Starting from now and doing it whenever the hell I want since I have a lot of free time, I will be reviewing independent wrestling shows as well as older PPV's and some shows I feel were good enough to be rated. IT would be cool to see other people start doing this
Show opens up and Triple H says he is the new king of the show. Edge comes out and says they can co-exist as champions. Triple H doesn't fall into Edge's trap. Batista comes out as Triple H throws him to the outside. Batista spears Edge and takes his world title. Former Evolution partners then celebrate in the ring with the belts. Good segment.
Opening Contest: Mark Henry and M.V.P Vs. Kane and The Big Show
This one is a lot better than expected. Show and Kane try to impress each other and intimidate Henry and the other in the ring. MVP tries to punk out Henry in the end, but Henry doesn't take shit from anyone, allowing Kane to pick up the win over M.V.P. **1/2
Edge and Vickie talk backstage discussing wedding plans. Vickie tells Edge to focus on Matt Hardy for now.
Tag Team Contest: Irish Fun[Finlay and Hornswoggle] Vs. The Edgekins
This one was funtastic. Finlay under-estimates the Edgekins, which allows them to take advantage of the match. The rookies get cocky and it costs them. *3/4 Funtastical
Edge Vs. Hardy is next.
Mysterio's final appearance on SD! is later tonight.
Champion Vs. Champion: Matt Hardy(U.S Champ) Vs. Edge(World Heavyweight champ)
Edge tries to beat his nemesis on the mat, but Hardy is better, so he tries to go on the offensive to finish it early, but Edge hasn't worn down Hardy enough, and it costs him early on. Hardy kicks Edge's head as he tries for a spear. Edge takes advantage, but Hardy battles back. Edge takes an ultimate opportunity and it works. Lots of nearfalls. This rules. ***3/4
Jeff Hardy video package. He will be on Smackdown! next week.
6 Woman Tag Team Match: Cherry, Michelle McCool and Kelly Kelly Vs. Maryse, Natalya Neidhart and Victoria
This wasn't too bad. All the girls wanted to impress Vicky to get a title shot, but Natalya doesn't care, so she tries to keep them down. Not a bad match. **
Mysterio's final appearance later~!
Kennedy on SD next week.
Singled Match: Vladamir Kozlov Vs. Jobber-O
Bad, as normal. Dud
Mysterio comes out, kisses up, tells the people to watch Raw, I really don't care. Batista comes out, main event up next. Thank god.
Main Event: Umaga Vs. Batista
Tons better than their match at Wrestlemania. Umaga tries to pick up some stream here as Batista tries to gain momentum going into NOC this Sunday. Edge see's that Batista is strong, so he gets Batista DQ'ed. **1/4
After the match Batista gets beat down so he is weakened for Sunday. La Familia forgets that Batista has a powerful friend, and it costs them.
Overall, 9/10 for entertainment, 8/10 for wrestling, 17/20 overall. A great episode of Smackdown.
Best Match: Edge Vs. Matt Hardy Worst Match: Kozlov Vs. Domino
Best Segment: Opening Segment Worst Segment: Mysterio's farewell. Cya in a few weeks!

Rey's segment was cool. I disliked the fact that JR and Foley were making it seem like Smackdown fans don't watch Raw and vice versa. Then again, apparantly Latino viewer ship isn't too high on Raw so that could be true. I also couldn't help but to feel like Caucasians world wide had a confused look on their face for the last two minutes of the segment. Anyone who saw the show will know what I'm on about. " Aye you there boy, whats them noises comin out chur mouth? You call that a language!" To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 20 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
No worries, besides Lilian Garcia & Kane, Rey will be the only person on or watching Raw that knows Spanish.... Well besides me. Though if Smackdown picks up, Raw can get fucked!
