------------
VELOCITY:
Paul London d. Val Venis. At least it looked like Val Venis. We got held up at the door, didn't catch the entrance or the first part of the match.
Paul Burchill & William Regal d Scotty 2 Hotty & Funaki
Brian Kendrick d Some Guy They Didn't Announce
Mexicools d FBI - I had a NICHO sign that Super Crazy tried to point out to Psicosis. The Mexicools worked face for the match, got good pops too.
SMACKDOWN:
Booker T d Christian - Booker T had the craziest pyro of the night. It looked like they might have overdone it, honestly, because I could feel the fire from where we were. Sharmell & Booker were acting weird on the way out.
Eddy Guerrero had a bit where he was barfing while talking to Teddy Long.
JBL came out on a horse and delivered a cheap heat BY GAWD I'M FROM NYC YOU ILLEGAL MEXICANS BLA BLA BLA TEXAS LOVES ME promo.
Heidenrich/Animal d Jared Steel & Anthony Colleti (that's what I thought I heard, anyway) in about 30 seconds.
Sylvan dissed Stacy & Christy, got a challenge from Bob Holly
Batista segment, he was calling in a doctor for Eddy
Randy Orton & Cowboy Bob Orton brought out a casket with the Undertaker Real Doll (that ended up being Undertaker faking it.) Taker beats up Orton. The crowd was going batshit for Undertaker.
Ken Kennedy d Rey Mysterio after JBL rode out on his white horse again.
Sharmell told Booker T he needs to get an IC (US?) title shot soon.
Eddie looks like he's getting a handjob from some nurse
Bobby Lashley d Simon Dean in Lashley's SD! debut
Chris Benoit d Orlando Jordan in under a minute. There was a tap-out clock, I think it hit 49 or 50 seconds.
Batista switches off with the nurse "massaging" Guerrero, and then to gay up the segment some more, brings in Dr. Big Gay Al MD, who apparently does a body cavity search on Eddy. Batista took away the doctor's Vaseline.
Batista did a handicap match vs MNM. Eddy was playing sick in the aisle for most of the match, but at the last second he tagged in & frog splashed someone for the pin. Then Eddy played up their team until the off-the-air main.
Undertaker, Rey Mysterio & Batista d JBL & Randy Orton. Eddy cut a promo saying he was basically going to shit the ring unless he left. Rey barely comes up to everyone else's shoulders! JBL/Orton chase Rey for most of the match, then UT and Batista hit finishers on them for the big finish. UT gets a big exit, Rey kinda disappeared, and then Batista played up the crowd for a few minutes.
THE END. The part of the arena with the main camera was almost completely empty. They will have to add a good amount of sound because the crowd was kinda dead. They popped big for things like armdrags. Almost every match had someone doing a jumping forearm.
The only really awesome thing was this 6 year old girl behind us that was so into the match. She was absolutely adorable & also hilarious.

They seem to be thankfully diverting from the similar Hunter feud where HHH and Flair tried to put one over on dumb buddy Batista. If this lets Eddy play some new entertaining facets of dastardly heeldom than in the Rey feud -- slapstick, smarm, sniveling -- I'm all for it.
Speaking of this angle, have they mentioned that Eddy beat a prior monstrous, muscle-bound champ for his first world title?

I'm not sure how well it'll look on TV, but it should provide some incredible inspiration for DEAN. He should probably start drawing now, because I think this week's Smackdown Comix are going to be his masterpiece. | The Vile1

| #10 Posted on 22.9.05 1248.52 Reposted on: 22.9.12 1248.54 | For the love of the deity, how many more times are they going to do these ridiculous Benoit/Orlando Jordan title matches?
And it looks like they are building up to...Benoit/Booker T? Its not 1998 anymore, they obviously can't have the great matches like they did in Best of 7 anymore. Though its funny how Booker T now seems to be on the Benoit side of the feud from that time.
Its just we have these fresh feuds and challengers for Benoit and the US title in guys like Mysterio and Christian, but WWE just seems too clueless to do ANYTHING about it. Instead WWE continues to shove Benoit/Jordan, Mexicans riding on lawn-mowers, and world title homo-erotic feuds (i.e.: Angle/Lesnar 2003).
And meanwhile the cruiserweight title is still stuck on a show that's about to get shit-canned. | CRZ

Wait. Didn't you JUST post in some other thread about how what a "smart" move it was that the Dudley Boyz were being brought in to "freshen up" a tag team scene in another federation? | The Vile1

| #12 Posted on 22.9.05 1415.37 Reposted on: 22.9.12 1416.16 | Yeah, but I mean, the Dudleys will freshen up the tag team scene by giving us new match-ups and feuds we have not seen before. Dudleyz/AMW, Dudleyz/Team Canada, Dudleyz/Naturals, etc.
My point is they've done Booker T/Benoit. The matches they've had in WWE are not up to snuff to their WCW ones. And then there is this Jordan/Benoit debacle which doesn't seem to be going anywhere except putting Benoit in 30 second matches.
That's why I'm clamoring for something like Benoit/Mysterio. This is a match-up which isn't even close to realizing its full potential. It seems like common sense to put these 2 together considering they've only wrestled each other one on one, once in the history of their careers. Both of whom are premiere superstars on Smackdown. Mysterio seems to have gone beyond the cruiserweight division so it puts him in a new title contention.
That said, I'm excited about the notion of Batista/Guerrero PPV main event, since its a fresh match-up we've never seen before (It might've happened back in 2002 when Batista was on SD! but I don't think it was ever one on one). And it puts Batista in the ring against an exceptional worker, a good thing after the failure of the JBL/Batista feud. | The Goon

Wow, Bobby Lashley is huge. Kind of like a cross between Steve Blackman and Kirby Puckett. He knows only a couple of moves, but he looks a lot stronger (both physically and development-wise) than The Masterpiece. | ekedolphin

| #14 Posted on 23.9.05 2115.18 Reposted on: 23.9.12 2116.09 | Hmm. Between the ridiculous Benoit/Jordan match-after-match-after-match of Jordan losing on a clock, LOD beating jobber tag-teams every week, and the Cruiserweight Title being stuck on Velocity, there are three titles on SmackDown that WWE isn't doing anything interesting with at all.
I mean, honest to God, LOD isn't "on a roll" if they keep beating teams that they don't even bother with entrance music for. We get it, they're big and they beat the crap out of guys who suck. Now let's see them get into an actual feud for the tag-team title, and hopefully drop the belts.
I also don't need to see Benoit/Booker T for the U.S. Title, at least not as an extended program. If it's a match on SmackDown, that's cool. If they put it on No Mercy, it'd be a little disappointing. Granted it might still be a pretty good match, but Booker isn't the same wrestler he was in '98.
At the same time, I'm not utterly against seeing those two go at it. But they need to keep the Sharmell shenanigans to a minimum, and I don't have much faith in WWE's ability to do that. (Also, "shenanigans" is a fun word to say.)
Interesting start to the Batista/Guerrero feud. I can only assume Eddie's going to start bringing the violence on Batista at some point, but at least, at this point, it isn't mind-numbingly obvious exactly how that's going to happen.
Well, unless they simply have Eddie keep teaming with Batista and eventually turn on him and wail on him with a steel chair. Been there, done that (with both Eddie as the turner [against Rey Mysterio] and the turnee [against Chavo]). | Mayhem
