SmackDown was host to WWE Draft Night 1 and the show was tremendous. There's hardly anything to complain about from the show.
That said, this is a 'best and worst' article, and the two aspects of this week's show that did not quite hit home will be mentioned here. While there's not enough space to mention every positive from WWE Draft Night 1, rest assured that it was a good show. If SmackDown hits a home run like this every single week, fans would certainly celebrate!
What did you think of this week's episode? Let us know in the comments below. Feel free to disagree with the opinion of the reviewer. Remember that all conversations are healthy and this review is one person's opinion.
#3 WWE Draft Night 1 - Best/Worst: The New Day splits up!
Is The New Day splitting up ONCE AGAIN on WWE Draft Night 1 a good thing or a bad one? It's very hard to tell at this stage of the game, and it will become more obvious with the passage of time.
Also, with Big E on RAW and Drew McIntyre on SmackDown, when do we get to see these two gladiators lock horns? Last week on RAW, a lot of fans were excited by the possibility of this encounter. One has to believe that it's going to remain a dream match for somewhere down the line!
It would have been cool to see an extended Hurt Business vs. New Day feud, but we got what we got, one has to believe. Big E has the chance to do great things as a singles competitor away from the comedy that comes with being a part of the New Day!
This reviewer can't come to a conclusion about whether The New Day splitting up on WWE Draft Night 1 is a good thing or bad. Chime in below with your thoughts.
#2 WWE Draft Night 1 - Best: Everything about the Seth Rollins home invasion
While WWE Draft Night 1 was great in terms of determining which Superstar was headed to which brand, it was also a loaded show from start to finish. Did you catch Edge telling Beth Phoenix to contact Daniel and David during the course of the segment? Well, that was a direct reference to Dash and Dawson, or Cash and Dax, if you will.
#2 WWE Draft Night 1 - Worst: What's up with Kevin Owens' booking?
Remember when Kevin Owens used to be the WWE Universal Champion? His fall from grace has been a sight to behold! The fact that he is suffering losses to Happy Corbin in such an embarrassing manner should be indicative of the fact that his days may be numbered.
We have to commend Corbin for his selflessness! Whether it's Riddick Moss or The Knights of the Lone Wolf, the man has always been willing to give the rub to deserving talent. What do you think of the name Madcap Moss?
#1 WWE Draft Night 1 - Best: Brock Lesnar takes The Bloodline to the cleaners
The highlight of WWE Draft Night 1 has to be Brock Lesnar's promo. In classic sports entertainment fashion, he played major mind games on this week's episode, saying that he is a free agent thanks to Paul Heyman!
The opening segment with Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, and The Usos was absolutely loaded as well. The match at Crown Jewel cannot come any sooner!
#1 WWE Draft Night 1 - Worst: Why are the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions now just exclusive to RAW?
Much of the charm of the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships came from the fact that they weren't brand-specific.
It was cool to see the title get defended across RAW, SmackDown, and NXT, and making them RAW-specific is just...kinda boring!
It would be fair to say that the women's tag team championship picture is probably the worst booked title scene in all of WWE.
The move takes away the one thing that made the title scene semi-interesting.
