1. Edge def Cena (SD! needs a superstar like Cena to get a better rating. If he comes, it will do wonders to the show.)

Well Edge is the master of ladder matches and never lost, so I'm going with him.

2. Randy Orton def Carlito (It will be the end of road for RO if he loses to Carlito after jobbing to Hogan.)

Yeah, Randy will win.

3.Trish def Lita (I do not see Trish losing since it will be her last match. After that, there will be a tourny to determine the new women's champion.)

That would be a great idea, but they will probably let Lita win.

4. Umaga def Kane (Umaga is in the middle of a super push towards the WWE title, I do not see him losing to Kane.)

I see Kane winning in a matter of seconds.

5. Jeff Hardy def Nitro (Knowing the WWE, they cannot wait to crown Hardy with a title.)

Nah Nitro will win in a minute or so.

6. The SS def The Highlanders (I do not care about this one, say the SS.)

Highlanders are really entertaining and do bring ratings, I hope they win.

7. The DX def Big Show + The Mcmahons (Need I to say more?)

I don't really care about this one, it's gone to far, think of new story lines already, geeze.

SD was decent tonight. The Matt/Helms match was my fav of the night. Poor Matt can't seem to catch a break.

The Miz gets another win, and now we know that a spinning neck breaker is his finish. The crowd didn't really go for it so they will have to eitehr re-think it, or hype it like no tomorrow.

Yep, it was Paul E.'s birthday.

As for RVD, like Sabu, he works a very showy sort of style, and his spots are risky, and very "hit or miss" it's easy to fuck them up, and that's just the nature of the beast with the way he and Sabu work.

I had heard there was talk about bringing him into ECW when they were still talking about the supernatural characters on the show being a group, but his name was quickly dropped after about a week.

The Mizard is an old move. He's been using that since his DSW days.

I think it was the commentators that fucked up on that one. It was only once Miz got the 3-count that Cole hyped the move, and named it. They just carried on their normal conversation until then.

Its not that the move isn't any good, its just that well... its The Miz and no matter what the WWE tries to do the fact remains, Miz is just some dude who was in the Real World years ago, so its hard for people to take him seriously.

Which is why wwe is smartly having him show what skill he knows so people can tell that yes he has had training and knows what he's doing.

If Trish wins the title and then retires what will become of the belt? Will it be vacated?

Good question... My guess is the same it would be vacated and a new champ would be crowned later, now how that would happen I don't kow, because there's not much depth in the women's division.

A couple of days ago I mentioned how JR in his blog took a not so subtle shot at TNA, obviously some of the readers responded to that negatively in their e-mails to good old JR. Ross then answered those people, by saying pretty much the truth about TNA.

I am not throwing stones at TNA. I have zero issues with TNA but when their brand has a chance to be different and they begin to lean toward the established brand in the marketplace it is, in my individual opinion, a mistake. For the sake of all the talents who work within the business the more places they can work to earn a living the better. I have several friends who work in TNA and I certainly want them to be successful. Wishing ill of another company is non-productive, old school ‘rasslin B.S. The WWE is and always will be the leader within the sports entertainment genre and I am sure the fine folks at TNA would not dispute that claim. But that certainly is no indictment on their brand.

Its the same thing various members of this club have said before, TNA has the talent to be different (and maybe even better) than the WWE but they ruin that by trying to copy what the WWE does.

I say there will either be a tournament, or an elimination match. The title should be defended on both shows to increase competition in my opinion. Same for the cruiserweight championship.

Another reason why I think that Edge needs to beat Cena and sent him to SD! is because this feud has gone way too long to be entertaining anymore. There needs someone to be someone else not named Cena getting into the ME scene and feud with Edge. Plus, if Cena goes to SD!, the WWE can turn him heel and feud with Batista at WM23 for the WHC which will give SD! a huge boost at ratings.

Assi9's SmackDown Blah-Blah-Blah

Finlay states "I love to fight!" for the millionth fricking time
ENOUGH ALREADY! WE GET THE DAMN POINT!

Then he shows footage of him cracking Batista's head like a melon; then Bobby Lashley comes out - glad someone else is tired of the hitting-from-behind crap. Nice touch threatening The Little Bastard after the match was set. And LOLZORZ when Finlay had to knock HIM out for mistakenly attacking him - well, he did have a towel or something draped over his head, for Pete's sake......

