TLC?! With... Undertaker in it? Meh, Edge is in it. Edge better win.

EDIT : Didn't see the Undertaker getting fired part. Guess Taker retains.

I'm perhaps more interested in the dark match than anything that actually happened on the show. That's an exaggeration, but come on, WWE. Can we please move past Edge vs. Taker?

It's good Vickie Guerrero is getting epic heat, but it makes no sense for her to be General Manager if William Regal gets fired in storylines. Unless the WWE wants to pretend that SmackDown!'s ratings are going up *snicker*. The "Taker Gets Fired" stipulation makes it fairly obvious The Undertaker is winning. I'm praying for a swerve, though. Move The Undertaker to RAW by having La Familia pour out and bury The Undertaker under their weight, while Edge climbs. Or, have someone run out, steal the belt, call it a no contest, and because Taker doesn't win, he is fired and heads to RAW to feud with that party.

I'm still convinced that Deuce and Domino would be infinitely more interesting if they were singles guys instead of being a tag team. Without Cherry, I have no clue where they are going. What was Domino's justification for dropping his sister, anyway? Let D&D feud over Maryse, or something.

I'm not liking the lack of direction MVP has. If he can survive it, though, it will only make his character stronger. Theodore Long should probably take SmackDown! back from Vickie Guerrero soon.

Finlay will get a good match out of Chuck Palumbo. Like MVP, though, Finlay is without much direction. He should have gotten a massive face push through and past WrestleMania.

Batista and MVP have good matches, so it's good that they get to work together again. Nothing of real importance behind it, though. I will mark out if this leads to MVP getting involved in the Shawn Michaels/Chris Jericho/Batista feud, though. MVP could have used the win here, in my opinion, but whatever.

Vladimir Kozlov actually intrigued me the last time I watched him, I'll admit it. A Nunzio sighting is a good thing, too. I just wish there was something more to Kozlov, though. He should probably feud with Matt Hardy over the United States Championship, or something.

Kofi Kingston and Matt Hardy vs. Shelton Benjamin and Elijah Burke makes perfect sense, follows a story, and is generally a good idea. Fatal Four Way for the US Title? It would probably kick ass.

Why did Chavo Guerrero walk out on Vickie Guerrero again? I like Kane when he is doing something with The Undertaker, because it's when he looks like the biggest deal he can be. He looks like a star when he's part of the Brothers of Destruction, or when he's being made to look like Taker's equal.

Normally Noid, I agree with you. The problem though is that Vickie Guerrero getting massive heat and being GM is fine with me. Why would it not make sense for Vickie to be GM but Regal get fired. Regal fucked up, he deserves to be fired. However, Vickie has gotten heat from being a heel GM. She hasn't stepped in the ring, she didn't win the King of the Ring to help garner heat. She's done it all on her own.

I'm not really passionate on the Vickie Guerrero thing. She doesn't bother me as much as she does others, and I don't mind her being around. I think for someone who isn't a trained performer, she does what she needs to do very well. But I just don't see the consistency in Vickie Guerrero upsetting the Board of Directors, making wrestlers and fans unhappy with her decisions (just like Regal did) and abusing her power, and getting away with it while Regal is fired.

It's actually more a disagreement with how the WWE handled the William Regal situation I have than a disagreement with Vickie Guerrero being on the roster. Regal should have been put out with an injury, for actually suspended in kayfabe for failing a drug test, in my opinion. It gets rid of Regal, without bringing up the question of why the other GMs abusing their power (both Estrada and Guerrero are doing it, as well, at the moment) aren't getting punished.

Another shit load of matches we've either seen a million times before or don't care about, seriously these days it just seems they're doing the same show over and over again(end the fucking roster split, i dont givew a shit if the wrestlers are 'happier' it should be what the fucking fans want). The TLC match would've been more interesting if takers career wasn't on the line cause now we know he's winning.

The title is still vacated.

Taker could lose and go to Raw you know! That would be pretty good IMO as he’s done almost all he can do on Smackdown now, a brand draft should be around the corner, so it’s a good time to freshen things up.

Infact the night after ONS would be a perfect time as the matches are all gimmicked, so most of them, logically would be feud enders, meaning everyone can start with a clean slate, Taker could be re-signed by Raw in all this after being fired from Smackdown.

As for the Vickie thing, yeah she gets heat, but something’s not right, it’s almost like X-Pac heat, similar to Stephine McMahon heat during the McMahon/Helmsley era, I’d rather turn off the TV than watch her, I didn’t find her entertaining, so if I were in a building where she was, I’d Boo her as well.

<font color=goldenrod>I bet Edge wins at ONS, Taker gets fired...and then Armando Estrada signs him to an ECW contract and he gets to appear on Smackdown anyway due to the talent exchange.</font> :roll:

Doesn't sound like a horrible show. But I'm most interested that Matt Sydal got one of his first dark matches, and wish that match would have been on tv. At least Jesse, Festus, and Elijah Burke all show up, even though they lose.

I don't usually read the SD spoilers, but as MVP has been on a losing streak lately I wanted to see if how he does this week.

Another fuckin' loss, MVP is getting some aweful booking. At least I can skip SD now and find something productive to do.

<font color=goldenrod>Glad to see Deuce and Domino getting a win...I've liked them ever since they arrived. Hopefully they don't have to change their gimmicks because of Maryse...I can just see her trying to make them more "stylish" and "with the times" and they'd become your average team.</font> :(

Yeah Vickie is getting incredibly huge boos. Bigger than Edge, Orton, JBL boos combined. She could barely talk at Judgement Day because they wouldn't stop booing. As long as Vickie is GM, I don't see Edge/Taker going away anytime soon.

I think I've rolled better shows than this out of my arse.

I wonder if MVP has been caught 'straight up ballin' Linda.
