My Top 5 Takeaways From Friday Night Smackdown.

        Intro.

Ok, i'm just goint get this out of the way. It's another Top 5 takeaways list, but this one isn't down to illness. This is because yesterday it was my mums birthday, and I refuse to work on family members birthdays.

5 Opening Promotrain.

You guys know me. I hate Promotrains, but this opening one with Cody Rhodes. Randy Orton, and. Drew Mcintyre was awesome. Every storybeat was hit with ease and perfection, all three men basked in the admiration of fans, as this sets up the potential post mania schedule for Cody. From Cody changing the business. Randy's passion, and. Drew acting like a big scottish cry baby, all of this made for a perfect mesh.

4. Oban Elliott.

Welsh UFC Welterweight stand out Oban Elliott was in attendence. I like this guy, and his fighting style, and it was great to see him here.

3. Braun Strowman vs LA Knight United States Championship.

Jacob Fatu got this Match thrown out, and at this point my brain left my body.

2. Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Bret Hart From Wrestlemania 13 is going into the WWE Hall Of Fame.

This is my favourite Match of all time, and it still holds up today. Both men showed their love and passion for the industry in this 20 minute masterpiece. If this Match was a film it would A Clockwork Orange, because the monument of disgust, added to the drama. I don't know how to describe this Match other than it's perfect.

1 Contract Signing.

This segment was awesome. The set up was great, and the dynamic between. Paul Heyman. Roman Reigns. Seth Rollins, and. Cm Punk, would blend into the storybeats with ease, as seths paranoia. Romans self assurance, and punks emotion led to one hell of a final croschendo. Punk being in the main event of Wrestlemania wasn't the favour he wanted from Paul months ago, this is going to lead to roman being on his own, as the act of the ultimate betrayal is starting to loom over the shadow of The Tribal Chief, and he can't even see it coming.
