Title This: WWE Smackdown Reaction 11-11-11

By Josh Isenberg

Wade Barrett vs. Randy Orton

What I Liked:

There needs to be an emphasis on timing, and how important it is. If you are a half second off, the move fails. Randy Orton and Wade Barrett are two of the best at execution, at completing each move with meaning and flow. This match may not be remembered as one of the greats, but it emphasized how much appreciation fans should have for this. Barrett looked great, looked like a legit future champion, and Orton continues to do his thing.

What I Disliked:

The ending was a little weak, with the eye poke and roll up, but I assume they did not want Orton to look really weak. (He never can though, right?) I wish we had a Rhodes run in, or a face off between both teams. They need to have unity, team work, and an emphasis on “taking over” the show.

Grade: A
