🤦 WWE SMACKDOWN WAS CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT?! | OCTOBER 16, 2026

What did Eric ever do to deserve THIS?! 🎂😴 This week's WWE SmackDown was only made bearable because my good friend Eric, the former Raw Dog, stopped by to hang out and celebrate his birthday! Unfortunately, WWE apparently decided the best birthday present was two hours of absolute NOTHING!

💥 Seriously, WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THIS SHOW?! One good line doesn't make an entire show! They don't call him Johnny Entrance, and they certainly don't call this episode of SmackDown Entertaining! Instead of building excitement for an upcoming Premium Live Event that might not even happen, WWE seemed completely lost! Endless recaps, matches with bizarre endings, and enough filler to make you wonder if the creative team even bothered showing up!

🤷 It felt like WWE didn't know what to do with this episode, so they just threw together a bunch of highlights and hoped nobody would notice! Well, WE NOTICED!

🔥 WHY DOES WWE HATE ERIC SO MUCH?! The man just wanted to enjoy his birthday, hang out with a friend, and watch some decent wrestling. WAS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?!

👇 WAS THIS ONE OF THE WORST SMACKDOWNS OF THE YEAR?! Did WWE actually accomplish anything, or were they just killing time? And most importantly, WHAT DID ERIC DO TO DESERVE THIS?! Drop your thoughts in the comments!

As we watched SmackDown on Dolly Parton Day, we talk a little about our 9-5 jobs.

SmackDown this week was uninspired.

It’s probably not worth your time.

And if you listened to last week’s show…Brad was right.

Last night’s WWE SmackDown delivered huge moments, shocking interference, and major Money in the Bank implications! The road to WWE Money in the Bank 2026 is heating up, and the blue brand is becoming more unpredictable by the week!

💥 Tiffany Stratton secured her spot in the Women’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match, while Kevin Owens survived a chaotic Triple Threat against Cody Rhodes and Johnny Gargano to punch his ticket into the Men’s match.

😱 But the biggest moment of the night came when Randy Orton interfered and cost Cody the victory! Their rivalry continues to escalate, and things are getting VERY personal.

Meanwhile, Sami Zayn found himself surrounded by potential challengers for the Undisputed WWE Championship, Ricky Saints continued his issues with Rey Fenix, and Blake Monroe finally made her long-awaited SmackDown in-ring debut against Giulia!

With Money in the Bank 2026 getting closer, the stakes are higher than ever. Who will climb the ladder and secure a guaranteed championship opportunity? And what happens next between Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton? 👀

🤦 WWE SMACKDOWN WAS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME?! | OCTOBER 9, 2026

What on earth was THAT?! 😴 This week's WWE SmackDown was supposed to get us hyped for Money in the Bank, but did it actually deliver? From underwhelming segments and forgettable matches to a main event that went absolutely nowhere, this show left A LOT to be desired!

💥 Alexa Bliss and Tatum Paxley captured the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships, Cody Rhodes had some choice words for Randy Orton, and Sami Zayn, CM Punk, and Kevin Owens went face-to-face ahead of Money in the Bank.

But was one title change enough to save an otherwise disappointing night? And what was the point of the Trick Williams vs. Bron Breakker main event ending in chaos instead of giving us a satisfying finish?!

🔥 Let's talk about it! I'm breaking down everything that went wrong, the moments that missed the mark, and why this episode of SmackDown left me seriously frustrated.

We’re talking about this week's SmackDown from Corpus Christi.

Sami is the new champ.

Cody sits down with Vince, I mean Michael Cole.

Brad the Dad is joined by Erik B (the raw Dog) while Greg is away on a “special assignment.”

This week, SmackDown comes to us from Mexico City, where apparently everything is better at elevation—including the wrestling. With four title matches and one major title change, this show shakes up SmackDown and hopefully creates enough chaos to get people coming back for more.

Which championship changed hands? What side tangents do Brad and Erik go on about wrestling and pop culture? And what exactly has Erik been up to all these months?

Find out the answers to these questions and more on SmackDaddies Episode 260!
