Recap of the Eddy/Edge match by CRZ:

 

EDDIE GUERRERO (El Paso, Tejas - 228 pounds - and SmackDown! is brought to you by Clearasil, Lugz, and PlayStation 2!) v. EDGE (Toronto, Ontario - 241 pounds - with Forceable Entry CD cover) with No Disqualification

referee: MIKE SPARKS

Cole promises this match will be the conclusion to the long-running rivalry....hmm. We are told Guerrero won Sunday through nefarious means, and also people who buy pay-per-views are suckers. HERE WE GO: Lockup, to the corner, right by Guerrero, right, elbow, elbow to the back of the head, elbow, into the corner, back elbow, stomp, headlock applied - Edge shoves him off but (no way!) Guerrero shoulderblocks him. Off the ropes, up and over, leapfrog by Edge, drops down for a monkey flip and Guerrero ALMOST lands RIGHT on his head. Edge right, forearm, wraps his left arm around the rope, Guerrero grabs the hair and goes for the eyes but Edge stays in control. That one woman FINALLY stops screaming, thank God. Hammerlock by Edge, steps on the knee to put Guerrero down - keys the lock and holds it, but Guerrero's back to his feet - Edge rammed into the buckle, shoulder, shoulder, shoulder, forearm. Eddie up and over to the floor, throating Edge on his way down. Back in, feet on the ropes, Edge gets the shoulder up. STOP SCREAMING, WOMAN. Guerrero plays to the crowd and gets the boos he deserves. Whip is reveresed, big back body drop by Edge! Guerrero up slowly, Edge with a nice dropkick. Scoop...and a slam by Edge. Off the ropes, drops the elbow, cover, 2. Edge applies the armbar. A little hairpull from Edge as well - bad blood!! Cole reminds Tazz there's no DQ, and I'd forgotten too - damn he's good! Guerrero with a knee, kick, standing enzuigiri (!) and turns it around - Guerrero stomp, stomp, stomp. Big handful of hair - winds up for the elbow. And there's a big right hand. Guerrero continues shuffling - NICE suplex - 1, 2, Edge kicks out! Guerrero clamps on the headlock and says something to rile up the Latino contingent. Edge finally makes his way back to a knee - crowd responds - back to two feet - elbow to the gut, elbow, breaks it up, but Guerrero stil has the hair - forearm by Guerrero - into the ropes is reversed, and Edge hits a powerslam! Both men are down...Edge pulls himself up by the ropes to make it out first. Edge climbing up...but Guerrero meets him there with a right hand. Guerrero climbs to the top rope as well - will he? YES! TOP ROPE SUPERPLEX!! That took a lot out of both men, but Eddie manages a press - 1, 2, NO!! Guerrero up first. Elbow, elbow to the back of the head, elbow. Another big elbow across the temple. Eddie helps him up - and again connects with the elbow. Into the ropes is reversed, Guerrero up on the shoulders...but Edge stops him, then throws him off into a hot shot, then clotheslines him out to the floor! Edge is out of the ring in a hurry - but comes up with a ladder from underneath the ring! Up on his shoulder - running at Guerrero but he ducks - AND SPARKS DOES NOT! Guerrero takes advantage of the distraction to give Edge a forearm in the back - produces a chair and WHACKS him in the back. Two men down, one mullet up. Subway Replay shows Sparks get pasted again. Guerrero rolls Edge in the ring and brings the chair in with him - stands on the back and WHACKS the ribs. Guerrero again beats his chest and the crowd responds. Guerrero's feeling froggy and continues to egg on the crowd...frog splash coming up - NO!! Edge rolls out just in time but can't move any further! Three men are down and we've GOT to take a break!!

 

