WWE SmackDown Taping Results (10/09) *Spoilers*
*Smackdown opens with Teddy Long in the ring discussing the Bragging Rights PPV. Long says John Cena
is welcome to come to Smackdown if he doesn't win the Iron Man Match against Randy Orton. CM Punk comes out and tells Long not to focus on Cena, but on him. He complains he has to wrestle Batista tonight. He demands a rematch against The Undertaker tonight and that Scott Armstrong (ref from Breaking Point) be the referee. *Vince McMahon comes out and announces at Bragging Rights that The Undertaker will defend the World championship against CM Punk, Batista and Rey Mysterio. He says the action will begin right now and calls out Mysterio for his match.... *Rey Mysterio defeated Chris Jericho in a good match with a 619 and top rope splash. *WWE Women's champ Michelle McCool defeated Eve Torres. *Backstage, Vickie Guerrero complains to Teddy Long that it's unfair that Eric Escobar doesn't have a PPV match since he was introduced on the Smackdown roster last week. She says it's also not fair that Undertaker has to be in a Four Way at the PPV. In Spanish, Escobar tells Long he won't be disrespected. Guerrero reminds Long he's on probation. *WWE Intercontinental champ John Morrison defeated Dolph Ziggler. Maria was at ringside watching but didn't become involved beyond taking a chair Ziggler had set up to "use later" and sitting on it. When Ziggler went for the chair and saw it wasn't there, he was distracted, allowing Morrison to nail him with a kick for the win. *Backstage, Maria asks Ziggler to speak to her. Ziggler tells her that he has a personal life and a professional one. He tells her he sees big things in his future, but she isn't one of them and walks off. Maria starts to cry. *Drew McIntyre & Kane defeated R-Truth & Matt Hardy when McIntrye pinned Hardy with the double underhook DDT. *Backstage, Batista and Rey Mysterio agree that whatever happens in the Four Way at the PPV, they will remain cool and hug. *WWE World champ The Undertaker comes out and discusses winning the belt in the Hell in A Cell. He says that at the PPV, he's going to win and take all of their souls. *CM Punk defeated Batista by countout. |

I get the feeling Batista might be turning heel, which would suck ass for CM Punk.

I dunno, like I've already said before, they could go the way of having Cena lose and go to SD! but then turn him heel. I think that would be pretty sweet if they did that, TBH.

I think their time off from suspension/injury might have brought them a bit too close. Might be the new Billy & Chuck style tag team if it goes any farther.

It was fun while it lasted, but it looks like Smackdown is gonna start to suck again.

I have a feeling that Rey will be eating the pin at Bragging Rights. My guess/hope is that CM Punk pins Rey, wins back the World Heavyweight Title, and continues his program with The Undertaker heading into Survivor Series (Buried Alive maybe?), and Batista feels that Rey "cost him his title," and turns on Rey -- possibly after losing a tag team match at Survivor Series.
Hell, right now, if they play it right, Batista vs. Rey Mysterio would actually make a pretty cool WrestleMania match. I can't see either do anything more important. |

Drew McIntyre is getting a ridiculous push right now. Not ridiculous in a bad way, per se.

The Ziggler/Maria storyline was rather pointless. She didn't even accompany him to the ring half the time.

This right here is a definite hint that batista is turning heel, this could be good for him/the show. But where punk fits in in all this worries me. |

They could have used their relationship for a face turn for Ziggler down the road. Someone starts picking on Maria, so Ziggler faces them. You could also have had Maria perhaps get more heelish. Hopefully this isn't aborted just yet, and Ziggler apologises next week. |

I thought this was the worst SD since I've started watching it again after the last brand split. Might go back to the spoilers only after this and watch if need be.
Jericho loses again. Yawn. Batista. Yawn. Cena mentioned. Yawn. Morrison vs Ziggler again. Mild yawn. Mysterio in the world title picture for no good reason. YAWN. Boring Undertaker promo towards the end of the show. MAJOR YAWN. |

I haven't watched the entire show, but the opening with Rey Mysterio was really weird. I don't know why, but given the way he suddenly got put in a World Title match, after losing the Intercontinental Title and a match for the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship, and Vince McMahon shaking his hand -- I don't know why, but I got the feeling that it was sort of an "apology" to Mysterio. And then Mysterio got to beat Chris Jericho cleanly. Granted, they need to put him over for the World Title match, but why is he even in the match in the first place?
Maybe I'm alone, but it just felt like the company saying "Hey, Rey, we really value you." To be honest, with The Undertaker breaking down, I would not be surprised to see Mysterio win the big gold belt at Bragging Rights. I'm not saying that I think it should happen; or even that I think it is going to happen; but if it does go down, I won't be surprised. |

Also, I'm willing to give Eric Escobar a chance. I saw some of his FCW stuff, and it wasn't bad; but so far I haven't been "feeling" his presence. Hopefully he grows into his role a bit more.

Yeah, he needs to get "less is more." I can understand why he doesn't want to just stand around and do nothing -- he's got a character and he wants to play it right -- but the reason Vickie Guerrero is there is to get heat for him. If he just reacts off what she does, and then gets in the ring and does a solid job, he should get over.

You haven't seen him wrestle yet. Reserve judgement until then.

OMG, my Bragging Rights tickets keep depreciating in value almost daily!
Watch for me in the crowd. I'll be the guy with the "If Rey wins we riot" sign. |
