Before reviewing this episode of Talking Smack, I would like to share my opinion on why I love this show so much. Here, we have Daniel. He is a die-hard pro-wrestling fan and he loves debates. Then we get all kinds of talents giving out their soul during their interview. We get to see their other side more often that not. This show teaches about how pro wrestling. Not many WWE programs are there which try to educate Marks like this show.
On a side note, the Undertaker is indeed back to roll in the mud.
Women's Team:
I didn't notice earlier that Nicki had lost a tooth. :O She looked like a cute silly girl. :P The SD team wanted to define themselves as Junkyard Dogs as coined by Becky. But Natalya's obsession with cats was fun to watch. Naomi was talking about the Power of Positivity. ;) It seems that the New Day is quite infectious. All girls were having a lot of fun.
In my opinion, Foley was not correct last day, when he accused Daniel having no zeal for the industry. Daniel enjoys each and every moment in WWE. An instant example would be Daniel holding two mics at once during the show; that was so hilarious.
The Miz:
He threw a powerful promo. It has become a habit of the Miz giving wonderful Promos in-ring and backstage each and every time. Daniel is, in fact, the real fan of the Miz. He is his best friend. The truth is spoken.
Daniel is always playing the card of the career slope of Heath Slater and Dolph Ziggler for why SD is better and it is one of the many true reasons of why SD is getting high TRP. :)
Edge and Ellsworth:
It was amazing to know that even Edge got the goosebump with the Undertaker's entrance. Edge confessed that he was a fan of Ellsworth. It was great to have the 5s pose of Edge and Ellsworth. Edge rightly explained why he loved Ellsworth and why a Smark would love WWE. I know there are many Smarks who are WWE-haters but no one can reject Edge's statement.

The show started with Bryan accusing Renee as the traitor as she hosted Raw Talk which was so fun: Bryans asks, "Who is your Boss?" :D
Naty's role will be felt in the Survivor Series, I can guaranty that. :) And btw, I love Renee Young... ;) Bryan's fun comments on Raw Brand's obsession with Attitude Era were beautifully delivered.
American Alpha put a statement against the New Day that they are not good. So looking forward to their response on Raw, come on, feed it up.
The show ended with Dean Ambrose showing his gratitude towards Ellsworth and told what he could have done if he was to lose the main event: "Rip a man's arms off and beating him with his own hands", Dean Ambrose is sick... :D
The stipulation between Ambrose and Styles in TLC as a TLC match was an unexpected announcement for me and Dean both. They must have told them earlier, but Dean was surely had no idea what to do in a TLC. Dean repeatedly talking about his daily hard work and regular non-aired performances just gives the Smarks more insights on how Pro Wrestling industry really works and hard it can be. Cheers for Dean and all the regular travelling performers.

The show started with James Ellsworth, Dean Ambrose and AJ Styles talking trash. What could have been a better starting segment to the Smackdown Live than this? It is the best way to put Smackdown on the frontline which was expected to be a hard task after the great show in Hell in a Cell of Raw brand.
The behind-the-screen conversation between Ellsworth and Daniel Bryan may spice up Ellsworth's role in WWE. I sincerely request the writers to include Ellsworth in the storyline so that he can show his skills. :)
Randy Orton vs Kane (No DQ Match):
The match completed pretty fast which was anticipated considering that writers need to put more time and effort building up the relation between the Wyatts and Randy than Randy's singular rivalry. There are still questions pending on Randy's change of intention to join the Wyatts and the logic which the writers are trying to sell.
Baron Corbin has got a new promotional segment which was cool. The writers need to get him involved in a feud as soon as possible.
Alexa Bliss-Carmella vs Becky Lynch-Nicki Bella:
The match was nicely paced with Becky and Alexa showing their nice in-ring skills. The writers are putting a lot of responsibilities on Alexa giving her more TV time. The mic skills shown by Carmella and Alexa was good.
Their discussion about Survivor series was succeeded by Shane McMohan assigning Natalya as SD Women's team's coach. Natalya's presence in the Survivor Series will indeed bring fun to the match.
American Alpha vs Spirit Squad:
The American Alpha have been showing nice moves and producing good matches for a long time. I am still expecting them to better their mic skills personally, though.
MizTV:
Sending Daniel Bryan as the special guest with continuous YES and NO chants was a wonderful way to popularise MizTV. The MizTV soon resulted in an open challenge by Dolph Zack, oops, Ziggler for Intercontinental Championship with the Miz at the ringside. The match with Curt Hawkins, as it turned out to be his debut, was fast, too fast! :D The superkick by Dolph was picture-perfect.
The Wyatt brother's segment with Randy's eyes having a fire was very childish. I really am expecting the writers to write a better story for Randy and Wyatts or else dismiss their band of misfits.
The Usos vs The Headbangers:
The match started with the Usos attack the Headbangers first before the bell even rang. It was nicely booked for the Headbangers to show some good old power moves. The match was okayish in terms of moves. The end segment of the match again showcased the Uso's chemistry being a heel.
Dean Ambrose vs AJ Styles:
It was an awesome match. The match was full of counter moves. Both Ambrose, Styles and, wait for it, the chin that runs the inn, the Idiot, the legendary, James Ellsworth who just settled the score right with Ambrose just threw the roof off with their impeccable performance. Kudos to all.
In this Smackdown episode, most parts of the teams for Survivor Series were declared. The men's team is heelish while the tag team division seems to be the face in the PPV. I hope to see some more heated conversation in Raw and next episode of Smackdown in terms of building up a rivalry in the Survivor Series.