TV-PG-DLV - Nobody's getting nachos and the bathrooms are empty - when we return, MIKE CHIODA has joined the mix as Guerrero stands over Edge with a right, right, right, right, right, right, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp. Sparks is still a slug at ringside. Guerrero dares Edge to get to his feet - into the ropes, climbs on the back for the sleeper!! Edge rapidly fades down to a sitdown. KORDERAS & HEBNER arrive to help Sparks to the back. We take the entire screen to possibly cover an edit and also replay the ladder shot again. DURING THE BREAK! Guerrero's clothesline ducked - Edge with a SPEAR! and hooks the leg - crowd counts but nobody's there...finally Chioda comes rushing in and counts 1, 2, but no. Coming back live on tape, Edge punches to get out, off the ropes, Guerrero ducks, but Edge slips under and hits the half nelson faceplant! Cover by Edge - 1, 2, NO! Edge pulls himself up in the corner - to the second rope, but took too long. Guerrero with a right hand - climbs up for a FRANKENSTEINER - press - 1, 2, NO!! Guerrero laces the fingers and attacks the elbow - elbow, elbow, elbow, right to the face, right, right, runs the ropes, goes for ANOTHER Frankensteiner off the springboard but Edge stops him and POWERBOMBS him down! That'll definitely get a Subway Replay. Edge crawls to the ropes and, fed on by the crowd, rolls outside and looks for his friend the ladder. Ladder in, Edge in. But Guerrero dropkicks the ladder into Edge! Guerrero rolls outside and produces a SECOND ladder. Guerrero back inside - Cole notes that everybody in the Arena is either standing or on the edge of their seat. Edge brought to his feet - elbow to the back of the head, forearm, snap back elbow and Edge falls across a ladder. Guerrero sandwiches him by putting the second ladder on top - outside - trademark springboard senton back in and onto the pile! That may have hurt Guerrero as much as Edge - well, okay, maybe Edge a TINY bit more. Eddie covers Edge, still on the ladder - 1, 2, no rope for his leg but he DOES get the shoulder off the ladder! Another replay fills the entire screen. When we come back, Guerrero has a ladder set up in a corner - Eddie on the top rope and now climbing the ladder...but Edge is up and climbing the other side of the ladder! Guerrero right, Edge right, right, Guerrero teetering, Edge right, Guerrero right, EDGE teetering...Guerrero grabs Edge's head and RAMS it into the top of the ladder - four times! Eddie wants a sunset flip OVER the ladder - and it turns into a SUPERBOMB! Guerrero crawls over to Edge and drapes an arm over him - 1, 2, SHOULDER UP!! Subway Replay, two angles - owch. Guerrero folds the ladder and places it against the corner - and rams Edge into it. Edge laying against the ladder and Guerrero winds up...but runs into a back body drop INTO and almost THROUGH the ladder!! The ladder narrowly misses Guerrero on the way down, and Chioda moves it aside. Another replay fills the screen. Edge has his own ladder when we come back - now THAT one stands in a corner. Edge climbs up...to do what? I guess to get a kidney shot from behind - Guerrero outside, back in, climbing the opposite side of the ladder, right, right, Edge to the body, right, right - head to the top of the ladder four times...Guerrero now dragged off the ladder and standing on the top rope - Edge pulls him up - EDGECUTION from the ladder!! Cover - 1, 2, 3! (8:00 + 8:41?) Guerrero's forehead shows the effects. Tazz: "This sure as hell ain't no Survivor!" Replay of the Edgecution. Edge limps up the ramp - he'll be feeling this one a while. Cole: "Tonight stopped being about who is right and who is wrong - it became about two men wanting to prove who the better man is - for YOUR entertainment. And that, my friends, is the credo of SmackDown!" After Edge is gone, they play Guerrero's music - and he gets a Standing O from the San Diego faithful as well! One more Replay of the Edgecution! Wow, they usually don't show the loser's exit as part of the show - but I'm glad they did. Great match.

Billy & Chuck def. Jamie Noble & Tajiri

Awesome match. Knoble & Tajiri got most of the offense & Billy sold the legwork like a *KING* (even after the match).

CRZ recap:

 

BILLY & CHUCK (with Torrie Samuda) v. JAMIE NOBLE & TAJIRI (with Nidia) - they hit the ring and it's on - Chuck has no problems with Tajiri until getting the low bridge - referee "Blind" Mike Sparks hits the ring and rings the bell. Tajiri with an overhead kick to the back of Billy's head to turn it round for he and Noble - into the ropes, double gutshot, double kick to the back of the leg to bring him to his knees - double dropkick sandwich to the head coming up but Chuck ankles Tajiri, and Billy manages a tilt-a-whirl slam on Noble - then removes his shirt in a ruggedly heterosexually manly way! Noble dropkicks the knee, though. Tag to Tajiri - free kick on the leg. Onsale crawl. Kick by Tajiri. Another big kick. Torrie is STILL up on the apron, looking like a lost lamb. Into the ropes is reversed, but Tajiri manages a handspring elbow out of the whip. Billy's swing is ducked, Tajiri with a superkick - 1, 2, no! Torrie is FINALLY down to the floor - cameraman must have told her. Tajiri stomp, tag. Pulling him by the leg - Subway Replay as Noble dropkicks the back of the bad leg. Leg across the bottom rope - and Noble springs into the buttdrop. Wants a second, but Billy puts up his good leg, then launches him over the top to the floor! Chuck really wants the (straight) tag...but Tajiri's going to come in as we watch the Subway Replay - Tajiri stomps away as Noble wraps the bad leg around the ringpost - twice! Noble back in - stomp, stomp, stomp. Pulls him away from the corner, grabs the leg and sits on it, Potsie - here comes a modified figure four - Billy reaches for the ropes but Noble won't let him. Torrie leads some synchronised clapping from ringside - shoulders are down - 1, 2, shoulder up! Noble with a slap - that woke him up - Billy with a right, right and breaks the hold. Noble up, Billy up, right, right, into the ropes is reversed and Billy collapses when his leg fails him. Noble plays to the crowd. Stomp, stomp, stomp on the knee every time. Sparks distracted so Tajiri does a little work of his own on that knee. Noble elbowdrops the knee. Again. Noble cranks the knee - shoulders down - 1, 2, no. "We want Chuck!" chant. Billy manages to use his good knee across Noble's head a few times to break the hold - back to his feet - reverses the whip but Noble reverses back, kicking the knee. Off the ropes - Billy counters into a flapjack! Crowd claps again...Billy crawls to the corner...or tries, anyway - tag to Tajiri - hot tag to Chuck! Chuck clothesline, right hand, Noble in and ducks - but gets caught in a belly-to-belly off the double underhook! Jungle Kick for Tajiri, kick for Noble to take him outside, Chuck removes HIS shirt (he's straight!), hoists up Tajiri - looks like Code Red coming up as Billy struggles to the top - and there it is! 1, 2, 3! (6:24) Do Billy & Chuck have new music? Did you notice the OMG TAG ROPES weren't there tonight? Nidia's not done, spitting at Torrie - Torrie's out - chop, chop, Nidia rolled in the ring - duck sa swing, gutshot, Nidia falls over the bottom rope...Billy holds her hands so Torrie can...spank her. Later, others will be spanking, themselves!
