Who's Rising, Who's Falling after last night's Smackdown?
One of the most jam-packed full of wrestling shows I've ever seen the WWE put on. Good stuff
Rising
1. Antonio Cesaro - The crowd IMO seems more responsive to him than to any of the other newer guys the WWE is trying to push. I definitely see him dominating for a while, and IMO a feud with Santino for the US belt could get him some gold sooner than later (the fact they're on different shows is irrelevant IMO)
2. Titus O'Neill/Darren Young - Big win for them last night and a great promo afterwards. Crowd was responsive as well it seemed.
3. AJ Lee - <3
Also: Brodus and Ryback keep squashing
Falling
1. Big Show - He'll be on Johnny/Eve's shitlist for a while I think and will keep getting screwed for the time being. Plus he's horrific in every aspect of professional wrestling
2. Damien Sandow - Here's the thing, the crowd is going to HATE this guy the longer they go with these promos and if he keeps rejecting matches, which is a good thing in the long run, but the problem is if he keeps playing the chickenshit heel, he might not get many matches in. I hope I'm wrong on that though.
3. Zack Ryder - I actually thought them teaming him with Santino could end up with him winning the tags at some point, but losing to O'Neill and Young makes me reconsider that. What else does he have going on!?!? I thought Kane/Ryder was a lock for the next PPV, but nothing...
Also, LOL Alex Riley
