This week Brad breaks down SmackDown in true COLE’s Notes fashion — covering everything that happened in under 10 minutes… mostly because, well… not much happened.

This felt like a bit of a speed bump on the road to WrestleMania. Not a bad show — just not a lot of gas on the pedal either.

The good news? We’re still early on the road, so hopefully things pick up quick.

WWE begins the ESPN era tonight, and frankly, it wasn’t great.

This 6 match card was very skippable. And if you’re not in the US and watching on Netflix, you never want to watch a PLE live again.

We started with John Cena and Brock. Paul E is back in Brock’s corner again, and Brock destroys Cena.

The Usos vs the Brons with The LA Knight as special referee was a spot fest.

Stephanie Vaquer and Iyo Sky put on a hell of match. Booker T is probably reaching for a towel somewhere. The post match respect angle and Vaquer celebrating with her father was the second best thing on this show. Maybe the best thing.

CM Punk and AJ Lee took on the Pop-Tart Twins of Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins. This was an AEW tag match that made it on WWE TV. If you like tag wrestling, don’t watch this.

The highlight of the night was Undertaker announcing that he was inducting Steph McMahon into the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame was a surprising segment. I really want to see the view from the Gorilla position on this one.

The main event was Cody and Drew. Don’t worry if you missed this, they’ll be doing this match again in Australia next month.
