You've got to admit one thing. Cesaro is a freakishly strong wrestler, and has the ability to do crazy stuff in the ring. What he did in the match against Jey Uso and Xavier Woods was just crazy, and the trio put in an effective and strong match.

Leaving all that aside, even if we compare the storylines from what goes on at Raw to SmackDown, we see a marked difference. AOP has not beaten the team of Bobby Roode and Chad Gable on all but one occasion, and we aren't sure whether the team would even get a shot at the title at TLC.

On the other hand, you have 3 of the more prominent teams on SmackDown building up to their match with good equally fought matches, and there is a definite storyline progressing.
