When did Friday Night SmackDown become the A show?

At this point, it's obvious that WWE's move to FOX had a lot to do with this, but the company deserves credit for taking the chances that have paid off in dividends. WWE has garnered some very big returns on those risks, which is only helping the company produce better content.

Maybe this is just the push forward WWE needs, or perhaps the company's new focus of the Blue brand is helping, but there is definitely a different feel to WWE in 2019. There's a certain energy that has been building in WWE, a potential that hasn't fully been realized yet, and it is to the benefit of wrestling fans to watch it all play out.

With that stated and Friday Night SmackDown continuing to pump out fantastic content, here are five reasons the Blue brand is WWE's best show right now. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comment section below and be sure to tell us what you think about the show.

While Monday Night RAW still seems to be stuck in its ways in regards to booking, Friday Night SmackDown has repeatedly changed things up and offered some very memorable programming in the process. In fact, that might be one of the biggest contributing factors to SmackDown's success right now. The show is in a state of evolution.

If nothing else, Friday Night SmackDown is still in the process of morphing into its final form, which could be very interesting, especially given the fact that the show is now on FOX. It has turned the Blue brand into WWE's most popular show of the week and fans have taken notice.

Ultimately, WWE is beholden to FOX and the network is going to hold them accountable in creating engaging content. Not only has that already been proven by the addition of Cain Velasquez to the roster, but also by the Blue brand's renewed focus on in-ring wrestling instead of pointless segments.
