(www.PlaytimeCares.com) - This Payback Pay Per View (PPV) is a little over 2 weeks away.  Time to get some rivalries cemented, and get these story lines fine tuned.  Overall, this was a good SmackDown with the showcasing of NXT and Canadian talent!

NOTE: All my images are directly from WWE.com


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:

Air Date: Thursday, April 14, 2016
