Best and worst of SmackDown Live: 12th December, 2017

#3 Best: Welcome win

It was heartening to see Rusev and English pick up a big win

Remember when Rusev seemed near indestructible? It was so long in the past, that we won't blame you if you honestly, do not! However, he has reinvented himself as a comedy character quite effectively. It was heartening to see him pick up a big win.

The same holds true for Aiden English, who has also reinvented himself following the dissolution of The Vaudevillains. The two men make an entertaining duo, and pinning the tag team champions can help them ascend the ladder.

We don't know what Rusev Day means yet, but we're confident that it must be a glorious day. We'd really like to see them hold the tag team championships, someday!
