Ups & Downs: WWE SmackDown Review (Feb 24)

[@frankhoward6645]

Simon gets a Golden up every time he does these it's very entertaining and his enthusiasm is tremendous

[@ShieldYoung]

And positivity

[@tRicky531]

@@ShieldYoung put him in the New Day. Power of Positivity!

[@dominikgose2609]

He's the only one I watch this channel for lol

@Dominik Gose awesome I think he should do Commentary on Monday night Raw or Smackdown or a premium live event that would be great

[@verbaljohnwilkesboot]

we love Simon Miller!

[@DanayaAzure]

That was an epic Ups and Downs What Culture y'all need to give Simon a raise

[@phillipmiller8560]

Simon Miller is the reason I continue to watch professional wrestling.

[@darylmbewe1220]

Because he's your brother 😂😂😂

[@jjbantz]

I watch this more than wrestling to be honest

[@kungfukiller4250]

I don't even watch anymore. I just watch Simon.

[@ShieldYoung]

He's the reason I'm subscribed to this channel and Adam is the reason I watch other vids

[@anthonysmall3717]

He’s the reason I don’t have to🙄

[@CrossWarrior1999]

I’m really loving LA Knight. I think he’s really got star potential.

[@sebastianuchtdorf]

Yeah!

[@4eyedike]

Agreed, he’s a star and needs an opponent equally gifted on the mic YEAH!

[@KarlWPickup]

His logo looks like Lord Zedd, and he shouldn't be losing, but YEAH! Loved him since he was in TNA

[@BossofBosses111]

He SHOULD NOT be losing

[@beardown2489]

Absolutely. He’s got charisma to spare

[@flippineck2825]

Triple H's WWE gradually pulling the trigger on all the long term stories is wild. Sami/Roman Jey/Roman Cody's rise Charlotte/Rhea Dom/Rey Wyatt/whoever Even Lita/Becky is a year long throwback

[@Omosisthefuture]

Everyone in the bloodline storyline is killing it. It’s just so entertaining.

[@King-Revel22]

I for sure feel like if we dont get Santos +Rey vs Dom and Priest, then that segment is going to eventually build to a JD s LDF fued/match once JD moves to Smackdown, which I think makes sense if Rhea is gonna be the SD champ it feels

[@sebastianuchtdorf]

Pls book this hhh

[@GeekExtremist]

I've said it in another video, but LDF with Mysterio as their serious elder teacher and Vega as their manager/female wrestler is a really strong group with fun potential. I feel like JD needs to add another member, but not sure who.

[@funkyrumble0455]

Simon You make everyone’s day

[@DIJOUNDAALLSTAR]

Super thumbs up for wreslting as a whole we are reaching a spoiled era of professional wrestling no matter the competition or hate from one company to another! I want to see everyone win and Simon to get a contract even if it’s just to be an announcer 👏🏾👏🏾☝🏾☝🏾🔥

[@ShieldYoung]

My g

[@rayparker4231]

I think this is gonna set up Jey turning on Sami not because he hates him or is mad at him but after seeing what happened he’s gonna be there for his twin no matter what even if he’s tired of Roman. So while Jey isn’t aligned with the Bloodline and Roman he is aligned with Jimmy. This could cause Roman to cause them to lose their titles to teach Jey a lesson and the Bloodline just implodes from here. Sami and KO win the tag titles. Cody beats Roman. And all that’s left is Jey vs Roman part 2 to close the chapter. Roman loses his titles along with his family and he takes some time off to be with his family until he returns.

[@4eyedike]

Let’s also get real- Jey Uso and Sami teaming up and challenging Solo and Jimmy for the belts at Wrestlemania would be pretty bonkers

[@flmotion7017]

sami only getting the useless tag belts would be hella disappointing

[@rayparker4231]

@@flmotion7017 not really it would be great to see him and his best friend who came to the company together win the tag titles and have it come full circle at Wrestlemania while Cody gets to have his own Wrestlemania moment winning the big one after winning the Rumble.

[@karalas]

@@4eyedike that would be a much better finish to his story over yet another run with ko. Golden up from me

[@4eyedike]

@@karalas for sure! I’ll take that over a predictable story any day

[@billcowan5539]

The Sammy ,Jimmy and Jey segment was Awesome 🔥

[@dan7291able]

it was powerful yeah, lot of emotion, its just working, good job guys

[@A_Nameless_Ghoul3301]

I like how Santos Escobar talks about respecting Rey right after he rudely interrupts Rey during his interview.

