WWE SmackDown Taping Results (08/01) *Spoilers*
 

6 matches, 3 of them squashes. :nono:

Edge can fuck right off for putting his hands on Foley.

You can fuck off for thinking the wrestlers themselves come up with this shit idiot

Man, Raw gets better, Smackdown goes do the shitter

Well, it is interesting. Right when Raw was at its very lowest (well, since the mid 90s) a few months ago, Smackdown was, in my mind, definitely the better show.

I guess they can't put together more than one good show a week.

The Edge spot looks cool to watch. I ain't interested in the rest.

Apparently Mick Foley gives a brilliant promo when Edge asks him how he can defeat The Undertaker in Hell in a Cell. I've heard it described as "must watch."

The earlier wrestling matches sound great. MVP squashed Jimmy Wang Yang, by the sounds of it, but Yang is so fun to watch, and MVP is really good. These two could have a fantastic match. I'm hoping it's at least entertaining. This stuff with Jeff Hardy doesn't sound like complete crap, though, even if it should be Jeff facing Triple H at Summerslam, and not Khali.

Mr. Kennedy and Shelton Benjamin could have amazing chemistry against each other. Apparently this was obviously setting up something for the Summerslam Games.

I don't care if the live crowd are wankers, I'm interesting in Brian Kendrick's new character, and am happy he is getting something resembling a push. I also like Stevie Richards, and appreciate it whenever he gets a chance to appear.

Maria is a non-wrestling Diva I don't mind hanging around, and she's improved so much. Maria going over Victoria makes me sad, though. Especially with a face Divas Champion. I'm beginning to think that the Divas Championship was actually created just so The Undertaker could thank Michelle McCool for the sex.

Big Show is meant to be turning heel soon, so him dismantling people is a good way to foreshadow that. Show is also really likable these days, and a feud between him and Umaga could be cool. Umaga has looked really strong since showing up on SmackDown!. He could be a challenger to Triple H in the near future.

"Thanks for the sex, Michelle, here's a title belt shaped like a butterfly."

...not saying it's entirely out of the question, but a fruit basket would have been just as thoughtful...

No promo for Killings? Useless.


WHATS UP!!!!!!!!!

Great match between Benjamin and Kennedy! :y:

Oh and that finisher that MVP used on Yang was sick looking.

Wow and a great little match between Kendrick and Richards.

oh and Zeke busted out the TORTURE RACK!

It aired on the West Coast broadcast.

LOL anyone else watch the show?!?

I know I'm talking to myself here, but that Cutting Edge segment was pure gold.

<font color=goldenrod>That chop Big Show gave to Domino may have been the loudest fucking chop I've ever heard......even by Show standards it was incredibly loud.</font>

I caught some of it. The Mick Foley/Edge segment was great.

The Edge/Foley segment has to be one of the best things on WWE programming in a long time

Nope...just another vid. :(

Taking a second look at the Foley/Edge segment...I thought it was well done. The emotion Foley used when talking to Edge made me realize that this match Could (IMO) launch Edge...and then again it could break him, but that it's all up to him about how much he wants to let go in the HIAC...and put it all on the line for the fans.

Hopefully we won't be disappointed in the match.

Foley showed why he is still God, atleast on the mic anyway. I enjoyed this show more than i thought i would.

Besides the Foley/Edge show...I found something better to watch!!

Dammit don't hate me....it was the only thing good to watch while drinking!!!

Foley and Edge were really awesome in that last segment. Foley had great points as well. 2006 Edge > 2008 Edge.

"The referee is every bit as important as the wrestler's are."

Did whoever that mystery guy is ever go by the name "Captain Exaggeration"?

Going to watch this on Daily Motion later...

It seems as if I should watch the show before making any sort of judgement of Smackdown. Turns out it was quite a good show, with obviously the highlight being the last segment. The only two things I wasn't so fond about was the Divas' match, and the extremely slow pace of Hardy-Khali.

Also it is ridiculous how over Undertaker is. "UN-DER-TA-KER" chants - like the Austin chants from 98 and 99 - are so loud and frequent the last two shows.

That foley promo was fucking amazing. I think edge was literally about to cry.

I wish more people thought that way around here. Even I was a little skeptical when I read there 3 squash matches on the card.

I was hoping that promo would've ended with Edge looking at the camera and saying something along the lines of "At Summerslam, Undertaker you're mine."

That promo did more for Edge than being partnered with Vicky and having La Familia do his dirty work. Showed Edge is going to bring it to Taker in the Cell