King Booker has a 'royal meeting'
Finlay sorta' gave a half-assed answer there, didn't he? Not a wise decision towards "your": King, there.

The Miz vs Scotty 2 Hotty
I apologize - last post I got his actual last name wrong; 'Mizanin', not 'Mizanti'.....WHOOPS.

Anyway, He wins again, but w/o cheating this time. Hmmmm......'The Mizzard of Oz' - I like how that sounds, but I didn't quite catch it.

Matt hardy vs Gregory Helms
I'm really starting to like Helms' theme music. Helms wins with a low blow......phooey that it didn't go like the last match between the two, as this was a good match - one of Hardy's better matches as of late.

Vito vs 'Sir' William Regal......again
Well, he didn't run away this time, but he still got the ol' what I like to call the "Crotch-Mission", if it doesn't have a name already.

Did anyone else have that last part of the match get abruptly cut off on them?

The King tries to tell off "Thaddeus" Long (LOLZORZ)
Vito comes in - and then the fun begins. King Booker vs Vito next week! I'm gonna' love seeing that one. Vito then proceeds to - as I heard one of you guys say - flash his own "jewels & sceptor". Man, even Teddy Long turned away! LOLZORZ again.

3-Way: Brian Kendrich vs Kid Cash vs Idol Stevens.......did I get them all right?
Didn't pay attention to this one - just more of the same old shit again - why bother?

Jimmy Wayne Yang promo
Crashing the stereotype again - enough said. I love this guy.

Rey Mysterio vs Ken KEEEEEEEEEENEEEEEEEEDYYYYYYYYYYY
Rey gets the bright idea of bringing his son Dominick to SD - I automatically knew where this one was a goin'. It's a shame - it was an excellently done match; but alas, it had to be ruined once again by the blasphemy that is Eddie-Sploitation.

Hey - at least we get Rey vs Chavo next week.

MVP bitches some more........
Fan base? WHAT FRICKING FAN BASE!? You're an pompous ass - YOU HAVE NO FANBASE. Long did make a mistake - wanting to hire you.

Terkay decimates another nOOb
What's with the same old shit, here? Have Elijah......what's his last name again..........do the next match.

MAIN EVENT: Lashley vs Finlay
Hmmmm, he must've scared the shit out of the Irish Mini-Me, as he didn't show up - either that, or he was still out cold.... And yeah, JBL; we believe you when you say you got invited under the ring to see all the leprechauns.......just shut up. The King & his court came to ringside, and then Cole asked William Regal if he needed toothpaste after his Vito encounter, tee-hee. But that's not the thing he said that impressed me the most..........

#2 "Reason To Think That Michael Cole Has More Balls Than He Lets On":

(Cole to King Booker): "Yeah, I'd like to see someone kick your ass."

Quoted for extreme pwnage.

Anywho, it was back & forth, and I actually didn't know whether or not it would be Finlay jobbing on purpose for his king, or Lashley beating the fuck out of the King for the Title win - it ended up being the latter after Finlay snapped & broke out the ol' shellaligh. Whoops! Booker decided to mug Lashley while he was down, but the somewhat silence would be broken by Batista's theme music...........steel pipe in hand. Uh-oh.........RUN IRISH BITCH, RUN!!! And away he went. I think this is the first time I saw Batista clunk out a ref to go after somebody - I don't think he even did that when he went ballistic on Mark Henry....... Luckily, this distraction gave Lashley enough time to Spear - or should I say 'joust'? - the King of the Ring OUT OF the ring. PWNED! Just hand him the damn Title, Book, & stop the charade.

Assi9's SmackDown Blah-Blah-Blah

Cool, uhhh, blah,blah,blah? But is that true? Is Vito really facing King Booker next week? I understand that it miight be slightly funny seeing the guy in the dress facing King Booker, but the guy in the dress is VITO!! From a wrestling standpoint I can pretty much guarantee that its going to be a terrible match.

From what I figure, and everybody else in the know figures, if Trish wins the belt, it's immediately vacated, and they'd probably have a battle royal or something real quick to crown a new champion, or maybe they'd just use it as an excuse to just out and out retire the belt. The whole division is a god damn shambles, and they really need to get the hot girls who can't wrestle switched with the hot girls on SD! who actually can. The athletes with the athletes, and the eye candy with the eye candy, that's how it should be.

