RAW/SD Spoilers

**The Greater Power** · 11-13-2005, 09:17 PM

The show started up with the crowd chanting "Eddie, Eddie." Many fans in the building have signs dedicated to Eddie Guerrero. On the stage, as a tribute to Eddie, they have his car set up. Lilian Garcia opened the show by saying this would be a special tribute show for Eddie Guerrero. There was no pyro, and no special introduction of any of the announcers.

(1) Mr. Ken Kennedy defeated Val Venis in about five minutes. Kennedy got major heel heat for being from Green Bay and playing that up quite a bit while in the midst of Viking Country. This was apparently either a dark match or a Heat match.

Afterwards, all the wrestlers came out. Chris Benoit was crying from the moment he came out of the curtain, and was perhaps more emotional than anyone. Vince McMahon then said some words about Eddie: "Eddie Guerrero has passed away. Eddie was in the prime of his life, in the prime of his career. Tonight we celebrate the life of Eddie Guerrero. He loved the business. He had a passion like no one else. Whether cheered or booed, he loved to perform for the fans. Eddie Guerrero's goal every night was to steal the show. He would want the show to go on. And so we shall."

They had a 10-bell salute for Eddie, and the crowd was silent for it. After this, they aired a tribute video set to Johnny Cash's rendition of the Nine Inch Nails song "Hurt." When the video was done, Vince said, "Viva La Raza!" Pretty much everyone was out for this, including Shane McMahon, who was crying as well. The fans chanted "Thank you, Eddie!"

John Cena then had some words about Eddie: "Eddie was a father figure. Eddie was a man of faith, but selfishly, we'll all miss him."

(2) Big Show & Kane defeated MNM in about four minutes. This wasn't technically a squash match, but it was pretty close to it. The finish came on a chokeslam. Before the match, they showed the angle where Eddie sprayed Big Show with raw sewage from a past Smackdown show.

(3) Kurt Angle defeated Shelton Benjamin. Benjamin got a near fall with a wicked looking back suplex off the top rope. Angle was able to kick out of that and apply the anklelock for the submission victory.

After that, they showed a bunch of old Eddie and Chavo comedy skits from over the years. Chavo on the big screen then gave an emotional speech about how Eddie was like a big brother to him. He talked about how much he looked up to Eddie and how much teaming with Eddie meant to him.

It was confirmed that Joey Styles, Jerry Lawler and Jonathan Coachman are doing the commentary for the Raw show. The show is being presented in such a way that there are no angles whatsoever. It's simply matches and video segments.

(4) Rey Mysterio defeated Shawn Michaels in about 10 minutes. Michaels went for the sweet chin music, but Mysterio was able to avoid it. Mysterio then hit the 6-1-9 and dropped the dime to get the pinfall victory. During the pin, Michaels' legs sort of flailed about, but they still counted the pin. After the match, Mysterio and Michaels hugged. It should be noted also that during the course of the match, Mysterio paid tribute to Eddie by doing his little celebratory dance, which was a nice touch.

-Melina won a Diva Battle Royal featuring Divas from both brands.
- Eugene defeated Simon Dean with a Rock Bottom.

They then aired a video of Chris Benoit and Eddie together. Benoit gave a speech about how close he and Eddie were. He broke down during the speech, as this was clearly a very emotional time for Benoit. He said, "Thank you for everything you've given me. I'll never forget you. I love you."

After this, Triple H gave a speech about Eddie. This was an inopportune time for Hunter to give his speech, following Benoit like that. It was said that a skeptic might have questioned Hunter's intentions. Hunter said Eddie was well liked by everyone in the locker room, and that no one had a bad thing to say about him.

(7) Ric Flair defeated William Regal. The finish came when Flair made Regal submit to the figure four leglock. Flair had an Eddie Guerrero arm band on, and played it up for the crowd and got a nice ovation for it.

They then aired clips of Eddie Guerrero and his relationship with Chyna, and things that went on during that time period.

(8) John Cena defeated Randy Orton by disqualification. The finish came when "Cowboy" Bob Orton interfered on his son's behalf. The match was said to have been not very long and not very good.

Overall, the best match of the taping was Rey Mysterio vs. Shawn Michaels, but in general the focus was on Eddie Guerrero, and in no way would that be considered a match of the year candidate. There were no promos (other than the tribute speeches for Eddie) and no angles whatsoever. Just video packages and matches.

My fucking God.

. Also Triple H is suspected to have killed Eddie Guerrero simply to steal Benoit's emotional limelight.

**The Naitch** · 11-13-2005, 09:47 PM

holy shit, Orton vs. Cena

**Deceit** · 11-13-2005, 10:29 PM

woah, orton/cena!?

11-13-2005, 10:39 PM

question. was this show supposed to be taped tonight, or did it get moved back due to the death of eddie? cause i find it weird that they would tape this on a sunday?

**McLegend** · 11-13-2005, 10:40 PM

It was suppsed to be taped on Sunday, because there overseas tour starts Tuesday.

**The Greater Power** · 11-13-2005, 10:41 PM

Yeah, it was going to be taped before any of this happened.

**The Greater Power** · 11-13-2005, 10:42 PM

SMACKDOWN

After a quick set change, they moved Eddie's car to the aisle. It was confirmed that Tazz and Michael Cole were doing commentary for the show.

