WWE Smackdown 5/1/03

WWE World Tag Team Titles:The Hurricane and The Big Show vs Team Angle©(w/Paul Heyman)

Highlights:Talk about your mish-mash of styles. You have the technical wrestling of Team Angle, the high flying of the Hurricane and the hossness of the Big Show. Hurricane played Ricky Morton but hit Haas with a superkick. Tag to the Big Show. Show is in, house of fire. He beats up Team Angle pretty well until Paul Heyman is on the ring apron. Remember Heyman is the Big Show's former manager. Heyman left Big Show because he failed to injure Brock Lesnar prior to Wrestlemania. Show slugs Heyman but gets hit with a Double Exploder Suplex by the Champions. This is enough for three. Team Angle are still champions. **

Winners:Team Angle(via a Double Exploder)

64(67, 58)

Notes:Big Show lost overness from this match. Hurricane lost overness from this match. Shelton Benjamin gained overness from this match. Charlie Haas gained overness from this match. Big Show didn't really sell very much, which hurt the match rating. The WWE Tag Team title has lost image.

Rhyno:I want airtime. I signed with the Smackdown brand for the highest quality opponents. I have not had a match of high magnitude since my match with Brock Lesnar a couple of months ago. I want a match tonight.

Stephanie:Fine Rhyno. Since you are gung-ho about having a match. You can face Chris Benoit tonight. Thank you and good day.

Lucha Libre Style Cruiserweight Match for the WWE Cruiserweight Title:Nova vs Tajiri vs Jaime Knoble vs Spanky©

Highlights:The rules of this match are very simple. Two men shall be in the ring at once. When you get thrown out, another wrestler can replace you. Tags can also be made. First pinfall scored will declare the winner. Knoble and Tajiri started out and Tajiri laced into Knoble with kicks. Nova and Tajiri had some good moments. Knoble and Nova had a nice sequence. Knoble threw himself to the outside to avoid the Sliced Bread #2. Tajiri came in and went for the Brainbuster but Spanky reverses into an inverted DDT. Spanky dropkicks Knoble off the ring apron and Spanky with a superkick to Nova. Spanky then hits Sliced Bread #2 to pin Tajiri. ***

Remember the events of November 29, 1999. You were primed and ready to have the power of the McMahon family behind you. You were to be the Game. If things went your way, I would be you.

Jericho:Its a conspricy. At Backlash I beat you in the center of the ring. I heard you screaming I QUIT. I GIVE UP. PLEASE HAVE MERCY Y-2-J. Yet the referee didn't do anything. He continued the match until you scored a fluke pin over me. That was bogus. I took matters in my own hands last week and took the belt, the world heavyweight title belt, MY belt away from your possession. At Judgement Day I will beat you and prove that you are NEVER, EVER going to hold this a-gain.

WWE Heat Recap from 4/11/03

This is Matt Harms watching Heat so YOU don't have to. Althrough why anyone would want to watch this show, I don't know. Nothing important happens on it. Velocity sometimes has the promise of a good cruiserweight match.

Tonight:Torrie Wilson faces Trish Stratus in a bikini contest, Booker T will be in action, and Lita faces Molly Holly.

Spike Dudley vs Shawn Candido

The jobber doesn't get an intro or a graphic. He is ID'ed as Shawn Candido by FRICKEN' Terri of all people. Isn't this a bit jobberish even for Heat. Spike Dudley controls the match for once. Flying Double Foot Stomp and Candido sells pretty decent. Candido gets some offense but gets kicked and Dudley Dawged for the pin in 3:11. *

Winner:Spike Dudley(via the Dudley Dawg)

52(41, 63)

A transformation

Justin Credible is sitting backstage. Former ECW Champion to Heat Jobber. Well if anyone deserves it, it has to be Credible. Credible goes through his gym bag and pulls out the old Aldo Montoya outfit. WTF. Credible goes into the dressing room to put it on. The Return of Aldo Montoya? Stay Tuned

53

Aldo Montoya(Yes ALDO MONTOYA) vs Tommy Dreamer in a non-title, non-Hardcore Match

Tommy Dreamer brings the brand new WWE Hardcore Title Belt to the ring which suspiciously looks like the ECW World Title in design. Credible looks like a goon with that jock strap over his head. Well if they want to turn him full jobber, why not bring back Aldo Montoya. Raven watches from the ramp. They trade holds, putting together a decent enough match for wrestling about five thousand times in ECW. Terri and Coach decide to talk about the Horsemen during this match. Anyway Dreamer ducks a Superkick and Spicolli Drivers Credible for the pin in 5:05. Raven leaves. **

