Smackdown begins:

Smackdown opens with no pyros ? Michael Cole stands in the ring and addressed
the crowd about an incident at an El Paso house show on Sunday involving Eddie
Guerrero?s mother.

We see the footage from El Paso, where Eddie invites his family to the ring,
including his mother. JBL comes out to the ring and decks Eddie with his WWE
title. Then he gets in Eddie?s mother?s face, and the two have some heated
words. Eventually, JBL puts his hands on her, and she collapses to the ground,
suffering a heart attack. JBL quickly gets the hell out of dodge. She?s
carted out of the ring by EMTs as her family, including Eddie, watch in horror.

Commercial

Non title match: U.S. Champion John Cena vs. Doug Basham w/Danny Basham

Cena comes out to a fantastic reaction, wearing a Tom Chambers Phoenix Suns
jersey. He does another great rap on the Bashams and Rene Dupree. A good half
dozen ?Cena? chants break out. Cena eventually beats Doug with the FU,
despite Danny?s attempts at interference.

Winner: John Cena

Commercial

Cruiserweight title match: Chavo Guerrero w/Chavo Guerrero Classic vs.
Jacqueline

Yep. Chavo puts out an open challenge, declaring it ?Chavo vs. the World.?
?Chavo sucks? chants break out more than once. Jacqueline comes out. Chavo
gets back on the mic, asking Jackie if she?s serious, she doesn?t have a
chance against a man, and so forth. After about 2 mintues of this, Jackie slaps
him, and it?s on. Jackie gets a little offensive flurry going, but Chavo
dominates most of the match. At one point, the referee is destracted by Chavo
Classic (Sr.) while Chavo Jr. stands on top of Jacqueline. Jacqueline low blows
Chavo, rolls him up, gets the 1-2-3, and the crowd erupts. The Chavos can?t
believe it. It was the moment of the night.

Winner and new cruiserweight champion: Jacqueline

Commercial

Booker T goes to see a psychic to find out what?s going to happen between him
and The Undertaker at Judgment Day. The psychic, a Miss Cleo clone, tells him
that a dead man has risen from the black shadows and is after him. She gives
him several random items as part of some sort of spell to keep him safe, but
tells Booker he needs one more thing: dirt from an unmarked grave.

Commercial

Nunzio and Johnny Stamboli enter the ring ready for a tag team match. Kurt Angle
is wheeled out by whoever that guy is to the entrance of the ring. Crowd chants
?You suck? well after his music ends. Angle says he had hoped that the
disrespect he received last week at Oklahoma City was just an abberation, but
apparently not. He says he?s very disappointed in us. Booooooo. On to
business, Angle reminds us he promised last week that The Undertaker would
wrestle this week. He says he surveyed the locker room, and no one wanted to
face the Dead Man. He turns his attention to the gentlemen in the ring; tells
them he knows they were expecting a tag team match, but sometimes things
don?t work out as you expect. Therefore, Nunzio and Stamboli would be facing
the Undertaker tonight. And that match will begin? right? now.

Booooong?

The Undertaker vs. Nunzio and Johnny Stamboli

Angle wheels himself to the back, and Paul Bearer leads The Undertaker to the
ring. The crowd is, of course, going nuts. He does his usual entrance, raises
his hand to turn on the lights, Mr. Bearer takes his jacket and hat, and
we?re underway. Nunzio is thrown out of the ring early in the match; most of
it featured Taker vs. Stamboli. Taker performs his top rope move, then wins
with some random submission move on Stamboli.

Winner: The Undertaker

Post match: Nunzio reenters the ring and gets a Last Ride for his trouble. Taker
then turns to Stamboli and tombstones him. The lights go back out, Taker pays
homage to the urn, and exits. The crowd is beside itself.

Commercial

Later, we find Booker T at a graveyard looking for such a grave. He finds one,
collects some dirt, and leaves. Zoom in on the tombstone, we see a gloved hand
emerge from the dirt.

Rene Dupree comes down to the ring with Fifi, who looks scared to death, to do
some guest commentary.

Torrie Wilson vs. Dawn Marie:

Pretty basic inexperienced ladies match. At one point, Torrie goes for the pin,
and Dawn Marie puts her hand firmly on Torrie?s rear end as she kicks out.
Let?s see if the camera catches that. Everyone on my side of the arena did.
Anyway, toward the end, Rene tries to distract Torrie, but Torrie kicks him
away, does a top rope move on Dawn Marie and gets the pin. Toward the end of
the match, Cena comes out and stares down Dupree.

Winner: Torrie Wilson

After the match, Dupree goes after Cena. He nails Cena with a bunch of foreign
objects, and powerbombs him through the American(!) announce table. Dupree gets
in the ring and does his little French dance to a good deal of heat. Cena gets
carried to the back.

Commercial

Live from New York, Michael Cole and Tazz interview JBL. Even via satellite, he
gets a lot of heat. Bradshaw says it wasn?t his fault what happened, Eddie
Guerrero?s family had no business being in the ring, and it?s possible his
mother faked the whole thing. He says he?s in New York not because he?s
afraid of Guerrero but because he?s there on business. He?s on a show on
CNBC, the ?most respected financial channel in the world,? or something to
that effect. He leaves us with a final thought: His people came to this country
on a boat ? not an innertube.

Commercial

Backstage, Paul Heyman tells Angle it would be inadvisable to allow Eddie
Guerrero to compete in a tag team match with Rob Van Dam against the Dudley
Boyz, because Eddie?s in a bad mood and would certainly cause a good deal of
physical harm to the Dudleys? and they would have to sue the company. Angle
says he made his point, and Eddie?s out of the match.

Dudley Boyz vs. Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio

The Dudleys come out to a mixed reaction, which turns into a lot of heat as the
match goes on. Van Dam comes out to a great pop. His partner is a returning Rey
Mysterio, who receives as loud a pop as RVD. The match lasts a good 15 minutes,
with Mysterio hitting the 619 toward the end. The match ends as RVD performs
his rolling thunder move on Bubba the same time that Mysterio hits a top-rope
move.

Winners: Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio

Post-match, the Dudleys proceed to beat on their opponents. After some
?Eddie? chants, Eddie Guerrero gives the crowd what they want and runs down
to the ring. He grabs a chair and beats up everyone. Bubba, D-Von, RVD and a
couple refs get chair shots. The top part of the chair comes off in the
process. He uses the chair for a good 2-3 minutes, then gives us a half-crazed
look as the show goes off the air.

Nothing signifigant happens when the show goes off the air.

Biggest pops:

1. The Undertaker
2. John Cena
3. Eddie Guerrero
4. Rey Mysterio
5. Rob Van Dam

(All five men received exceptional pops.)

Biggest heat:

1. Kurt Angle
2. JBL
3. Chavo Guerrero
4. Rene Dupree
5. Dudley Boyz

Moment of the night: Jacqueline?s victory
Sign of the night: ?This Mexican supports JBL?

The Tucson Convention Center Arena holds not quite 10,000, and it didn?t sell
out. A good portion of the upper section of the arena on one side was blocked
off. There were probably 7,000-8,000 in attendance.
