Smackdown Spoilers for the 5/5 Airing

--Smackdown ratings continue to fall as last night's show was down to a 2.3 on the fast nationals, falling to where it now is only beating WB.

 

Ouch!

 

How low were Thunder's ratings in the dying days of WCW? I don't see Smackdown lasting too much longer as a show if it keeps on pulling those kind of ratings in.

I loved Benoit/Finlay. The beginning was a bit slow but it worked into the match, I love how Finlay fought EVERYTHING Benoit threw at him, including trying to elbow out of the Germans.

Generally just below a 2.0 if I remember correctly.

Benoit–Finlay was superb; I might order the PPV just to see it again.

I loved that also. We don't see nearly enough of that sort of thing in American wrestling.

I like how Burchill's undefeated streak and the debut of his new valet ends with a powerslam from Road Warrior Animal. Seriously, what the fuck?

I actually thought he must have been injured at first and just not been able to kick out of the pin. It was such a weird result.
