[8.0] "This SmackDown was one of the best, practically all the matches were good and with the exception of the women's tag, everything else delivered something satisfactory, the opener was good [***1/2], Sabin vs. Ciampa too [***3/4] and the main event had everything to be something incredible, the match was still very good [****1/4], but the interference from DIY and especially Wyatt Sicks reminded me that WWE is completely incapable of delivering incredible matches on a weekly basis, let alone doing something that doesn't involve overbooking [7.5/10]"

[8.0] "Best WWE show in a long time, pretty good wrestling. I can't remember the last time I enjoyed every match in a WWE show. The opener and the main event are my highlights, but I also enjoyed a lot the Bloodline vs Jimmy and Fénix match, Cobb looked way better than last week and I'm liking the stable for the first time in years. I always wanted to they just leave Jacob alone but this kind of works for me now, I almost prefer getting a Jacob and Cobb tag team run eventually. The talking wasn't so good and I'm not really invested in any of the stories, but thankfully only the Truth promo was longer that it should be. I think that ending a 20 minutes match with a DQ is a really bad choice and I'm not a big fan of the Wyatt's, but I'll take it this time. Filling the 3 hours with more wrestling and not repetitive segments should be the way."

"1) I remember admiring Alexa Bliss' beauty in the past, but ever since I saw her without makeup I barely can stand her presence on my screen. She's one of the biggest frauds in the industry. She's nobody without that shit she paints her face with on a daily basis. Once upon a time I even dared to wonder who's sexier: Alexa Bliss or Liv Morgan. After looking up the pictures of them in real life, I came to a definitive verdict: Alexa can't even hold a candle to Liv. Actually, Morgan doesn't even look that much worse without makeup, whereas Alexa looks just like a cashier in your local supermarket. 2) The Savannah crowd should be ashamed of itself for how they behaved during R-Truth's promo last night. The man cut one of his best promos (and the only serious one) over the last decade, and these stupid people decided it was funny to hijack it with the "What? " chant. Kudos to R-Truth for handling the segment like a professional - he didn't even acknowledge the distraction and kept delivering his lines flawlessly. 3) Wow, I didn't even know it was Bray Wyatt's birthday. Probably if I had, I would have expected the appearance of the Wyatt Sicks on the show, but since I didn't, their comeback really caught me off guard."

[8.0] "A very all-around solid episode of SmackDown. I thought this episode was very much in-ring focused, and the majority of the matches were very well. And I liked the ending of the show where the Wyatt Sicks made their return."

[8.0] "Might be my favorite Smackdown in a long time, even if the holder of best Smackdown match isn't actually on this show. It was pretty consistently good all throughout, I can't really complain. Wyatt Sicks coming back is something I've been asking for ever since Bo was reported no longer injured, but I wasn't fully sure how they would end up doing it. What they did today was perfect, the best return I could have ever imagined for them closing out the show for Bray Wyatt's birthday blowing out a candle. I already loved the show beforehand, especially the main event, and that closer did things I never expected for my heart. Wonderful work Also R-Truth dropped an absolutely amazing promo that has me genuinely looking forward to his match vs Cena tomorrow. If Cena Wins, We Riot."

[8.0] "The smackdown episodes the last couple weeks have been really growing on me. They've started kind of reserving the storyline fueled episodes for raw and letting smackdown be the program for good matches. Motn for me was undoubtedly fraxiom vs street profits, i liked the wyatt sicks interference it makes room for another spot in this smackdown tag team division that's already stacked to the moon, im also glad that they're letting alexa do a singles run instead of joining the group. Candice now being a part of the diy heel stuff is also pretty awesome. Mitb qualifiying matches were good, so was the tag match. Really solid episode"

[6.0] "Good show overall. Good opener. Good middle part of the show. Great men's Money In The Bank qualifier. Solid main event spoiled by outside interference."

