Did it sneak up on you? You’re surely not the only one, but WWE Super Show-Down occurs today. It’s about two hours away as of the time of this posting. The New Day, represented by Big E and Kofi Kingston, will be defending their WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships against the Miz and John Morrison here tonight. I’m Jordan Huie of the Overtimer and you can expect to see the results of each and every match on the show before long, plus a full preview of everything you can expect to see on the card.
I’m pretty naturally sour on these Saudi shows, and Lord knows the last one was something of a disaster, though it turned out okay in the end. Amazingly, they’re going ahead and doing this the exact same way, with the show taking place the day before SmackDown. They’re also flying via Atlas Air again ’cause why not? Only cowards learn lessons… ah well. Here’s hoping we don’t get a repeat of that fiasco. Now, that aside, let’s get onto the previews.
WWE SmackDown Tag Team Championships: The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Big E) (c) vs. John Morrison & The Miz
So yeah, Bayley/Naomi isn’t the only case of a match that really looked like it would happen at WrestleMania occurring here today instead. Although in all honesty, it wouldn’t be the least bit strange to me if they just went ahead and did a rematch of this at Mania anyway. I can’t say I know a better plan. I mean, it’s just so obvious that this should be the match for these titles there, assuming these titles get any match at all. Although I suppose it’s possible Miz and Morrison can win here and feud with the Usos over them instead… eh, who am I kidding, it’ll be a multi-team match like usual.
Anyway. John Morrison’s return to WWE has been, well it hasn’t been what it could’ve been. But it atleast injected some new life in the Miz’s career at a time where he could’ve used it and gave a bit of fresh air to the tag division as a whole. Really, SmackDown’s tag division in general could easily be a much bigger deal than it is right now. Anyway, I think the safest bet is to pick the New Day to retain but Miz & Morrison could definitely win here, and might take the titles from them before Mania regardless of what happens today.