[@david12740]

Triple H booked women so well in NXT it hasn’t worked yet on the main roster especially smackdown. Tegan and Raquel he can get a lot more out of

[@dan7291able]

Agreed with Raquel, feels like a fumble almost, but there's time, there's just THAT many women superstars in the picture tho, you got the orig 4 horsewoman still around and the emergence of Bianca and Rhea as the future of the biz, it hurts some of the other newcomers, there's only so much spotlight you know

[@robdurfee6861]

[@justinnorris31415]

I just order Simon's shirt on prowrestling tees

[@tyrone5969]

Simon Miller for President!

[@Vinceras]

The thing that REALLY went over my head in the Shayna v Natalya match is why Shayna came out to Ronda's music and graphics......I miss NXT Shayna...her level of badassness and her entrance theme were fantastic....now days....she just plays second fiddle at best. It's really disappointing.

[@dan7291able]

agreed, it's probably some kevin dunn shit

[@adamweger40]

I wouldn’t be mad if they did solo and jimmy vs Sami and jey for the tag titles idk how they would do it but I’d love to see it

[@explosivediarrhea4671]

It won't happen

[@SanelTufekcic]

I love the current WWE storylines

[@pdawg2000isitfortoda]

Simon, thank you a billion times for doing a verbal intro. It was a lil strange hopping directly into it without even a hello, but errything is back to normal 😎

[@droiddadful]

Simon Miller is so pure and must be protected at all cost.

[@DIJOUNDAALLSTAR]

Let’s goooo Simon!!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☝🏾🤫🤫🤫 you know something or see something that only a few can peak 🚀🚀👀

[@onlytri6734]

The Dominic and rey segment I would of compared it to the Los guerrero break up. When eddie refused to hit Chavo, but said he was gonna out wrestle him at the royal rumble. Of course after the match eddie did finally beat up Chavo 🤔

[@jordanbiffle27]

I don't how long it will take to happen, but I hope one day we get a Dominic Mysterio/Sammy Guevara heel tag team. You know they could easily get nuclear heat.

[@ducknado1416]

My personal opinion is that at Wrestlemania it will be: Solo vs Owens, Jimmy vs Jey, and then Cody vs Sami vs Roman

[@OptimusProvost]

FANTASY BOOKING The Usos drop the tag titles to Sami and KO at WrestleMania due to Jey still being conflicted and then we get Jimmy vs Jey at Backlash!

[@LaurenGH88]

Damn… that would actually be interesting

[@MGWPS462]

I think it ends up being Sami and Jey Uso vs Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa for the tag titles....and for those that say "Solo isn't a tag champ" they are a faction and the "Freebirds rule" is always in effect.

[@taylorjames14]

No they had the perfect opportunity to do that and didn't

[@matthewhostetter8974]

Another fun and exciting Smackdown, you can tell because AEWCulture tried to shit all over it with their review. Thankfully we have an unbiased Simon with the truth. Braun/Ricochet/Moss had a great match against Imperium and we tease Drew going for the IC Title. Santos Escobar is teasing a feud with Dom or Judgement Day. Rhea looked great and Con-Dom destroyed Charlotte in a promo. LA Knight and Kofi had a great match. Kross managed to beat Rey with help from Dom. The only real negative was Natayla vs Shayna because Ronda Lousey is still around. Best of all the best storyline in wrestling continues as Sami attacked Jimmy and Jey still seems to be on the fence, about who's side he is on.

[@FreedomofSpeech-l4z]

Simon you get a diamond up from my side for entertaining us 👌👌👍👍

[@neotheone7923]

man its almost like HHH knows what he is doing

[@bossy1496]

Simon Miller is the golden up

[@OwocowyMr]

what if... Sami Zayn and Jey Uso vs Jimmy Uso and Solo Sikoa, and the Uso in the loosing team gives up his titles for the partner of the winner Uso. it sounds weird, i know, but the interactions between Jimmy and Jey during this kinda match could be incredible

[@maruf7956]

yea i thinking the same thing.....let's see what happens

[@thebigredwave]

Goofy wrestling for life. My father and I have become closer with wrestling. He had open heart surgery and didn't heal properly. He's medically disabled and can't lift more than 10 pounds the rest of his life. I moved back home to help him. And we have grown closer. And wrestling is our group activity. I told him about you Simon. He finds u entertaining. Hope to see u on the silver screen or the big screen one day.

