Twisted Intestine 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2005 Farewell to Thursdays September 1, 2005 SmackDown!’s last show on Thursday night before moving to Fridays on Sept. 9 will be a huge event. Two major matches have been announced as Randy Orton, who has been on quite a roll since defeating Undertaker at SummerSlam, will take on Rey Mysterio, who now has full custody of Dominick. Meanwhile, in a SummerSlam rematch, United States Champion Chris Benoit will face Orlando Jordan. It took Benoit a mere 25 seconds to defeat Jordan at SummerSlam. With JBL scheduled to get his SummerSlam rematch with World Heavyweight Champion Batista on Sept. 9, anything is possible. Also, will network executive Palmer Canon continue to meddle with General Manager’s Theodore Long’s work? Plus, could we see more of Mr. Kennedy, who seems to enjoy ring announcing as much as he does wrestling? Don’t miss the last SmackDown! on Thursday night on UPN (8/7) CT.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2005 Surely this Jordan humiliation will lead to JBL firing him as Chief of Staff....right? Maybe then Benoit can take him under his wing and teach him to not be quite as big of a jobber. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
