WWE taped this week’s edition of Friday Night SmackDown from the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. They taped ECW on Sci-Fi earlier in the night. Below are pre-show notes and match results from this week's tapings. I apologize for the lack of detail as we were not given a lot of information but at least we have results.

Pre-Show Notes:

- They are having an ice storm in Cleveland right now, so it might be causing some transportation problems. Our correspondent arrived several minutes late.

- According to our correspondent, the arena is 70% full. Again, attendance could be effected by the severe weather.

Dark Match:

Kofi Kingston def. Kevin Thorn

WWE SmackDown (Air Date 3/07):

The show opens with the Cutting Edge segment with Ric Flair as Edge's guest. Flair talks trash to Edge and calls his relationship with Vickie Guerrero a sham. Eventually Flair slaps Edge and Vickie Guerrero breaks up the fight.

Jesse, Festus, & CM Punk def. Chavo Guerrero, The Miz, & John Morrision
Festus hit his finisher on The Miz to pick up the victory.

A backstage vignette airs with Jamie Noble and Michelle McCool.

It is announced that Undertaker will face Edge, Zack Ryder, and Curt Hawkins later tonight.

Shannon Moore def. Deuce
Jimmy Wang Yang came out with Moore while Domino was with Deuce. Moore won the match via pinfall after he hit a superkick on Deuce.

US Champion MVP def. Batista to retain
The match was in and out of the ring. MVP picked up the victory when Batista was counted out.

Backstage segment with Jamie Noble. He says that he wants to face Chuck Palumbo, however, Palumbo is set to go against Kane tonight. Noble will face Big Show.

It was confirmed that television personality Kim Kardashian will be a guest at WrestleMania XXIV.

A WWE Diva swimsuit competition is next. Featured are Eve Torres, Maryse, Victoria, Michelle McCool, and Cherry. It is announced that one diva will be voted off each week as fans will be able to vote through text messages. During the segment, Victoria fell off the middle turnbuckle.

Kane def. Chuck Palumbo
I was told it was pretty much a squash with Palumbo walking right into Kane's chokeslam. Kane got the pinfall for the victory.

Big Show def. Jamie Noble
Noble got himself disqualified by hitting a low blow on Big Show. Big Show retaliated with a severe beat down that resulted on Noble being busted open. He gets on the mic and taunts Floyd Mayweather.

World Heavyweight Champion Edge, Zack Ryder, & Curt Hawkins defeat The Undertaker.
The only information that I got from the match was that Ryder, Hawkins, and Edge won the bought after Edge hit a Spear. It was given a significant amount of time.

Well Cherry's in it - so this is the first time we'll get a good look at her tits.. seriously, those things are ing huge - the biggest out of all the divas, I'd say..

Were the hell is Matt Friken' HARDY!!!?!?!!?!?!

wow lets seey you people defined these dirt shirt reports now because they lyed again they said matt hardy is back and would be at smackdown this week their wrong like always

I was there last night, i was a little dissapointed that there was no Hardy, and that Taker lost his match but overalll i had a really good time. It was also announced that next week Flair will face Edge, Hawkins, and Ryder in a 3 on 1 Steel Cage match.

Matt, why did you have to come out of the closet now?
