WWE Smackdown - Smackdown EP. TWO UP!

My only gripe are Joe and Shelley in WWE, but I shouldn't talk.

He's a great addition to the US title division.

FRIDAY NIGHT SMACKDOWN!



On Friday Night Smackdown this week, there will be a battle royal to determine who the number one contender will be for Rey Mysterio's World Heavyweight Title. With big names like Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, and Batista, who will win the battle royal and get a title shot?

Also, the Tag-Team Champions will be in action as they defend their tag-team gold against newcomers Austin Aries and Roderick Strong. Will these newcomers make a statement and win gold their first night?

Don't miss that plus, two more newcomers will make their Smackdown debuts as Matt Bentley locks up with Joey Mecury and Nigel McGuinness goes one-on-one with Gunner Scott.

All that and more, this Friday night on SMACKDOWN!

That was an enjoyable read. One mistake though Booker T was dumped in the BR and yet still took part and got dumped again. Nice to see Sean winning.

I liked the way you wrote the show. It was good and I enjoyed some of the stuff you had going on. I like Burchill back to the all business Burchill, I enjoy Nigel McGuiness despite seeing very little of him but from what I have seen he is good and would be a nice fit in the SmackDown roster. Not a big fan of Finlay losing to Burchill as i'm a HUGE Finlay fan.

My big problem with this is that like everyone says about diaries like this...it almost seems like ROH or TNA fused together with SmackDown with guys like Aries, Strong, Joe, McGuinness, Homicide, Bentley, etc. Also i'm not a big fan of Sean O' Haire being back and getting a title shot.

I am a fan of Lesnar being back. I'm not a Lesnar fan because of how he left WWE but I did enjoy his wrestling before he left. My only big problem with Lesnar being back is he should have won the battle royal. Lesnar, Batista or Benoit I think as those 3 are the big guys that should be pushed as main eventers while you build up O'Haire and others.

Other than that it was a good show, unrealistic in ways but as i've always said...I criticize that but at the same time diaries are made to be unrealistic in some ways. Good stuff.

EDIT:

Also if you announce a match, you should make sure to follow through with it and I speak of Matt Bentley vs Joey Mercury. Its a common mistake but try not to do it more than once or twice.

You wrote the show really well. I liked it a lot.

Yea I make that mistake ALOT! So whenever I book my stuff in TEW or EWR I always keep looking back at the previews and past shows i've put up in my diary just so everything has as much continuity as possible.

Animal vs. Beast

This week on Smackdown, there was several surprises and things were out of control.

Smackdown began with a match that we originally announced for last week but didn’t happen. In the opening contest, Joey Mercury and newcomer Matt Bentley squared off. Joey was getting in most of the offence but Bentley was coming back. About midway through the match, The Great Khali came down to the ring. He then proceeded to beat down both Mercury and Bentley, causing the match to be a draw. After he beat them both down until both men had nothing left, Khali mocked the Undertaker by pinning both men the way the Undertaker would normally pin his opponents. He then was screaming “REST IN PEACE” as the crowd booed him.

The next segment was a video package. It showed the Undertaker over the past few months. He was shown laying out Mark Henry, JBL and giving the Tombstone. Then, the Undertaker’s cross symbol showed up on the screen but was then destroyed by a Motorcycle coming right through it. The Undertaker’s old music began to play again and it said “UNDERTAKER… BAD ASS IS BACK.”

Next was an interview by Michael Cole with Rey Mysterio. He asked Mysterio about the battle royal last week. Mysterio said “I was shocked to see Sean win simply because he’s only one week since he’s been back.” Cole then asked Mysterio if he was ready to face Sean O’Haire. Mysterio responded with “Well, I think I’ve got a good chance, I’ve been studying tapes on how to defeat the big man and I think my chances are good. Cole then, for his final question who Mysterio thought was going to win tonight, Batista or Sean. Mysterio said “I’m going to go with Batista. He’s a big man and he’s very mad at O’Haire for throwing him out last week.”

The next match was between Roderick Strong and Paul London. This was a good match with both men showing why they are quickly becoming some of the top performers on Smackdown. At the end of the match, Paul London was going for a Shooting Star Press but, Austin Aries came out from the back and pushed London off the top rope and he came crashing down onto the floor. He then rolled him back into the ring and Strong hit a huge Backbreaker for the pinfall. After the match, Aries came into the ring and he and Strong beat down Paul London until Brian Kendrick came running into the ring with a chair and made the save. He then helped up London as Aries and Strong headed toward the back.

The next match was the debut of Homicide. As soon as the bell rang, he quickly began to beat down his opponent, Scotty 2 Hotty. After several minutes of easy work, he put Scotty away with a Cop Killa for the victory. But, he wasn’t done there. He began to put boots to the face of Scotty and gave him another Cop Killa. He then celebrated as Scotty layed in a heap on the mat.

The next match was another debut, this time of Samoa Joe. He was taking on Jay Lethal, who was dominated from the start. After several huge kicks that almost knocked Lethal out, Joe went for the finish. He hit the Muscle Buster and then locked in a Kokina Clutch for the victory. After the match was over, Paul Burchill came down to the ring with a chair. He hit Joe as hard as he could but, Joe would not fall. So, Burchill did it again and again and still Joe would not go down. Then, Burchill launched off the ropes but, Joe caught him with a huge kick that sent Burchill flying out of the ring. Joe stood tall as Burchill was slowly getting up, holding his head.

The next match was a United States Title Match, pitting Lashley against Brock Lesnar. This was a physical match with both men showing their power. However, at the end of the match, Lashley was setting up for a Dominator when JBL ran out from the back and attacked Lashley. This caused the referee to call for the bell, ending this match. After the bell, Lesnar and Bradshaw were working together to lay out Lashley with several boots. Then, Lesnar hit an F-5 on Lashley and then JBL brought him back up and then hit him with a Clothesline From Hell. Lesnar and Bradshaw celebrated as Lashley layed in a heap in the ring.

Next, there was a video, for Batista. He talked about how he was ready to win the Battle Royal last week but, Sean threw him out. He said that he was ready for a fight tonight, to try and get some revenge. Batista said he had been training all week, waiting for this match. He said that Sean O’Haire better be ready because “THE BEAST WILL BE UNLESAHED!”

Finally, it came time for the match, Batista vs. Sean O'Haire. Both men gave it their all to try and win the match. Batista was very aggressive in this match, trying to take some of the frustration out that Sean cost him last week. At the end of the match, O’Haire was looking like he was going to win but, Rey Mysterio came down to the ring, with a chair. He was going to get in the ring when the referee stopped him. Mysterio threw the chair into the ring and as the ref was getting it out, Mysterio slid another chair into the ring. Batista took the chair and hit the mat with it, making a loud sound. He then threw it to Sean and Batista layed down. The referee saw Batista layed out and Sean with the chair, and he yelled at O’Haire. After getting the chair away from O’Haire, Mysterio got into the ring and hit a West Coast Pop and Batista covered him for the win. After the match, Sean got up and was pissed off. He got a chair and layed out the referee and Mysterio. He then hit Mysterio over the head several more times and then gave him a Prophecy onto the chair. He then celebrated as the screen faded to black.