Some ECW notes:

Tommy Dreamer posted a new Diary of Violence in which he reveals a WWE superstar who almost worked for ECW back in the day. I won't spoil it here, but I was surprised, a high placed person, and it would have been interesting to see if that peron would have agreed to pose for Jim Quigley's camera on ECWWrestling.com (if you don't know what I'm talking about, you never watched the old ECW).

King Booker is coming to ECW on Sci Fi on Tuesday, not sure what he'll be doing, just hear that he's showing up.

Bit of an interesting note on CM Punk, someone that I am becoming more and more convinced may become that next break out star for WWE in a year or so. The reason Punk is in ECW is because Stephanie did not like Punk's work, and he was absolutely going nowhere, and not going to be brought up to any of the main shows. Paul Heyman said "I like the kid's work, give him to me in ECW". I thought that was interesting because it totally reinforces what I've always said about Paul's eye for talent, and that Stephanie has no fucking clue what she's doing...I might buy several CM Punk shirts just so that it makes money, drive to Stamford, and force the extras straight up her stupid shrieking ass. Yes...I hate her that much.

I hate the whole Mcmahon family this weekend, Vince blasted ECW the other day, saying among other things the fans didn't support it, and you know? I think it's just jealousy now, he's jealous that a little "bingo hall promotion" created more atmosphere, and long term fan support then he has for his big traveling circus that does major arenas, and he spends and gets millions to create.

LordKooler's Friday Night SmackDown! review
1.Finlay/Lashley segment
Finlay comes out with the Little Bastard with a rag over him. Finlay talked about attacking Batista. Then Lashley comes out and challenges Finlay to a match. Theodore Long comes out and announced a #1 contenders match between the two later tonight. The winner will face World Heavyweight Champion King Booker at No Mercy.
2.Matt Hardy vs Gregory Helms
The main reason why Helms is the longest reigning Cruiserweight champion of all time is because he never defends the damn belt! Will Gregory Helms' reign as Cruiserweight Champion surpass Fabulous Moolah's reign as Women's Champion which lasted from 1956 to 1984? Gregory Helms won at the end.
3.The Miz vs Scotty 2 Hotty
The Miz won at the end with The Mizard of Oz.
4.Brian Kendrick vs Kid Kash vs Idol Stevens
Brian Kendrick won at the end. I'd like to see a TLC match involving these three teams at No Mercy.
5.Rey Mysterio vs Ken Kennedy
During the match, Chavo & Vickie Guerrero came out with Dominic and it distracted Rey. Kennedy won at the end.
6.William Regal vs Vito
I really really really really hate Vito's crossdressing gimmick. Vito won at the end. Why the hell did they make an excellent technical wrestler like Regal job to a Man in a dress? Vito will face King Booker next week. I hope King Booker wins and ends Vito's stupid winning streak.
7.Sylvester Terkay vs Todd Smith
Terkay won at the end.
8.Finlay vs Lashley
Lashley won by DQ to become the #1 contender to the World Heavyweight Championship at No Mercy. Then Batista comes out and attacks Finlay. Then they showed King Booker & William Regal attacking Lashley but Lashley fights back and gives King Booker the spear.

a couldn't watch all of it because my friend was over and he doesn't like wrestling, so thanks 4 the recap. also, i hope booker wins against vito, that man whore, and y doesn't terkay fight ACTUAL WRESTLERS???!!!???? THOSE ARE JUST PEOPLE FROM BACKSTAGE!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMMIT!!!!!

May become the next break out star? I have to disagree with you there, Punk's going to be the next breakout star. Its only a matter of time, Punk's had some good matches but the fact is he has a lot more to offer both on the mic and in the ring. This whole crap with Stephanie could very well be a blesing in disguise and like you said if someone recognizes talent (and makes the most of it) its Paul Heyman... After a while Steph is going to regret not bring up Punk to Smackdown or RAW and I'm sure she'll be begging her dad to put CM in another brand.

Steph has proven time and time again that she has absolutly no clue as to what is good or not. It should really come as no surprise considering she has openly stated that she dislikes ECW and flat out hates Heymen. I shutter to think how wwe will be run once Vince finally retires.

I hope CM Punk does become a huge star. One because the guy is damn good, and second just to piss steph off by having someone she didn't like become a star.

Someone needs to shoe Steph Punk's matches from ROH... Even though that probably won't make a difference.

Now on to my Unforgiven picks:

Kane vs Umaga: Umaga's not losing.... yet. So I'm taking him.

