Dragon Gate USA booker Gabe Sapolsky wrote a blog in which he stated that Tuesday's WWE Smackdown taping in Philadelphia sucked. "Punk was great, but the taping sucked," Sapolsky wrote on his Myspace blog. "Most of the wrestlers were robotic (stop at top of ramp, pose, walk into ring, ignore entire crowd and turn to hard cam, pose, turn back to ramp and wait for opponent).

"Everything was formulaic. I sat there for two hours from the opening bell waiting through dead time between matches and endless videos before Smackdown actually started. However, it wasn't all bad as Tommy Dreamer is still over in Philly and Punk is a superstar. Anyway, my point. I saw some crappy wrestling lately that turned me off to the business."

Powell's POV: Sapolsky's criticism didn't go unnoticed. Chris Jericho responded on his Twitter page. More on that on the main page.
