This will be abbreviated as I'm only going through the matches and CM Punk/Rey promo The Cutting Edge. Here we go, here's the Smackdown Lowdown, taped from LA.
Rey, not armed with a giant this week, came out to tell us that he's heart broken and blah blah blah. Straight Edge Society interrupts him (yeah!) and CM Punk had brought pictures of the verbal carnage last week. Punks going for the photography badge in the SES Club. He goats Rey into a re-match against Gallows. If Rey wins it'll be a street fight between Punk and Rey and Wrestlemania. If Rey loses though, he has a match with Punk at Wrestlemania and if he loses CM Punk get's to punch a another hole in his SES Membership Card towards a free member.
Dolph Ziggler/Jack "Lispy #2" Swagger beat MVP "The Kool-Aid Packet"/"Jobberwalkie #1" Matt Hardy in a tag team match via pinfall: 2/10 or 1/5 Stars
Oh look maybe the RAW wrestlers will get more than a three minute squash! Well they got more than three minutes, unfortunately we missed it all due to a commercial break. Hardy took out Swagger and as MVP watched it he too a Zig-Zag from behind (no homo) for the pinfall.
Beth Phoenix/"Take Your Top Off" Tiffany beat Michelle McCool "Mrs. Necrofelia" (Womens Champion)/Layla El "Can't Win A Match" in a Divas tag team match via pinfall: 3/10 or 1.5/5 Stars
Yeah the mardi gras stick is still going. I'll see her "WWE topless" soon, I must. Sorry Eve Torres-Day, your my #1 diva still. Anywho, still glad to see short skirt back in the WWE, and Tiffany is looking good to boot. Beth comes in an does a vintage airplane spin that had me all nostalgic. Then Tiffany takes the beating from Michelle. Beth the Beast back in for the GlamSlam for the win. ((Thanks for posting Taz) Thanks for posting John Canton)
Cutting Edge with Special Guests Chris Jericho (World Heavyweight Champion) and Wade Barrett
If you saw The Highlight Reel last week you saw this. But add in Wade and subtract the flat screen. Edge has a witty joke (I missed those), Y2J called us hypocrites and troglodytes. Edge gets the crowd going with a "Spear" chant. Y2J goes for a cheap shot, Edge takes him out and sets up for the chanted word. He hits Barrett and then turns around and takes a Codebreaker from Y2J for his troubles. The nice touch to this was Jericho milking the moment and then stomping on the formerly injured ankle of Edge. Nice. Who needs chair shots when you have title belts and old injuries?
The Good and The Bad [John Morrison/R "Mr. Narcissistic" Truth] beat The Hart Dynasty in a tag team match via pinfall: 1/10 or 0.5/5 Stars
So Brets back, and The Hart Dynasty got a huge push. Wait. wait. I'm being informed that didn't happen and their Undertaker rage fodder and tag team squash specialists now. It's a shame, I'd much rather have The Hart Dynasty/ShowMiz for the titles a 'Mania. Maybe they'll get a feud after Wrestlemania. Oh yeah there was a match. Truth hit the Lie Detector on Kidd for the 1-2-3 about two minutes in. R-Truth is a two time world champ you know right?
Luke Gallows w/CM Punk/Serena beat Rey Mysterio in a singles match via pinfall: 5/10 or 2.5/5 Stars
Match of the night easily, and I really like these two in the ring together. Rey is good, but you can tell he's getting old, and Gallows is very quick and agile for a big man. Good job you two on another good showing. Rey hits the 619 on Gallows. Punk jumps in the ring as Rey is going to hit the springboard splash. And Serena pushes Rey off the ropes and Festus...err Gallows covers Rey for the pin. Now if Rey loses to CM Punk at Wrestlemania he'll have to join the Straight Edge Society. Nice much better than the rumored Hair v Mask match. Good feud, and it's only been going 4 weeks, whaaaa?
Undertaker beat Drew McIntyre (Intercontinental Champion) in a singles match via pinfall: 1/10 or 0.5/5 Stars
Not ever Drew's awesome entrance could help him keep his undefeated streak alive. I mean 'Takers entrance went the whole commercial break, he's in the lead for the "Longest Entrance" trophy. Yeah I have trophies, what are ya gonna do about it? Undertaker destroyed him in like two minutes with the Tombstone. I guess to prove he's angry and ready for Wrestlemania. BUT WAIT! Undertaker doesn't get ot raise his hand to close out the show! (Blasphemy!) Shawn Michaels worked a Tuesday and super-kicked Undertakers head off and mocked him to close out Smackdown. Nice, one of the few parts of SD I liked this week.
Smackdown: 5/10 or 2.5/5 Stars
Last Week: 6/10 or 3/5 Stars
It hasn't been too good the past couple of weeks. Taker/HBK and Rey/Punk/Gallows have really been the only highlights. I really hope the A-Show doesn't fall into a rut and turn into Raw #2. I like watching Smackdown bring back wrestling! Please.
That's it for the Smackdown Lowdown. As always suggest to me stuff you'd like me to write on n' shizz.
Thanks for reading Fat Jesus Disciples!
