WWE Thursday Night Smackdown (January 15) Review
This was a really fun episode of SmackDown. Probably the best episode of SmackDown through and through since I’ve been reviewing the show for this site. Bryan has stated in interviews in the past week that he wants to become the face of SmackDown and this reviewer welcomes that for sure!
OVW TV (Episode 792) Review
The main event scene of OVW is pretty boring and unfortunately takes time away from the undercard/mid-card talents that appear to have potentially great futures in this business. It shows in the match ratings as the show goes on. OVW has a ton of potential and some talented wrestlers on their roster, but no one will ever care or pay attention until OVW does some necessary things like updating their roster page, marketing that their TV is free online every single week, and shedding some of the boring wrestlers who are occupying the top of the card.
