      My Top 5 Smackdown Moments.

     Intro.

In 1990 the WWF ventured further up in the TV landscape, by adding a second show to its weekly arsenal. Smackdown aired on a Thursday night on UPN, and a couple of days later over here on sky sports. I had to watch at my friends house, because my family couldn't afford sky TV, I have great memories of watching this show, so here are some of my favourite moments.

5 The Emergence Of The Tribal.

This. Was glorious. And a fresh reminder, that long lasting storytelling, can take the viewer on a journey, that can last a longtime. I acknowledge you Roman.

4. Edge vs Eddie Guererro.

This. Rivalry  was something special, some connections are made, some forced, and some are made naturally. This. Was the latter, and it was awesome.

3 Big Show And Brock Lesnar Destroying A Ring.

Two men caused a wrestling ring to implode, and it worked, because it was unpredictable. I have no words.

2 Mick Foley Loses It As The Commisioner.

Mick Foley, put. The Undertaker. The Rock. HHH. Stone Cold Steve Austin. Kurt Angle, and. Rikishi, in a Hell In A Cell Match, because he'd had enough of the grief, yeah that's right you tell'em Mick.

1 Stone Cold Steve Austin Blows Up The DX Express Bus.

It was the year 2000. Britney Spears was wrecking the charts. Slipknot were annoying parents, and scaring kids, and DX were hunting down Stone Cold Steve Austin. And when they found him, he blow up their favourite toy, their bus. This was all for the build for Backlash 2000 The Rock vs HHH WWF Championship Match. I loved this. It's one of my favourite WWF segments ever.
