2 Things WWE got right on SmackDown Live and 2 blunders they made (20 August 2019)

#2 Got right: Buddy Murphy secured his first victory on SmackDown Live

Buddy Murphy was impressive last week when he made his SmackDown Live in-ring debut against Roman Reigns. Despite losing the bout, Murphy delivered one hell of a match. He went toe-to-toe with the Big Dog and it was certainly the best match of SmackDown Live last week.

The former Cruiserweight Champion was scheduled to face Daniel Bryan this week. Considering the proficiency of the two men in the squared circle, it was anticipated to be a sumptuous match and they didn't disappoint the fans. Without a shadow of a doubt, it was the match of the night but the result was surprising.

Murphy picked up his first victory on the blue brand by defeating the former WWE Champion Daniel Bryan. This week, Murphy certainly made a huge statement with the win and he is expected to be a top star on SmackDown Live. Following the impressive victory, Murphy was attacked by Rowan and Bryan in the backstage area but it is still ambiguous who is the mysterious attacker of Reigns.
