Well hello again Fuckies. It’s been a long time since last week….no it hasn’t. I’m still hoping that we can finally get an entertaining show this week, although I say this every week and well……..you know. Call me an optimist though, but this week might be the week that shit starts to get interesting. I might be saying this because of the WWE’s worst kept secret since being implicated in a steroid scandal a few months back. If you don’t know what this secret is I won’t spoil it, you’ll find out by the end of the show. Well on that note……lets get to it.

Since I DVR Smackdown I have been fast forwarding the intro. I have to admit I really can’t force myself to like it. The start of the show and already were getting video packages pimping the Undertaker Batista match that is coming up at the main event. I can just tell that were going to be seeing a lot more of these packages all night.

Out of the package and MVP is heading to the ring. MVP’s entrance still reminds me of the college football entrances, well without the pyros….and the tron……..and the Smackdown set. After MVP makes it to the ring Finlay makes his way to the ring. Commenting on Finlay’s entrance is a little stupid considering his entrance is just him walking to the ring. Hey speaking of…..Benoit then comes out followed by Matt Hardy.

MVP AND FINLAY VS. BENOIT AND MATT HARDY

Benoit pinned MVP out of some weird roll up type thing. This match screamed “throw together tag match to cross feud people for a while,” The match pretty much followed the WWE tag formula to a tee. The wrestling was pretty solid. The roll up that Benoit did to MVP looked smooth. I’m predicting that next week we see MVP vs. Matt Hardy and Finlay vs. Benoit.

GOOD:
-The wrestling was pretty solid
-Benoit and MVP are working a good little angle

BAD
-Formula, formula, formula.
-Predictable WWE booking

WHAT DID YOU THINK ARROWMETER?

Coming back from break and another promo for the main event, Jillian is in the ring singing……..well that’s what Cole said it was. On cue Michelle McCool comes to the ring.

JILLIAN VS. MICHELLE MCCOOL

McCool pinned Jillian after a backbreaker. This was the negative of last weeks match, still the same picture just a different outcome. It was pretty much as standard of a Woman’s match as you can have. There were blown spots and the wrestling was below sub-par.

GOOD:
- boobs

BAD:
- The Wrestling.

DID YOU GET OFF ARROWMETER?

Backstage and Teddy Long and Kristal are getting their thing on. Teddy long asks Kristal to bring in Vickie Guerrero next week. Then what can only be described as two extras from the movie Deliverance walk in. Apparently these Banjo playing Appalachians are the new tag team on Smackdown. They call themselves The Dalton Boys……..that sounds like a car parts shop. These two upstanding gentleman will be wrestling on Smackdown next week……and I thought Deuce and Domino were dumb.

Back from break and Michael Cole and JBL interview Ashley who looks like she is live from the Equipment room. They talk about her injury and seeing Kendrick and London lose their belts. Not a really exciting interview.

Out of the interview and guess who comes out…………come on guess………oh come on………fine. Kendrick and London run out to the ring. Guess who follows them………..still not guessing huh? Douchebag and Dipshit, also known as Deuce and Domino. They drive their monkey asses half-way down the ramp, then they walk the rest of the way. Looks like were getting another singles match. Yeah….that makes sense to do with your tag teams.

LONDON VS. DOMINO

London pinned Domino after a moonsault that also kicked Deuce off the ropes. I’m still sticking with my original opinion of Deuce and Domino, they can’t wrestle well, their not entertaining, and their gimmick is just stupid. London tried his hardest to make the match somewhat interesting. I’m sorry to say that there was no way this match was going to be interesting. The only good thing about this match was London.

GOOD:
-London

BAD:
-Domino

ARROWMETR SAYS:

After the match yet another promo for the main event. Their really pimping the shit out of this match.

After the break Kane Comes to the ring, followed by the Boogeyman with his little Boogey. Regal and Taylor then follow. Looks like the match is Taylor vs. Kane so I’m not sure why the hell Boogeyman is out there……he must be bored.

KANE VS. DAVE TAYLOR

Kane defeated Taylor after a clothesline. I really don’t want to talk about this match. These feuds are pointless. Boogeyman being at ringside was also very pointless. The wrestling isn’t very good because Kane is getting old, and Taylor is already there. Next week were probably going to get Regal vs. Boogeyman with Kane in his corner.

GOOD:
-It ended eventually.

BAD:
-It didn’t end soon enough.

ARROWMETER THINKS:

After a couple more commercial breaks filled with entrances and more pormos for it the main event is about ready to start.

BATISTA VS. THE UNDERTAKER ( Cage Match )

The match was ruled a draw after both wrestler’s feet touched the ground at the same time. Since it was a draw Undertaker retained the championship. This match was actually pretty good considering. This match had two handicaps working against it, Undertaker’s arm injury, and Batista. Despite those however the match turned out to be somewhat entertaining. Batista pretty much did his thing the whole match. Taker was doing pretty well, although you could just see the pain in his face. The match went for a long time so that was nice in itself.

GOOD:
-Good match Length time
- Undertaker worked around the injury pretty well

BAD:
-Taker’s injury still dictated the pace of the match.

ARROWMETER:

After the match Mark Henry just walks out and starts beating on The Undertaker. Not sure why, but when you’re a Gorilla Predator you don’t need a reason. After Henry beats on him for a while Edge’s music hit. Edge walks out and gives his case to the referee declaring that he wants his title shot now.

EDGE VS. THE UNDERTAKER ( Money in the Bank Title Shot)

Edge pinned Taker after giving him the spear. Edge is now the World Heavyweight Champion. This really wasn’t much of a match. Undertaker was Bloody and already knocked around really good before this match even started. Edge tried to pin him right away after doing nothing but that didn’t work, so he tried it again…it still didn’t work. Edge waited for Taker to pull himself up so he could spear him and get the pin. Congrats on the swerve.

I’m not going to rate that as a match because it really wasn’t. But I will say that just on the swerve alone Smackdown has become a real interesting show. I wish WWE hadn’t of spoiled that for me. I would have been so psyched to see that play out without knowing what was going down. Overall the show was pretty good taking into account the ending. I can say that I am going to tune in next week to see how shit is going to play out.

ARROWMETER SAYS WHAT?

Well that’s it for me this week. I’m going to go to bed because it’s 2:45. See ya Fuckies.
