SmackDown! Preview and Open Thread

okay im watching the show so ill start first

cm punk is the greatest champion of all time so far. bruno sammartino and buddy rogers are both crying. :`(

also there was a coffin and teddy was bound and gagged but we dont really know what happened to him. im upset already.

MORE LATER

whoa morrison and ziggler in HITC?! i didn’t know this!

John Morrison & Finlay vs. Mike Knox & Dolph Ziggler
this was a really good, short match. knox is really the whole key to it as he just makes everything that much better because his offense is simple(re: believable) and he’s fluid enough to make fans hate the heels that much more. check out how well he stops finlay from making the hot tag. also ziggler is much better than a few months ago. i think people have gotta keep giving these young guys an opportunity to perform and give em a year before calling guys a waste of time. the learning curve has gotta be recognized. morrison didn’t do much but i didn’t mind.

slammaster j is a white guy tryin to be black caricature. i think its a little outdated in 2009. he should be dressed like asher roth, not g unit doppleganger. also the squash with kane was just okay. at least it was short.

Vince says we’re celebrating a decade of smackdown next week and i am feelin mad old rite now

drew mcintryre is vince’s new signee and i don’t really care. the highlight is k kwik ron killings r truth doing WHATS UP while being surrounded by bewildered oklahomans. these are the same ppl who voted inhofe and coburn into the senate…well, maybe not. wrestling fans don’t vote but they sure do keep their distance from african american rapping cruiserweights.

alrite im back

so i was in the middle of show batista but a brown man had to go brunch
but this was a good match
short and sweet
show was lookin agile
batista was quite minimal
effective ending with the ankle locks

btw, teddy long looked like he got robbed in the south bronx

slam master j ruinin the vinnie mac picture, HOW CUD HE??

the smith/jtg match was “eh”.

the taker punk match was really fun and promising. i even liked the chickenshit finish!
