go from 0-100 so fast and smooth. The match had an obvious winner, but it also reminded us that WWE is still so unsure on how to book American Alpha.

It seems like they are so scared to push them too fast, right?

Speaking of tag teams, Jimmy and Jey Uso defeated The Headbangers in a quick match. It might have lasted 3 or 4 minutes? Good for Mosh and Thrasher taking an easy payday and reliving their youth. I just wonder why WWE would not use The Ascension or The Vaudevillians in this spot? I assume they are really trying to stay away from heel vs. heel. What about a face team of Fandango and Tyler Breeze? Man, talk about untapped potential.
