SmackDown Live: 6/25

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Let's get to it!

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Here comes KB's 2nd favorite, Dolph!!!

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Wash. Rinse. Repeat. Same shit. DZ gets inserted. Gets pinned at the PPV. Joe complains he wasnâ??t beaten. 1v1 next PPV.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

The pig from Bray's firehouse just showed up as bryan and rowan were walking backstage before the break.

[klunderbunker]

Let's get to it!

That has a nice ring to it.

[klunderbunker]

Egads this new concept is forced.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Rowanâ??s only heel because heâ??s pissed they stole his name from him.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

That has a nice ring to it.

I figured you'd like that.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

No wrestling during the commercials? Bullshit. I'm watching the show on a stream on the train, and they are clearly wrestling during the break.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

They really need to build their tag division.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

No wrestling during the commercials? Bullshit. I'm watching the show on a stream on the train, and they are clearly wrestling during the break.

They show it in a smaller screen on USA.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

They show it in a smaller screen on USA.

Ah, ok. Thanks.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

This might explain why youâ??re seeing Wyattâ??s stuff show up and I didnâ??t. If theyâ??re not wrestling, they donâ??t do the screen in screen.

[klunderbunker]

No wrestling during the commercials? Bullshit. I'm watching the show on a stream on the train, and they are clearly wrestling during the break.

To be fair, it was never an official rule.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

This might explain why you’re seeing Wyatt’s stuff show up and I didn’t. If they’re not wrestling, they don’t do the screen in screen.

Not doubting you.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Because they donâ??t copy Raw enough. Is this also an elimination match?

[Fire Marshall Bill]

I do like a good tag team finisher.

[klunderbunker]

Because they don’t copy Raw enough. Is this also an elimination match?

No but it's more people working twice when they cna't get so many people on television. In addition to two 2/3 falls matches.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

I actually like Tucker from Heavy Machinery

I think theyâ??re fine. The tag division needs all the help it can get.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

This shits getting really old.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

^Agreed. But tell that to the writers.

[klunderbunker]

Imagine how weird this show is if you don't know about the no wrestling during breaks thing. SSuddenly WWE is REALLY into 2/3 falls matches and restarts and all that jazz.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Where did that unofficial rule come from? I donâ??t remember.

[klunderbunker]

Where did that unofficial rule come from? I don’t remember.

Vince literally just decided it was a rule a few days ago.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Decent little promo from Bayley.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Good thing is his mind changes so often that itâ??s guaranteed to be temporary.

[klunderbunker]

Good thing is his mind changes so often that it’s guaranteed to be temporary.

Hopefully. It's not a bad concept at all but WWE is having to do it while still wanting long matches. That's not something you can make work every week.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Maybe theyâ??ll randomly institute match lengths again.

[#AbsoluteUnit]

Don Owen would be very disappointed in today's product.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Who was that in pink?

And Spud needs all the TV time he can get. Very entertaining guy.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

About damn time.

[klunderbunker]

Who was that in pink?

And Spud needs all the TV time he can get. Very entertaining guy.

Chasing after Truth? The Singh Brothers.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Chasing after Truth? The Singh Brothers.

Ah.

Even DZs music makes me cringe. Not because itâ??s terrible (Cesaroâ??s gets worse every time and Wade Barrettâ??s was brutal with every change as well), but because itâ??s him.

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

This is Dolph Ziggler's moment.

[Jeff Deliverer of Mail]

The pig from Bray's firehouse just showed up as bryan and rowan were walking backstage before the break.

Only a matter of time before the puppets attack.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

So glad I was wrong.

[Fire Marshall Bill]

Of course, who knows with WWE booking.

Location: Moda Center, Portland, Oregon
Commentators: Corey Graves, Byron Saxton, Tom Phillips

Since the schedule is so packed together these days, this is the fallout for Stomping Grounds, the followup show from last night and one of the setup shows for Extreme Rules all at once. Kofi Kingston retained the WWE Title over Dolph Ziggler on Sunday but now has to deal with Samoa Joe. Other than that, we could be in for some more matches being set up for the next pay per view. Let’s get to it.

Something like that!
