3 Interesting observations from this week's SmackDown Live (March 19, 2019)

From Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair brawling in a wild melee during "The Kevin Owens Show" to Kofi Kingston getting screwed by Vince McMahon yet again, this week's edition of WWE SmackDown Live (19th March 2019) featured a lot of contrasting moments indeed.

What I liked about last night's show was that throughout all the feuds and segments, there was one single narrative taking center stage, and that was all about Kofi Kingston. It doesn't necessarily mean that the show was perfect. But for what it was, this week's SmackDown Live raised more interesting conflicts on the Road To WrestleMania 35.

With that being said, here are a few interesting observations you may have missed during this week's edition of SmackDown Live...

#3: Kevin Owens' comic timing stole the spotlight in a filler segment for the Becky-Charlotte-Ronda saga

Things got out of hand between Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair during 'The Kevin Owens Show'

While the Kofi Kingston saga draws all the attention week after week, it seems as if things are slowing down for Becky Lynch & Charlotte Flair.

The reason why I did not include Ronda Rousey's name in the above statement is that her recent heel turn is quite progressive when you think about it (especially Ronda's antics on RAW this week).

However, this was supposed to be Becky Lynch's story, and while Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch re-enacted the same plot points yet again last night, Kevin Owens took this opportunity to display his effective comic timing.

It was as if Owens was parodying the whole act of the 'talk show host' all along (just take a look at his outfit for starters). You could even hear audible laughs in the background several times during the segment.

This shows that for every filler segment on wrestling shows, there are still wrestlers who keep re-inventing their act to make it feel worthwhile, even if it lasts for one night only...

#2: The Miz made us look at his feud with Shane McMahon from a whole new perspective

The Miz officially turned babyface at the beginning of the episode

We were always inclined to look at The Miz as a person who considered himself a part of WWE royalty, as a cowardly heel.

Now that his perspective towards everything has changed, The Miz highlighted an important difference between himself and Shane McMahon.

The Miz fought hard to become a WWE wrestler while also staying relevant through so many years. Despite his character taking too much pride in The Miz's "A-List" status, the man himself comes from quite a humble background, and now it is Shane McMahon at the other end of the equation.

For the first time in a long time, it is The Miz who is grounded in reality, with the support of the WWE Universe, while Shane McMahon's character has become what every McMahon eventually becomes (in character): an egomaniac.

It will certainly be interesting to see where this feud takes off from here...

#1: Why Kofi Kingston will face Daniel Bryan for the WWE Title at WrestleMania 35 eventually

More conflicts head towards Kofi Kingston's way on the Road To WrestleMania 35

Without any doubt, the Kofi Kingston saga is one of the most (if not the most) interesting storylines heading into WrestleMania 35.

While many fans had issues with Vince McMahon deceiving Kofi Kingston yet again, people who have been watching the show for a long time would know that this is not where the story ends.

Vince McMahon has put each and every obstacle in Kofi's path so far, with the inclusion of the WWE Champion, Daniel Bryan after the Gauntlet Match last night being the latest example.

Kofi Kingston will undoubtedly find his way to the WWE Championship match at WrestleMania 35, but what remains to be seen is how Kofi's character will manage to accomplish such a gargantuan task.

Where does this story lead to next week? What will be the next obstacle in Kofi Kingston's path to WrestleMania 35? How will the Dreadlocked Dynamo respond to Vince McMahon's actions next week?

All of these questions need to be answered sooner than later, as we continue on our journey to the Grandest Stage of them all...