Winner:Tommy Dreamer(via the Spicolli Driver)

72(82, 49)

Ash Parker vs Booker T

Ash Parker is in the main event. Coach says the top six stars on Raw are Austin, Booker, HHH, RVD, Jericho, and Jeff Hardy. JEFF HARDY. Since when is Rainbow Bright the top star of anything. Minor rant. Parker works over Booker T. Parker hits a backdrop suplex and poses. Booker T does the spinaroonie and kick to the midsection. Ax Kick. That is enough for three. Booker T wins. 3:56. ** 3/4

Winner:Booker T(via the Ax Kick)

Torrie tries to help but Jazz just suplexes her on the ramp. Jazz posts Trish. Lawler tries to pull Trish off but Jazz manhandles Lawler. HA. Lawler pulls off his jacket and looks pissed.

WWE Raw 5/12/03 Recap

We start out with something a bit different, a match. Yeah I never have heard of a wrestling program starting with a wrestling match either.

Glen Jacobs vs Dave Batista(w/Ric Flair)

AGAIN. Didn't we see this match a few weeks ago. Anyway Batista pounds Glen Jacobs and Jacobs gets the advantage. A pair of super clotheslnies gets a one and a half count. The six man tag match that was supposed to be Rhodes, Basham, and HHH vs Austin, Test, and Booker is now Batista, HHH, and Basham vs Test, Booker, and Austin. Dustin Rhodes broke his nose over the weekend at a house show and will be out. Jacobs goes for the choke slam but Flair interrupts. Jacobs choke slams Flair and walks right into a power bomb for the pin in 7:32. After the match Batista hit two more power bombs. *** 1/4

Winner:Dave Batista(via a sitout power bomb)

83(84, 81)

Notes:Glen Jacobs lost overness from this match. Dave Batista gained overness from this match.

Triple H interview

Oh goody a Triple H interview.

Triple H:Austin, last week, you were thinking you would get a singles match with me. You would get me in a six man tag team match at Judgement Day instead. It doesn't matter through. The Horsemen will END Your Career at Judgement Day. You are living on borrowed time Stone Cold. The Horsemen will finish what I started at Backlash. I am the Game and I am THAT DAMN GOOD.

85

King of the Ring Qualifier:Tommy Dreamer vs Steven Richards

The winner will get to the quarterfinals of the Raw portion of the KOTR. Steven pounds Dreamer at the bell but a double leg takedown and a legdrop to the groin stopped Steven's flurry. Dreamer punches away at Steven but gets low blowed. Steven Kick gets two. Steven can't believe it and neither can we. Steven goes up top but misses whatever he was going for. Dreamer with a kick and Dreamer DDT. Three is scored in 3:07. Dreamer is in the KOTR. * 1/2

Winner:Tommy Dreamer(via the Dreamer DDT)

58(50, 66)

Notes:This match suffered because the crowd were still pumped up from the last one, and so this bout was seen as something of a let-down to them.

Spike Dudley vs Raven in the KOTR qualifier

Raven beats on Spike Dudley to start. Spike fights back and goes for the Dudley Dawg but is thrown off by Raven. Raven with a kick to the gut and Evenflow(I refuse to call it the Raven Effect). Three count is made in 1:32. That was short. ** 1/2

Winner:Raven(via the Evenflow DDT)

71(67, 75)

Jazz vs Stacy Keibler(w/Doug Basham)

Stacy is wearing a Horsemen T-Shirt and not much else underneath. Basham shoves Stacy into the waiting clutches of Jazz and Jazz pounds Stacy. This is a slaughter. Nice double underhook suplex from Jazz. Jazz power bombs Stacy. Jazz rubs Stacy's face into the mat. Jazz shoves the referee down. Test runs out and clotheslines Basham. Test now enters the ring. Jazz is not backing down. WHAT A BOOT FROM TEST. Test nearly knocked Jazz's head off of her shoulders with that. Stacy with a cover. Three Count. Stacy pins Jazz in 3:03 with a little help from Test. Basham pulls Stacy back out and drags her backstage. 11 more weeks for the Horsemen. **

Test:You are on bitch. See you next week. I have another Big Boot for you.

