The "buckle up, Teddy" segment from SmackDown! was hilarious
It was so bad that it approached a sort of cheesy good. It's this sort of thing that prevents me from liking The Undertaker, but this was just too good.
Pfft |

Yeah, i surprisingly enjoyed that part. It was a pretty weak show overall though.

I'm glad they're trying.....uhhh....'new' things...but that was fucking cheesy as fuck. I couldn't believe they replayed it so many times. It was making me uncomfortable.
Also, I was fully expecting him to say "Where to, Steph?" |

I liked it BECAUSE it was ridiculous. Paranormal Undertaker can get away with pretty much anything in his storylines.

I couldn't stop laughing when I saw Teddy's face after The Undertaker turned around.

It was funny because it was so bad. Much like those safety videos they show you when you start a new job.

And Teddy let out that little 'squeak', I guess you could call it.
I've always hated Deadman Undertaker because of stupid shit like this. Even when I was a kid, I thought he was lame as fuck outside of the Ministry and the American Bad Ass. |

Teddy should have nutted up. He's the Undertaker's fucking boss, and if the Undertaker doesn't like his decision, he can find work elsewhere.

The Undertaker had to have known that Teddy wasn't acting on his own accord. He should have been kidnapping Vince, who was also in the building that night. Couple this with The Undertaker attacking CM Punk for no reason at all at Summerslam, and he looks like nothing but a big bully. This would all be acceptable (almost) if he were a heel.

Just watched it on youtube. It was cheesy but still awesome. Would have been better if they ended it earlier.

I think they should've made it be something with Punk and Teddy planning it the whole time. That would have kept the feud going. It will continue, but I think it would have been better.

Watch next week. That's the point of a weekly episodic TV show.
Yeah, because that always works. I know Austin, Foley, and Matt Hardy all just went away quietly when they were fired... |

But is there anyone else on SD to face Punk in a HIAC that would be able WWE can promote well? It has to be Taker.

Batista could easily get the next shot. Easily.

Let's also not forget the time Taker was hiding in the ambulance when Austin was strapped in the back. He is the master of hiding in vehicles.

If you were 6'10'', it'd be easy for you to hide in vehicles too.

What wouldn't make sense? Batista just got a 'big' win over Jericho. In a couple weeks time, he could easily do more to earn a shot.

Looks like Bats is going to grab a partner and feud with Jerishow for the next PPV. It isn't in the spoilers, but after Batista's match we saw Big Show backstage glaring at a monitor and saying Batista got lucky, but wouldn't be lucky NEXT WEEK.
Meanwhile, giving the Undertaker his Hell in a Cell rematch does make the most sense from the booking end of things and from a possible draw. From the storyline, Long has just screwed the Undertaker. He's pissed and wants Punk. Why have him wait another month? If they put someone else in and have Taker screw Punk, they create two PPV screwjob endings in a row. Also, Hell in a Cell is one of Taker's specialty matches. Why would keep him out of the cell when its available? Big missed opportunity keeping him off the card, especially when it's a Cell. |

The only thing I found some sense of comedy in in that whole limo sequence was just the "stereotypical horrified look" that a lot of people get when they're extremely scared. Other than that, I see no reason why the hell they shouldn't have just found a better way to approach this, such as have Teddy apologize first to Vince and Undertaker, and then the audience in the ring, and then either have Vince:
A.) Tell him he's still on probation (MEH). 2.) Tell him he's not on probation anymore (Better than option 1, I suppose). III.) Fire Him (He's been around forever anyways, and no offense, but to me he's just getting kind of stale...it could've even led to possibly a heel GM for SD!, which if they chose the right person for the "job", it could've been awesome. But I guess that may not happen). |