[@stephenphelan626]

So, I'm the only person here that noticed a very Vince McMahon like person in the background at the 1hour 46 minute mark when Jimmie Uso was coming out to the ring?

[@Mrdonjuliothewicked]

That bray Wyatt Bobby Lashley storyline kinda makes sense, I mean technically the hurt business would be five altogether, mvp, Bobby, Shelton, Cedric, and Omos, but there is the ongoing rumor of carmelo Hayes would be part of the hurt business, so that’s six, although isn’t one of the Wyatt six supposed to be Alexa? So maybe it’d be some type of 5v5 thing and Alexa and mvp are on the sidelines.

[@NuuKola]

Sami and KO vs The USO’s will feel like an anticlimax if it’s at Mania

[@TurboFlamingo10]

This is the most Vince smackdown, we’ve seen for a while

[@dan7291able]

"feels" like it, but its par of the course when you come back from a PPV thats not one of the big 4, you gotta build up slow again, so it felt "slow" but weve got 40 days to build WrestleMania TWO nights, so this is how it goes

[@xcalibur1986]

If storylines were squashed id agree but although a tad slow, storylines were continued on and new ones started.

[@edwardhernandez1912]

[@RobertJones-sd3ly]

Hey positive Pete... I really appreciated the idea of mask vs hair. 👍

[@tomseville2345]

I think that's why Dom started to grow his Uncle/Papi Eddie's mullet to begin with, as he needed something to lose. However, Rey might want to put his son over, which means it won't be for the mask...

Charlotte is such a bad person. She intentionally wore her highest heels to make Rhea look small. It's a shame that she can't actually be in it to ever help anyone ever.

[@tric5122]

Yep, if she isn't the title holder or in the title scene she leaves. She comes back and kills any push for the person holding the belt

At this point, I wouldn't mind Jey and Sami becoming Tag Team champions instead of Sami and Owens at WrestleMania

[@ChrisFeist76]

I don't know.. I kind of want Sami and Jay to go against Jimmy and Solo at WM for the belts.

[@akagi937]

Well I really wanted to see a WWE title run for Sami, I'm not sure it will ever happen cause how over you have to be, it feels like Daniel Bryan story, I hope he will get his WM moment may be not this year but next, hopefully

[@ShieldYoung]

He's definitely gonna win even for a small run and I would say he's more over than Bryan at this point

[@dan7291able]

He will win the NEXT time they go to Montreal, it just wasnt quite time yet

[@BenPearsonNFFC]

As Whatculture is mainly watched by UK fans, I have a plan. MITB is in the UK, so, anyone that watches Up&Downs and is going to MITB should take a 'Simon Give This an Up' sign. This will max out the counter 💪

If this is a Soap Opera and the main stars every week are the Judgement Day, Imperium, Drew McIntyre & Sheamus, Bray Wyatt, Sami Zayn, and the Bloodline….honestly that’s almost all you need at this point. If you don’t like these people/stories you probably can’t stand WWE at this point…but if you like suspense and casual wrestling you’ve come to the right place!

WWE Rematch Counter: 26

[@mrdude88]

I don’t understand why Sami was surprised Jimmy attacked him. Sami just told Jimmy he’s going to break up his family, very few people won’t attack when they hear that threat. Sami is the bad guy of this storyline. Roman is just trying to protect his family. Jimmy, Jey and Solo were collaterals between Sami and the Wise Man.

[@dan7291able]

Lol , it's all about perspective isnt it, I too root for Roman, and so in that world, SAMI is definitely the bad guy ruining everything lmao

[@xcalibur1986]

Its about perspective. In the beginning, roman forced main event jey into the boodline. Choked out jimmy, bullied both of them constantly etc. Then after showing his loyalty to the bloodline continuelly made sami jump through hoops while bullying jey. Sami only stopped roman from destroying KO handcuffed to ropes, roman went to far.

[@TheRedGamer08]

At 3:30, I was behind the lady with the sign, and I was pointing at it. Was hoping you would notice

[@dubsthevp]

This may seem convoluted, but I think a way to split the titles is with Jey and Sami taking a pair and Jimmy and Solo taking the other. Sami does have a tag team title victory and has claim to the belts. And with Solo being an actual brother and could take claim. I would love to see Sami and Jey vs Jimmy and Solo at Wrestlemania.
