Friday Night Smackdown| October 28th 2005
Chaos
No pyro or anything to start the show, the arena is dim, the crowd are silent. The camera slowly moves around the building and then focuses on the entrance ramp. It locks on the ramp as a small Edge chant begins in the background. The screen lights up and Metalingus hits to a major pop from the crowd. Everyone stands up on their feet, the reigning World Champion Edge rushes up from behind the curtain. He shows off the title and then begins to walk down to the ring.
Michael Cole: Hello and welcome to another edition of Friday Night Smackdown as we make our way to the Armageddon event. Im Michael Cole, joined by my broadcast partner Taz. And it looks like the World Champion is going to kick off the show.
Taz: What a way to start here tonight Cole, with the champion in the ring. Since winning that title Edge has been unstoppable. Nobody has been able to get the better of the Rated R Superstar.
Michael Cole: Im sure we will address the title situation tonight at some point, Teddy Long has said he would be here tonight. Plus we have two United States Championship tournament matches to.
Taz: Looks like our champion has something to say.
Edge grabs a microphone from ringside and enters the ring.
Taz: Look at Edge tonight Cole, cant you see how much that titles means to him? He has worked so hard to win it.
Michael Cole: I agree Taz, Edge has done so much in this company, he is a great thing to have on Smackdown.
Slowly Edge walks into the middle of the ring, showing off the title while he does. The fans are fully behind Edge at the moment and he loves each and every second of it. Edge brings the microphone up to his lisps as the crowd quite down.
Edge: You know each week I come out here I get all the talk about, how is this guy champion, he didnt earn it. To be honest Im sick of hearing all these guys in the back like, Batista, John Bradshaw Layfield, Billy Kidman, Mr Kennedy, and Kurt Angle bitch about how I didnt earn this. I have said time and time again, I put my body on the line at WrestleMania 21 to win the Money in the Bank contract. I then waited for my time, having to deal with a crazy Matt Hardy while I did so. I have done so much for this company, I made the tag titles mean something again. Im the guy that made the TLC match important.
Cheers from the crowd.
Edge: If not for me then we wouldnt have the TLC PPV. I have changed this business for the better
but yet I still get no support from the guys in the back. I get shafted by the boys time and time again. Im sick of having to deal with people who cant just say, good luck and make us proud. How hard is it to say that?
Small pause from Edge.
Edge: Why does everyone have to fight every second of the day about how they have worked harder than someone else? Let me make this perfectly clear to everyone. You may not like it, you dont have to. You can hate it, you can love it, you can be mad but you need to realise that you cant change it.
Raising the title above his head to a loud chorus of cheers.
Edge: Im the World Champion!
Major pop from the fans as Edge drops the title on his shoulder. He looks around the arena and points to some of his fans.
Edge: You people see that Im the rightful man for the role as champion; I won this title fair and square. I didnt use a weapon, I just pinned JBL. I covered him in the middle of the ring and the official made the three count to make me the champion. A few weeks ago Batista came out here and spoke about how little he respected me. Now I have never had a problem with Batista but when you come out here and run your mouth, we then have a big problem.
A mixed reaction from the fans.
Edge: You can complain all you like Batista, the fact is you lost. You were beaten by JBL and then I beat him seconds later. The next time you run your mouth, dont think I will not come out here and shut it for you. Thats why I came out to the ring last week. I wanted you to know that I dont need to hide. I will meet you in the ring, anytime, anyplace, just name when.
Another small pause from Edge.
Edge: I stand here as your World Champion and Im proud to do it. I want to represent you the fans as a fighting champion. I want to make everyone see that Edge is a champion you can be proud of. Batista if you have a problem come down to this ring and tell me to my face. Get out here and show just how tough you really are.
Slowly Edge turns his head, waiting for Batista to walk out. Nothing happens for a moment, causing Edge to laugh.
Edge: Just as I thought
ladies and gentleman
the man who called me worthless refuses to come out here. That is why Im the champion and he isnt. This is a new era, this is my reign at the top. I dont plan on stopping anytime soon. This is the beginning of something new. This is the birth of an era.
Once again raising the title in his right hand.
Edge: This is an era rated R!
I Walk Alone kicks in to a mega pop from the fans who support Batista. Out walks The Animal who is wearing a really good looking suit tonight. His face shows a man who is confused as he makes his way down to the ramp. Slowly Batista enters the ring with a microphone in hand. With Edge leaning back in a corner Batista walks right into the middle of the ring. He takes off his sunglasses and begins to shake his head.
