The show was much better than this week's RAW episode
#4 Best/worst: The Mysterio & Orton saga continues

There's something very unnerving about the whole storyline with Mysterio and Orton
Last week, we saw Randy Orton rip off Rey Mysterio's mask. This week, he carried the mask to the ring, to brag about what he'd done on last week's show. Of course, Rey Mysterio would hear none of it and rushed to the ring. A battle exploded between the two men.

@wwe#SDLive could easily have a third version of the #SmackDownSix right now with talent like AJ, Bryan, Joe, Shinsuke, Jeff, Rey plus guys like Orton, an underused Shelton or Almas.
Randy Orton once again got the best of Rey Mysterio. I love the build thus far. Maybe Mysterio standing tall this week, would have ideally been the way to go about things.
That said, I'm very interested in the eventual payoff to this feud, whenever it happens. It's amazing how Orton has tapped into the dark side of his persona and unleashed his sadistic side.
Why was he ever a babyface, to begin with?
