Funaki Brian Kendrick and Paul London def. two jobbers Simon Dean promo mid-ring, insults Springfield crowd, talks about how he hates XMas, bah humbug. -Sorry I didn't catch the names of these guys, as Tony Chimmel was tough to hear over the hot crowd early on. Smackdown The Boogeyman def. Nunzio (w/ Vito) in a major squash Randy Orton is shown back stage, talking to his father, Bob Orton, who recommends that he see a shrink. Orton obliges, and is next shown laying on a couch talking to the shrink, an older man with a beard. The shrink asks Randy what he's got to prove and that this 'Hell in a Cell' is a matter of life and death. Randy thinks about what the shrink said. Batista is shown backstage, and Melina enters and begins rubbing his shoulder and chest. She kisses him, and Batista grabs her on his lap, as she grinds him, and they make out as the screen fades to black. Screen comes back and Melinda is shown fixing her hair, insinuating that Batista tapped that ass, and says something to the effect of asking Batista if the match with him and Rey tonight against her MNM is off. He laughs and tells her he's going to 'kill those guys.' Kid Kash def. Super Crazy with brainbuster. After the match, Kash attempts another brainbuster on a chair, but Juventud and Psychosis save Crazy. Batista and Rey Mysterio def. MNM to win the tag team titles. Rey played the victim the entire match, made the hot tag to Batista, who finished off I belive Johnny Nitro for the win. Bobby Lashley def. Paul Burchill in a squash. Randy Orton is shown backstage talking to his father, and tells him that he has made a decision and will share it with the crowd later tonight.

LOD when Heidenrech was pinned with a top rop legdrop. JBL comes out to do commentary for the Matt Hardy/Booker T match. Booker T def. Matt Hardy after JBL gave Hardy a clothesline from hell on the outside when Sharmell distracted the ref. (Sharmell came out with a broom, signifying the sweep on Benoit. Note, there was NO mention of Benoit on the show. Very pissed off about that). Randy Orton comes out and announces his retirement. He says that he has killed many legends, and has since realized that nobody can kill the legend of the Undertaker. He says that he is going to kill another legend tonight, his own. Cue Undertaker music. Druids come out, followed by the Taker. Crowd went NUTS live. Taker walks into the ring, druids leave, except for one, who holds up an urn. Taker looks towards Druid, while Orton blindsides Taker and kicks him in the balls. Orton attacks Taker with an RKO, yet Taker gets up. Orton grabs a chair and destroys Taker, yet he gets up once again. The druid takes off the hood and its Bob Orton. Randy grabs the urn from his daddy and nails Taker, who this time does not get up. Randy grabs the microphone and tells Taker he'll see him this Sunday at Armageddon. End of show. Edited December 14, 2005 by BorneAgain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2005 What is the point of giving Batista and Rey the tag titles? Are MNM going to Raw? And if so...WHY? Because Melina wants the women's belt? MNM already got destroyed by Kane/TBS *once*, I doubt they want to try their hand again, because going by the characters of the Raw Tag Champs, they are so physically dominating as a team that it would take nothing sort of guns and/or roses to defeat them. Who will Batista/Rey lose them too...and why? Unless MNM get them back on the first Smackdown after Xmas, then it makes no sense for them to even have them, UNLESS Rey is going to somehow turn heel and try to challenge for the World Title.

I'd assume Regal would be the Burchill squashee. OK, that's not too bad a card. I hope they at least announce some of the undercard on SmackDown! instead of just waiting until the Armageddon preshow.

BorneAgain 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2005 Eh, if they really wanted to fill it out, just stick everybody else in some battle royal to decide, oh, the number 30 spot in the rumble maybe. If you want to push Lashley, just have him win it, or if he's got a match against somebody like Holly in a squash, just have Boogeyman win it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest clockworkraven Report post Posted December 14, 2005 Pimptista. Sweet. MNM vs The Mexicools is now there to show that SD actually has a tag division. The best thing about Undertaker feuds is how he'll sell someone's finisher at one point, then completely ignore it at another time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hass of Pain Report post Posted December 14, 2005 Almost positive the Sylvan/Ken Doan match and the Doug Basham match were the dark matches. I want to cry for poor Doug Basham. When he starts 2006 in Louisville, it will be the NINTH different year he has spent developing in OVW ('98,99,00,01,02,03,04,05,06) and he's still working dark matches with the company not behind him in the least bit despite being one of the most polished wrestlers OVW has ever produced.

Foshi 0 Report post Posted December 14, 2005 Awesome, so now Mexicools vs. MNM at Armageddon means nothing at all. Good booking there. You know if you want to be technical, and I'm sure WWF doesn't want to be, the Mexicools won a battle royal to determine the #1 contender and not who faces MNM. So to be fair, they should technically face Batista and Rey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully, it's not related to his status with WWE. Maybe they decided not to use him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
