-- WWE Smackdown Reax 5/11

John D., receptionist: Best Bit: Damien Sandow. Worst Bit: Antonio Cesaro's theme music. Allow me to explain. I see Sandow being a valuable member of the roster. He's got mic skills, a gimmick that is different from other gimmicks seen in the past, and, most importantly, experience is on his side... Antonio Cesaro's music is awful for a pro wrestler. It reminds me of the song Chelsea Dagger. It just doesn't go with him. I'm not questioning the man's abilities to wrestle, as he's wrestled all over the world and had five-star matches in his career, but this theme music sucks... I liked the RKO that Randy Orton delivered to Ricardo Rodriquez, who took the bump like a pro... The Fatal Four-Way title match at Over the Limit has the potential to be great, but a minor complaint I have is that it's been thrown together just to add more drama to the feud between Sheamus and Alberto Del Rio.

Steve in Pompano Beach, Fla. (5.5): Best: Sheamus vs. Jericho tied with the Bryan-A.J. segment. Worst: Clay vs. Hunico tied with the commentary. I found myself continuing to be impressed by the way WWE is building up to the Fatal Four-Way match at Over the Limit. I think it definitely helps the match's storyline to have every participant showing dislike for one another going into it, and it's a change from the typical "good guys team against the bad guys" outlook that fans have been taught to expect... The interaction between A.J. and D-Bryan was great. Bryan as the one who makes "poor widdle A.J." go crazy makes him an even more contemptible heel. On the flipside of the coin, though, there's Goldbe--...um, I mean, Ryback, the Funka-bore-us, and Yawntonio Cesaro. All three gave me an urge to change the channel. And, of course, the three mooks calling all the action. The trio gave me an urge to hit the mute button. #WemissyouJR
