WWE SmackDown - Best and worst- Possible new ally for Roman Reigns, Big issue with Adam Pearce's booking, Similarities with AEW segment?

#2 Worst: Doesn't Bayley's WWE SmackDown segment remind you of Dr. Britt Baker's latest concept on All Elite Wrestling?

This was corny as hell and I loved every minute of it, ahaha! 🌽🌽🌽

So, Bayley launched her brand new talk show on WWE SmackDown this week, and the special guest was Bianca Belair. It was a fine show but it comes close on the heels of Dr. Britt Baker launching her own talk show, with Cody Rhodes, earlier this week. The timing is a bit suspect and honestly, the WWE version comes off as a cheaper knockoff between the two.

The obstacle course challenge next week on WWE SmackDown should be interesting but at the same time it brings back worrying flashbacks from the Sami Zayn vs. Bobby Lashley 'sisters' angle, doesn't it?

We've seen WWE parody concepts that worked for WCW in the past (Gillberg) and WCW do the same with Oklahoma, but neither of those gimmicks exactly got over in the manner that they would have liked. Let's hope that Bayley has better luck with her talk show on WWE SmackDown, and it's not seen as a device to parody AEW segments.
