CENA VS. BOOKER: MATCH NO. 2

Aug. 26, 2004

 

Several years ago, Booker T competed against Chris Benoit in a memorable best-of-seven series while working for WCW. The series of matches put Booker T on the map as a solid force in the singles ranks of sports entertainment. Now, already an established Superstar, Booker T fights to keep his United States Championship in a similar style of matches. It's a best-of-five series against John Cena. Unfortunately for Booker, he already trails 1-0, as Cena picked up the thrilling opening victory at SummerSlam. Can Booker even the score this week on SmackDown!? Or will Cena carry his SummerSlam momentum over the U.S. Champion? Find out this week on SmackDown! on UPN.

 

The most prolific manager of WWE Champions in history, Paul Heyman, has been warning SmackDown! viewers for weeks. Now the time has finally come, as Heidenreich will be at SmackDown!

 

 

Heyman has been able to lead such names as Kurt Angle, Big Show and Brock Lesnar to the top of the SmackDown! mountain. It will be interesting to see if he can do the same with Heidenreich. The big man's journey begins on SmackDown! Thursday night. Can the big man live up to the hype? Don't miss SmackDown! to find out.

 

In action this week, Rob Van Dam will take on Kenzo Suzuki.

 

In other action, two great cruiserweights will go at it when Chavo Guerrero takes on one-half of the WWE Tag Team Champions Billy Kidman.

 

Last week, Kurt Angle defaced one of Eddie Guerrero's precious low riders. Undoubtedly, Guerrero will be looking for revenge. Will Angle get what many feel he has coming to him? Find out on SmackDown!

 

All this and more this week on SmackDown! on UPN at 8/7 CT.

When this is the only wrestling you can see at all during the week, you'll learn to either give up wrestling or love Smackdown. I love wrestling too much to completely give it up, so I'm watching Smackdown.

And since this show probably will have more actual matches than Raw did this past week, that's already a proverbial feather in the cap of Smackdown.

Anyone in Canada see Kenzo's reasoning for attacking RVD last week? Hilarious.

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

I wonder how they'll handle the end of the Chavo/Kidman match, what with Chavo getting KNOCKED THE FUCK OUT by the SSP.

I was only half-paying attention to the first half hour or so, but I did see the SSP on Chavo. His head got creamed by Kidman's thigh.

 

Edit: Oh wait, I did hear that. It was pretty good.

I still don't understand why Eddie is so mad about his lowrider considering he gets a new one EVERY FUCKING SHOW.

 

And do we really need a scoreboard for the Booker/Cena deal?

[haVoc 0]

I remember when I use to get excited for an Eddie promo.

Maybe the one that Kurt painted was his favorite of them all?

[AnonymousBroccoli 0]

Interesting to hold Booker vs. Cena #3 in Sydney.

[haVoc 0]

Eddie's acting can be really cheesy at times.

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

Geez....Kenzo should never cut a promo again.

[Conspiracy_Victim 0]

THAT is Kenzo's reason? Holy crap are the writers even TRYING?

 

Never mind, I know the answer to that already.

[haVoc 0]

Um, I thought Kenzo couldn't speak or understand english?

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Um, I thought Kenzo couldn't speak or understand english?

Cue cards.

[MillenniumMan831 0]

What was Kenzo's reason? I wasn't paying any attention.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

RVD survived the Pocky Claw!

[AnonymousBroccoli 0]

What was Kenzo's reason? I wasn't paying any attention.

Something about RVD driving a Japanese car, and if he loved America like Kenzo does, he'd buy American.

[haVoc 0]

Management can burn in Hell for taking away the french tickler.

RVD survived the Pocky Claw!

Pocky... heh. Oddly fitting.

 

btw, does Kenzo have some shitty chops or what?

[LaParkaYourCar 0]

Teddy Long cracks me up.

 

"They don't make them like this anymore!"

 

Isn't that a pretty new one?

[Exslade ZX 0]

Heh...as a JBL hater...I'll just say...I love JBL.

 

Lmao...really, I don't like JBL as champ..Im one of those that was highly pissed when I saw him win..but now he's grown on me. I can't help but laugh at his segments. And I may be becoming an Orlando fan...just because his voice makes me 'giggle'.

 

"Right here in..!"...?

 

"Fresno"

 

"Fresno...Fresno!?!"

 

"I know."

 

[Conspiracy_Victim 0]

Oooohhhh Chavo.. Hope you took some aspirin before the match.

I think he said it was a 1989.

Tazz saying he never heard of a championship being defended by someone other than the champion...

 

Has he completely forgotten about ECW, when Richards defended for Raven?

Well, he does seem to have gaps in his memory at times...

 

Question: When did Kidman and London steal AJ Styles entrance gear?

Few weeks ago.

 

I've been calling them Strike Force '04.

ECW? What's that? Raven was a champion? I thought the first time he ever stepped into a ring he was Johnny Polo or chipping Moppy. Richards, you mean STEVEN Richards? Defending a major championship? AHAHAHAHA you slay me sometimes Chris.

[haVoc 0]

He's out cold!

[Conspiracy_Victim 0]

Yeah Kidman caught Chavo right on the temple with his knee. Not nice.