Batista: Fighting champion, I dont think I have ever heard a bigger pile of crap in my life. My problem isnt with you being the champion Edge; its how you did it. You couldnt beat me or JBL in a normal match. You know that. Thats why you cashed in the contract after I had taken JBL out. You need people to be hurt before you face them. Thats one of the lowest forms of a coward you can go to. Edge you make all this claims that youre a fighting champion. That youre a man who will fight anyone at anytime.
Batista moves right up to Edge, trapping him in the corner.
Batista: Then defend it against me right here tonight!
A big pop from the crowd tonight who would love a title match here tonight. Edge looks to be at a loss for words as Batista asks him again.
Batista: Come on, tonight the World Championship on the line. Edge vs Batista tonight in the main event. Show me that you are the man you speak of. Prove to me that you are the fighting champion. Show the world that Edge isnt a little boy anymore but rather the best that Smackdown has to offer. Face me tonight and show the world what Edge can do.
The announcers really want this to happen and so do the fans.
Batista: Show me Edge, show me that youre the man around here. I was World Champion from WrestleMania 21 to Survivor Series, how long are you going to able to hold that?
Edge refuses to look at Batista and this seems to be getting on the nerves of The Animal.
Batista: When you get to the top of the business like I have you find something out. Not everyone is meant to be at the top. Maybe the reason you had never held the title was because youre one of these people. Maybe Edge, you are a guy who is forever to be known as a tag team wrestler.
Slowly Batista steps back and scratches his head.
Batista: Maybe you dont want to face me tonight because you know, Ill beat you. You know I can beat you. Could it be that our champion has no back bone? Could it be that our champion Edge, isnt a true champion.
Edge: You want to face me tonight; you want a shot at this?!
The World Championship is shoved right up against the face of Batista while Edge screams at him.
Edge: You want me to prove to you and all these people that I belong at the top of Smackdown? I can beat you any day of the week and tonight Ill show it. You go get Teddy Long and well make it official.
The people go nuts as Batista and Edge get right in the face of the other. Edge and Batista both begin to mouth off but then Reality hits. The fans deliver a solid amount of heat toward Billy Kidman who makes his way out to the ring. He already has a microphone and cant contain himself before entering the ring.
Billy Kidman: Wait
hold the phone. If anyone is getting a title match, its me.
Entering the ring does Kidman.
Billy Kidman: This little marriage problem you two are having can wait for another week. Because I beat you last week Batista or did you forget? You pinned you 1, 2, 3 right in the middle of the ring. If youre being considered for a title match, then I should be to. I have made more of an impact in three weeks then you two have in the entire time with the WWE.
Boos from the crowd.
Billy Kidman: After waiting for my time to shine, I will finally get a chance. For years I have been forced to wait my turn
well no longer shall Billy Kidman be held back. Instead of waiting for the chance to come to me, Im going to take it.
The intensity gets turned it from Kidman.
Billy Kidman: So Im out here tonight to put out the challenge, I want a title match here tonight. Not Batista, me. I deserve to be called World Champion. Its something I have never done because of the people holding me back. Now Batista go to the back of the line like a good little boy and wait your turn.
Batista and Kidman begin a verbal match with the two shouting abuse at the other. The fans begin a Batista chant, much to the dismay of Edge.
Batista: Why dont we ask the people which match they would rather see tonight? Would you people like to see Billy Kidman face Edge for the World Championship tonight?
Huge heat.
Billy Kidman: Shut up, you think you people get a say in this?!
More heat from the crowd and they cant stand Kidman.
Batista: Hold on Billy, maybe they dont cheer anything. Would you people like to see Batista face Edge tonight for the World Championship?
Hell Yes and it is pretty clear that the fans want it.
Batista: I think its clear what we should have. So Billy why dont you run along and go back to the cruiserweight division where you belong. Run along kid.
Some of the fans begin to laugh at Kidman who looks like he is going to explode.
Billy Kidman: You think these people have a choice what they see? They paid to get in here and they will see whatever is put on. They have no minds to think with and they will eat whatever is handed to them. The people paid to see me, and they will get me tonight. I want a title match, so you can wait Batista.
Before anything more can be said Longhorn kicks in to the biggest amount of heat out of the entire time the men have been in the ring. Out walks John Bradshaw Layfield by himself for a change. He has a microphone in hand and begins straight away.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Cut my music, stop it.
The music is cut at the request of Layfield who continues his way down to the ring.
John Bradshaw Layfield: This is just pathetic, youre all pathetic. Not one of you should even be in the same ring as me. I won my first WWE Title inside that ring and now it holds the three little pigs. This brand has fallen because of people like you three. If it wasnt for me then this brand would be in the garbage.
Entering the ring.
John Bradshaw Layfield: I make this show the dominate force it is today. I make this show the most watched weekly episodic program each and every week. Nobody brings in more rating or more money than me. You see Teddy Long may not like me; in fact I hate Teddy Long. His decisions on every single matter are always wrong. He has no business being in the WWE and he thinks he runs this show.
A small chuckle from Layfield.
John Bradshaw Layfield: But Teddy Long does do one thing right, he keeps me on the show. He may be one of the most ignorant people I know but he is able to see how valuable I am to this show. Without me who knows what would happen.
Boos from the crowd again.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Because I make more money for this company than all three of you combined, I should get a title match if it is on offer tonight.
Billy Kidman: Hey you lost already to Edge; you have the shortest title reign in the history of this company. You dont get to come in a go to the front of the line.
The announcers agree with Kidman but it appears like JBL couldnt care less about his opinion.
John Bradshaw Layfield: And you are?
Billy Kidman: Im the number one contender, Billy Kidman.
Batista: Wait a second, who died and made you the number one contender?
All three men circle each other, with Edge watching on in the corner.
Batista: I have been more dominating then anyone on this show since WrestleMania. I should get the title match before anyone else.
Billy Kidman: I beat you last week in a match; Im the number one contender.
Before JBL can chime in with his excuse for wanting a title match MacMallitant kicks in to a solid match from the fans. Everyone who is standing in the ring turns to the entrance ramp to see what Teddy Long has to say. The Smackdown GM appears from behind the curtain with a smile on his face.
Teddy Long: Now guys I understand what is going down between the four of you. And I have been watching from the back and I think I have the solution for tonight.
Some basic cheers from the crowd.
Teddy Long: You all have a claim to a title match and with Armageddon coming up very soon, Ill be looking for a challenger. Tonight though I thought we would give this people a little treat.
Huge pop.
Teddy Long: Edge you havent defended that title since you won it, that is about to change. Edge you will put that title on the line tonight against
We wait for a moment.
Teddy Long: The Animal Batista!
Major pop from the crowd and Batista is pumped. A look of rage comes over the face of Kidman and JBL who both begin to scream abuse toward Teddy Long.
Teddy Long: I wasnt finished yet.
Everyone shuts up.
Teddy Long: Plus Billy Kidman and John Bradshaw Layfield in a fatal four way match for the World Heavyweight Champion! Now that is our main event, holla at ya boy.
MacMallitant hits over the arena as Long disappears behind the curtain. All four men in the ring lock eyes with the crowd standing on their feet. The men walk forward into the middle of the ring, with Edge lifting the title above his head to a big pop. We go to a commercial break with the ring filled and Edge showing off his title.
***Commercial Break***
Its Time hits as we return from the commercial break. We get a small cheer for Gregory Helms who rushes down the ramp.
Michael Cole: Former superhero in Gregory Helms who used to go by the name The Hurricane. Tonight Helms looks to step up and go into the next round of the United States Championship Tournament.
Taz: You cant be in this business and pretend to be a superhero Cole. Helms has seen that he needs to be serious, I expect big things from him.
Michael Cole: But Helms isnt going up against some lackey tonight Taz.
Taz: Hell no.
Live for the Moment hits to cut off Taz before he can finish what he was saying. Out walks Matt Hardy with Shannon Moore. A solid amount of heat is being thrown toward Hardy who slowly walks down to the ring with his arms up in the air.
Taz: Well there is a man on a mission as of late Cole. He has been leading Moore on the path to greatness, or so he thinks.
Michael Cole: I think Hardy is insane. He made up his own language and his own program on being human.
Taz: Do you follow it Cole?
Michael Cole: Of course not.
