Did you guys expect the WWE SmackDown title change? It was unexpected, it was sudden, and it came out of the blue. And that's what made it so, so special.

Shinsuke Nakamura now has a chance to work with heels like Otis, Chad Gable, and even Baron Corbin to elevate the prestige of the WWE Intercontinental Championship.

If Sami Zayn makes a return to WWE SmackDown soon, these two men could definitely tear it up too.

#2 Worst: The whole current WWE SmackDown tag team championship picture

I tuned in tonight for the first time in about 15 years. What in the blue hell is this trash?

Somehow the whole WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championship picture is not very interesting at all. It has also made Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode sideshow players, which is a little unfair to two extremely competent performers.

The idea may be to create a new star in Dominik Mysterio but it's coming at the cost of two men who could infuse life into the tag team division. At least the RAW Tag Team Championship picture has the whole Randy Orton and Riddle situation, making things very interesting indeed.
