Smackdown Live 1/17 - Shane's Announcement, Steel Cage Match

[@smarkmouth]

It has been recently announced that The Money will be kicking off Smackdown with an announcement of some circumstance.

Alexa Bliss will defend the women's championship against Becky Lynch. Looks to be the last match in this series before Lynch likely moves to a feud with the mysterious La Luchadora. I just wish it wasn't a cage match. I'll never be interested in them until pins and submissions are removed from victory criteria.

I really hope this huge announcement is actually a huge announcement

When did pinfalls and submissions become victory criteria for cage matches anyway? Surely they haven't always been and I've missed it...

 

[@smarkmouth]

Oh yeah, and Jerry Lawler returns tonight with the King's Court! I never thought I'd look forward to Jerry, ever again!

Unsure. Blame Russo?

Here comes the money. Hello everyone.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

I'm here in case people have Canadian questions.

 

[Navi]

I'm here in case people have Canadian questions.

I've got that part covered as well.

Pretty sure the LD is currently 3/4 Canadian.

 

[Navi]

Ohhhhhhhhh the Elimination Chamber.

 

[@smarkmouth]

Sweet! Satisfied, CBK?

 

[Navi]

LOL I think you're right, it's like the main event match last night. Half Canadian, half American.

 

[Dave]

Christ! Better be booking AJ versus Shane at Mania now. How fucking disappointing.

It wasn't

 

[@smarkmouth]

It wasn't

Well come on, it's not like he Dixied it.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

Never give up.

 

[klunderbunker]

Please....not AJ vs. Shane. Styles has earned more than babysitting Shane in a match where Shane will get all the headlines and praise.

 

[@smarkmouth]

You guys really reading that? Just looks like heel champ chatting with face authority figure. Nothing more.

Here's the worst of it. Taker is going up against someone from Raw by all accounts. Shane will be going against AJ (now I'm sure), which can only mean that Cena takes on The Fucking Miz in the SD main event at Mania. What a load of shit!

Google it mate.

I recall seeing somewhere that they were building towards that.

 

[Navi]

The Miz kills it on the mic.

 

[The Life Of Pablo Ren]

Interesting.

 

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

I'm not reading anything important.

 

[@smarkmouth]

I don't buy it.
