Full SNME Spoilers

[Hunter's Torn Quad 0]

Pre-Show:

 

*Welcome to the SNME spoilers from the Air Canada Centre. Doors said open 6:45 but 6:30 and doors open and half the arena is full. No tarped off areas.

 

*The SNME set is already out, basically a combination of the Raw set with SNME logo centered towards the lower end of the middle.

 

*On the top of the stage is a motorcycle, and there are NBC logos all over the arena. There is only one announce table at ringside.

 

*This crowd is really hot, and only half the arena is full, people are already clapping and the Ric Flair "Wooo!" chants are in full force.

 

*WWE opening voice over and snme logo lights up on the set.

 

*Wrestlemania retro video of this year that showed at the end of the PPV is on the Titantron. Live, a huge negative pop for WWE champion John Cena.

 

Dark Match:

 

*The SNME logo and set is on and Raw announcer John Roberts is in the ring talking up the crowd. ECW referee in the ring as Chuck Palumbo does his biker intro. Tyson Duxx of Border City Wrestling is his opponent. Chuck looks way bigger than the last time he was on TV, not as lean. The local fans are chanting for Duxx. Some boring chants. Palumbo hits a sequence of a over the head release german suplex, followed by a running big boot, then finally a Dominator into a reverse stunner for the win. Chuck rides out on the bike. About 7 minute match.

 

*Michael Cole comes out to smackdown music for SNME announcing followed by Jerry Lawler. A huge "Jerry" chant in the arena as they setup the pyro.

 

*We see a HHH recovery video for his new quad injury. The crowd cheers for the HHH video and SNME is about to start so "Get your signs up" prompting. About two thirds of the arena is full right now.

 

*No pyro yet as Ashley Massaro comes down to ringside and takes a seat.

 

SNME

 

Pyro goes off, set lights up, a bit different than normal.

 

WWE champion John Cena vs. Great Khali

 

Cena out to a major chorus of boos. Cena looks a bit bothered. Worse reaction than Unforgiven. Ashley is the ring announcer. They play a history package on Cena vs. Khali and Khali comes out during it, so he goes to the back to redo his intro. The SNME set actually looks very neat lit up, better than I previously said. The crowd is split between cena and khali. Crowd is super hot. And is filling in... So far, Cena had a bit of early offence but Khali powers out of the STFU and the FU at different times. The crowd turns on Khali as he controls the match with a lot of power moves. Cena can't hold Khali for the FU. Khali hits chop to head and double chokeslam for the win. Khali defeats Cena. Ashley goes to the back, as Khali cuts a promo that gets translated to say that Khali can beat Cena anywhere and will do so at One Night Stand.

 

*Cena gets booed to the back and there are chants of "You can't wrestle."

 

*Next is ECW champion Vince Mcmahon vs Bobby Lashley in an arm wrestling match.

 

*Kristal Marshall comes out to announce as they setup the ring.

 

ECW champion Vince McMahon vs. Bobby Lashley - Arm Wrestling

 

Announced as the "Doctor of Hardcore", Vince is out first. We see a history package on Lashley vs. Vince dating back to the shaved head at Wrestlemania. Out comes Lashley to some pyro that explodes on him at the top of the ramp. The crowd is now about 95 percent full. Vince holds the ECW belt up in front of Lashley. Vince gets the "You screwed Bret" chant and won't lock up with Lashley. he keeps stalling, stopping, locking up, stopping. He gets the mic but it won't work. Vince gets a new mic and brings out Mark Henry to face Lashley and they start brawling. They go for a bit, big Lashley chant. As Lashley gets advantage, Henry slugs him, and they brawl. Henry bear hugs Lashley into corner but Lashley explodes out with the spear. Vince comes in and nails a chair to back of Lashley. Vince and Henry celebrate up the ramp.

Pre-Raw

 

Now time to change ring and set for RAW. This is a major, major change. They are building the Raw set and dismantling SNME set.

 

While they change the set, which is an amazing change, they show us a video that has never been on TV. It must be for corporate purposes.

 

Robbie Silverstein and Lance Malibu vs. The Highlanders in the ring as they setup the Raw set. The SNME logo got raised to the top of the tron. It may be on TV.Silverstein chokes Rory in the corner and gets DQd when they run out of time in the match. Robby then hits a top rope splash on Malibu after the match.

Wait, isn't this not airing until June sometime? And does that mean they're doing this, then RAW?

It airs this Saturday. And yes, Raw goes live after SNME is taped.

[LaParkaMarka 0]

I hope they start a "Spoiler: Cena loses" chant during Raw or something. I could see the Toronto crowd doing that.

[Thanks for the Fish 0]

Palumbo fought on the Heat webcast this past week - looks pretty much the same to me, I don't know why the guy was brought back. Rather bland, except he rides a motorcycle out - no biggie. Might as well send him to ECW to team with Nunzio if they don't plan on tweaking his look or building up his character any.

Doink The Clown?!!!

[Thanks for the Fish 0]

I bet it's that horrid Super Eugene get-up that was floating around the wrestling boards not too long ago...

Because his brother was fighting over in Iraq, and it was briefly mentioned on air during Raw. I guess they wanted to try get some main stream publicity out of it, except Chuck's never been on TV during the 1.5 years he's been back.

 

And no dissing Chuck. You're on notice

That has to be a nod to the original SNME with ending the show with midcard filler. Basically like kamala v Lanny Poffo, Big Bossman v Jim Powers, Santana v Martel, etc.

Either that or they'll edit the Cena vs Khali encounter into the ME spot...

That spot would late in the night. Best to do the big angle right out of the gate.

I am pretty sure the show will air as it was taped in that same order. The old philosophy of when it aired latenight was to have the bigger stuff near the first half of the show and the more mundane material to close out the night, to try to get high viewership while its still plausably "early" in the night.

 

Thoughts on these results are that it sounds pretty dull overall.

What...the...fuck?

I laughed out loud at this reaction

Wonder how bad the ratings are going to be for this?

[Guest aaron24wood]

I don't think the E care at this point. Hell, I think, outside of ad breaks, it was mentioned once during RAW.

[Scroby 0]

I had a feeling it was going to be quite horrible after I watched one of their ad's for it.

Cena out to a major chorus of boos. Cena looks a bit bothered. Worse reaction than Unforgiven.

 

Internet was down for a bit so I was watching the ME of Unforgiven. Comaparing it to Raw I'd thought the Cena Sucks chants had gotten weaker over the last 9 months. Guess they were just tired from booing him solid a couple of hours before.

[Guest aaron24wood]

You know, having watched it earlier, it wasn't at all a bad show. Nothing spectacular, but OK. Finlay & Hornswaggle were brilliant.

[Bruiser_Brody_ 0]

The circus theme seems hokey to me

Finlay = match of the f'n night

[ChrisMWaters 0]

Hornswoggle and Little Boogeyman had a good view for a moment there.

Finlay = match of the f'n night

 

 

all this was worth watching just to see finlay and hornswoggle dancing. finlay mocking the boogeyman after he layed him out in the back was hilarious.

[ChrisMWaters 0]

So...who's playing Doink tonight?

 

Any ideas?

[Boon 0]

Everything about the Boogey/Finlay/Expose segment was just awesome.

[Hawk 34 0]

So...who's playing Doink tonight?

Isn't it usually Lombardi?

Well, last time it was Dinsmore, but it's obviously not him.

 

Kinda looks too thin to be the Brawler...

I wouldn't mind seeing King and JBL change brands.
