Yep, I found Fridays Smackdown & am reviewing it with the usual caveats applied. I call it how I see it, the views contained are my own and no-one elses. Any feedback on the review will be answered.
2 on 1 Handicap Match - Batista vs Deuce & Domino. Does Honky Tonk Man know these 2 idiots are killing his old gimmick? Badly billed, as this was never 2 on 1. Deuce & Domino were tagging in and out & if it were a proper 2 on 1 match they'd have both been in the ring together from the bell. This actually wasn't half bad. Deuce & Domino sold well enough, Batista looked good & worked well to take the pin in a pretty short match.
Smackdown Diva competition - Eve, Cherry, Victoria & Michelle in an arm wrestling contest. Someone needs to tell Vince this isn't entertaining. Victoria was eliminated. Waste of tv time. Even with the rubbish afterwards.
3 on 1 Handicap match - Big Show vs Chase Stevens, Andy Douglas & Luke Hawx. Well these 3 were always going to job, it was a case of how fast. Big Show got the obvious win, another waste of TV time.
Edge vs Funaki. Was this a joke? When was Funaki EVER going to give Edge any kind of match, especially with Edge's 2 cronies at ringside. Edge won off a Tombstone Piledriver. AWFUL match.
MVP bleats at us on the mic, Chris Jericho kicks his ass.
Kane vs Chuck Palumbo. I wasn't too sure about this match, Chuck seems to have been repackaged in Undertaker's old "American Badass" gimmick which is never going to work for him. This one was way too long by at least 5 minutes and incredibly dull. Either man could have won and it REALLY didn't need the "amble in" by Khali or the walk in by Mark Henry (incidently he is not now & never has been "The Worlds Strongest Man" and WWE are asking to be sued if they keep trying to claim that s**t). Call this match a No Contest, WWE's having lots of these recently. Makes for an even more boring card than it already is.
Tag Championship Match - Jesse & Festus vs The Miz & John Morrison. With the belt on the line & Wrestlemania just around the corner the belt was going nowhere, especially after Festus had made 2 pins in 2 weeks over Miz & Morrison in other matches. Is George "The Animal" Steele still alive? Because he must be as sick as hell of seeing Festus f**k up his old "crazy bastard" gimmick. Miz took the easily predicted win. At least we got to see how Miz & Morrison work and they aren't half bad, they just need a decent team to work against. Jesse is a good worker too and would be much better on his own.
Chavo Guerrero Vs The Undertaker - Chavo had Edge & his 2 b***hes in his corner. Does ECW no longer have it's own show seeing as Chavo's having to work on Smackdown? As far as this match went the best we could hope for was something short with no interference but realistically there was no hope of that ever happening. Chavo & Taker worked each other well enough but the match was too long really with not enough happening. Taker got the obvious win & him being jumped after the bell was so predictable as to be unreal.
Awful show with 1 half decent match on the whole card (the 1st one).
WWE think this kind show is going to sell 'Mania? Their very sadly mistaken if they do.
