Smackdown Live is the better show than Raw does. Despite Vince McMahon considering Raw as the flagship show, Smackdown needs to gain more attention for people to watch it. Smackdown was created in 1999 and it was named after one of The Rock's catchphrases, ''Lay the smackdown.''
For years the WWE still been treating Smackdown as a B-show and an afterthought show. We just tired of seeing Monday Night Raw as an A-show. Back in 2017 and 2018, Team Raw has still beating Team Smackdown for the brand supremacy at Survivor Series. Triple H should be able to run Smackdown Live in a good way like he did in NXT. Smackdown and NXT are better show than Raw, because the quality match and less promo.
Not to mention is that Smackdown will be moving to Fox and WWE will treat the Blue show fairly. It might be a huge comeback for Smackdown to beat Raw for the brand supremacy once again at Survivor Series. If Smackdown moves to Fox this October and will beat Raw once again, then the Team Blue will officially become an A-show. As far as Roman Reigns, Finn Balor and Bayley was there, then Smackdown Live will be an A-show, while Monday Night Raw would go down as a B-show.