Match 1|United States Tournament Match Round 1
Gregory Helms vs Matt Hardy
Big match here tonight for these two men as they look to head to Armageddon. Hardy waste no time in playing to the crowd tonight, throwing up his hand and making his signature hand gesture. With Moore cheering Hardy on, the two men in the ring lock up centre of the ring. They struggle for position, with Hardy able to take Helms down into a side head lock. Even when he is fighting Hardy still runs his mouth, yelling at Helms to just give up. It doesnt take long for Helms to turn these comments into fuel for a fight back. He rolls over to the right, breaking the grip Hardy had on him. This sends Hardy rolling forward and across the ring. Quickly though Hardy gets back up, rushing toward Helms, only to be hit with a jumping thrust kick to the head. It connects perfectly, sending Hardy stumbling back toward the corner. The fans pop a little as Helms comes rushing toward the corner, going for a jumping forearm. No luck at the moment for Helms, with Hardy moves out of the way. He goes flying into the turnbuckle and Hardy counters by delivering a huge neckbreaker. Quickly Hardy grabs both legs and goes into the cover with Moore grabbing his feet for extra help

kick out. The shoulder is up, which doesnt please Hardy at all.
Hardy gets to his feet first and quickly drives his boots into the body of Helms. With his hands now around the head of Helms and the people begin to boo; Hardy drives his knee into the stomach. Then Hardy grabs the arm of Helms, bringing it around his neck. Helms goes up high in the air as Hardy for a suplex. But then out of nowhere Helms begins to go nuts with the knees to the head of Hardy. The crowd cheer at the effort being made by Helms who has Hardy rocked. Helms slides behind Hardy, pushes him forward and then executes a dropkick to the back. Into the middle goes Hardy, with Helms running up and stomping on his back. The crowd count them out with Helms pulling the top rope back to keep his leverage and position.
The official comes in and asks for Helms to break it up. He does so quickly, backing up into the middle of the ring. With Hardy still in the same position Helms comes rushing again, jumps over the top rope, hanging Hardy neck first against the middle rope. The head of Hardy flies back and Taz mentions his neck problems in the past. No time is wasted by Helms who quickly climbs up the top turnbuckle. The crowd pop and stand up for the moment as Helms preforms an amazing moonsault which connects! Helms rolls Hardy over for the cover...1

kick out! The shoulder just gets off the mat and Moore is huffing and puffing on the outside.
Right hand from Helms connects to Hardy, with the former superhero bringing Hardy up to a vertical base. Forearm by Helms has Hardy rocked, with Helms then rushing forward with a clothesline.

kick out. Still not enough as Hardy looks over to Moore, he yells for something but we dont pick it up. Moore begins to rush around the ring and pulls out what looks to be BRASS KNUCKLES. The official doesnt see them as Moore moves up to the ring. Before the knuckles can be passed to Hardy, we huge kick by Helms sends him down to the mat. Helms just right onto Hardy and hammers away with forearms to Hardy. He tries to cover up but Helms is getting each shot in. Hardy is able to right over to the ropes, pulling himself to the outside of the ring.
He falls down near the feet of Moore who protects him from any attack coming his way. Moore does his best but cant stop Helms jumping over the top rope and onto both men. Huge moment with all three men are down. Helms lands right onto both men and the official begins the count. We get to a five count before Helms get to his feet, at which point he pulls Hardy up off the ground. Hardy is thrown into the ring, with Helms climbing up onto the top rope. This time he is cut off by Hardy who sweeps the legs on the top turnbuckle. The fans all stand up as Hardy climbs onto the second rope. He hooks the arm of Helms and prepares for a superplex. The fight is on as Helms battles back against Hardy. Shots to the ribs connect as Helms is doing everything he can to stop this. A right hand by Helms sends Hardy down to the canvas, but Moore comes rushing up onto the apron causing a distraction. The official turns his back to Hardy which is something you should never do. Hardy takes the chance to shove the official right into Moore and both men go down. The chaos begins as Helms flies off the top with a forearm aimed for Hardy. However Matt is able to duck out of the way, sending Moore crashing down to the mat. Quickly Hardy rushes over, grabs Helms by the head, TWIST OF FATE CONNECTS!
The fans boo in disapproval but it soon changes to cheers of joy
Rey Mysterio comes running down the ramp and slides into the ring. Hardy turns his attention to Rey and goes for a clothesline. The attempt is ducked as Mysterio nails a hurricanerana, sending Hardy into the middle rope. This crowd has lost it, Mysterio runs off the ropes and connects with the 619! Down goes Hardy to the approval of everyone in the building. Quickly now Mysterio enters the ring, dragging Helms over the body of Hardy. He grabs the official and moves him into position as he comes through. The count begins

Winner: Gregory Helms| 08:55
Its Time hits over to arena with Helms gaining a great victory tonight. He gets to his feet and the celebrations begin.
Michael Cole: Gregory Helms is moving on in the United States Championship tournament. Helms could very well be going to Armageddon to face off against John Cena.
