WRESTLING RECAP: Breaking down WWE SmackDown from 09/03/15

(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - The Night of Champions (NOC) Pay Per View (PPV), is about 2 weeks away, and outside of the Heavyweight/U.S. Champion, there isn't any truly meaningful matches.  This episode of SmackDown hinted at a favorite heel possibly going after the belt of a popular face (Feed Me More comment).  Outside of that one nugget of information, this was just a regular SmackDown. 

Some things I still need to happen in the WWE Universe:

1. Bring back the Cruiser Weight Division
2. Make all the matches mean something to some sort of belt or rivalry.  
3. Show more of the roster.  You guys recycle the same talent too much.
4. You may wish to consider bringing the Diva's division full circle and have them with Tag Title belts, lightweight belts, etc.
5. The Tag Team Division is starting to look better than the singles division.  Get more people graduated from NXT and get that division showcased more.

Here are the highlights of the show:
