WWE SmackDown Review:
This was a very strong episode of SmackDown tonight. I feel like WWE is starting to find itself again as it pertains to their weekly Friday night show. We got a pretty strong build towards next weekendâ€s Saturday Nightâ€s Main Event, which on paper looks to be WWEâ€s biggest version of that show in recent years.
Tonightâ€s show delivered with a lot of strong matches and a very fun main event. It would be hard to watch tonightâ€s show as a fan and not be entertained.
Grade: B+