Batista came out, and said he didn't know if he should be the one to out there at this time. He said, "He'd hate to see me out here crying like a baby. There's two things I know: He loved his family and he loved this business. He found peace in this ring. My one comfort is knowing Eddie is now at peace. He is with God. I miss you, I love you, I will make sure no one ever forgets you."

(1) Matt Hardy defeated Carlito Cool. Hardy won the match with a Twist of Fate. After the match, Hardy hung around Eddie's car for a bit. He did not get as emotional as some of the other wrestlers on this night, though.

Vince McMahon then came out to say some words. He said Eddie loved to perform, and then gave one of his trademark big gulps. He said there was one thing Eddie loved more than wrestling and that was his family. Vince talked about how everyone, all the wrestlers and production people and everything, were his family. He concluded by saying, "Eddie was a good man. A damn good man."

(2) LOD defeated Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch. After the match, Big Show gave a speech about Eddie. He said, "My only comfort with losing a friend is knowing that all the pain is gone. He is with God. Now he is safe. I love you, bro." Show broke down during the course of his speech.

(3) Chavo Guerrero defeated JBL. Late in the match, Chavo threw a chair to JBL and took a ghost bump. The referee turned around to find the chair in JBL's hands, and admonished him for it. This got a huge pop from the crowd, who chanted "Eddie!" Chavo hit the three amigos suplexes and the frogsplash to get the victory.

After the match, Chavo thanked the fans. He said Eddie gave his life for the business, for the fans, and for the boys in the back. He said, "I know you all will miss Eddie Guerrero."

*I'm pretty sure there is still more to come.

**Xero** · 11-13-2005, 10:46 PM

- Juventud Guerrera won a Cruiserweight Battle Royal.

- Chris Benoit vs. Triple H was the main event. Benoit scored a near fall with a top rope headbutt. Triple H went for a Pedigree, but Benoit reversed it into a Crippler Crossface, then rolled Triple H over into a pinning position and got the win. Dean Malenko came to the ring and he and Benoit hugged. Triple H got up and hugged Benoit as well. Benoit got on the mic and talked about losing "his brother". A sign for Guerrero was taken out of the crowd and they posed with it to end the show.

That's the end from PWInsider.

the smackdown show sounds awesome

JH · 11-13-2005, 11:18 PM

ok i almost broke down just reading this
man it's gonna be very hard watching RAW and Smackdown

**Savio** · 11-13-2005, 11:43 PM

Note to break away from the subject but I'm quite surprised they did Cena vs Orton.

**What Would Kevin Do?** · 11-14-2005, 12:47 AM

(3) Chavo Guerrero defeated JBL. Late in the match, Chavo threw a chair to JBL and took a ghost bump. The referee turned around to find the chair in JBL's hands, and admonished him for it. This got a huge pop from the crowd, who chanted "Eddie!" Chavo hit the three amigos suplexes and the frogsplash to get the victory

I am so fucking happy that Vince did this. He did the right thing... With only two weeks out from SS, I wouldn't have been surprised if they did the whole "The show must go on" bullshit... Thank you for doing the right thing.

**Bricktop** · 11-14-2005, 12:50 AM

will any of these matches air? They seem to break keyfab and seem just thrown together (duh). Maybe both shows, when they air, will be high lights of Eddie and his awesome matches.

**Corkscrewed** · 11-14-2005, 03:23 AM

I skipped the actual spoilers but I'm allowing myself to read the responses.

That brought a smile to my face. An absolute smile to my face.

On A complete side note I love that Johnny Cash Song

**Corkscrewed** · 11-14-2005, 04:36 AM

Which one, "Ring of Fire?"

Also, if Naitch's stealing avatar thingy was confusing, we're gonna be all messed up for a week cuz everyone's got the Eddie avatar going.

Although in this case, I wouldn't mind leaving it up for a few weeks or months.

As far as I know, I was the first to use this particular picture, considering I cropped it in Photoshop myself...

**Skippord** · 11-14-2005, 04:47 AM

"Hurt" NIN cover

I changed my avatar and custom title because the Eddie picture and the Fallen Angel title didnt seem right

**The Naitch** · 11-14-2005, 04:55 AM

11-14-2005, 09:27 AM

very cool that JBL put Chavo over like that.

**Morgan** · 11-14-2005, 10:07 AM

Pretty damn classy. I thought they might of just tried to continue onto SS too, but I'm glad they did this, we get to see some pretty new matches: HBK/ Mysterio, Orton/Cena, and a proper tribute to Eddie. Nice one Vince.

**Disturbed316** · 11-14-2005, 11:05 AM

I am sooooo taping these shows.

**CharismaInjection** · 11-14-2005, 11:24 AM

Orton/Cena shocked me, if Batista wasn't injured, I bet we would've seen Batista/Cena.

I'm so proud of WWE tonight, I had a feeling they'd only mention it briefly then carry on. Welldone to WWE.

RIP Eddie.

**KingofOldSchool** · 11-14-2005, 03:34 PM

I'm excitied to see HBK vs. Mysterio.

**Nervous Ferret** · 11-14-2005, 03:36 PM
