WWE: Smackdown
April 7, 2016
Houston, TX
Toyota Center

The current WWE champions are as follows:
WWE World Heavyweight Champion: Roman Reigns (4/3/2016)
WWE Intercontinental Champion: The Miz (4/4/2016)
WWE United States Champion: Kalisto (1/24/2016)
WWE Tag Team Champions: The New Day (8/23/2015)
WWE Women’s Champion: Charlotte (4/3/2016)

After what was mostly a super lame, oftentimes confusing, OH MY GOSH WAY TOO LONG, and ultimately meaningless WrestleMania 32, I was ready to take another sabbatical from these guys. It was the worst five hours of my weekend.

BUT THEN ON RAW, AJ STYLES IS NOW THE NUMBER ONE CONTENDER. CESARO IS BACK AND HE HAS AN AWESOME TEAR AWAY SUIT. I’m sure there are other things happening that I want to see play out even though I know I shouldn’t.

WWE is like an ex-girlfriend that you still carry a flame for, but she’s just one big tease. She has no intention of giving you what you want. And just when you’re ready to turn her loose and move on, she pulls you back in with just a glance or a look only so she can stab you in the heart again. AHH.

Your hosts are Mauro Ranallo, Byron Saxton, and Jerry Lawler.