Jazz slaps Test but a futher fight is broken up by Road Agents. Test vs Jazz next week?

49

Notes:Jazz lost overness from this segment. Test lost overness from this segment.

Rob Van Dam(w/Bill Alfonso) vs William Regal for the World Heavyweight Title

How did William Regal get a shot at the World Heavyweight Title. He hasn't seen much action in the past couple of months. Well never mind because the match is pretty good. Van Dam stiffs Regal with a kick and Regal spears Van Dam. Lots of stiff shots by both men. They were worked stiff shots of course but neither man isn't a pussy. Regal with the half nelson suplex spiking Van Dam on his head. Jesus Christ that was a sick move. We see a replay from three different camera angles. Regal with the knuckles and he smacks RVD with them. Two count. Regal goes for the knuckles again but Van Dam kicks him out of his hand. Plan B is a low blow. Regal cradles RVD but RVD wiggles out for a nearfall. Fonzie throws the chair to Regal. Don't catch it William, whoops too late. Van Daminator. Van Dam is up top and Five Star Frog Splash. Three is made in 8:09. Chris Jericho runs out and grabs the chair. HUGE Shot to Van Dam. Fonzie gets chaired as well. Jericho mocks the RVD finger point. ***

Hmm, we have 30 minutes until the end. Either this match is going to be long or something is up. Booker T gets pounded by 3 Minute Warning in the corner. Rico takes his shots with some kicks. That was a stiff spinning heel kick. 3MW with a double diving headbutt. Booker T fights out and tag to Test. Test is in and Test pounds both but gets trapped in the heel corner. Test hits Rico with the big boot and tag to Stone Cold. Austin rams the heads of Rosey and Jamal together. Big mistake, double headbutt. Booker T and Test take the Samoans out and Rico goes for a spin kick but Austin ducks it. KICK WHAM STUNNER. Rico flies into the air. Austin scores the pin in 9:34. ***

Winners:Steve Austin, Booker T, and Test(via a Stunner on Rico)

76(76, 77)

WWE Woman's Title:Trish Stratus© vs Molly Holly

THIS is your main event(well match anyway. I expect we will see something involving the Horsemen to cloe the show). They have wrestled about 500 times so it is pretty good. Molly misses the Molly Go Round and Trish hits the Stratusfaction for the pin in 4:32. No Jazz run in. That is a shock. ***

Winner:Trish Stratus(via the Stratusfaction)

79(89, 58)

Notes:The WWE Womans title has gained in image.

Austin goes for a beer:

Austin is at the concession stands.

Austin:I want a large beer son. Hurry up.

Doug Basham pops from behind the counter and sprays Austin with a face full of beer. The rest of the Horsemen attack. The camera view is obscured. We here whacking sounds, like a pipe on skin. Triple H has Austin and THROWS HIM THROUGH A PLATE GLASS WINDOW. Austin is coughing up blood but Triple H is pounding Austin some more. Flair has a pipe and Flair with a shot to the rattlesnake. Austin is laying in a pool of his own blood. Triple H has the sledgehammer. Triple H smacks Austin with a shot to the face. Another shot. A third shot. Austin has lost a lot of blood in this attack. Austin can barley even move since he has lost so much blood. We fade out with the Horsemen standing over a bloody Austin.

Chris Benoit wants Rhyno to know who the submission specialist is in the WWE

Out comes Chris Benoit. Chris Benoit now comes out.

Benoit:Two weeks ago I fought Rhyno. It was one of the toughest matches of my life but I didn't get pinned. Sure it was a double countout but Rhyno refused to prove me wrong and pin me in the center of the ring or make me submit. I am the top submission specialist in the WWE and that covers a lot of ground. At Judgement Day Rhyno will...

"Medal" plays and out comes Rhyno. Rhyno doesn't look happy. Rhyno has the microphone.

Rhyno:First of all Benoit, you think you are the top submission wrestler in the WWE. Well I beg to differ. I think you are decent but lets not fool the fans. I am ten times more adept at submissions then you are. I will prove it tonight when I face Edge. I will win by submission. I refuse to win by any other way.

Benoit:Well Rhyno, if you think you are the greatest submission wrestler in the WWE there is only one way to find out. At Judgement Day our match shall be a submission match. The first person to make his opponent tap has the right to bill himself as the top submission wrestler in the WWE.

Rhyno:You got it Benoit. I will prove you wrong and make you tap at the PPV.

