Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 Saturday Night's Main Event: SNME opens with Vince backstage with Coach. Coach says with all the info he was given he will match up the dates and locations of Vince's trysts to the Superstars. Vince says he forgot about one with a black woman in Kansas City in the 70's. Coachman says he's adopted and from Kansas City. Vince stares at him and says it's going to be a long night. It's announced that MVP has pulled out o his boxing match. It's Matt Hardy vs. Evander Holyfield. Batista and Kane vs. Finlay and Great Khali. The announcers are JBL, Michael Cole and Jim Ross. Kane's ribs are taped Batista hits the Batista bomb on Finlay for pin. Cena vs. Carlito later, billed as the Big Apple Showdown. Backstage, MVP says the doctor won't let him box so he got the next best thing. Evander Holyfield asks him how his ticker is. MVP says he was scared for a minute but he's better than anyone else so he's already bounced back. He pals around with Holyfield. John Cena vs. Carlito. The crowd chanted "Let's go Mets/Let's go Yankees". Cena wins via submission with the STFU. Randy Orton attacked him immediately and threw him outside, then into the stairs. Crowd chanted "Randy." Orton got a chair from under the ring. He hit an RKO on the floor into the chair on Cena. Cena sold it like he was dead. Crowd chanted for Orton while women chanted "sucks" in response. Match was whatever. Angle was very good. They showed a young boy looking sad over Cena but once he realized the camera was on him, he started mugging for it. Cena took a long time leaving, holding his jaw. Michael Buffer comes out for the boxing match. Divas are the ring girls. Backstage, Todd Grisham asks Orton what he was doing. Orton said he sent a loud and clear message to Cena as to what he's going to get at Summerslam. He promises to win the title. Hardy has 2 cornermen with him. MVP comes out with an entourage. Evander has his own Titantron video. MVP makes Buffer introduce him first, right down to "straight up ballin'" The crowd did the "What" chant during the referee's instructions! Hardy is wearing a boxing helmet.. Holyield isn't. MVP keeps getting on the apron to give him instructions. Holyfield knocks Hardy down in round one. End of round MVP argues with Holyfield's trainer between rounds. Round two starts and Hardy's acting half out of it. Holyfield tells the ref to check him. MVP gets in the ring and tells him to keep beating up Hardy. Holyfield turns his back and MVP grabs him. Holyfield knocks out MVP. The ref rings the bell. Holyfield left immediately. Hardy left. MVP was left on the mat being checked on by his entourage. No announced decision. CM Punk & Boogeyman vs. John Morrison & Big Daddy V next .Tazz joined the announcers for the match. Punk got a big reaction. Good when Punk and Morrison were in. Punk surprised Morrison with a small package for another clean win. Vince McMahon comes to the ring with Jonathan Coachman. Coach gives a long monologue about Vince who cuts him off and tells him to get on with it. Coachman says he's going to help Vince with the child. He says Vince once had a tryst in Kentucky so he is certain this could be his child...and out comes Eugene. Eugene says that he became a wrestling fan because his Mom told him she met Vince. He says his Uncle Eric told him he nailed his Mom and that's why he tried to put Vince out of business. He tells Vince, "I love you Dad". Vince said he used protection and tells Eugene to get out of the ring. Coachman then tells of a story of Vince in a Port Authority bathroom so his son could be...Balls Mahoney. Vince says Balls is not his son. Mahoney tells him to think about it and to embrace it. He says Vince has balls. Vince says "I have no balls". The crowd chants "Vince has no balls". He yells at Balls to leave. Coachman tells Vince of the Wrestlemania 2 afterparty in LA and that this person could be his daughter. Out comes Melina. Vince says that Melina isn't her daughter and cannot be. Coachman asks why not and Vince whispers something. Coach says that's disgusting. Vince tells Melina that the meeting that they had on July 4th was totally harmless. She says that Vince better hope so because if she's his daughter, she will take him for everything she owns. She walks out. Vince demands to know who his child is. Long dramatic pause. Glass breaks and out comes Steve Austin. Austin says Vince could be his dad and Vince says there's no chance in hell. Austin says they missed out on so many good things in life...playing catch, water skiing, building a go-cart, the birds and the bees, drinking beer. Crowd is going "what, what, what". Austin says it would be easy to stun Vince but the big problem is Vince's "overactive grapefruits" so he wants to help him out. He kicks Vince low and low blows him. Austin stuns Coachman and has a beer