"8/10 show -- SmackDown with two quality shows in a row after a weak streak. Huge improvement in the women's division with multiple simultaneous storylines (Charlotte/Alexa, Naomi/Jade, Zelina/Chelsea) and featuring all *SIXTEEN* women on the Smackdown roster in some way tonight. Pretty good debut for Giulia, who was def the right call to put in MITB. And happy to see Zelina defend at SNME - event needed a womens match and the US women's belt needs a little spotlight. I've been confused by a lot of the criticism of the SmackDown tag team division over the last several months because at least they've been attempting something story-wise and in-ring they have been delivering (as opposed to Raw.....tag team division flatlining over there), so I'm glad to see people giving the tag team division some love recently. Glad the Wyatts got a big pop and interested to see where they go from here. Better use of JC Mateo tonight than last week (wrestling in jeans for his first match? ) and while Temu Bloodline still isn't the most captivating story, it does seem to be trending up instead of down and I think ultimately Solo vs Jacob Fatu will payoff nicely. With Cena's limited schedule and Cody still out the men's main event scene feels pretty hollow which is probably the show's biggest weakness right now but fortunately the other divisions have so far been able to carry."

[7.0] "Good show overall. Wresting was solid across the board and stories were advanced all over the place. The set-up for the women's MITB qualifier next week was very good. Naomi continues to eat up this heel character. SmackDown has a ton of cool stuff going on and I hope the three hour runtime sticks."

[9.0] "One of the best Smackdowns of this year. The opening promo is nice to hype up the women's MITB. Glad to see Alexa's mic skills back. The first match is very good, Zelina Vega showed some good things, Giulia continues to progress in the main roster while Charlotte remains as cool as ever. I am (like many people) very happy with Giulia's victory which will be able to show people like me who don't follow NXT what she is capable of. The DIY video is very good. The match between Sabin and Ciampa is nice. We don't get bored and it's good to see tag wrestlers have solo matches. Surprised by the return of Candice which allows Ciampa to win. The women's tag team was just a break in this show. The first backstage segment Fatu/Sikoa is really good. Once again we mention a Fatu who doesn't trust JC Mateo and who wants to win fairly. I liked their tag team match against Jey and Fénix. It tells the story of the bad relationship between JC and Fatu. The Fatu/Fénix duel was a real treat for me. Seeing JC Mateo pin Jimmy is, once again, very good for disturbing Jacob Fatu. The segment where it is announced that Fatu will be in the MITB qualifying match is also very good because we see a Sikoa who makes us believe that he is happy when we know very well that it annoys him to see his Samoan Werewolf potentially being in his match. A very well-written rivalry so far. The R truth promo, meh. Once again, using comical tricks that make no sense in what is supposed to be the greatest heel run in history is not logical. Too bad because we see that R truth is doing well on the mic but I can't believe in an R truth who saves wrestling. The McIntyre/Priest fight is good. Looking forward to the match at SNME. The Black/Knight/Nakamura match is also very good. Very good wrestling again and it makes sense to see LA Knight in the MITB. The way LA Knight wins is very cool because we keep Aleister Black strong. Belair's video clearly teases her heel turn. The ME is excellent. What can I say? It's always the same. Profits and Fraxiom never cease to entertain us and give us great matches. The ending is INSANE. It's a "Holy Shit" moment. The Wyatt6 return is just crazy. They took on all the teams. Their return was well done and the birthday cake for Bray is moving. Now we have to do something big with Wyatt6 to avoid being disappointed again. Now SNME."

"Best smackdown show since post mania for me. For me it's always been better when Raw has focused of stories and Smackdown has been about the wrestling, This was a wrestling heavy show and I felt it was far more enjoyable. Some really good in ring action that got the crowd invested for each match by the end. Happy to see the Wyatt 6 back, just hope they can sink it into some interesting stories. Fraxiom's new theme is horrible though."

"Naah, for me personally this Wyatt thing doesn't work out. We're in 2025, the wrestlers behind the mask cannot carry Bray's aura and thinking about a particular character. They're being pushed into these roles. It's just awful from a perspective on entire Tag Team roster of SD. Rest of the show was good. Giulia VS Flair VS Vega was Match of the night for me, women got the show going."