77(76, 79)

However...the night is not over:

Brock celebrates on the ramp but gets jumped by Eddie Guerrero. Eddie beats on Brock with the title belt, opening up a cut on the champion's forehead. Eddie locks on the Lasso from El Passo. This is the one move that Brock cannot escape. He has never found a way out. Tonight is no different. Eddie has it on the ramp and as the referees beg in to release it he just sinches it on tighter. Eddie has the hold on a bloodied Brock as Smackdown draws to a close.

WWE Heat 5/18/03 Report

Your hosts are Jonathan Coachman and....JIM CORNETTE. Heat may actually be a show worth tuning into now. After months of Terri, Lita, and D'Lo, we finally get a decent colour commentator. Hopefully this isn't a one shot deal.

Mark Jindrak vs Jeff Hardy

Rainbow Bright opens up against Mark "I was Part of the Invasion, You Know" Jindrak. Jindrak uses his power against Hardy but misses a splash off the top rope. Usual Hardy comeback. Jeff Hardy with a sitdown faceslam and he finishes off Jindrak with the Swanton Bomb in 3:21. ** 1/2

71(69, 73)

And its official

Jeff Hardy is in the ring and Jonathan Coachman has left the ring to get a couple of words with Hardy.

Coachman:Jeff Hardy, you have been on a roll like none over of the past couple of weeks. You are in the Raw portion of the King of the Ring Tournament and tonight a big win over Mark Jindrak.

Jeff Hardy:All I can see is, Jeff Hardy is officially back on track...

"Christian, Christian, At Last You are on Your Own"

Out comes Christian. What does this pompous jerk want.

Christian:Nice victory Jeff. Being the little buddy of RVD sees to be paying off for you. Wins over Johnny Stamboli and Mark Jindrak. WOW. But everytime you fight a real wrestler such as Triple H, Chris Jericho, or Dave Batista, you get pounded again and again and again.

Jeff Hardy:You want a piece of me Christian.

Christian:Yeah. It seems like their is one more slot open at Judgement Day. Much like my good buddy Chris Jericho will beat your good buddy RVD, I will pound you into the mat and finish you off once and for all.

The match is on. Chrisitian will face Jeff Hardy in one week at Judgement Day. An offshoot to the RVD-Chris Jericho feud.

Notes:Jazz gained overness from this segment.

William Regal and Lance Storm vs Spike Dudley and Billy Gunn

Remember when Regal and Storm were getting shots at the Tag Team Titles on Raw. (Speaking of which, hasn't it been more then 30 days since they have been defended). Remember when Billy Gunn was feuding with the Horsemen. Remember when Spike Dudley was er I have to stretch back to the Invasion to get anything worthy of Spike, having a mini-feud with Steve Austin. Boy the mighty have fallen far. Billy Gunn gets isolated but fights back. Tag to Spike. Spike is a house of fire. Dudley Dawg to Storm but he has the wrong man. Regal hits Spike with the Power of the Punch. This gets three. Afterwards Billy Gunn and Spike argue. Oh boy Billy Gunn vs Spike Dudley. I can hardly stand the excitement. Match was about ** 3/4

Winners:William Regal and Lance Storm(via the Power of the Punch to Spike)

Alledged Main Event:Bobby Rude vs Christian

Christian has a PPV match next Sunday and Rude is a job boy, gee I wonder whom is going to win. Rude has a brief comeback in the middle to actually try and fool us that Christian might lose. Rude misses a flying cross body and Christian with a Reverse DDT for the pin(No Unprettier??). Jeff Hardy runs out and knocks Christian to the outside. The originally planned Jeff Hardy vs Dave Batista match was killed due to the injury to Dustin Rhodes so this match was hastily thrown together. * 1/2

Because I am the Game and I am that damn GOOD.

More pissed then I ever have been in my life and that is saying someting. The Horsemen are MINE. Screw the six man this Sunday. If any one of those Jackasses try and cross me, I will stomp the biggest mudhole in their asses that you have ever seen. Flair, Triple H, Batista, it just doesn't matter. If they do make it to the six man, you might as well throw out the rulebook. I don't care what Booker T and Test are going to do, but I am not pulling any punches. This has gone from business to personal. You tried to end my career last week Triple H. At Judgement Day I will end yours. and thats the bottom line because Stone Cold said so.

