Description

With SmackDown steady and Raw finding its footing over the last month, WWE looked to be on a creative upswing with new rosters set to take effect. Instead, its booking took a nosedive this week with both shows failing to impress. Host Adam Silverstein and co-host Chris Vannini discuss what went wrong for WWE as it builds to Crown Jewel [2:30], beginning The Main Event looking at the bright spot that was the Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman storyline [13:45]. The guys continue with WWE's sloppy use of Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks, Bianca Belair and Charlotte Flair before breaking down the quarterfinals of the King of the Ring and Queen's Crown tournaments, including atrocious and embarrassing booking for the women's division [56:40]. Next is The Good, The Bad and The Ugly [1:05:30] where "The Silver King" and "Vintage" talk "can they co-exist" booking of Big E and Drew McIntyre, Seth Rollins vs. Edge inside Hell in a Cell, Goldberg vs. Bobby Lashley and much more. Plus, a look at a special SmackDown being extended by 30 minutes next week and going head-to-head with AEW Rampage [1:32:30]. Follow Getting Over on Twitter @GettingOverCast.
