Smackdown May 16 2008

Back to home
Welcome to smackdown of sixteen may 2008 Last week we saw an over the top championship chase for a title shot at judgement day. Edge stole the victory there with help of his lover Vickie. He defeated Bastista who was the last man standing in a over the top rope challenge.  
   
Smackdown starts with a flashback. A clip is shown with the Hawkins and Rider getting the title from the Undertaker. After that we see the Vickie speech announcing the Championship chase. A short sum up is show of the chase with Batista vs Show. And Vickie coming out and announcing that Edge is better so he comes running out and spears Batista out of the ring  
    The Show starts 
Edge’s music plays. The announcer says “ please welcome the next new world champion Edge” He makes his way to the ring with Vickie, Chavo, Hawkings and Ryder also known as La Familia. But a miracle has happened Vickie is standing in the ring!. Edge grabs the microphone, and says last week we all witnessed a miracle. He did not think he was going to make it to the chase. But with the support of his Familia he made it Vickie made that for him. He says he is going to be the new heavy weight champion. According to edge this is because the undertaker is not allowed to use his submission hold. Also that hold is the only thing that made the undertaker win! Edge is doing his role he generates heat from the crowd. They chant you suck among other less nice things. Now Teddy Longs music plays I was wondering why he was not pushing poor little Vickie. Vickie looks very surprised as Teddy makes his way to the ring.  Teddy says I am sorry I am late, Vickie says you are my assistant you are here to fulfill my needs and how does teddy have the nerves to interrupt Edge. She wants him to go to her office and wait there till she is done. Teddy says that he was late because he had a meeting with the board of directors. Saying he went there because she was busy. She said I had better things to do. Teddy says I answered all their questions about the undertakers title stripping and her relationship with Edge. Teddy has a message from the board for Vickie. The board has a choice for her. She has to wrestle or she gets removed as a general manager. Teddy says and your replacement is me. Vickie responds saying over my dead body and she says Teddy you are fired. Teddy says u cannot fire me because I quit. Teddy walks away and says and by the way Vickie your opponent is The undertaker.

Winner CM Punk by GTS at .6:20 Matchrating 4/10
    Not an outstanding match but they did their best it was a good time filler. I would rather see Punk facing a wrestler like Matt Hardy, Orton or any other none power wrestler.

I told you if you were not hurt I would make you hurt. And since I know you are going to be at judgment day this Sunday. And I happen to not have any plans for this Sunday so who knows I might be there too.

Winner Big Show and Finlay by Chockeslam at 10:15
 Match Rating 5/10
    
Good work by Finlay and MVP carrying the match. It showed how limited Mark Henry is. He only did two three moves whenever he was tagged in. I guess this match was used to build up Show vs Henry but if they do it right Show should eat up Henry alive. 

Vicki and Edge are shown backstage.
   
Edge says it has to be the family I mean the whole family. Vickie says ok. She looks into the camera and starts talking. I am dismayed by board of the director’s discussion. I am doing an excellent job. I am a pioneer and a rolemodel for many women. I am a women in male dominated world. She carries the legacy of the Guerro family. She announces that she cannot stop the match tonight but she can change it so tonight’s match will be Chavo, Hawkins, Rider, Vickie, Edge and Bam. In a 6 on 1 handicap match.

The crowd starts chanting USA. USA. The bell rings. They lock arms he throws Funaki around but he locks in a judo arm lock. They get up Kozlov still has the arm locked in. He throws Funaki around again, keeps in the arm lock. Funaki tries to get out but it is not working. They get up the armlock is kept in. Funaki launches some punches and goes for the rope but gets knocked down by Kozlov with his head. He kicks Funaki while he is down. Funaki gets kicked into the ring post. A belly to belly suplex and Kozlov does his finisher.
Winner Kozlov by his finisher in 2 minutes 20 Match Rating 3/10  
    Quite boring these exhibition matches by Kozlov. I would like to see him face off against someone of his own size and power.
 

(Short clip with a look on the la familia versus the undertaker match)
 (flash back to the deuce and domino cherry maryse plot)
 

Cherry verus  Maryse w/ Deuce & Domino

Cherry fights back and Maryse irish whips Maryse into the corner and goes after her. But Maryse ends up in Cherry’s elbow. Cherry does a bulldog again and goes for the pin.

