Guest BoboBrazil Report post Posted September 11, 2002 some more from wrestlingobserver.com: Rikishi over Chris Benoit by DQ when Angle interfered The Billy/Chuck "wedding" segment had Godfather interrupting, then Billy and Chuck said it was a publicity stunt and then they had a Justice of the Peace (Bischoff in makeup, who said the segment went 3 minutes too long. The Island Boyz attacked Stephanie McMahon. The locker room ran out and Rico and the Island Boys bailed out. Rico looks to have joined Bischoff's crew. Matt Hardy defeated Undertaker by countout as Taker ran after Paul Heyman, who was harassing Undertaker's pregnant wife. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I think its freaking hilarious, but Ill bet the media is pissed after this goes down, cause they will look bad... Of course they'll be pissed. It's one more time where Vinnie Mac pulls the wool over the eyes of the media, and they didn't like it any of the times he did it before. Vince has a fetish for screwing with the media, just like he has a similar one for messing with the feds and the government. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest snowfan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 alright, this raises a serius question.....Vince bombards the media with this, and thye take interest, commenting on how Vince is sensitevly dealing with issues and lauding him all over the place....Isnt this pretty much a fuck you to them?...I think its freaking hilarious, but Ill bet the media is pissed after this goes down, cause they will look bad... They'll no-sell it if they do their homework... seriously. but the press is lazy so Vince may pull it off.... Vince is foolhardy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 So, with the additional stuff, here are the full Smackdown tapings (with my thoughts if I haven't given them already): 1) Crash Holly & Hurricane Helms beat Jamie Noble and Tajari 2) Albert beat Funaki 3) Bull Buchanan & Michael Shane (?) beat Lenny Lane & Shawn O'Hare 4) Val Venis beat Horace Hogan 5) D-Von beat Shannon Moore. Smackdown Brock Lesnar beat Hardcore Holly Los Guerreros defeated Edge & John Cena Kurt Angle beat Rey Misterio Rikishi over Chris Benoit by DQ when Angle interfered Benoit should never lose to Rikishi, even if it's by DQ. We are lucky for the Angle/Benoit program, though, for the matches we'll get. The Billy/Chuck "wedding" segment had Godfather interrupting, then Billy and Chuck said it was a publicity stunt and then they had a Justice of the Peace (Bischoff in makeup, who said the segment went 3 minutes too long. The Island Boyz attacked Stephanie McMahon. The locker room ran out and Rico and the Island Boys bailed out. Rico looks to have joined Bischoff's crew. Well, this is different from what I thought it would be. Bischoff rules, and Rico might get a push. That's all I can say positive about this. Matt Hardy defeated Undertaker by countout as Taker ran after Paul Heyman, who was harassing Undertaker's pregnant wife. What kind of fricking main event is this?

Guest The Tino Standard Report post Posted September 11, 2002 Cubbie, in response to your bit about the media, they have been ripping WWE for doing this (a nice example are the guys on ESPN's Pardon the Interruption) as strictly a publicity stunt. Then again, there's an old saying: "There's no such thing as bad publicity." I'd say Vince got this one out to the media and they all fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Guest kane3212321 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 That sounds mega awesome, who the hell came up with such a smart idea for the commitment ceremony, I cannot wait to see this, if it's done perfect could be one of the best segments ever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Cubbie78 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 good points all...I in fact watched the PTI segment where they ripped Vince for it, but I guess I was more referring to The New York Time(post?) editorial where they spoke highly of him....I love Vince screwing with the media though, I think they are too full of themselves anyway, some of them should take a hard look at themselves, sop they arent set up like this again....hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 PTI is just about the best sports opinion show out there, but they're totally out of their element and unprepared when wrestling comes up. They really have no business talking about it as if they're experts. PTI actually reminds me of the O'Reilly Factor in a lot of ways (which is a good thing from my perspective). To make it wrestling and Smackdown spoiler related, I'll probably watch Friday (and tomorrow, too, to see if they checked the spoilers and did their homework) to see the reaction.

Rob E Dangerously 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 "Matt Hardy defeated Undertaker by countout as Taker ran after Paul Heyman, who was harassing Undertaker's pregnant wife." Oh come on! Undertaker could chase Heyman down. It's friggin Heyman! then again, there is a reason why UT rides down on a motorcycle. Who expects Heyman to say that he is the father of the baby (or Brock is) just to mess with the Undertaker more? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I have no doubt Heyman will try the "It was ME" argument, and it will eventually be proven that he really didn't. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest MarvinisaLunatic Report post Posted September 11, 2002 As much as I think the Billy Chuck thing is funny, its going to bring on a whole lot of negative publicity, not to mention the fact that it could offend some fans and even some advertisers. The rest of the show sounds stupid.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wwF1587 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 LMAO Oh my god! Vince pulled that gay "wedding" off perfectly! Noone saw that coming and the media is going to look kinda foolish now. Its times like these I wish I could see SD!. That should of been the main event and not Matt/UT. Oh well. Good goin Vince. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaYourCar 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 Wow, I guess we really should have waited until it went down to pass judgement. Most original idea ever!!!

Rob E Dangerously 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I think Heyman having sex with any female is sorta out of the picture.. so I don't think he will claim that he is nailing Sara. Brock might.. him being the Genetic Jackhammer and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest deadbeater Report post Posted September 11, 2002 Actually, that wasn't bad. The wedding segment have elements of "It's The Garry Schandling Show" with Billy breaking down the fourth wall--the media did allude to the fact that they weren't really gay, so the media plays a part in the storyline. Then it goes Miller Light ca. 1986/Pepsi Twist 2002 when Halle Barry turns into Barry Bostwick--er the preacher turns into Eric Bischoff. Well guess we got a new name for Three minutes--the Gay Bashers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Brian Report post Posted September 11, 2002 They don't need a blockbuster main event every week, especially on a show that was hyped on the commitment ceremony. Undertaker's the challenger heading into the next show and Matt Hardy, is well, he reeks of mattitude. Anyways, this is why smackDown should be live. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest TakerGirlLA Report post Posted September 11, 2002 Matt Hardy defeated Undertaker by countout as Taker ran after Paul Heyman, who was harassing Undertaker's pregnant wife. Could someone please tell me if Vince is suicidal? HLA, Billy & Chuck reversal, and Taker's wife apparently on camera again. Or do they just not care about what the people who watch the show say? I can understand throwing it in the media's face but some of this stuff is going from bad to worse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ISportsFan Report post Posted September 11, 2002 I think the biggest complaint I have is that Benoit is stuck fighting STUPID Rikishi. He's the best worker they've got, and they have nothing better to do than stick him with a tub of 400# BUTT-cheeks. Jason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find you guys highly entertaining and informative. I've never thought they'd stoop so low as to put a pregnant SaraTaker in the ring (then again you never know with VKM), but I still hate the whole angle.