March 26, 2003

WWE World Title:

Eddie Guerrero vs Brock Lesnar©

- As much as I'd like Guerrero to walk away with the title, I see Lesnar retaining for now.

World Heavyweight Title:

Rob Van Dam© vs Chris Jericho

- This match is kinda an iffy one for me to decide on. I'm goign with Jericho, just so a good Jericho/Triple H feud comes out of this. Seeing as Triple H keeps losing title shots, this would only further his point as he'd actually have to try and get one.

Cage Match:

Kurt Angle vs the Undertaker

- To further put over Kurt Angle, I see Taker losing. Angle is the Almighty force that shall take away Lesnar's title (or at least how I'd book it).

Six Man Grudge Match:

Test, Booker T, and Steve Austin vs Triple H, Dave Batista, and Doug Basham

- I see this match being a win for the Horsemen. I think Basham will get the pin on Test, just so this storyline can further develope. Yet, in the end, lose or draw, I think Austin stuns the hell out of everyone.

Submission Match:

Rhyno vs Chris Benoit

- Benoit's in his element, thus by WWE, he should lose as anyone who is in his element should lose the match, thus making the other guy seem like gold.

Christian vs Jeff Hardy

- Hm... I don't really know where this will go, but I'm predicting that Hardy falls just a little short here, and Christian wins.

WWE Interconinental Title Match:

Edge vs Matt Hardy Version 1.0©

- Hardy's been holding that belt for a good while. However, I think Edge should win the title so Matt can move onto bigger and better things. Like going after Lesnar next.

WWE Woman's Title Match:

Jazz vs Trish Stratus©

- Meh... I never cared for the Woman's title before, and no offense, I still can't get too into it. Yet, I think Jazz will win the title from Trish.

Sunday Night Heat Match:

Three Way Dance for the WWE Cruiserweight Title:

Spanky© vs Billy Kidman vs Jaime Knoble.

- Should be a good match, yet I think a title won't change here. I'm predicting that good ol' Spanky retains his Cruiserweight title.

No Tag Team Title matches? I'm kinda shocked.

Edge:Yes Matt Hardy. Once a dork, always a dork. This Sunday the Interconinental Title is coming to me for the fifth time.

Matt Hardy:You know, Edge, being a four time Interconinental Champion is nothing to be proud of. That means you lost the title four times.

A look at Kurt Angle training

Well it seems that Kurt Angle has had Paul Heyman devise a training plan for him. This first part...Kurt playing dodgeball. Yes you read that right. Kurt gets bombarded with about 20 volleyballs at once. Kurt gets some great one liners. This is apperently to work on Kurt' s speed for his match against Brock Lesnar at King of the Ring.

Funaki vs Rory Fox

Last week Fox had a bad debut against Crash Holly. He thinks he is the savior of the cruiserweight division. Funaki dropkicks Fox out the gate and hits him with some punches and chops. Fox hangs up Funaki and slowly punches him. Fox now slams Funaki and Fox with a full nelson. Is this some kind of sick joke. Funaki fights out but Fox hits a clothesline(wow moveset) for two. Fox takes it up top and hits a double axhandle blow. Fox slams Funaki and splash meets the knees. Funaki fights back and hits his leaping tornado DDT which normally looks cool but sucks this time because Fox takes a pussy bump off of it. Funaki is tripped by Fox and gets slingshotted into the ringpost. Fox hits a high knee to score the pin. Seriously. * for Funaki trying but nothing was there. Fox has one more chance to make it good. If he strikes out against Spanky at KOTR he has proven himself to be a worthless lump.

Winner:Rory Fox(via a high knee)

55(52, 59)

Notes:Rory Fox gained overness from this match.

Rhyno calls out the Undertaker

Out comes Rhyno. Rhyno attacked the Undertaker last week during his match with Matt Hardy for no reason at all. Rhyno has the microphone.

Rhyno:First of all. Last week I attacked the Undertaker. Why. Just because I felt like it thats f(mute)king why. If he has a problem with me, he can get his ass out here with me and tell it to my face.

Rhyno is calling out the Undertaker. The announcers point out that the Undertaker isn't here tonight.

Rhyno:Come on Undertaker, you big pussy. Are you afraid of me.

Still no response.

Rhyno:I guess he is. Tony Chimel announce it.

Tony Chimel:The winner of the match as a result of a forfeit, Rhyno.

Rhyno has challenged the Undertaker and he is not here so Rhyno declared himself the winner by default.
