Looks like another completly throwaway show. Nothing looks good.

That looks like a solid show to me. But I'm a Smackdown! mark.

 

edit: Let me explain this furthermore.

1) RVD, Rey, and Torrie vs. Kenzo, Dupree, and Hiroko -This was set up last week because of the Kenzo/Torrie stuff, which I loved. I love the Kenzo character.

2) Charlie Haas vs. Jesus

Charlie's getting Smackdown! time, so that's good, and Jesus is getting pushed while Carlito heals. I hope Jesus is booked strongly, just like Carlito, so that it looks like you have two legitamte badass Carribean equals.

3) Booker T and Eddie vs. Bashams -The Bashams aligned themselves with JBL last week on Smackdown!, costing Eddie and Booker their match. Eddie/Booker teaming has tension backstage too, which is good. Instead of, OK we're both faces. They both want the WWE championship, and they were both screwed out of it.

4) Kurt Angle Invitational I don't like this. Cody Steele sucked, wasn't from Rochester, and they missed the perfect chance to debut Capatelli. Hasn't he been ready for a main roster for a while? He was going to come in and beat Chavo before Holly had his way with him again on a house show... putting the belt on Jaqi.

5) Undertaker vs. JBL and Orlando Jordan -Taker's in the title hunt too, he's booked strongly so he looks like the better side even though it's two on one. Plus Taker came out and chokeslammed both Orlando and JBL to end the show, and JBL's promos as of late have been ridicuously good. I wish they aired his on Thanskgiving. Too controversial I guess.

And to boot, it's a rare Taker wrestling appearence on Smackdown! so that's a strong draw.

I want to see London vs. Akio.

Velocity:

 

1) Chavo vs. Kidman

They're wasting this on VELOCITY?! This is an Armageddon match here.

 

The only excuse I can think of for such bad booking would be to have a kidman vs. London match (which I doubt with the way London's being handled) or Kidman vs. Chavo vs. London at Armageddon. Even if they do one of those, though, they could still at least give this time on Smackdown.
