LordKooler's Friday Night SmackDown review
1.Booker T vs Matt Hardy
During the match, Sharmell interfered and Booker T low blowed Hardy. Booker T won at the end.
2.Joey Mercury vs Paul London
A good match. Paul London pulled the upset victory at the end. I think that London & Kendrick will be the next WWE Tag Team champions.
3.Chris Benoit & Lashley vs Finlay & Orlando Jordan
Chris Benoit & Lashley won at the end. When will Orlando Jordan's bisexual angle start?
4.The Great Khali vs Funaki
Great Khali squashed Funaki at the end.
5.Paul Burchill & William Regal vs Gymini
Before the match, Burchill made Regal dress up in silly costumes. Then Regal came out dressed up like a pirate. It would'ive been funnier if William Regal dressed up like Sailor Moon. The Gymini won at the end.
6.JBL segment
JBL's celebration shows him firing Jillian Hall and Kurt Angle & Rey Mysterio attacking him.

They put baseball in my area, too. Fucking assholes. Smackdown is so much better than RAW, so if they're going to replace one of our wrestling shows at ALL, why not RAW? Stupid motherfuckers and their baseball. Do they need to have both on the same channel? Motherfucking.

Save this thread.

I don't like the way they end the matches between MNM and London/Kendrick. It seems like they build the match up really well, then it just fizzles out, as if they don't have any finishers apart from a roll up.
And is i me, or is Khali less mobile than Viscera? At least Viscera can become the running refridgerator. Khali moves about like a crane, and his moves are just standard moves hyped because of his height.

1.Booker T vs Matt Hardy

It was a okay macth.I wished would've won though because we already seen plenty of booker T vs. Angle macths last year
2.Joey Mercury vs Paul London

A good match. Paul London pulled the upset victory at the end. I think that London & Kendrick will be the next WWE Tag Team champions.I hope they do anyway.Just like Trish stratus they hangin with the title a little longer then I would want them too.

3.Chris Benoit & Lashley vs Finlay & Orlando Jordan

It was a okay macth.I hope they win they're kotr macths becaues I would really like to see benoit get it on with lashley.

4.The Great Khali vs Funaki

This macth only lasted like 30 seconds.Khali did that somewhat baldo bomb type move right away and won.

5.Paul Burchill & William Regal vs Gymini

Before the match, Burchill made Regal dress up in silly costumes. Then Regal came out dressed up like a pirate. It would'ive been funnier if William Regal dressed up like Sailor Moon or even uncle sam.Gymini won due to Burchill {heelishly} walked out on Regal.

6.JBL segment

JBL's celebration shows him firing Jillian Hall.Then him doing trash talking on how he is going to chalenge for the world title. then Kurt Angle came and did trash talking.Then Rey came to do more trash talking.At the end JBL got attacked by Rey and Angle.Due to his trash talking.

Since Burchill and Regal lost the tag match does that mean regal stops dressing up? I'm a tad confused on this point.

The way things are going I think MNM will retain the titles. They have lost three weeks in a row and will probably find some way to retain despite the momentum being on London and Kendrick's side.

me three, sounds like fun!!!!!

Guys SD! wasn't live at my area since on upn it has some movie on and took all two hours of it. I checked on wwe.com and i have to agree with JBL that wheres all the real party you know.

it could turn out that Burchill says that he left and made it a handicap macth for him.

Well probaly not.I think Kendrick and London would make great champs.Though since we already seen a normal tag macth between them like 3 times.Why not make the title macth a ladder macth.That would kickass.

Gah, those suckers.... Wrestling may be fake, but it's still WAY better than baseball.

*GASP* really? WHERE? you wouldn't happen to have another ticket for your 'ol buddy redface, would you? :)

THEY CANCELED THE MIZ?

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

they did? what the hell for, that doesn't make much sense unless there has been some sort of heavy negative feedback from it.

SD! was good last night. It was a fortunate that they gave the Booker T vs Matt Hardy match around 18 minutes, and it turned out to be good. With Booker's recent obsession at becoming the king and the fact that Lashley speared him last week. The final could be Lashley vs Booker T. There have been lots of rumors lately saying that WWE is planning to push a heel to the ME level to replace RO in the next 2 months. With Mr. Kennedy still not 100% healthy, will it be Booker T who got the push? Could be...what do you think?

you didn't see? it was before JBL's Celebration, The Miz was about to crash the party when he was stopped by Palmer Cannon, and Miz got cancelled.

ah, well I was flipping channels during the commercials and must have missed that.

Booker T finally getting a main event heel push? Actually that doesn't sound too bad. Just keep him off commentary.

No kidding. They need to keep annoying bullshit out of commentary. Having the occasional guest announcer doesn't hurt, but they shouldn't follow the example of Booker or Coach, which are examples of bad announcing.

Speaking of Coach, though, I thought he did great at ring announcement. He doesn't act biased at all up there like he does for broadcast announcement.

Talkin' TNA

So it's the return of Talkin' TNA while I wonder if I shouldn't take my prognostication powers into a paying gig...although I was really only a master of the obvious on this one.

TNA had a good show this week, it was the go home to the Lockdown PPV, so I guess it's forgiveable that many of the matches didn't have clean finishes.

Plusses: I thought TNA did a very good job of pushing the Lockdown PPV, while still advancing some of the storylines they have percolating for that show and beyond...The Slick Johnson character and segments have really grown on me, some might say it's because the payoff seems to be Raven returning as a member of the championship committee, and yeah, that probably has something to do with it, but Slick has also proven to be a pretty entertaining foil for Zbysko...The X-Cup match was good, with Alex Shelley proving to be the weak link in the chain, and setting up his needing to make a choice when crunch time comes, just another seed it would seem that Jarrett's Army will break down soon (thank God! No...not the Vince Mcmahon version)...Team 3D looked good, and I was happy to see not only Spike (yes, he'll always be Spike to me) get so much offense on Jarrett, but he was also one of the focuses of the match, though I'm not a fan of his TNA debut being a job, at least it wasn't a clean one...Christian Cage's segment did a good job of putting heat back on the Christian/Abyss situation...Christian should be a ball of rage over this, and should have always been presented as such, if a guy comes to my house, insults my wife, nearly drowns me, I'm going to want to kick the freakin hell out of this guy, and this promo did a good job of cementing that. Christian is fighting from the underdog position, and it'll be interesting to see if he and Abyss can really deliver on the violence here, they've got a lot of good competition to overshadow their match, I hope their up to the task...the ending brawl was just a great way to get over the main three programs involved in it, it's oft repeated, but sometimes the old cliches still work.

Minuses: Man, who the hell have the Diamonds in the Rough pissed off? Seriously, these guys seem to be getting jobbed out every week. These guys are all decent workers, maybe not main event level heels, but certainly better then the cannon fodder they've been used as of late...TNA needs more TV time, as it seems to me a glass ceiling is fast developing with many talents being left off of the shows each and every week, it's not fair to them, and kind of reminds me of how ECW's deal with TNN worked (maybe I shouldn't be surprised since Spike used to be TNN...no word on whether or not they still fuck pigs), it's hard to get anything new over with so little time to showcase anything in, but TNA usually does a good job with the time they've got.

Round the middle: Nothing. This was a pretty good show top to bottom, with the same minor flaws TNA has had for a while now.

Yeah, TNA definatly needs more air time. It's just not possible for them to showcase as much as they would like with only an hour to work with. Especially when they have longer matches than usual.

I'm not too crazy about calling spike brother runt, but eh.. as you said he'll always be spike.

That's what TNA needs an extra half hour the best part about TNA is the wrestling we all kinow that but it sucks that as soon as you get hooked with the show it ends.

It also doesn't help that a lot of the guys in TNA lack mic skills. Therefore, whne the yaren't wrestling, they are boring us to death. I think one of the worst promos I've ever seen was when Monty Brown challenged for the World Title. I almost fell alseep four times. On a good note, I went to another indy show last night and watched Team 3-D beat down two of the locals. After the match, they said "Tune into Lockdown tomorrow night to see us destroy those Canadian fags!" It was a great moment.

you guys, any idoit can tell that JBL's getting the push. If you hadn't noticed, JBL mentioned that he has called winner for the WHC, after Angle gets his re-match.

well, hell, this might just be some bull on JBL's part, but still, my money's on JBL for ME status.

did y'all see the preveiw for Smackdown! vs RAW 2007 i posted couple pages back? I'm assuming at least some of you like video games, espeically wrestling games.

I'm a gamer and a wrestling fan, but oddly enough, I hate fighting and wrestling games. Go figure.

after reading this interveiw with Charlie Haas, I'm a tad confused.

Is Haas Married to Jackie Gayda?

Some possible big news.

PWInsider.com is reporting that WWE has made the decision to bring back ECW FULL-TIME.

The plan is to have the promotion return on a full-time basis in September. WWE officials have begun talking to former talent about returning to work for the promotion.

There has been no decision on how the company will be brought back just yet. It's possible that it will take over the present OVW territory, that it will be a promotion that gets matches on the Raw and/or Smackdown promotions or possibly in some other manner.

Paul Heyman and Tommy Dreamer will be booking ECW when it starts up.

WWE is offering talent three year deals which consist of a series of one year contracts with rollover clauses. The Sandman, Francine and Balls Mahoney are all being sent contreacts this week.

I fon't know wheter I should believe this or not but still...

I do not encourage you to order Backlash. It will be the same old crap when Cena retains after he gets a beat for 20 minutes before winning with 5 moves. It has been almost confirmed that WWEis going Cena vs RVD at ONS as a process of turning Cena heel after he loses his belt. So if you really want to buy a PPV, try ONS.

I hope not. Cena Said he would never Turn heel again. What a let-down that would be for all his fans if he would do such a thing.

I'll still purchase Backlash, So I can watch my boy Cena Kick-ass.

If PWInsider says it's true, it's true...and this is just too fucking awesome for words!!! A ressurected ECW!!! Though my feeling still is that they need to get it a regular TV slot, possibly folding up one of the "brands" WWE has now, since old ECW footage has proven to easily outsell DVD's either brand has put out of current stuff, it just makes sense to me to do this. ECW as a developmental league could work to a degree, but would be a tremendous waste of the name, and would in no way maximize the potential it has to bring in real new revenue.

But hey, why start getting down on this with so little information out there? The point is...ECW is rising from the ashes!!! Something no other promotional effort could do with any real success (yes, that includes the NWA too), and while it's under the WWE umbrella, it really looks like they are going to give this a good shot to succeed.

ECW!!! ECW!!! ECW!!!!
