Hey kids, remember when WCW ran segments on Nitro in the wrong order? Well, right now, on Smackdown, they're running the Chuck Rock (my other name for them was deemed a little too offensive by... well, someone else) vs. Venis/Hardcore match.

Yeah, the one they taped for VELOCITY. It still has the green lights near the stage and Velocity logo in the entrance. Disclaimer: If they had any explanations, I muted the TV. Sorry, but Abandoned Pools takes precedence over Cole ANY day.

Cole and Tazz said the Velocity logo was an advertisement for that show.

I'm sure they just switched the tag match for Billy/Tajri. Not too bad, besides the different apron and green lighting. And they did mention it at least.

Hmm, Billy/Tajiri on Velocity? Guess I can stop watching for tonight.

EDIT: I was kidding. Turns out they're running the Kidman/Tajiri match now, right after the Steph segment. I'll save my thoughts for the inevitable "SD thoughts" thread.

I like it. Apparently they thought it was a good idea to have the Ambiguously Gay Duo (Chuck'n'Billy) -v- Hardcore Porn (Venis & Holly) on a more widely seen show.

I'd like to see more of Hardcore Porn in the WWE. I'd not be adverse to a tag title reign.

I'm just shocked to know I'm not the only one who's heard of Abandoned Pools!

Though it was funny to hear Cole and Tazz talk about how much better Smackdown was than Raw, and how they had the better announce team.

Umm... they have COLE. It doesn't matter who else they get. It could be Cole and Heenan, Cole and Monsoon, Cole and the reincarnated spirit of Bill Hicks.... it's still gonna suck, because it's COLE.

Really? I think Cole's te most imporved announcer, and personally I prefer Cole and Tazz to King/JR. Sure, Cole can be annoying at time, but no more annoying than JR can be. Also, Cole and Tazz, unlike EVERY single OTHER annoucne team in this business, know when to shut the hell up and generally don't talk during promos. I give these guys major props. Sure, they're no D'Lo Coach, but they are on their way to becoming the A-Team of the WWE in my book.

If the Cole/Tazz team is better than the JR/King team (which I don't believe), it would only be because Lawler is the most fucking annoying announcer on the face of the planet.

Well, one of 'em, anyway.

If I had to choose an announce team? Hmmm... JR and Heenan.

1. Cole is much more annoying than Lawler.

2. I guess they moved the tag match to SD!, so there would be more time for PPV hype on Velocity.

The Velocity thing was funny but not as funny as the Thunder mix-up a couple of years ago. That was one of CRZ's best rants ever.

Also Tazz is better than Lawler but JR is still better than Cole.
