http://i0.wp.com/www.truesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/20160812_sd_preview_miztvambrosedolph-6903057cd82020ba090507a5a40c5653-e1471366805888-1.jpg?fit=640%2C359

Dean Ambrose defeated Baron Corbin in the main event of SmackDown this week. (WWE.com)

Tonight’s SmackDown couldn’t quite match the insanity of Monday Night Raw, but it was still a well-received episode overall, featuring progress on several major storylines.

The main event saw a match between Dean Ambrose and Baron Corbin, but we also saw a few more matches in the Tag Team Championship tournament, including one against The Hype Bros and the returning Headbangers, and another during which Heath Slater and Rhyno actually advanced to the next round.

Here are some of the best reactions and memes from throughout the show, presented in the order that they occurred.

What is the point of having the Hype Bros win? Why is the tournament all faces? That makes zero sense. #IGShow #SDLive

Man…I REALLY hope that The Vaudevillians are not getting ‘The Ascension’ treatment on the main roster. #SDLive #WWE

Should it still be surprising that everyone who wrestles @AJStylesOrg always looks amazing? #SDLive

WWE Raw August 29th: The Twitter Reactions & Memes You Need to See

http://i1.wp.com/www.truesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/kevin_owens_bio.jpg?fit=640%2C360

Kevin Owens has officially become the WWE Universal Champion (WWE.com)

Tonight’s Monday Night Raw was quite shocking to say the least. In the show’s main event, Triple H made a sudden return, attacking Seth Rollins and helping Kevin Owens win the WWE Universal Championship. The crowd in Houston went wild, as did thousands of WWE fans on social media, who were rooting for Owens but were dreading a possible Roman Reigns victory.

And that wasn’t all. There was also an incredible tag team match that saw Bayley teaming up with The New Day to fight Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows and Dana Brooke. Bayley had immediate chemistry with The New Day, and the team ultimately emerged victorious. Plus, Chris Jericho and Neville had a pretty entertaining match, as did Cesaro and Sheamus.

The only low points for a lot of fans were the match between Titus O’Neil and Darren Young and a segment between Paul Heyman and Stephanie McMahon, during which the two discussed Brock Lesnar’s behavior at SummerSlam.

As usual, Twitter was full of Raw reactions all throughout the show, with several WWE-related terms trending and with thousands of users sharing their favorite memes. Presented in the order that they were posted, here are some of the best reactions from August 29th’s episode of Monday Night Raw.

Kobe Bryant to have own day in Los Angeles on August 24

http://i1.wp.com/www.truesportsfan.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/kobe-bryant-last-game-philadelphia.jpg?fit=533%2C534

Kobe Bryant has been among the more prominent members of the Los Angeles sporting landscape and community for the past 20 years. On Wednesday, the city will honor him in a special way.

It was announced on Monday that August 24, 2016 will be “Kobe Bryant Day” in Los Angeles. The date 8-24 was chosen because Bryant, of course, wore both numbers on his uniform during his Hall of Fame career.

The City of Los Angeles declares 8.24 "Kobe Bryant Day." pic.twitter.com/7y2u0RPBLv

— Arash Markazi (@ArashMarkazi) August 23, 2016

The event will be another in an eventful week for Bryant. He rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange on Monday. Bryant also announced he’s launching a $ 100 million investment fund called Bryant Stibel. On Tuesday, Bryant will celebrate his 38th birthday. Not a bad week at all for the Mamba.
