Smackdown

 

*Smackdown opens with Rey Mysterio coming out and saying he deserves his title shot at Wrestlemania 22. He calls out Randy Orton, but WWE World champion Kurt Angle comes out instead. Angle says that his beef isn't with Rey but with Orton, and says that nobody can defeat him. Orton comes out and says that they both suck. He says he can defeat them both, but will wait until Wrestlemania to do it. Teddy Long comes out and forces Orton to leave. He announces Angle vs. Rey as the main event tonight.

*WWE United States champion Chris Benoit defeated Road Warrior Animal with a crossface.

*The Mexicools defeated Jamie Noble and Kid Kash.

 

*They did a vignette where Booker T was searching for Sharmell but found nothing but worms.

 

*Booker was looking for Sharmell but every door had worms around it. When he finally found Sharmell, she was in a room on a stool surrounded by tons of worms. Boogeyman appeared and laughed.

 

*WWE World champion Kurt Angle defeated Rey Mysterio after Mysterio went for the 619 but was caught and pulled into the ring with an AnkleLock and Rey tapped. Orton hit the ring and he and Angle went at it. The show ended with Angle hitting the Angleslam and locking the Ankle Lock on Orton

Seeing the MNM mention makes me sad that MNM won't be at Mania.

 

They could have bumped up something for their entrance for Mania if they were to appear.

Teddy Long comes out and...announces Angle vs. Rey as the main event tonight.

And the logic behind giving away a Smackdown PPV main event, possibly one of the only ones they'll get out of Rey's probable title reign, is...?

[MillenniumMan831 0]

No one will remember it in 2 months.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

No one will remember it in 2 months.

Even if anybody did, Cole and Tazz would still say it was their first ever singles meeting.

It'll be a short match with a DQ ending. Not like they've never had a high-profile singles match before, either.

*The Gymini defeated Paul London & Brian Kendrick.

 

So I'm guessing that rumoured tag title run for Spanky and London is a slowly built one...

Or this result will be used to make the former penises the number one contenders and Spanky and London are just transitioning the belts from MNM.

Shit, where are they going with Tatanka here? He's getting a push for what reason?

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

I gotta stop posing about the amazing race in other threads.

[BorneAgain 0]

As an aside, why precisely is Boogeyman a face again? He terrorizes people who've done him no harm, has shoved worms down an innocent woman's skirt, and has kidnapped another wrestler's wife. If this were the 80s he'd be one of the biggest heels on the roster.

If this were the 80s, he'd be in the main event of Wrestlemania getting squashed by Hulk Hogan.

Lashley winning a match with a spear? Seriously, when is the WWE just going to change his name to Blackberg?

[BorneAgain 0]

Lashley winning a match with a spear? Seriously, when is the WWE just going to change his name to Blackberg?

 

Right after they start calling him "The Next Great Thing" and have Tazz and Cole say "Here Comes the Fury" when he comes out.

You were saying?

 

This finish is mind numbingly stupid. It's standard WWE policy to fuck things up, but this takes things to a new level of stupidity.

[Hawk 34 0]

Really, at this point...Angle has to win the fucking match. Carry it until Batista returns and build up to that mega-match at Summer-Slam. Throw Undertaker pt. 3, the novelty Benoit short program and that should hold things over for Batista's return in June.

 

Mysterio, enough was a stretch as world champion but when he jobs out this much and looks like the ultimate pussy, he really can't be taken seriously. Orton, is Orton.

[Guest Dam(o)nYankees]

Orton in the anklelock at the end of the show is an AWFUL sign

[Lil' Bitch 0]

I'm still hoping MNM Vs. The Mexicools gets added to the Mania card at the last minute seeing how RAW has 6 matches and Smackdown only has 4. Including the Interpromotional MITB match, that's 11 matches.

[UZI Suicide 0]

SHIT.. I doubt Angle's winning now. Would they really have him go over both guys on Smackdown, then win at 'Mania too?

[Hawk 34 0]

Orton in the anklelock at the end of the show is an AWFUL sign

 

The whole thing starting in January was an awful sign. Jesus, Batista's injury REALLY fucked things up.

 

It was probably going to be Batista/Orton, Rey/Benoit(Eddie tribute match) and Angle/Taker.

[BorneAgain 0]

I'm starting to think I was too hasty with the "Cant be worse than Raw" qualifier.

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

SHIT.. I doubt Angle's winning now. Would they really have him go over both guys on Smackdown, then win at 'Mania too?

Logic says no, but logic also says you don't have a WM main eventer tapping out clean on the last TV before the event.

Hopefully, they added a #1 contendership for Mania in the Mexi-Cools/Kash and Noble match.

 

I doubt they will even get the heat treatment.

I was still holding out hope that theyd give it to Rey and demote Orton to the US title scene

[cabbageboy 0]

Orton may have taken a token ankle lock at the end, but Rey is the guy who actually tapped. I'm thinking Rey will actually win that match at WM, but man he will have literally zero credibility with a world title.

 

Just wondering but are they even attempting to make any of the 3 SD guys look like a threat for the MITB? I mean on Raw we had a 3 way promo with Flair/Shelton/RVD expressing the desire to win it....on SD the 3 guys are in a pointless 6 man tag.

I really doubt they had confidence in doing Rey/Batista as the WM match. Rey, is more realistically capable of winning a 3 way then a straight up match. The good thing would've been, seeing if they were stupid enough to keep up with the "Doin it for Eddie" stuff, when the last weeks of Eddie's life, Batista and Eddie were on screen(and off-screen, according to reports) close buddies.

 

Orton/Benoit would have worked as well. Of course, they choose the worst avenue.

I meant now. I was hoping that in the Orton/Angle/Orton match, I wante Rey to pin Orton get the belt and for Orton to leave the title scene. It looks more than ever that Orton is winning.

[Just John 0]

Well, I just got back from the show, and it was way better than Raw.

 

The finish to the Mexicools match needs to be seen. Super Crazy hits a top rope C4 on Kash.

 

UT/Henry was the dark ME, I guess. I thought it was actually on the show because Cole and Tazz were still out there. UT won with the chokeslam if anyone cares.

[Just John 0]

*Lashley & Tatanka & Matt Hardy defeated Finlay & MNM. MNM hit the Snapshot on Tatanka but Lashley hit a spear and scored the pin

 

Oh, and this is wrong. The face team won when Matt hit the TOF on Mercury.

[Guest Princess Leena]

Shit. This virtually guarantees Angle isn't keeping the belt.

 

Please win, Orton.

 

The last thing I want to see is Rey winning the title, pointing to the sky for 20 minutes and 1000 Eddie mentions. And then the obvious title loss in a couple months, and quick shift down the card for eternity.
