I want to see some mounty security action, horses and all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OVERRATED ON RAW &#8211; MITB GRAPHIC<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What in the sweet baby Jesus is this MITB graphic supposed to be? Is it a riff on \u201cCatch Me if You Can,\u201d a retro video game, maybe a vintage &#8217;90s cartoon I don\u2019t remember? Whatever it is, I don\u2019t like it, because I don\u2019t understand it. And as we all know, anything we don\u2019t understand we\u2019re allowed to dislike. Right? Right?! Christopher Nolan and I are still in a fight about \u201cTenet\u201d by the way.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UNDER-APPRECIATED ON RAW &#8211; KAISER TALKS THE TALK<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Man oh man can Ludwig Kaiser talk. This guy is destined to be a mainstay on the mid-card for years to come, with some pinch hits in the main event scene when needed. I selfishly want to see him do something on screen with his real life girlfriend, Tiffany Stratton. Their shared arrogance would compliment each other on camera, as they, inevitably, compliment each other on camera. Kaiser is surpassing all of my expectations, the exact opposite of how I felt about Giovani Vinci, whose future I was lower on than Kaiser\u2019s percentage of body fat. By the way, Ludwig, please put a shirt on, you\u2019re making the rest of us look like the humans in \u201cWall-E,\u201d which actually doesn\u2019t sound that bad. I\u2019d like a motorized chair with a TV mounted in it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OVERRATED ON RAW &#8211; MISUSE OF FUNDS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think the Wyatt Sicks need a CFO. They\u2019re spending so much money on production value for their entrances, smoke machines, lighting, costumes etc., that all they can afford for their character-building videos is a VHS camcorder. I think an experienced Chief Financial Officer could help them properly distribute their funds to maximize every ounce of their air time. Right now it\u2019s unbalanced and retro out of necessity. Yes I know it\u2019s actually a stylish choice, but the only other logical explanation is that someone on the production team is the 6 in Wyatt Sicks. Jamie Noble? Billy Kidman? D-Von? D-Von! Get the light switch!<\/p>\n<p><strong>UNDER-APPRECIATED ON RAW &#8211; IVY NILE\u2019S DOUBLE MOVES<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2289361251\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Did anyone else catch Ivy Nile\u2019s super inventive tandem punch + kick combo in the ring? It was wildly entertaining to see her take shots at two opponents at once. I hope she leans into this light gimmick in the ring and continues to be inventive with her offense. It\u2019s more fun to watch than Carlito in the Judgment Day clubhouse, which inexplicably has locations in every arena in America.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OVERRATED ON RAW &#8211; KROSS OFF THIS PUSH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dear WWE, can we please Kross off Karrion Kross on the list of wrestlers we need to push? Love, Kevin. It\u2019s ironic that he keeps doing this whole schtick of \u201cthere\u2019s more time\u201d when it\u2019s painfully too late for him to do anything of substance. His upside is lower than Ludwig Kaiser\u2019s body fat, and that\u2019s already at an unbeatable zero. I\u2019m not jealous of Kaiser\u2019s physique. I swear! What I\u2019m saying here, in a long, A.D.D.-fueled way, is that Karrion needs to take a vacation, ride some Harleys, get some more tattoos, and come back refreshed and anew, maybe spell his name better, before I can care about anything he does. But I guess we\u2019ll Kross that bridge if we ever Kome to it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>UNDER-APPRECIATED ON SMACKDOWN &#8211; MONTEZ FORD\u2019S AMAZING LEAP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Montez Ford\u2019s flip into the ring for his match with Pretty Deadly was a thing of absolute beauty. I was still adjusting to the shock of seeing Pretty Deadly was still employed, when what doth my eyes see? The single most perfect flip into the ring perhaps in WWE history. If you go back and watch it, take a look at Ford\u2019s face after he lands if. He is overwhelmed with his own abilities and has a look of \u201cWell, that just happened. You\u2019re welcome.\u201d Seriously, that was higher than Rob Van Dam at a Matt Riddle birthday bash.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OVERRATED ON SMACKDOWN &#8211; OUT OF FOCUS INTRO<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Did anyone else notice during the D.I.Y. and A-Town Down Under in-ring intros that the camera guy was shooting completely out of focus? At first it seemed like a stylish choice, having the announcer in focus and the wrestlers slightly soft, but once introduced, we stayed focused on the announcer, and inexplicably had to watch blurry superstars amp us up. As if that weren\u2019t bad enough, his framing kept cutting off half the heads of D.I.Y. Can someone please give this camera op a sobriety test? I\u2019m going to go ahead and give myself a D.I.Y. pat on the back for being so observant, and because I have low self-esteem and need the self-induced ego boost. Sue me.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll be back next week to discuss Andrade\u2019s inevitable main event push post Money in the Bank! Kidding. There\u2019s a greater chance of Mr. Kennedy making a WWE return than that happening.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-268582698\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<h3><strong>CHECK OUT OUR ANALYSIS ON THE WADE KELLER POST-SHOW AFTER SMACKDOWN LAST NIGHT INCLUDING DIY&#8217;S TITLE WIN<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wade Keller Post-show - WWE Smackdown w\/cohost Nick Barbati\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MkL4c1JFamc?start=1829&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-3936201502\"><div id=\"pwtor-472518787\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Grab some Tim Horton\u2019s, douse it in maple syrup, and pet a moose, because it\u2019s time for the Canadian edition of Over and Unders.
