It's Christmas Eve and I'm sitting around in my tiny hometown doing **** all as usual, so pre-Christmas SmackDown thoughts coming up.

Spoiler:

- There's no way Big Show is that over. Got to be canned heat.

- I loved Josh Matthews' total douche question on Raw. Might as well have asked, "So, Big Show, you ****ing suck, how do you feel about that?"

- Yes. Yes, Big Show should quit the business and work as Santa Claus. Mark Henry, I love you.

- Does anyone else wish WWE hadn't already had two guys use the "BEST IN THE WORLD" catchphrase, just so Dragon could use it in that promo? Very solid promo.

- Millions of people behind the camera? So that's why there are so many tarped off areas at WWE shows, they're all sitting behind the hard camera.

- D-Bryan trolling Henry was hilarious. Needs to do that more.

- What the **** is a mood ring?

- Great insight from Cole during Ryder/Rhodes - "All revolutions end." Yes, they do, Cole. Being stuck in a state of perpetual revolution would be awkward.

- Santino has matters of official business. Aksana is pretty over just by being a generic ****ing hot Eastern European chick. LOL Santino, "sunnamagun Teddydore...woooo-ooop!" *raises cobra, Vicki walks in* "Ooooooo-woooop" *lowers cobra*. PG FTW.

- I'm actually getting really ****ing bored of Vicki Guerrero right now. I kinda hope she gets written off TV in 2012, unless they start doing something new with her besides insult her or have her stand there while Ziggler cuts awesome promos. Swagger doesn't need a mouthpiece either, put her with someone else or drop her.

- Otunga needs new music. His current one, called "It's All About The Power" I believe, and purple TitanTron just doesn't fit his gimmick at all. He's actually getting over pretty well and doing a good job in his current gimmick, so at least give him some sort of dumbass over-the-top lawyer music and go with it 100%.

- So funny seeing two huge giants in the ring with Otunga in the middle in his bow tie.

- Miz is here. Can never have too much Miz. Miz vs Bryan at WM would be ****ing awesome, now that I've had that idea I def want them to go with it. Just move Miz to SmackDown and make him the face of the brand.

- Was expecting Orton when Miz was ranting about SD having no face.

- Wish people would stop with the "can't believe Bryan is WHC" stuff. Barrett kinda buried him a little there. Also, WTF at "As we say in England, have a Happy Christmas". People don't wish people Happy Christmas outside England?

- BACKSTAGE BRAWL!

- CAR-KO!

- Me gusta Rosa Mendes. Me ****ing gusta.

- Ryder/Punk/Bryan package to a song called 'Dark Horses'. Awesome. There's mileage in partnering IWC darlings together it seems. Punk/Bryan/Rollins/Hero/Castagnoli vs HHH/Cena/Orton/Taker/Kane at WM30 anyone?

- Turns out the new words to Ziggler's theme are 'Here to show the world'. Still prefer 'I AM PERFECTIOOOOON...PERFECTIOOOOOOON'.

- Sick surfboard, not often you see that in WWE. Crowd dead though, ffs.

- Holonaminitplayatagteammatchhollaholla!

- Nice little tag match I guess. Good episode of SD.



Merry Christmas, WBM!

re: mood ring - it was one of the fads we had in the 70s along with the pet rock, bell bottoms, and double digit inflation. you didn't miss much.

re: perpetual revolution - tell it to Trotsky, brother

re: vickie - never ever bored with her, I love her so much. She brings the entire product up a notch. She is better ringside than backstage though.

The mood ring made a short reappeance in the 90s along with slap bracelets in Britain iirc. It basically changed colour under body heat.

This actually happened? I just saw this in dumb cartoons and old comedy movies and figured it was a joke. Mind = blown.

i think this will lead to a very good series of matches within the next two years and maybe a feud with some bad blood.

Hell yeah, I can't wait for a Punk/Bryan feud. It just kinda sucked that his gimmick pre-WWE was "The best professional wrestler in the world" and in WWE he can't use it because there are two other guys who say the same thing.

Also, I wish WWE would just call him the American Dragon and be done with it. He has no nickname, which doesn't exactly help the "no charisma" thing.

I wish Teddy didn't interrupt the amazing Ziggler Bryan match. That Super Back Body Drop was sick, and Ziggler is GOAT seller, too.

Lengthy Ziggler/Bryan feud upcoming, please. Best of 7 series, preferably.

But really, I love Smackdown.

I can't be the only one who wants Raw to start off with Punk debuting a new belt in his home town.

I would mark out pretty hardcore for a new belt. The replica spinner belts selling well or whatever is a bull**** excuse. Kids would buy the new one too!

Holy crap. With all of this Christmas **** going on, I completely forgot about wrasslin' tonight.

Debuting old belt, yay. Debuting new belt, likely boooooo.

They have a terrible record on belt designs right now. The entirely terrible and devalued unified copper tag belts, the silver ECW belt and the pink and **** divas belt are the last three designs they have come up with. I assume before that there was the spinner variations, so basically since the spinner design all the other designs that have followed have actually gotten progressively worse in the minds of most and certainly they have gotten worse than the three belts they basically replaced (divas was ran in parallel to the womens belt for a while of course).

Being home for the holidays makes it rather inconvenient to get a Raw viewing in. My parents have always rolled their eyes at my love of wrestling, so commandeering the TV for two hours in the middle of the evening isn't in the cards. I doubt I'll see much of the show, if any of it, live. Will roll along later with thoughts if I'm not around for the show.

Yup, tried to pick up last minute tickets to the show yesterday (like I did for MITB) and couldn't. No luck on wwe.com or CL.
