WWE SmackDown: 4 biggest questions from this week’s show
SmackDown has been dishing out good to great shows in the past few weeks and this week, they tried to keep the bar high and not disappoint their fans. However, a number of average bookings led to the show faltering from start to end with only the match between Ali and Buddy Murphy shining through.
Apart from that, Randy Orton managed to deliver two major statements to Kofi Kingston which will continue to play on his mind before his match with The Viper at Clash of Champions.
On the other hand, the show had some questionable segments and bookings which made it lag behind the efforts from the previous weeks. In this article, we will look at the 4 biggest questions we have from SmackDown Live this week.
#4 Can WWE do something new for the 24/7 Championship?
Since its inception, the 24/7 Championship has provided a lot of comic relief to the WWE Universe. This has been done more through social media than in-ring action, and the chance of a 24/7 Championship changing hands keeps rising with each passing minute.
In just over 3 months, we have seen the title change hands at least 40 times, with R-Truth claiming it 13 times while Drake Maverick is currently in his fifth reign as champion.
While things are still interesting, WWE should do something new for the championship before it becomes stale and fans lose interest. Truth and Maverick have remained at the center of the championship drama, and they can add more well known but underutilized wrestlers such as EC3, Eric Young, and Shelton Benjamin to the drama and allow them to have proper matches for the championship too at times.
Adding it to the card of the Clash of Champions pay-per-view could also help increase its value where the champion can give an open challenge to anyone to battle in a proper match and end up with a battle royal instead.
