[4.0] "It's ironic that Smackdown has recently been built around the notion of... if people could fall in love with Grado then why not Ellsworth? And if Ellsworth can be included in a Smackdown main event then certainly 'Superman' Shane O'mac can fight alongside Team Smackdown. Everyone's going to sell for him and it will get a momentary pop but the prospects of watching him pin full-time players is depressing. I imagine when Vince saw Apollo he got a flashback Lashley woodie but since then the team has had to 'Face the Facts' about Apollo's shortcomings as he's not the natural fighter Bobby is. The Women's title presentation was well-built and was given proper context and time; Alexa's a scrappy kitty and the match was well-designed in that it gave AB a body part to focus around. The only issue is that she's so tiny and not superior in any martial arts nor grappling so that it gets a bit undynamic at parts. But the women have decent in-ring chemistry and Becky sold-well, a 2 3/4 - 3 star for me. I'm not into this notion of a four-man booth but neither do I think WWE is. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if Mauro and Tom switched roles w/ Mauro also handlin' it in the 205."

[7.0] "A bit weaker than average, but still a strong build towards Survivor Series and next week's 900th episode of Smackdown. Some decisions (like giving Hawkins a win at all, let alone over Crews, or Corbin getting a kayfabe injury) were a bit baffling, but in the end this felt pretty complete and deliberate, which is a lot more than Raw. Ellsworth is just barely getting old, but he's over and you can tell that at any moment his story is going to be done (although last week would've been a good time to stop). Becky vs Bliss was a very nice match (***1/2) that showed that they have enough chemistry and enough in them to have an even better match in the future. Shane on the SS team is weird, but something about Shane makes me fine with it, even though it's more involved than anything Steph's done (probably because Steph has creative control right now and Shane doesn't). The worst thing about it is that the 5v5 would've been a good time to "make" Corbin. Also, good build to both IC Title matches and announcement for Kallisto vs Kendrick. Solid, entertaining wrestling TV."

[4.0] "One of the worst episodes since the Brand Split. Apart from Becky vs Alexa which was a pretty decent match, I wasn't really feeling this episode for a number of reasons. First off, all of this James Ellsworth needs to end. It was fun for a while but having him play a role at Survivor Series, all too much. The Women match with Natalya vs Naomi and the stuff with Nikki & Carmella was dreadful, it was like a bunch of schoolgirls squabbling. The main story of the night, pulling Corbin out of Survivor Series due to an "injury" work and replacing him with Shane is ridiculous, that goes against what Smackdown is meant to be about. Hopefully this doesn't end up being the case and another swerve happens."

[6.0] "Was an okay episode of Smackdown, nothing great nor terrible. Very strangely, the women's title match was announced at the beginning of the show and regularly during the first half of the show as the main event. The match; however, was at the beginning of the 2nd hour and there was two matches after this one."
