Thoughts on the August 30th, Edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown:


Thoughts: Very solid episode of Friday Night SmackDown, the crowd was hot all the matches were solid, and we got a great segment between Cody Rhodes, and Kevin Owens as KO pointed out Cody Rhodes knee has been a issue. But I feel like soon Kevin Owens will eventually turn heel. Other than that I feel like SmackDown is slowly becoming watchable as they been producing pretty solid shows with solid matches on the card as their switching to USA Network on September 13th they need to make these shows feel important like they did last year.


The August 30th, Edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown Match Ratings:


The Opening Match: LA Knight (c) vs. Ludwig Kaiser for the WWE United States Championship - Match Rating: ***.25 - Kinda surprised it was Ludwig Kaiser, I thought it was gonna be Shinsuke Nakamura or Giovanni Vinci, but the hometown kid got his opportunity to fight for the United States Championship and came up short but the match itself was pretty decent.


2nd Match: Los Garza (Angel & Berto) (with Elektra Lopez & Santos Escobar) defeats Apollo Crews & Baron Corbin - Match Rating: **.50 - Los Garza finally get a victory as they defeat Apollo Crews, and Baron Corbin. A much needed victory they need to allow them stack wins and be taken more serious so they can be threats in the stacked SmackDown Tag Team Division.


3rd Match: Carmelo Hayes vs. Andrade - Match Rating: ***.50 - The fourth match in the long feud that has been taking place on SmackDown, Carmelo Hayes comes back from a 2-0 deficit and now ties it at 2-2, I assume this will be a best of seven, but I hope it ends at a PLE. Andrade, and Carmelo Hayes in every match have been giving it their all, and the fans love it, and the people watching love it. I hope this also ends in the winner of this feud faces LA Knight for the WWE United States Championship.


The Main Event Match: Nia Jax (c) vs. Michin in a Street Fight for the WWE Women's Championship - Match Rating: - ***.75 - Nia Jax has been great since she returned. Probably the best match of the night, and Michin is great whenever it comes to Street Fight Matches. Bayley made her return to fight off Tiffany Stratton. And Nia Jax retains the belt.


The August 30th, Edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown Match of the Night: Nia Jax (c) vs. Michin in a Street Fight for the WWE Women's Championship - Match Rating: - ***.75
