Promo quality
The biggest hype for this week's SmackDown was the return of both AJ Styles and Becky Lynch - and both of them cut amazing promos. While Becky targetted Charlotte trying to impersonate her, Styles made proper shouts at Daniel Bryan for not being around during live events and SmackDown even after being the WWE Champion.
Samoa Joe also cut a brilliant promo against Jeff Hardy during the latter's 20-year anniversary celebration. Even someone like Mandy Rose looked brilliant while she questioned Paige's bias towards the latter's PCB teammates. The SmackDown roster was on fire this week on the mic.
On the other hand, RAW had a forgettable outing on the mic. Nia Jax and Ronda Rousey exchanged an underwhelming conversation. However, Baron Corbin came out as a proper heat magnet heel with his promos targeting Braun Strowman and rest of the locker room. However, this was not enough to surpass the straight fire promos from Lynch, Styles, Joe, and Hardy. Hence SmackDown easily earns a point here.
