Match Number Eight
Triple H vs. Edge
for the WWE Championship
Triple H Wins
A WWE phone poll says 55% have more sympathy for Edge while 45% side with Vickie. We can’t believe that many people are with Vickie. Really surprising. Another Eve Torres moment…

Where were we? Edge comes out with nearly as much greasy wet hair as his opponent. The greasy hair gap has been closed. Edge to Edge. The bell rings and Edge rushes at him with the intensity of a woman scorned. Triple H easily eschews his impetuousness and starts the assumed beat down.
The entire front row has …read more

Match Four
Batista and Big Show def. Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins
Batista’s music and intro happens and I guess the Main Event happening at the half way point. Who will be Batista’s tag team friend? Batista grabs the mic and proudly declares “I don’t need a partner.” We don’t think Hawkins and Ryder are particularly fearsome either. They look pretty cocky and Mick Foley thinks it’s foolish confidence. He is soooo right.

For Part One of the May 16 SmackDown recap click here.
The proud half dozen make their way towards the ring looking increasingly paranoid. Are they afraid of a second indoor lightning strike? Edge is, well, edgy. Either Curt Hawkins or Zack Ryder is pushing Vicki Guerrero along. We can’t tell them apart. But where are Chavo Guerrero and Bam Neely? They’ve abandoned Vicki, the Rated-R Entourage, the Rated-R Superstar.

Seven wrestlers had a part in last week’s Smackdown Main Event battle royal ending with Edge securing his Judgment Day PPV title shot against The Undertaker. How many people would be participating in this week’s Smackdown Main Event? Two, three, four? How about another lucky seven!
Six persons including wheelchair-bound Vicki Guerrero vs. The Undertaker. The announcement coming from SmackDown Assistant GM Theodore Long who went behind Vicki Guerrero’s back straight to the WWE Board of Directors. What must that board room look like? We’re thinking it’s bound by a steel cage, cedar wood desk in the middle surrounded by folding …read more
