Quoted By:
SmackDown! was god-tier in this era. The action was faster, the stars were rising and coming into their own without being inhibited by the hammer waiting for them right above the glass ceiling, the abrupt departure of Brock didn't get hindered by the ascension of JBL who managed to get ahold of and hold on to the belt with shenanigans every defense. Angle, Edge, Brock, Eddie, Chavo, Rey Mysterio, Cole and Taz, Torrie Wilson, Dawn Marie, Undertaker, the whole fist stage-set up and blue and silver color scheme, Stephanie McMahon, Paul Heyman, Kurt Angle, and Teddy Long as General Managers. Unbelievably kino looking back on it. If the show was live, Trips would have gone out of his way to either ruin it or inject himself there every week.