bash. After they go off the air, Austin asks the crowd if they want to see him drink a beer with Vince. He says it is his first time in the Garden in years. Vince takes it and Austin hits the stunner. Austin does a long celebration. He gives Jim Ross a beer and takes his cowboy hat. Vince and Coach get up. Austin says the only way he's not going to kick their ass is if they sing. Vince asks Coach if he can sing harmony. They badly sing "I Left My Heart in San Francisco". Austin knocked their heads together. He helps Coach up then hits another stunner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike wanna be 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 Way to bring in Evander Holyfield and completely not hype it. Then again, who'd stay up for a boxing match at 11:30pm Eastern on a Saturday anyway? Sounds like the last segment goes on for a while (how long is SNME going to be anyway, 90 minutes?) longer than it should, but at the same time none of those matches appeal to me and it's obvious the ECW tag will drag on.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 SNME is a 1 and half hour show this time. Has to be. Looks horrendous as usual. But at least somewhat logical. But a pointless Austin return, 2 World Champs losing, and Matt Hardy boxing Evander Holyfield comes off really stupid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob_barron 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 SNME was decent live. The Smackdown! tag match had Finlay and Hornswoggle and seeing Khali live was awesome. The intros to the boxing match were funny stuff, but then it dragged. Holyfield got an insane pop. Orton RKOing Cena was insane- crowd was whipped into a frenzy at that point. The ECW tag was fun if only because we had a bunch of people in our section doing ROH chants like Man Up and You're Gonna Get Your Fuckin Head Kicked In. Austin showing up at the end blew the roof off the place and had everyone marking out- awesome stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Perfection 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 Way to bring in Evander Holyfield and completely not hype it. Then again, who'd stay up for a boxing match at 11:30pm Eastern on a Saturday anyway? I was thinking the same thing, on both counts. Why no hype at all? it makes no sense. Hell they hardly talked about it on raw tonight whatsoever. wwe makes no sense sometimes.

Guest Bigelow34 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 The Holyfield thing hasn't happened on TV yet though. They still have ECW, SD, ads on NBC/USA and wwe.com to hype it before it airs. The place was sold out anyway, so it isn't like advertising him for the live event would have drawn any more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 Hopefully Orton RKOing Cena means Cena retains at Summerslam. Do you HONESTLY want Cena to retain? After a year of holding that damn belt? As long as it means dropping that spinning thing and the return of this Then sadly enough, I'm all for Orton winning! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 You know, I can certainly see Orton destroying the spinner belt. It just seems like something he would do. That SS main event is the definition of a match where whoever loses, I win. Or maybe whoever wins, I lose. I can't figure out which. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 You're right Cabbageboy, no matter who wins and loses that match, its the fans that lose. However, I'm so sick of Cena being Champion that I'll take Orton winning, just to see something different. I was expecting HHH to destroy the Spinner with his sledgehammer had he won the title at WM22, but we all know how that turned out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

garfieldsnose 0 Report post Posted August 14, 2007 Maybe they didn't hype Holyfield showing up because, you know, they wanted it to be a nice surprise? With the smarks nowadays, there is no happy medium. If they hype it, you wonder why they just couldn't make it a surprise as something different. Since they don't hype it, it's why didn't they hype it for ratings? Too much inconsistency with people nowadays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyone but Orton. At the very least I have a champion that represents the company well outside of the ring. Orton was one fuck-up away from being fired, and I want him as my champion? No. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No lie, MVP not getting his entrance almost killed the show for me Didnt he do his entrance?, I remember his music coming on and his pyro before holyfield coming out, it was hard to see up in the 400 section though anyhow cool to see a TSM friend went as well, too bad we didnt run into each other, then again we probably did its so crowded in times square Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
