The Snug Wrestling crew is back with a full WWE Friday Night SmackDown review, breaking down one of the biggest episodes on the road to WWE Night of Champions, King of the Ring, Queen of the Ring, and SummerSlam.
This week’s SmackDown delivered major storyline movement as Gunther revealed his condition for a WWE Championship rematch against Cody Rhodes, creating a huge twist in the WWE title picture. We discuss what Gunther’s decision means for Cody Rhodes, how Sami Zayn could impact the championship match, and whether WWE is setting up a major betrayal, controversy, or shocking finish.
We also react to the explosive King of the Ring opening round Fatal 4-Way featuring LA Knight vs. Jey Uso vs. Finn Balor vs. Royce Keys. Did Jey Uso deserve the win? Was LA Knight robbed? Is Finn Balor being overlooked again? And what does this mean for the future of The Bloodline, Cody Rhodes, and the WWE Championship scene?
The crew also breaks down the Queen of the Ring opening round Fatal 4-Way with Charlotte Flair vs. Jade Cargill vs. Lyra Valkyria vs. Women’s Intercontinental Champion Sol Ruca. We talk about Charlotte advancing, Jade Cargill’s direction, Lyra Valkyria’s role on SmackDown, and whether Sol Ruca is being positioned as a future breakout star in WWE’s women’s division.
Plus, we cover the tag team match featuring Brie Bella & Paige vs. Fallon Henley & Lainey Reid, and discuss what this match means for WWE’s women’s tag division, nostalgia returns, NXT call-ups, and the future of women’s wrestling on SmackDown.