 

Winner Cherry with a bulldog in 4:20 Match rating 2/10
   
All of the air time on this match was a waste. Maryse is looking hot and knows some wrestling moves. But really what the hell is Cherry doing in the ring. She is a waste of air time. I’d rather see Natalya at least she can wrestle. Cherry knows to one wrestling move and that’s the bulldog. 
 

(Wrestlemania DVD add)
 (HHH vs Randy Orton video package) (Preview to judgement day)

    Kofi says the hardy’s are high flyers. A inspiration to kofi.

And the golden standard has no gold apart from his hair. Matt states he will show Shelton why he has the US title.

Shelton gives Matt hardy a hard blow but is countered and Matt hits the twist of fate for a three count.  
Matt Hardy wins by Twist of Fate at 7:20 
Match Rating 5/10
   
It was a good match both men tried their best to put down a good show. I think they can have a faster paced show but it was not needed. 
(A clip is show of tonights events how the match Vickie vs the undertaker came to be)
 

The undertaker vs Ryder, Hawking, Bam, Chavo, Edge and Vickie.
 
   
Edges music hits and La Familia comes out. But Chavo and Bam stop walking and they back to the locker room.  Vickies walks into the ring and her wheelchair gets pulled back in the ring. Vickie walks into the ring and goes to sit in it.  The Undertaker comes out and Vickie gets rolled into the corner and the three men stand before her. The match starts.

Vickie is in the corner in her chair with a meat shield in front of her. Hawkins and rider go for taker both get knocked down. Taker takes a step towerds Vickie edges moves out of the way and Vickie is helpless but from behind come Hawkins and Rider. Taker gets attacked by the trio but edge backs off again. Takers lifts rider and Hawkins up and throws them both into the ring post. He goes for Vicki again but hes hit in the back again. The three men knock taker down and start kicking him. Taker gets up again knocks Hawkins and Rider down and grabs Edge’s throat going for the chockeslam. But get gets hit from behind again. They take him down again. Taker goes for the submission hold on Edge. When Edge taunts him. Taker gets up and Hawkins and Rider try to whip him out of the ring but Taker gets both men out of the ring.  And Edge gets out of the ring. Taker heads for Vicki but Hawkins and Rider get into the ring again and end up getting choke slammed. Taker grabs Vickie by the throat and goes for the slam but out of nowhere Edge spears him. Edge and Vickie run out of the ring, Hawkins or Rider grab Vickie’s chair and they all run off like dogs. Undertaker does his signature finish gesture.

 

No winner at 6 minutes 50  Matchrating 4/10
   
This was not really a match but just a storyline being played out. They did a fine job but not that good. I am glad that Vickie actually got slammed to hell when the show went off the air.   

Show thoughts
 I thought this show was not even nearly as good as last week’s show. The Vickie and Edge story takes just stupid plot twists. I hope they ditch this after Judgement day and we can finally see a new story line. Because the Edge angle has lost his use for me and the Vickie angle is even more stupid.

I can't believe Teddy's gone! He was the best GM (of any sort) on SmackDown! Plus, why does Vickie need a wheelchair?

Posted by The Bloody Skullman on Saturday, May 17, 2008


Comment # 11

Vickie needs a wheelchair because she's way too lazy to walk on feet.

Yes, sorry about the name mix ups and typos. I will do better next time. It is only my second report so cut me some slack will you.

Comment # 13

Bloody Skullman, not to worry.....Teddy will be back as the true GM of Smackdown very soon. Seeing as how Vickie did NOT compete in her first ever match, and changed that match from 1-on-1 to 6-on-1......she will be removed as GM and replaced with Teddy, either at Judgement Day or more likely on Smackdown next week. Possibly at Judgement Day if Edge weasels his way to the win.

They have the world title vacant because they believe Undertaker and Edge work better in a title hunt...rather then one of them being a defending champion. Also, if one of them were to be a champion, the number of contenders are pityful. We have already seen Taker-Edge, Taker-Batista, and Batista-Edge almost to Death! Leat alone these guys have ran out of fresh ideas for these matches...so therefore I believe that having the World Title vacant, is a good move for now!

Look for 'Taker vs. Edge in either a casket match or Buried Alive match coming up. Edge and Vickie will both rest in peace, and La Familia falls apart. Edge comes back in a month with a different attitude, and Vickie stays behind the scenes and out of the story line as Teddy Long will take his job back during Vedgie's absence. Bank on it. 'Taker-Umaga feud for the summer, while Edge feuds with Matt Hardy.
