You guys are crapping all over Jinder the Continder.
We all know he's being fed to Randy Borton, but it's refreshing to see someone new in the title picture. Knock the f'out of your top merch seller on monday, job on Tuesday, become #1 Contender for the WWE Title and head of your own faction by next week.
Juicy Jinder has been saying his prayers and eating his "vitamins"
Don't hinder Jinder!

There's a rumor going around that Bennett and Maria have either signed, or are going to sign, can't remember which, and will be going to Smackdown, and not put in NXT. Please let this be true. Pretty please let this be true. Smackdown needs a Miracle. Ummm yeah, let me talk about the show. If it involved the US Title, it was awesome. If it didn't? Well, then it sucked. American Alpha losing to the Shining Turds, Jinder's head almost popping completely off of his traps just from cutting a promo, anything having to do with anyone feeling the glow, all bad, very bad. I'm all for using Smackdown as a platform for under valued talent, but Jinder and the Shining Turds have ceilings about 2 inches off the floor. Hell, I'm all for Jinder and the Bollywood Boyz (cool ing name brah) being a stable, I love stables. However, let's not pretend like Jinder wasn't just at the absolute bottom of the card like yesterday and line him up for a serious world title shot. I think what they did last night with that booking immediately makes me reject the idea and not even want to give Jinder a chance. You can shoot guys like Sami and Ziggler to the moon because fans have waited for those moments, but with Jinder, nobody was asking for this and the audience hasn't been given a reason to accept a moon shot with this guy. Good luck to him. Good luck to all of us who have to sit through Orton vs Jinder... Outside of AJ/Owens/Corbin, Raw was a much better show this week. Smackdown is going to go through these growing pains though post shake-up. And to be fair, I thought the 10 video package was awesome. So good looks on that segment with Tye. Smackdown is in a bad spot with Corbin and Owens, the only two even roughly positioned top heels, tied up with the US Title, and Ziggler seemingly tied up with Nakamura. Rusev is still hurt I believe, and that leaves them to use Jinder ing Mahal to face the WWE Champion on PPV. What a crazy time to be alive.

Vince McMahon is clearly sabotaging Smackdown. Ever since the Brand Split, Smackdown has gotten much better reviews, and even beaten RAW in the ratings a few times. Let's look at what has been done to Smackdown.
- Undertaker appears EXCLUSIVELY on RAW, despite calling Smackdown his HOME before Survivor Series. - Randy Orton, the most BORING CHAMPION EVER, is in a feud with JINDER MAHAL. - Shinsuke has been a Smackdown Superstar for 3 weeks....has not wrestled yet. - AJ Styles demoted to the US Title picture after having one of the better WORLD TITLE reigns in recent history. - All big name returns, part timers go straight to RAW (Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, Matt Hardy, Jeff Hardy)
This sabotage because Vince McMahon want the entire company to revolve around RAW and Roman Reigns. He's pissed off that more people enjoy Smackdown and all that "wrestling". Who wants to see wrestling in the wrestling ring. YOU SHOULD WANT TO WATCH ROMAN REIGNS STAND THERE AND SMIRK.

I'm not too bothered about Jinder getting a title match as its 99.99999% sure that he's getting beat. In real sports occasionally a smaller or 'jobber' team makes it to a final or comes close to winning a league so I just see it being like that. He gets a brief spell in the spotlight before he drops back down to his level with the Bollywood Boyz and the growing Indian market gets a star to cheer on.

Let's be totally honest, the biggest sabatoge on Smackdown by Vince has been the tag team division. American Alpha has been horrific character wise, and the only other legitimate team are the Usos. So you throw in New Day but Raw still has The Hardyz, Enzo and Cass, Cesaro/Sheamus, The Club, Rhyno and Slater, Goldust and Truth....
Smackdown desperately needs another tag team, and they need to run an injury angle on Gable and have him reintroduce the "ready, willing, gable" gimmick to annoy JJ and get them some sort of personality. Because right now, they are just smiling babyface tag team #85 As for everything else: -I'm sure they are trying to just hype up Nakamura and hide the fact his English is still developing -AJ will soon be challenging Orton for the title. I can also see Nakamura/Owens for the US at SummerSlam too. -Cena will come back into a feud with either Jinder or Corbin....or both -Smackdown does need one more face woman. I definitely think once Asuka is done with NXT she will be up to dethrone Charlotte.

Dumb choise to let Jinder win the N1C match. Sami Should've won. Orton-Sami can be a great match.

I'm not liking SmackDown Live since the Shakeup occurred. I get their trying to build new stars but I don't think Jinder should be going to the World title when he just started in SD Live.

Perception is everything...Mahal has been portrayed as a mook who can't win tag matches with Rusev, let alone singles matches against mid-careers like Mojo - but yeah, he's number one contender to Randy Orton.
Great.

The only way I'll ever get behind this Jinder Mahal push is if his group is called "3 Man Travel Banned"

I honestly can't believe how badly AJ Styles has been booked recently.

I believe Zayn will turn heel by Backlash and take out Mahal and change it to Zayn vs Orton,

I finally had a chance to watch SmackDown Live, and I enjoyed it. SDL is making better use of their new superstars than Raw is.
