UPDATE: Got a full report from pwinsider.com

 

We are live in Washington, DC with Smackdown spoilers before Raw airs.

 

Matt Hardy and Animal vs. MNM.

 

Hardy with twist of fate, two count. Animal kicks Johnny Nitro out and hits the Doomsday Device. It's broken up. MNM win by pinfall.

 

Animal turned on Hardy, blaming him for the loss and proceeds to kick his ass outside the ring before returning to the back. Then, he came back and worked on Matt's knee against the ring post. He went to the back to a chant of "You suck!"

 

Randy Orton b Super Crazy in a good match

 

The building is packed to the top. Some tix were available at box office today. Nothing is tarped off.

 

There was a Hall of Fame video with Bret Hart and Eddie Guerrero. There were lots of Eddie chants.

 

Finlay vs. Lashley was next. Tony Chimmel called him Bobby Lashley. Finlay gets pissed and throws chairs in the ring. Lashley was DQ'd after hitting Finlay with a chair. It turned into an all-out brawl, and refs and security come out. Lashley kicked the snot out of Finlay, up through the aisle as well. Security couldn't break them apart. The crowd was HOT for

Lashley.

 

William Regal put Paul Birchall down for being a pirate. Paul's first match is next week.

 

Benoit vs. JBL signed for Wrestlemania

 

Now it's time for Kurt Angle vs. Undertaker.

 

There was not a big ovation for Angle. HUGE pop for Taker. It started with Angle hitting punches in the corner. Taker came back with punches of his own. Taker chased the ref out of the ring. Angle worked Taker's arm. Taker went for old school and Angle countered with a knock off the rope. There there were chants of "Let's go Angle/Let's go Taker". Angle hit 7 punches to head. Taker tried for The Last Ride, but couldn't get it. He knocked Angle off apron. Outside the ring now, Angle was thrown into steps. There was great back and forth action all the way through.

 

Then, Taker called for the Tombstone but Mark Henry ran in for a DQ on Angle. Henry continued to beat on Taker over at the Spanish Announce Table. The crowd booed big time. Angle went to the back. Henry got major boos. People were legitimately pissed at the DQ finish. It was such a great match but a lame ass finish.

Matt Hardy & Animal b MNM in a non-title match, but then Animal turned on Hardy after the match

 

Oh yes, the heel Animal vs. Matt Hardy feud that the wrestling world has been clamoring for is finally coming to fruition.

I took some notes tonight. The T's were super over, so was Boogeyman. Tatanka, no so much, but not heatless or anything. Approximately three dozen chops in the 8 minute match.

 

 

Orton and Super Crazy was okay. I think orton has new music.

 

MNM match was okay, went about ten minutes. Finish was a clusterfuck from my vantage point. may have looked better by ringside. They were going for the Device, Matt got his leg clipped, and Animal appeared to fall off the top rope do to this leg clipping.

 

In other news, the Matt Hardy character is SUCH a loser.

 

Lashley was very over, and the Finlay postmatch brawl was great. Match was two minutes, if that.

 

The main started slow and got much better. They incorporated alot of spots from the last match in. Crowd was pissed at the finish. And "beat into the Spanish announce table isn't totally accurate. Henry laid Taker on the American table, stood on the Spanish table and jumped across and splashed him.

Good news: Benoit / JBL for the US title (FINALLY!) for Mania!

 

Bad news: Undertaker / Henry for Mania :spank:

Okay, Benoit-JBL is actually something I want to see at WM. As for Taker-Henry, yikes. I wouldn't even mind it as much had they not done it a few weeks ago on Smackdown, especially since Taker "did the impossible" by Tombstoning him.

I'm guaran-damn-teeing that they will have a spot in Henry/Taker where Taker slaps the triangle choke on Henry only to be picked up and powerbombed to break the hold. Taker's hung out with Matt Hughes so it's only logical that he'd rip off one of his more famous fights.

In a way, Taker and Angle did that spot years ago.

I'm surprised Undertaker hasn't politcked his way out of the match knowing how awful its going to be. Much like Heidenreich from SSeries a few years ago.

So is Animal going to be Melina's new hired muscle/gut?

 

Or just the start of a crappy feud?

If this ends in Animal beating Matt clean at Mania, I will smile.
