SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 This week, Friday Night SmackDown will make its final stop before the Royal Rumble. The last three times that Chris Benoit and Randy Orton have squared off, the United States Championship was on the line. Substituting for Booker T in the Best-of-7 Series, the Legend Killer lost twice to the Rabid Wolverine before winning the seventh and deciding match to give Booker the gold. This week, there will be nothing but pride on the line when Orton and Benoit lock horns once again, this time in a No Holds Barred, One Fall to a Finish Match. Can the Legend Killer make it two in a row, or will The Rabid Wolverine get back to his winning ways? Last week, Mark Henry defeated Rey Mysterio to become No. 1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship and earn the opportunity to face Kurt Angle for the gold at the Royal Rumble. Later in the night, Henry destroyed the new World Heavyweight Champion, and Angle’s former manager Daivari introduced the World’s Strongest Man as his new protégé. This week, Kurt Angle will battle in a "Champion vs. Champions" Handicap Match when he faces MNM. Will this wrestling machine gain crucial momentum heading into his World Heavyweight Championship defense at the Royal Rumble, or will the WWE Tag Team Champions boast a huge win before picking their Royal Rumble Match numbers? Find out this Friday. Also, Theodore Long announced that JBL will meet The Boogeyman at the Royal Rumble. In recent weeks, The Boogeyman has haunted JBL, and cost him a match against Lashley last week. Will he continue to spook JBL and Jillian heading into the Rumble, or will the “Wrestling God” and his image consultant figure out a way to combat the bizarre newcomer? Plus, will Long announce any new participants to represent SmackDown in the Royal Rumble Match? Find out all this and more Friday night at 8/7 CT on UPN.

Downhome 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 Wow, they edited out the entire long speech by Rey Mysterio that he gave right before Mark Henry came out, where he went on, and on about Eddie being on his side, and dedicating his RR win to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 How long ago was it when Mark Henry won the Strongest Man competition? Didn't he win the one Schwarzennegger was attached to just like 2 or 3 years ago? I remember them showing footage of it on Raw at the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 Wow, took longer than I thought for them to put an Eddy shirt out. Rey was wearing an Eddy shirt I hadn't seen before (had his face and 1968-2005 on the front, something on the back..). If its been out for a while, then I hadnt seen it.

SuperJerk 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 I'd say that's a pretty sure sign of how seriously the WWE takes the idea of Rey getting a world title. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Downhome 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2006 That shirt has been on TV for weeks and is the #1 selling WWE Shop item, and has been for quite some time now. It came out not too long after Eddie died, and they said that all the money made off of the shirts would go to Eddie's family. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
