Hmmm........

 

Angle.Vs.Henry

Lesnar.Vs.Rikishi

?

 

Time-to-look-into-the-TV-Guide.

[Guest HartFan86]

My Matt Hardy idea came true. Cool.

 

Sounds ok. I'll watch.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

I don't really see the need for:

 

Angle to fight Mark Fucking Henry again

 

Benoit to lose clean

 

Rikishi not losing clean to Lesnar

 

Matt Hardy being a face again

 

Deacon/D-Von stuff

[Guest The Ruthless Aggressor]

It looks like the Benoit/Rock match could be worth tuning in for. Everything else looks horrible.

[Guest El Psycho Diablo]

Wait..Benoit loses clean? Too bad it wasn't Triple H. *ducks*

 

heh..hypocracy at it's finest.

 

People don't want Lesnar to lose to Rikishi because he'll be champ in two weeks..but people want Rock to lose to Benoit while he is champ..hmm..

[Guest The Ruthless Aggressor]

Wait..Benoit loses clean? Too bad it wasn't Triple H. *ducks*

 

heh..hypocracy at it's finest.

 

People don't want Lesnar to lose to Rikishi because he'll be champ in two weeks..but people want Rock to lose to Benoit while he is champ..hmm..

-Champion vs. Champion. Neither title on the line though

[Guest The Ruthless Aggressor]

I don't think we should worry about Benoit jobbing to Rock though, at least this isn't as bad as him jobbing his first PPV match back to Bubba Dudley.

[Guest El Psycho Diablo]

..at least it's a loss to the current World Champ. I'd rather lose to Rock than to the guy who gets his heat off tables.

[Guest BionicRedneck]

I don't see the need for the IC champ to lose clean.

[Guest The Ruthless Aggressor]

At least he wasn't in the tag match recieving weak spears from Edge.

[Guest El Psycho Diablo]

I don't particularly see the need for the Undisputed Champ to lose clean, either. Bad situation.

[Guest chirs3]

Hey, this Hardy thing might actually work. If Matt's so cowardly he'd attack Jeff then jump brands...

 

Yea, if they do this right, it might work.

 

Wow, I've got a whole... two matches to watch on SD!.

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

I do really hope that one of the writers comes up with a better Brock finish than "Heyman distracts, Brock smash, Brock win!" sometime soon. I'm getting rather bored of that one.

 

Matt Hardy jumping ship...could be a good angle, particularly if Jeff still comes after Matt, trying to get a match out of him, but Matt uses the brand extension to dodge.

 

And why on earth is anyone complaining about Benoit jobbing? He's facing the fricking world champion, the Rock, and he lost clean to the Rock's *finishing move*.

 

First people bitch about Benoit being stuck in the midcard. Then people bitch about screwy match endings. Then people bitch about short matches. So, when Chris Benoit gets to wrestle the world champion in the lengthy main event of Smackdown, and the #1 man in the company defeats him clean, there's obviously something wrong here. Sigh.

 

In a near repeat of last week, it looks like the tag matches involving Edge and Rey and the Mooricane/B&C business are the bright spots...but with a potentially kickin' main event, too. Tape goes in.

[Guest Strike Force!]

Wait..Benoit loses clean? Too bad it wasn't Triple H. *ducks*

 

heh..hypocracy at it's finest.

 

People don't want Lesnar to lose to Rikishi because he'll be champ in two weeks..but people want Rock to lose to Benoit while he is champ..hmm..

Hypocrisy abounds whenever the Canadian Workrate Chris Benoit is involved.

[Guest Strike Force!]

I don't see the need for the IC champ to lose clean.

But it would be better for the World Champion to lose clean?

 

Let's be honest, if the Canadian Moveset wasn't the IC champ, people wouldn't be calling for him to go over the World Champ clean, and you know it.

[Guest bob_barron]

Rock v. Benoit sounds like a good competitive match which makes Benoit look good.

 

Smackdown! sounds like a really good show.

 

NO JOHN CENA!!!!!!!

[Guest Haku]

Cool, Eddy and Chavo are teaming up. They should have a great match with Rey and Edge. Although I'd rather see Eddy in singles action

[Guest Spaceman Spiff]

I sense that somebody doesn't like Chris Benoit...

[Guest bob_barron]

Well Strike Force doesn't watch for the wrestling, he watches for the angles

[Guest Anglesault]

I wish just once, someone would counter the damn spear. God, I HATE that move.

[Guest The Amazing Rando]

So Matt is a heel on RAW....but a face on SD?

 

that sounds like it could be good....

 

If he jumps back and forth and is on every show....he'd be a floating tweener....

 

how odd...

[Guest The Prodigy]

is the eye of the hurricane the shining wizard?

[Guest Edwin MacPhisto]

The Eye of the Hurricane is Helms' spinning elbow drop across the neck of his standing opponent. Also known in some circles as the Final Cut.

[Guest Raven_Effect01]

I don't think we should worry about Benoit jobbing to Rock though, at least this isn't as bad as him jobbing his first PPV match back to Bubba Dudley.

Yeah, Benoit being booked to lose to Bubba Ray at Vengeance was inexcusable.

[Guest Raven_Effect01]

I wish just once, someone would counter the damn spear. God, I HATE that move.

Someone could always use the Guillotine Choke to counter The Spear ala the THQ/AKI wrestling video games.

[Guest Zero_Cool]

Hmm...if Edge came in for the spear, but the other guy leaped forward looking for a DDT, would the DDT look cool, or awkward?

 

I may tape Benoit/Rock, because it's a lock to be ***.

[Guest The Amazing Rando]

most of my friends...when we mess around on gym mats.... take a DDT as if we were spearing the guy....so it could look okay

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

Well, shouldn't the IC champ (an upper-midcarder) lose clean to the fucking WORLD CHAMPION?

 

Doesn't that make sense?

[Guest deadbeater]

I wish just once, someone would counter the damn spear. God, I HATE that move.

Bret Hart did, Against Goldberg. Garbage lid stuffed down his chest.
