Here are more details on tonight's show (friday 27), thanks to D.W. Weber:
1. Kane beat Rey Mysterio in a no DQ match with the chokeslam.
After the match Alberto DelRio attacked Rey and took him out, Rey was helped to the back.
2. CM Punk pretty much destroyed JTG in a quick match. I don't think JTG hit any offense. Punk went back to using the Anaconda Vice for the submission win. He then cut a promo to the rest of the Straight Edge Society saying basically "that's how you get it done."
- Rosa Mendes was shown back in Teddy Long's office using the shake weight. Hornswoggle was hiding in the plant again like last week. He and Teddy had a kinda funny verbal exchange, even though Horny just grunted. It came down to Teddy thinking he could use Hornswoggle to do some spy work for him.
3. Kofi Kingston beat Dolph Ziggler by countout. The stipulation was that if ziggler got DQ'd he would loose the belt. So still IC champ, Ziggler
4. Jack Swagger beat MVP in a takedown challenge. Swagger wore the amateur wrestling head gear like Rick Steiner used to wear. So Swagger gets to host the VIP lounge in the future.
5. Alberto DelRio beat a local wrestler. I forgot what name they used, but my friend identified and I remembered him as Alex Kozlov, who briefly worked in TNA.
6. Big show (w/Kelly Kelly) beat Luke Gallows (w/SES).
- Undertaker came out and cut a long promo on Kane in what will be in the main event slot on television. They went back and forth about who's more evil and who the devil likes better, and stuff like that.
Dark Match
1. Kane defeated Jack Swagger and Big Show in a Triple Threat to retain the World Hvt. Championship. Show replaced Mysterio since he was "injured" earlier. Kane won, of course, by first knocking Big Show down from the ropes when Show was trying to climb out and then chokeslamed swagger for the pin.
After the match, Undertaker came out and exchanged with Kane. They did the double chokeslam tease to each other again and Swagger hit Taker from behind. Kane escaped. Taker then tombstoned Swagger to send the crowd home happy.
Notes: The arena was really empty. The entire upper deck was closed. Fans here really don't turn out for Smackdown anymore. The Raw house show here before WrestleMania was crazy full. That Cena sure does bring the crowds.