Taz: A great victory, hats off to Helms tonight.
Michael Cole: Matt Hardy threw everything at him tonight, he cheated, he used Moore but nothing could stop Helms.
Taz: But what about Rey Mysterio coming out here tonight Cole, after the weeks of attacks Mysterio just got fed up.
Helms begins to make his way up the ramp, high fiving some of the fans in the front row. Inside the ring Hardy is just making it to his feet and he looks pissed. The camera changes as Helms raises his right hand in victory at Hardy.
**Locker room of The Office**
Inside the locker room of The Office (The Bashams, Orlando Jordan and John Bradshaw Layfield) everyone is gathered around listening to what JBL has to say about tonight.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Firstly let me address this, Danny and Doug you two failed us at TLC. I want to know why you couldnt put two guys who have been here for a few months away. How did you lose to those two beer drinking fools?
No answer from either guy.
John Bradshaw Layfield: You two are very lucky to be with me. People would kill to be in your position, dont make me look worthless again. Do you two understand what I am saying?
They both nod and then we get a knock on the door.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Who the?
In walks Teddy Long who looks to be having a great time tonight. He holds a clip board in his hand and moves toward JBL.
John Bradshaw Layfield: What do you want now?
Teddy Long: Well Im sure youre happy with the announcement of the title match for our main event. But dont get any special ideas for tonight.
Confusion comes over the face of JBL.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Special ideas, what are you talking about. The only plan I have is to become the NEW World Champion like I should be.
Teddy Long: Well then this shouldnt bother you at all then John, because I have made the decision to BAN every single member of The Office from ringside during you match!
Huge cheer from the crowd but JBL is going nuts.
John Bradshaw Layfield: No, you cant do that. Who the hell do you think you are? Im the top talent; you dont screw with the top talent. I should be the freaking golden boy of this brand but yet you continue to screw me over. This isnt fair damn it.
Teddy Long: I thought you had no other plans?
Burn.
John Bradshaw Layfield: Youll pay for this, Ill see it to you pay.
Teddy Long: Holla
playa!
Teddy Long exits the room having stuck it right to JBL tonight. That has got to throw a spanner in the works for later tonight. JBL shakes his head in disapproval as he just had a plan for later tonight stuffed up.
**Backstage- Near the ramp**
When the camera changes we see Matt Hardy smashing anything he can while making his way backstage. With Moore by his side Hardy is screaming out while destroying everything.
Matt Hardy: This was bullshit!
Smashing some more stuff.
Matt Hardy: How the hell did he get away with that? I had the match won.
Hardy runs into a worker and nails him with a right hand.
Matt Hardy: What were you laughing out idiot? Huh, you want some? If anyone in this company wants some of Matt Hardy step up.
He waits around and nothing happens.
Matt Hardy: REY MYSTERIO you think you can run out into my ring and attack me? I am going to find you, and when I do Ill make sure you never go into my business again. Out of my way!
Hardy pushes past another worker with Moore following behind him. We cut to a commercial as John Cena appears hold the US title. Hes on screen for little more than two seconds before the commercial kicks in.
***Commercial Break***
Michael Cole: Hello and welcome back to this edition of Friday Night Smackdown. Matt Hardy doesnt look to happy about having Rey Mysterio get in his business did he Taz?
Taz: I think Matt Hardy just got some of his own medicine and didnt like the taste at all.
Michael Cole: Well moving on from that we can report that tonight Mr Kennedy has requested time to address the live crowd here tonight. No word on what he has to say, but Im sure its going to be big.
Taz: Anytime Mr Kennedy is in the ring big things are going to happen. The guy is the future of this brand Cole, he is going to get us to the next era.
Michael Cole: I know how good he is, I just dont agree with some of the things he does. I mean he pushed the casket with The Undertaker in it down into the water.
Taz: And we havent seen Undertaker since Survivor Series. Maybe we will never see him again Cole.
Michael Cole: I hope not, a legend like that deserves to have the right send off.
Taz: Sometimes you dont get that type of treatment here in the WWE. I think Kennedy may have showed us that.
Longhorn kicks in over the arena to a loud amount of heat for The Bashams. These two members of The Office make their way down to the ring, mouthing off against some of the fans as he does so.
Michael Cole: The former tag team champions here tonight Taz, let me repeat that FORMER champions after the TLC event when they lost the titles to Beer Money.
Taz: I hate that the titles arent on Smackdown anymore Cole.
