T'was a good try, but your little comments failed t'make us laugh. However, aside from t'battle royal, that is how t'ppv is shaping up...

Naw. It became it on the back of chinks, niggers, and other slave labor. USA! USA!

Two things:

1) Alienoid, on your JD card, why not make it Beniot vs Finlay in a KOTR re-match, as Beniot would be looking to avenge the tainted loss

2) Loved the Finlay-Beniot match, esp the commentary by Taz. I liked how he used the actual names of the submissions(Ex. jujigatame instead of cross armbar). Good match, I'd love to see these guys feud. Hell, I'd love to see Finlay wrestle Angle.

Finlay vs. Chris Benoit seems really likely the more I think about it, but I wasnt really blown away by their match on SmackDown!. I'd love to see something done with Gunner Scott at Judgment Day. Maybe it will be Finlay & Mini-lay vs. Chris Benoit & Gunner Scott?

So revising my card for a bit, here's an updated look:

World Heavyweight Championship
Rey Mysterio vs. John Bradshaw Layfield

2006 King of the Ring Final Match
Booker T vs. Bobby Lashley

My sarcastic assault on the WWE before was interpreted by Steve The Pirate as an attempt at humour, I better be more forthcoming with my distaste for storylines featuring the more limitied performers in the WWE
The Underaker vs. The Great Khali

Divas Match
Melina vs. Jillian Hall

WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Gregory Helms vs. Super Crazy vs. Nunzio vs. Kid Kash

King of the Ring Rematch
Finlay vs. Chris Benoit

WWE Tag Team Championship
MNM vs. Paul London & Brian Kendrick

That makes seven matches, which is how the WWE likes to book their PPVs. I'm a little upset Gunner Scott isn't on there. Gunner Scott vs. Jamie Noble as an impromtu match? I wish.

Paul London & Brian Kendrick will hopefully win the WWE Tag Team Championship. This would be the perfect place to re-introduce the Get Well Soon as their tag team finisher. I would mark out if Paul London & Brian Kendrick wore gold and blue shorts. What better way to get inside your opponents head than by wearing attire which matches the Championship belts you are gunning for? This tag team match could easily go for 15:00.

Gunner Scott cancels out the leprachaun's presence, allowing Chris Benoit to lock in the Crippler Crossface and get the submission victory. I wouldn't have this match go over 10:00. They've proven they can use the time effectively, but they've already gone all out in those regards. Maybe have Finlay jump Benoit during his entrance to allow this match to start with the heel in control. Some crazy spots from Chris Benoit could make this the second MOTY candidate in a row.

With Fatal Fourways being no disqualification (generally), it would be awesome to see Vito, Psicosis & Jamie Noble getting involved here, just for some crazy spots. Helms has been a great Cruiserweight Champion, but I think it is time for a change, before people start to lose faith in the division. I would go with the surprise Nunzio victory, making this is third CW Title win. This could be the third great match in a row.

Melina vs. Jillian Hall could have MNM intimidating Jillian Hall, only for Paul London & Brian Kendrick to come out and even the odds a little. MNM and the WWE Tag Team Champions start brawling at ringside, maybe leading to ladders and steel chairs getting involved (teasing a TLC Match). Melina picks up the win as MNM finally get the best of London & Kendrick (with the faces taking some sick bumps), and hitting a Snapshot on Jillian Hall behind the ref's back.

The Undertaker vs. The Great Khali will most likely suck ass. Having this one turn out short and sweet with Taker getting disqualified, prolonging this feud whilst keeping Khali undefeated, seems like the 'E thing to do. Maybe having Taker lock Khali in a casket will give the feud an edge like no other feud Taker has participated in.

Booker T beats Bobby Lashley, somehow. For some reason, I keep picturing Randy Orton giving Lashley an RKO and reminding Booker he owes him a favour, but the WWE would have forgotten about that, and I'm not sure Orton's suspension is up. Maybe a clean win can send Booker's career in the right track?

Rey Mysterio and JBL have good chemistry, so this could be another great match. Rey Mysterio retains the title with help from...Booker T. I mean, if you were a heel contender, and you had to face an opponent, wouldn't you pick the guy you think you had the most chance of beating? It's a good act disguising bad intentions, which seems to be right up Booker's alley. A Rey Mysterio beat-down afterwards would re-emphasise Booker T is a heel, and effectively set-up your Great American Bash main event. For some reason, I see Mark Henry joining in and Batista, Chris Benoit and/or Kurt Angle coming down for the save.

I really want to see how JBL works as a face. Having Mark Henry turn on JBL after JD for not winning the World Title, only for JBL to knock Henry down with a Clothesline from Hell, retaining the US Title against him, would be a fantastic way to do it. Face JBL, even if it is only for a night, is something I would love to see greatly.
