edit: What were likely fake spoilers from the torch.

 

Here's a link if you want to check them out.

 

edit: And it would seem those are fake as the Torch has taken those down as well.

I would say the DVDVR spoilers are most likely real cause WWE.com is advertising Angle vs. Mysterio for the show.

Got it. I'll edit the post.

[UZI Suicide 0]

I love how they're pushing a CHOP as such a devastating move.

[fisticuffs 0]

It'd be great if Booker would come to the ring and rap "King of Rock", like the Jimmy King character in the all-time smash hit "Ready to Rumble".

[Enigma 0]

PWInsider has reported that Rey Mysterio vs. Sabu for the World Heavyweight Championship was announced for One Night Stand at the Smackdown tapings.

 

According to PWI, this will be the first time these two have ever wrestled each other.

More detailed spoilers from Meltzer:

 

Dark Match; Sylverster Turkay d. Scotty 2 Hotty with some awful looking

front chokeslam. Scotty was mad over.

 

Velocity

 

1) Tatanka d. John Williams with a spinning side slam. Ohhhh boy

T-T-T-T-T-Tatanka was ovvvvvver. He's new music is god-awful, that and the

fact that he can't do the war dance anymore really hurt my markout

experience.

 

2) Gunner Scott d. Simon Dean with a overhead belly to belly. Don't quite

know what to make of Gunner they kind of need to give him some sort of

personality because everyone was like 'hmmmm'

 

3) Mexicools d. London/Kendrick (non-title) when Psicosis rolled up

Kendrick, grabbed the tights and held the rope. Super Crazy is a great

performer he kept the crowd into it and turned the 50/50 toward the

Mexicools. It was all handshakes. Crazy and Kendrick had a great opening but

the match kind of went south when London and Psicosis got in.

 

4) Gregory Helms d. Some jobber with a red mohawk and his last name was

star. Baaaaaaad match.

 

Then Tony Chimel tells us the MIZZZZZZZ is our new host of SmackDown,

basically he just introduces main events and stuff. I guess. He announced

that Kurt Angle would be facing Rey Mysterio in his 'farewell match', that

Lashley would face King Booker in a non title match and Piper's Pit with

Khali

 

SMACKDOWN SMACKDOWN SMACKDOWN

 

Pyro, no ramp, Paul Heyman guest announces the first match...

 

1) Kurt Angle d. Rey Mysterio by countout in about 18 minutes. Angle got a

huge pop coming out with mad 'YOU SUCK' treatment. Rey was mad over too. The

match was pretty good, I can't give out star ratings but both were over.

Angle played the heel and the crowd agreed. There was a great sequence

toward the end where Rey went for the 619 but Angle caught him, dragged him

to the middle of the ring to lock in the Ankle Lock but Rey rolled through

and rolled him up. Angle kicked out at 2 but the crowd thought it was for

sure over. Me included. Angle then hit Rey with a overhead belly to belly

from the ring to the floor and Rey didn't make the count. Ew finish. They

shook hands.

 

BATISTA IS COMING BACK.....in 38 days

 

Backstage segment with Nunzio, his match with Matt Hardy is next. But he

can't find Vito. OH NO! He wonders if the rumors have gotten to his head

because he needs him in his corner for his big match.

 

2) Matt Hardy d. Nunzio via Twist of Fate. Pretty good ovation for Hardy but

the crowd just kind of sat on this match. Seemed to be burned out. Matt f'd

up pretty bad, he went to do is second rope YELLLLLL but he fell backwards

and tried to catch himself but just kinda fell to the apron. It will be

edited but it was weird. Hardy wins, then VITO comes out in a black dress

and massages Nunzio's back. Nunzio turns around and FREAKS the F OUT. Vito

walked pretty good in heels.

 

What is Vince McMahon's fetish with having dudes in drag in Portland.

Unforgiven 04 it was Stevie Richards now this. Dang.

