the One and Only Smackdown thread 6/24

[Guest Trivia247]

Mordechai and Kenzo could Team up as KamiKazi the Divine Wind...

 

since their individual Pushes look so similar.

Well....Kenzo can't be put over BILLY GUNN, while Mordecai is set to squash Hardocre Holly.

 

Mordecai gets +10 pts. for being able to squash someone no one likes.

Well I saw the tail end of smackdown and I guess other then a decent battle royal I missed the crap and saw only mostly good.

 

Angle's presence and interference saved the terribly slow Eddie/Reigns match.Reigns is a green hoss but he looked better then Nathan Jones,Tyson Tomko and the guy who kept hurting stevie richards.

 

RVD/Dupree was pretty good for a tv match and RVD for the first time since the christian ladder match seemed somewhat motivated to me.If Dupree starts doing chops and getting press slammed of the tope rope i'm gonna cry

BookerT was cracking me up.

 

Taker/Cena I didn't like as much as the previous match but it was given more time and alot better then Eugene/HHH.

 

So far for bash I wouldn't mind seeing the 3 title matches plus the handicap match if their given enough time.

Hey I am back.

 

I'm really drunk.

 

The first hour of Smackdown got a 3/5 from me.

 

What happened in the second hour? And in case you're wondering, I don't read spoilers, because those that read spoilers like to generate their own opinions before the show takes place, and that's not fair.

 

I do know:

 

- AWESOME Cruiserweight Battle Royal

- AWESOME opening exchange between Angle and Cena.

- I liked Sable and Torrie's exchange excempt for Torrie's corny reply.

- Mordecai looks like a fucking dweeb and his fans are idiots.

- Kenzo looks like shit and is just "Meng 2004" in my opinion.

- Eddie Vs. Luther was terrible. Protect Horshu, OMG, have a run in.

 

1st Hour = 3/5, barely.

HOW is he green? He's been wrestling for 7-8 years.

I guess no one gets that Noble's tights are supposed to be like the General Lee. He should come out in a '69 Charger R/T. Everyone else seems to have some kind of transportation when they come out, even Kenzo...

I had to wait for the NBA draft to get through its first round before SD! started, then at midnight, with the last match still to go, I started watching and taping the first episode of Angel, because I'm a broke/cheap bugger.

 

For some reason, I had this fleeting hope that London would win the battle royal. It was nice to see Eddie bust out the old cheating shtick that got him so over in the first place.

 

The main event kept me interested, and was quite entertaining for what it was: 25 minutes of Taker beating up Cena and not selling anything until the end. So we have a spot where Taker goes knees first into the ring steps. Completely unaffected, save for a cut on the arm Cole makes a big deal about, he takes out Cena, then gives him a leg drop on the side of the ring. Yoinks. Also good to see that 11 months, and booming popularity later, Cena can still not be put over.

 

Complaints notwithstanding, the show was an improvement.

The main event was surprisingly good and it was all Taker's doing. It was a bit slow in the middle, but the storyline and build were fantastic.

 

I thought it put over Cena really strongly. The story was pretty clearly that Cena was outlasting Undertaker, and UT was getting frustrated and gassed up and had to cheat to win.

Don't worry, I got it back when he debuted them on Velocity ~1 month ago.

They really shouldn't have blown the Cena/Undertaker match on a one-night storyline. That had potential to be a really big match by, say, Unforgiven.

[Guest Anglesault]

I missed the whole beginning of the show. Please tell me Angle and Cena weren't rapping at each other again. Please.

 

Eh, I guess in thw long run, it doesn't matter. The longer they continue to run a bad Angle/Cena program, the longer I can blow off Smackdown for baseball.

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

Angle did, in fact, bust out his MAD RAPPIN' SKILLZ, YO~

[notJames 0]

The Cruiserweight Battle Royal was a golden opportunity to add at least one more match onto the PPV, and they blew it. They could have easily had one or more of the eliminations lead into a mini-feud between two of the combatants, and then have them fight at GAB. Nunzio and London are a perfect example. Nunzio cheated to eliminate London, so naturally, London wants revenge. Clean and simple. Johnny the Bull can provide outside interference. Hell, have Kidman be London's second, and there's four relatively talented guys on the PPV with a purpose. Instead, we get the New New Midnight Express in singles matches against the Green Goblins for no good reason.

 

And where the fuck are the former tag champs Homo Superior? Don't tell me they'll be pulling Heat duty. In fact, they'll probably have Rico job to Jindrak before the PPV.

 

Sigh. I think I'll stay home on Sunday.

It was just Cena talking normally while Angle claimed to have a rap of his own. I haven't heard an actual Cena rap in a while, but I haven't been paying too close of attention.

Rico's out with an injury, I beleive.

Dorky white guy tries to be "phat" again?

 

You would think that after running it that way last year and it getting almost universally panned and doing nothing for ratings, they'd try another angle.

Replace "Rico" with "Spike Dudley" then. No big loss.

I mean green in that he hasn't been in alot of WWE TV matches.

[Guest TheZsaszHorsemen]

Well, SD! is on the first step to recovery - NEW FACES.

 

Oh and UT/Cena - Free TV Match of the Week BAY-BEE.
