Guest Zack Malibu Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I thought Ross said in his Ross Report that O'Haire was injured with a groin tear or something. And he's on the RAW roster anyhow (well, HEAT roster to be exact.) I'm kinda doubtful about these spoilers right now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I'll throw in my two cents here: 1) Crash Holly & Hurricane Helms beat Jamie Noble and Tajari I guess this is our token cruiser Velocity match this week, so hopefully it's good. 2) Albert beat Funaki May I be the first to say, WHY is Albert beating FUNAKI? Albert sucks, and Funaki is over. 3) Bull Buchanan & Michael Shane (?) beat Lenny Lane & Shawn O'Hare Will this air? I hope, but doubtful. Might be cool. 4) Val Venis beat Horace Hogan What is this doing on Velocity? Like the world was waiting for Hogan's nephew to debut on WWE TV... 5) D-Von beat Shannon Moore. Again, why is the not over heavyweight pinning the OVER cruiserweight? Smackdown Brock Lesnar beat Hardcore Holly Should be energetic, at least. Los Guerreros defeated Edge & John Cena Build from last week's Velocity, with Chavo and Cena, plus Eddy/Edge again? Hopefully this was long and had tons of goodness from the Guerreros, who rule the earth right now. Kurt Angle beat Rey Misterio Put Rey in with the stinking cruisers already. Probably a good match, but it's only hurting him the longer he stays with the heavys. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the time, though, Meltzer is not one to post stuff that might be wrong. So, I'm kind of torn on this, but I'll go ahead as of right now as if they're real and change later if they aren't.

Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 PWTorch.com's Wade Keller and Jason Powell are in attendance at the WWE Smackdown/Velocity tapings in Minneapolis, MN. The event has just concluded. The main angle on this Thursday's episode of WWE Smackdown will be the "commitment ceremony" between Billy (Gunn) and Chuck (Palumbo). The crowd reaction was mixed, but there was no anti-gay chants during the proceedings. Earlier in the show, Rico had talked Stephanie McMahon into being a witness for the ceremony. Three black female singers sang "It's raining Men". An elderly Justice of the Peace officiated the ceremony. The man looked old enough to be Mae Young's father, and his hands shook throughout the segment. The team said a few words before the ceremony. Chuck said that Billy was a great tag team partner who had captured his heart. Billy laughed and said "Damn, that was corny! That's what makes you so special." They played a musical montage of Billy and Chuck on the Titantron called "Our Love Story" featuring Billy and Chuck's most homoerotic clips. The ceremony began. When the Justice said "Speak now or forever hold your peace," the Godfather came out with his hos to a huge reaction. Godfather asked Billy if he still "had pimp in him". He then reminded Chuck that he was once a skirt chaser, then remembered aloud that Chuck always liked the "heftier ladies". "What in the Hizzell is goin' on here?" asked Godfather. Rico told Godfather "Nobody wants to see you and the goodtime girls here." Godfather left, saying "You don't know what you're missing." The Justice led Billy through his vows as the crowd chanted "Just say Ho". Billy hesitated and, with Rico's encouragement, said yes. Chuck went through his vows, but said "Yeah, I guess," in an unconvincing manner. Billy then interrupted, telling Rico "This wasn't supposed to go this far. This was supposed to be a publicity stunt." "We're not gay," said Billy, "nothing against gay people. And if I was gay, I probably wouldn't marry Chuck." Rico got upset and blamed the crowd for "screwing this up." The Justice said it was too late to back out, as the rings and vows had already been exchanged. However, he noted that the ceremony had gone on for a long time, "about three minutes too long." In classic Scooby Doo fashion, the elderly "Justice" unmasked as Eric Bischoff. Stephanie McMahon freaked out as Rico turned, helping the Island Boys attack Billy and Chuck. Stephanie tried to escape, but Bischoff caught her, and Jamal and Rosie then attacked Stephanie and left her laying. Edge, Cena and Rey made the save, then the rest of the Smackdown locker room came out to assist them. Wade and Jason will have a full writeup on the rest of the tapings later on today.

Guest Zack Malibu Report post Posted September 11, 2002 Rico's gonna rock the house on RAW! You know, having Rico play the flamboyant bastard that he is, only to have The Island Boyz be his muscle...shit...Eric Bischoff could make three OVW guys into one hell of a stable if Rico has jumped.

Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I can just imagine Bischoff making the mask pulling very Scooby Doo-like, complete with overexaggeration by ducking the head and yanking up. It should be hilarious. This has Heyman's fingerprints all over it, and it's awesome. Not the fact that the wedding was even planned, but Bischoff makes it all better.

Guest midnight_burn Report post Posted September 11, 2002 That actually doesn't sound too bad. A possible Rico push and Steph getting the 3 minute treatment makes it automatically good. And as usual Bischoff rules all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