Michael Cole: You all heard the comments made by JBL who showed his dismay with the efforts of The Bashams at TLC. JBL hates when he is embarrassed and I guess when The Bashams lose, its like he is losing a match.
Taz: You dont want to make JBL mad Cole, I think our General Manager needs to learn that very soon.
Worlds Greatest kicks in to a good amount of pop as Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin rush down to the ring. Quickly The Bashams get out of the area as Haas and Benjamin slide into the ring and look for a fight. These two pure athletes look to make waves here tonight in what could be a very exciting match up.
Taz: Former members of Team Angle going to look for a chance to move up the card and get in line for a tag title shot tonight.
Michael Cole: A win against the former champions would get them to the front of the line, but you cant count out the crafty Bashams.
Taz: JBL has a few tricks up his sleeves so I dont see these two not knowing how to bend the rules.
Match 2| Tag Team Match
The Bashams vs Worlds Greatest Tag Team
This match doesnt start off straight away as The Bashams hang around on the outside. Both Haas and Benjamin signal that they are ready to go but The Bashams dont look like getting into this match anytime soon. The official calls for the bell and we begin the count. The Bashams talk between each other as the count gets to a five count. At a count of eight Danny Basham slides into the ring and this match is on. Shelton is starting for his team and he rushes toward Danny. The former champion is able to get his arms around the waist of Shelton and executes a german suplex. A Quick cover off the suplex

kick out. On the other side of the ring Doug Basham is calling for the tag, and his brother answers the call. The tag is made and Doug comes into the ring acting all cocky. He slaps Shelton on the back of the head, which causes Shelton to enrage and tackle Doug! The fans begin to cheer as Shelton goes into a mount position, hammering away with massive shots to the head. He has taken Doug down and is going nuts all for the victory. Doug tries to roll away but Shelton dives onto him again. Nothing is stopping Shelton tonight who is unleashing.
The only thing that ends this rage is Danny Basham coming into the ring and pulling Shelton off his brother. But even he goes down with a dropkick to the face. These fans are totally behind the Worlds Greatest Tag Team at the moment and the tag is made to Charlie Haas. In he comes with a major clothesline to Doug Basham.

A forearm to the back gives Danny the power here. Suplex attempt is blocked, Haas goes for a DDT, counter by Danny who throws him into the steel ring post.
The head and shoulder of Haas hit the post hard and no time is waisted by Danny to follow up. Quickly Danny grabs the legs of Haas and he pulls him back into the ring. He goes for who looks to be a firemans carry but Haas fight out of it, shoving Danny away and diving to the tag! In comes Shelton off the hot tag. He begins to clear house with a huge spinkick to send Danny down. Doug comes rushing in but Shelton ducks and throws him over the top rope.

Winners: Worlds Greatest Tag Team| 07:22
Worlds Greatest blasts over the arena as Shelton Benjamin begins to get to his feet. Both Shelton and Haas have their hands raised after getting a great victory tonight.
Michael Cole: Now that is what I call a tag team match.
Taz: Both teams put everything into this match and congratulations to Haas and Shelton.
Michael Cole: The Worlds Greatest just put themselves at the top of the tag title hunt dont you think Taz?
Taz: I dont see anyone else stepping up.
Suddenly from the crowd come two masked men who rush into the ring and attack Shelton and Haas. These two men hammer away with boots to the head and just go to town on an already weaken team tonight. The crowd then go up with one of the biggest boos of the night when the two men get rid of the masks to reveal
BEER MONEY! Members of The Church have invaded Smackdown tonight and taken out their competitors. James Storm goes to the outside and grabs a chair and sets up something big. He waits for Haas to stand before nailing a huge chair shot to the skull.
Michael Cole: What the hell is this?! How, why, someone stop this.
Taz: Beer Money has just made a huge statement. If you want the titles, youll have to fight for your life to get them.
Michael Cole: This is sickening, this is disgusting.
Taz: I think this title situation just got very interesting.
Beer Money show off their titles before jumping over the guard rail and running off, leaving their competition down inside the ring. We go to a commercial break with the announcers still giving the basic chit chat. Beer Money has invaded Smackdown tonight!
***Commercial Break***
) but a bit busy, I have read each match fully. The show suffered from the break and some of the matches were hard to get excited for (three heel vs. heel matches, if Rhyno is counted as a heel). Proph, the one thing I think you need to improve upon is your writing, grammer. The writing is a little choppy and you should look to improve upon it to keep your shows enjoyable to read. Once again, great show and I look forward to what you do next, CM Punk especially!