 

Next was Piper's Pit. Piper got a great ovation and the crowd was

alllllllllll over everything he said. Khali is a BIG MOTHER. I was like

damn. Piper tried to tell him that the Undertaker was tough, Khali got mad

went to choke him, Daivari stopped him, he got slapped and then Khali hit

THE CHOP OF DOOM on Piper.

 

For the second straight year the RAW DIVA SEARCH winner goes to SMACKDOWN.

Yep Ashley's on SmackDown. That led to

 

3) Jillian Hall (whose fake pecs are MASSIVE) d. Kristal Marshall in a nice

little match. For them. Jillian blocked Kristal's victory roll attempt for

the win.

 

And then Torrie Wilson's old "You're Not Enough For Me" theme hit and

everyone popped cause they thought it was her. Not. It was Michelle McCool

doing her best Miss Hancock impression. She said everything is going to get

HOTTER.

 

Hmmm

 

SOMEBODY GON' GET THEY ASS KICKED. Mizzzzark Henry came out and I stood up

and cheered. My section was not happy.

 

4) Henry destroyed Paul Burchill, pinned him after two World's Strongest

Slams. And then gave him the Benoit Beatdown. Guess Burchill finally is

getting that surgery.

 

5) Finlay beat a jobber named Caden Matthews pretty easily. It made his

friends mad. Then he got the MIDGET which got a POP and was actually pretty

funny. He used him as a weapon yadda yadda yadda. But the best part was

after the beatdown...he PUT HIM BACK UNDER THE RING!

 

They did the "show the arena get everyone to yell" but it was interrupted by

an ECW One Night Stand thing. Thennnn a graphic showed that at ONS it will

be Rey vs. Sabu for the World Heavyweight Championship. That was followed by

a Sabu video.

 

And then...King Booker. William Regal, bless his heart came out and said

"All Hail King Booker". Then King Booker came out (minus old music, insert

royal music, minus King Mable remix) and was so in the role it was great.

The whole entrance Regal was saying "All Hail King Booker".

 

Booker than sat on this throne and gave a little speech. Afterwards Regal

continued with "All Hail King Booker" before Lashley came out to a great

pop. He's gonna be huge.

 

6) Lashley d. Booker T with a running powerslam. Not very long match, even

for the most part. Booker went for the side kick, Lashley caught him, put

him up for the powerslam and hit it.

 

Lashley was getting up when Regal came from behind and attacked him. Booker

was cheering when all of a sudden Lashley started to come back. Enter

Finlay. The three beat Lashley down (a good one where Lashley kept trying to

fight back) and then Booker demanded they put the throne in the ring. He sat

on the throne and told Finlay and Regal to make Lashley bow to him (of

course unconscious). He did. Then Booker told them to "make that sucka kiss

my foot". He did.

 

Finally the music hits and Finlay and Regal leave. Booker is in the ring

doing these kinda fruity twirls and Queen Sharmell is going "All Hail King

Booker" non stop. Half way to the back, Regal comes BACK out and takes over.

His mannerisms were classic. And Booker and Sharmell went through the

curtain but Regal stayed and continued with the All Hail King Booker.

 

Then he left.

 

And did it one more time. It was great.

 

Then people starting leaving, I wanted to tell them not to go but hey that's

their perogative.

 

Theodore Long came out to a big pop and was 'thuggin and buggin' in the ring

before he grabbed the mic and announced the main event. A handicap match.

 

Hmmmm went the crowd.

 

First was Mizzzark. He was followed by the Great Khali.

 

I thought to myself "wow they are gonna kill Rey."

 

Thankfully it was the Undertaker

 

Dark Main Event

 

Undertaker d. Mark Henry/Great Khali when Khali got caught in the ropes and

Taker chokeslammed Henry. The funniest part was the interaction between

Henry and Khali. Henry wanted in first but Khali was like 'NUH UH" and just

did his chop motion. Ref bump, Daivari goes to interfere, Piper stops him.

Then the finish.

 

All in all pretty entertaining.

[LJSexay 0]

the interaction between Henry and Khali sounds HILARIOUS. I can't wait!!

[ryankeast 0]

Ashley and Michelle McCool on Smackdown that should help with the loss of JBL, Beniot and Angle.

 

At least Batista will be back next month.

 

Quite liking the whole Finley midget thing....suprisingly.

 

Mexicools over Hooligans - hopefully will lead to more top class matches between the two.

 

Lashley appears to be the number two face on Samckdown now?

 

I think a stable of Finley, Booker and Regal would be quite awesome.

 

Vito in a dress. Sigh.

Maybe.

 

38 days from last night's taping date would place Batista back on Smackdown.

38 days from this Friday night's broadcast date on the other hand would fall on a Monday, which means Raw.

[Guest nokia]

I'm sure due to recent actions backstage, that Batista or Booker T will be "drafted" to Raw soon...

 

Batista is almost 40 years old and has been a MAJOR dissapointment at smackdown, so NO tears from me.....

[King Cucaracha 0]

So, Melina, JBL and Nitro get fired because they shout at Teddy Long, but Mark Henry still gets employment and gets booked despite the fact he's injuring half the roster.

 

And Long is the FACE GM, right?

[benn 0]

At least they're getting Henry over as a legit monster while at the same time all these guys are getting the surgery and time off that they need. It sucks that there's so many of them out at once though. I agree though, Teddy should at least appear to be trying to do something about it. Suspend him in kayfabe but he keeps coming back trying to take Mysterio out or something like that.

[Dark Age 0]

Being one of the most over guys in years is a MAJOR disappointment, huh? What more did you want out of the guy? The matches with JBL were nothing, but he's been pretty decent otherwise.

I don't know about you, but this kinda stood out to me.

[daileyxplanet 0]

Rey better bring his ECW Working Boots or the mutants will eat him alive.

 

And I just thought of something. What if RVD and Sabu won the world titles to close out ONS (happy ending, blah blah) then on RAW Vince nulls both title wins, which leads to RVD vs. Sabu for the ECW Heavyweight championship and they both kill eachother leading to RVD winning?

[Adam 0]

Hey, I'd be down with that. But they wouldn't put RVD and Sabu over for both major titles. Especially Sabu.

[benn 0]

Yeah I have no inherent problem with that either, especially if the ultimate goal is to kick-start ECW, but I don't see Vince's ego deflating enough to put Paul Heyman's legacy ahead of his own in a million years.

Dark match, dude..

I like this idea a lot but the RVD vs Sabu match should happen on the first ECW show. Thats the kind of match that would draw numbers.

Dark match, dude..

 

bummer.. so much for readng carefully so late at nite, eh

[MarvinisaLunatic 0]

Well at least Mysterio is an ECW alumni..am I the only one that maybe thinks Sabu wins and not RVD? I mean, Rey has the former WCW title, Smackdown sucks..they pull the Heavyweight champion off of Smackdown and go back to the floating WWE champion between shows and it instantly would freshen things up a bit and would help out Smackdown a lot.

[NoCalMike 0]

Rey vs. Sabu should be fun.

 

Old broken down Sabu vs. Not slender anymore Rey Jr.....eh who am I kidding it should still be more fun then 90% of WWE programming.

[The Tino Standard 0]

I seem to remember the ECW crowd not particularly liking the WWE-ized version of Mysterio last year. Everybody assumes John Cena is going to be eaten alive by the crowd at ONS II, but don't be surprised when the same thing happens with the other champ.

I wonder if they were upset that he didn't go back to his ECW look, like Jericho, Nunzio/Guido, and Tajiri did earlier in the evening.

[cabbageboy 0]

I think Rey might get shit on more than Cena. It's not like the ECW enjoyed his appearance last year, and add to it they might well react against him having the belt at all and also might trash him for the notion that he used Eddie's death to get himself over.

 

They won't put the title on Sabu. It makes for a fun dream match scenario, but it really won't hurt Sabu much to job to the world champ. Besides, Sabu is a former ECW heavyweight champ anyway. It's RVD that desperately needs to go over.

[Ravenbomb 0]

when did Sabu have the ECW title?

I believe he won it in a tournament in Rio de Janeiro.
