WWE Smackdown Spoilers 9/5/2006 (Columbus, Georgia)
Spoilers courtesy of the Wrestling Observer website:
Sorry, with the building the way it was I was worried there'd be problems calling all the time, so I tried to go with short, regular intervals.
-Henry Godwinn b Bull Buchanan. Bull tried his leaping to the turnbuckle
kick and fell on his ass. They went home and Godwinn hit the Slop Drop.
Crowd booed Godwinn. Crowd booed Bull. Crowd booed the match. Crowd popped
when it was over. ;-)
Smack Down!
-Modified open, same crappy music. The "new" people are all over the new intro.
-Finlay b Misterio clean. Probably 2 segments (commercial) and it went
about 15:00. Seriously top stuff. Misterio blows a spring board from the
ropes and then gets caught with the EF for the win. Then the JBL thing
mentioned already. Misterio walks away.
-Kennedy b Lawrence Tyler with his Samoan Drop finish. He did pre-match
talking Tyler up and said he had a major announcement. Post match he called
for Long and then did a tease of wanting Cena. He said he may go to RAW to
do it. Long said that Kennedy hadn't beaten everyone on Smack Down! and
would fight Undertaker at No Mercy.
-Kendrick/London/Massaro b McCool-Alexander/James/Stevens. Hot stuff with
Kendrick & London. Kendrick pinned James with a sunset flip/Dropsault
combo. Basically, a modified version of the finish with the Highlanders on
RAW (only involving the girls and no Haas doing a suplex).
-Lashley b William Regal with the Oklahoma Stampede. Vito did commentary.
Regal did pre-match mic work talking about the match the week before. Regal
said he'd refuse to wrestle Vito again and would be facing a real gentleman.
-The Miz b Matt Hardy with a roll-up holding the tights after Helms knocked
Hardy from the top. Miz did pre-match mike work and was schlock. Miz is
annoying as sin. Hardy is still over.
-Vickie Guerrero was introduced as Chavo's new business manager. She did
mike work and was booed. Chavo b Tatanka with a frog splash clean.
-Teddy was in the back with MVP. MVP said he wanted Cena money. Long said
something that no one around me heard but the crowd went "oooooooh" for.
MVP said Long would regret it.
-King Booker T b Batista when Finlay hit Batista with the shilleleigh.
Regal did a run in through the crowd with knux and got stopped on the
outside. Sharmell tried to toss in a chair. While the ref was dealing with
the chair and Sharmell, Finlay came out and whacked Batista over the head
with the shilleleigh. Finlay then destroyed Batista after the fall with the
weapon, then rammed him into multiple exposed turnbuckles. Crowd was super
hot for Batista. They ran a promo for the match, the entrances, then the
match as 3 segments. Counting 2 for Misterio/Finlay that's the 10 for
Smack Down!
They had some time to kill during the SD taping and had the T-shirt guy
come out at one point (prior to the Chavo match). JBL eventually got the
gun and was shooting Cole with it. He ran down Chimmel, who was jumped in
the aisleway by Johnny Ace and then shot him. Actually, it looked like
everyone was having tons of fun. Charles Robinson was the ref for
Chavo-Tatanka and was very good at dodging JBL's attack.
ECW ring change. They basically destroyed 3 seats in the front row and gave
a kid and his family backstage passes. Very cool, I thought.