Carlito vs Randy Orton: Two of my favorite young stars in the WWE... I'm taking Orton, because that will guarantee a victory for Carlito.

Spirit Squad vs The Highlanders: The Highlanders will win the tag titles and this will hopefully be the beggining of the end for the SS.

Lita vs Trish Stratus: I'm taking Trish for obvious reason... more on Trish later.

Johnny (don't call me Monday) Nitro vs Jeff (the one who doesn't job every week) Hardy. I'm taking Jeff, he's been pushed since coming back and he'll get the IC belt.

DX vs BIg Show and The (please let it be the last time we'll see you on tv for a while) Mcmahons.. I'm taking DX, if it were up to me Sabu would interfeere and he would an Arabian Facebuster to Big Show from the top of the cell, thus creating one great moment in wrestling history... obviously, that won't happen.

John (too bad we really can't see you) Cena vs Edge (who has lost a TLC match).. I'm taking Edge... but something's gonna happen, its Canda and something always happens there on a PPV... Cena won't go to Smackdown.

I said I would go back to Trish... She was the one who was going to ECW (damn you Raven) and let me just say with all due respect to the lovely Kimona... I would have preferred seing Trish perofrom a striptease. (I'm just saying).

But seriously, when Trish made her debut with the WWF, she was just another pretty face managing T&A (Test and Albert, you sick freaks) my first thought was, another blonde with big tits I haven't seen that before but something weird happened with Trish she actually wanted to be a wreslter and with a lot of determination (and training by Finlay) she went on to become perhaps wrestling's greatest all around diva.. (Moolah was a better wrestler but I'm including the looks). So here's to you Trish, you're living proof that a preety face can be more than just that and its great that you're finishing your career in your hometown... You deserve it.

It's that time again. Time to predict tonight's UNFORGIVEN matches. Here they are:

WWE Championship TLC Match
Edge vs. John Cena
Cena will become a 3 time WWE champion

Hell in a Cell Match
D-Generation X vs. The McMahons & Big Show
DX will survive Hell In A Cell. Would be cool to see an ex D-X member show up to help (X-Pac), but that won't happen.

Intercontinental Championship Match
Johnny Nitro vs. Jeff Hardy
Jeff Hardy becomes the NEW Intercontinental Champion

Women's Championship Match
Lita vs. Trish Stratus
Trish goes out on top in her home town. However I feel she may not win the belt because Lita will get DQ'ed.

World Tag Team Championship Match
Spirit Squad vs. The Highlanders
Highlanders become the NEW Tag Team Champions.

Carlito vs. Randy Orton
Carlito continues to send Orton on a downward spiral.

Kane vs. Umaga
This one will be an all out brawl. Kane ends Umaga's undefeated streak.

IF Cena wins the title back, the only good thing I can think of is that it will be Orton vs Cena for the WWE title, and if that is the case. I am pretty sure that Orton will whip Cena's butt.

if cena loses is he goig to smackdown
and big show and mcmauns are winning

Unforgiven Predictions:

Edge vs John Cena
Smackdown needs talent, and Raw needs a new face going for the belt.

DX vs The McMahons and the Big Show
Hopefully the feud will end here. I'd love to see Big Show thrown off the top on two the McMahons, but I think that could kill them,

Johhny Nitro vs Jeff Hardy
Jeff needs some gold to give him a push, plus he is my favorite wrestler right now.

Lita vs Trish Stratus
Trish has to win her last match, that is a given. I bid her good luck in her life, and congratulate her on her upcoming wedding.

Spirit Squad vs The Highlanders
The SS have had the belts for long enough. Plus if they break up and some go to SD! that could really liven up the cruiserweight division.

Carlito vs Randy Orton
RO needs to win a feud. I think Trish will come down and some how effect the match.

Umaga vs Kane
As much as I like Kane, a win over him will give Umaga a big push.

Orton has failed so many drug tests, it's a wonder he still has a job in the WWE. Only reason that is is because he is a one of the big time names. He'll be a contender again one day, but it won't be anytime soon.

True on both counts. Cena may never have been in a TLC, but he's been in plenty of street fights. That's all a TLC is--one big street fight. Edge beat Cena at SummerSlam in Cena's "hometown" Boston. I feel Cena will return the favor by beating Edge on his own turf in Toronto. Therefore, I choose Cena as the 3-time WWE Champion.
