Tarzan Boy playing: 
They have had 6 months without him to do something great, but creative has been awful. Just a lot of throw away matches, no substance at all
Doesn’t help that cena is just too goofy to be a genuine hated heel
End of Smackdown: this front(ish) row was presumably for locals trialing for WWE – I recognise 5 of them, and at least 3 off them will be at MCW’s Fight To Survive show in two weeks.
Brooksy is #6 just off screen to the right.
In order, Tuckman (clear BOG) + Tarlee (green hair) + Shay Kassidy (pink/purple hair) get the top acting votes from me. Brooksy gets no votes, and Stevie Filip gets way negative votes… way to blow your opportunity, you are there to sell the moment.
Filip and Scott Green get a bit more screen time in the final triumphant stand scene.

The crowd was fantastic last night felt surreal watching Smackdown that’s live from Australia was awesome
Perth take over will be a big success for WWE hopefully it’s not the last we see of Smackdown and Raw in Oz
Next take over weekend should be in Melbourne,then Sydney etc rotate them in all states
Anyone going to the house show on Wednesday night?
Representing Dingley
I only just now learnt that Tuckman is from DUBBO.
Yep and it was booed to oblivion.
It wasn’t broadcast but the Australian anthem also was sung and the whole crowd sang loud and proud.

There was something worth watching (for the LOLz) on a modern WWE pre-show? Wow.
P.S. The Davis Storm poster seen at ringside on Smackdown was because that legend retired this week after 24 years. Massively influenced that state and the country via EPW.
“That is a rugby ball”… ■■■■ off. Barrett goes from locally informed to a wanker.
Decent kendo-stick skills by Roman.
Yay Jonah. LOL at Reigns losing despite having a 3-2 numbers advantage.
Stevie Filip and Ricky South carrying out the absurdly over-sized Crown Jewel case.
(And for the Men’s case, Robbie Thorpe and MR DINGLEY)
Dontcha love Pay-Per-Commercials? And they don’t even have a commercial to run!
Fark off, HHH. It’s not all about you.
Nice intro for AJ, but I am sad that TNA is now a vassal state.
“Running clothesline” ≠ leaping elbow
LOL at the bit in the middle of the match where Cena got seriously lost.
Does anyone else in the WWE universe use the Angel’s Wings (under that name)? Shortly afterwards commentary says both are emulating all-time greats. Since when did AJ have that much sway – because Cena and Daniels have never crossed paths.
The cos-playing went a bit too far to take this match seriously (it was certainly not “one of the greatest matches … ever witnessed in WWE”), but it was fun.
That was a HUGE POP for a heel knocking over the sponsored drink bottles 
the styles v cena match was so much fun

Correction:
Cena actually started in UPW in California and worked there from 1999 until March of 2001 before he signed his WWE developmental deal. He fought/trained/teamed up with Kazarian, Christopher Daniels, Samoa Joe, Amazing Red…
Judging by the trash storylines and sequencing they’re well into this era
Kendrick has been down here for ages.
I’m so out of the loop
MXW is awesome haven’t missed one of there shows in years.
