This is the final SmackDown tonight before Bad Blood in Atlanta tomorrow. No Cody Rhodes. No Roman Reigns. No Randy Orton. No Kevin Owens. So they were without their big guns tonight. And I will say that for a show where all of the heavy hitters were missing and all that star power was lacking here on the show, I thought this actually was one of the more enjoyable Smackdowns in a while. I really do. It was by no means a great show overall. It's not great in the way that Raw has been great on some weeks. But I enjoyed this show more than I have a lot of episodes of SmackDown over the last couple of months. We had the return of AJ Styles until they did an injury angle with him midway into his match tonight with Carmelo Hayes, which made for a very abrupt, very awkward ending to the match. Not sure where they're going with that, but AJ's return was tarnished. At first, I thought maybe, possibly, it was a legitimate injury, but I'm pretty sure it's not. We had our first dumpster match since 2017. You believe it's been that long? There's a reason why we don't get dumpster matches that often. Many of them could be dumpster fires. Tonight was not one of those times. And we had the first ladder match on SmackDown in five years for the tag team championship. I believe that meant the first tag team title ladder match because I'm almost positive we've had at least one ladder match on SmackDown in the last five years. But that's what they said on the show and the tag team titles were on the line. It was the Bloodline defending against DIY and the Street Profits. They wanted you to believe. They wanted you to believe that maybe, just maybe, tonight was the night that the Bloodline gets their comeuppance and they lose the tag team titles. And that's what they had me thinking. I thought that there was a chance at least here. 24 hours before Bad Blood, maybe we'd get a Cody and Roman appearance. Maybe we'd get a run-in from KO and Randy Orton, who have been constantly screwed over by the bloodline week after week after week. And maybe they would give them a little taste of their own medicine. And they would do it and put some heat on the babyfaces, which is why I thought maybe Cody and Roman would get involved, heading into Bad Blood. We're going to cost you guys the tag team titles. And yeah, it might be a cheap win if they have to help the Street Profits or help DIY win the titles. But because of that, I thought that there was a real possibility, not so much DIY because they've had the titles recently, but I really thought there was a chance the Street Profits might finally pull it off tonight. And it would have been the right time for it, if you think about it, because the bloodline could lose, given the stipulation, without having to be pinned. You don't have to worry about the bloodline being pinned, if that's important to you. They could lose without taking the losing fall. And so I thought there was a chance, and then they won. They won because, of course, they did. But I really thought the Profits might get it tonight because they've lost enough. And how many times in the last several weeks have either Angelo Dawkins in a promo or the announcers on commentary, like tonight, made mention of the fact that, oh, it's been years since the Street Profits have been champions. They have not held gold here in WWE since 2021. They're due.
