Opening Segment – HIT: This is a marginal Hit. The mic work from Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch was good. It was fun to see them as “a real life couple” (I mean, that was […]
Opening Segment – MISS: This felt too repetitive. It is a problem with having a PPV full of rematches from a Network Special less than two weeks before. How many times are we going to […]
Opening segment with Undisputed Era – HIT: I’ll give this a Hit here because it was a well-executed segment. Everyone was over with the crowd. However, I hate when shows start with a segment that […]
Opening Segment – MISS: The opening segment set up the idea that Seth Rollins was going to take out anyone who might get picked by Baron Corbin to be the special guest referee in their […]
Candice LeRae & Io Shirai vs. Marina Shafir & Jassamyn Duke – HIT: This was a decent opening tag match here. LeRae looked good and I’m glad she is actually being featured in matches. Shirai […]
Keith Lee vs. Kona Reeves – HIT: This was a really enjoyable match. Both competitors showed respect to one another at the start of the match. Kona Reeves faked a leg injury and, as Lee […]
Mia Yim vs. Bianca Belair – HIT: Belair and Yim have had quite the little rivalry in recent weeks. It’s clear they still value Bianca Belair , but it’s hard to find her credible. That […]
Opening Segment – HIT: Smackdown got off to a good start with the opening promo from Kevin Owens. It was interesting to hear him say that he wasn’t the one who attacked Big E last […]
Brock Party – MISS: Last week, I wrote that Brock Lesnar was amusing when he used the Money in the Bank briefcase as a boombox as he bopped his head to his music. I thought […]
Undisputed Era opening segment – HIT: This is a hit here. Adam Cole reiterated that the Undisputed Era is as strong as ever and they will all hold gold. Gargano came out to confront Cole, […]
Opening Scene – MISS: If Smackdown was a non-scripted show, the director would NEVER start the show with a shot of Shane McMahon on the phone, just hoping something interesting would happen. What if Elias […]
Opening Segment – HIT: This opening segment was too long. But, it was good. The best part was Brock Lesnar celebrating with the Money in the Bank briefcase. It was great how he was holding […]
The Viking Raiders & The Street Profits opening segment – MISS: The Street Profits have looked good in recent weeks. With that said, they need a few more wins over some top teams to build […]
Roman Reigns is one of the most dramatic, divisive, and discussed WWE performers in history. The company makes desperate play after desperate play to make him your favourite graps guy – with limited success. How […]
Opening Segment – MISS: This was a bit of a mess. Roman Reigns has made liberal use of the Wildcard Rule to appear on Raw the last two weeks, but Miz can’t be on Smackdown […]
Miz TV – HIT: This is a minor Hit for the show opening talk show. The Hit is for The Miz’s performance once he was pushed to be the “new Miz” by Roman Reigns. The […]
Biance Belair vs. Mia Yim – HIT: These are two of the better women’s wrestlers under the WWE umbrella. Bianca Belair showed confidence throughout, using dirty tactics at the end to secure the win. This win […]
Wildcard Rule – MISS: It would have been nice if WWE had clarified exactly how the Wildcard Rule works, but they didn’t. There are times when the announcers talk about a wrestler taking advantage of […]
Wildcard Rule – MISS: The idea of blurring the lines between the Raw and Smackdown rosters a few weeks after the Superstar Shakeup with this new Wildcard rule is stupid. Oh boy we get to […]
Editor’s Note: The following is James Myers debut as the writer of NXT Hits & Misses. If you are interested in contributing to PWTorch.com and joining our great team of volunteers who help round out our coverage, […]
Opening Segment – MISS: This felt like the type of interview WWE should have done with Kofi Kingston on the first Smackdown after WrestleMania, not three weeks later. It was odd to see Michael Cole […]
Opening Segment – MISS: This was dull. Alexa Bliss didn’t have good material to work with in introducing the four Raw men who will be in the Money in the Bank ladder match. I’m not […]
Opening Segment – MISS: Roman Reigns is supposed to be one of the alpha wrestlers in WWE. It is fine to start him out on Smackdown in a feud against a lower card wrestler like […]
