Welcome to My (And Not Sly's) House
Friday
Smackdown
Date: February 25, 2011
Location: ARCO Arena, Sacramento, California
Commentators: Michael Cole, Josh Matthews, Booker T
Its time for the Road to Wrestlemania and thankfully this is the last time I have to say that. Alberto vs. Edge is the official main event contribution from the blue show. This could be altered though with the return of Christian on Sunday. Also we have Teddy Long back now so who knows whats in store for Vickie. Lets get to it.
We open with a recap of last weeks events regarding the world title. Edge came in as champion, the title was stripped and given to Dolph as Edge was fired. Teddy Long, the real GM returned, rehired Edge and gave him a rematch for the title. Edge won and Ziggler was fired to end the show. And people say nothing happens on Smackdown?
Teddy says Vickie gets to fight for her job tonight in the form of Vickie/Drew McIntyre vs. Kelly Kelly/Edge. If Vickies team loses then shes fired.
Do you know your enemy? Mine are people that actually believed 2-21-11 was Sting.
Rey Mysterio vs. Kane
Kane does the fire corners thing before the match. Those things are incredible live as theyre incredibly loud and you can actually feel the heat on your face. Kane gets a quick cover for two. He lowers his head though and Rey fires off some kicks. Rey tries to go to the air and is caught in a powerslam position. A shot into the corner gets two and Kane adds a body scissors.
Cody Rhodes is going to be here tonight but is apparently out of Mania. Rey fights up but gets caught in a backbreaker for two. He needs to stop this flying stuff as it doesnt seem to be working for him here. Another rana attempt is blocked but Rey puts Kane into the 619 position. Kane avoids it and hits the floor and Rey goes after him only to run into a big boot as we take a break.
Back with Kane working on the back of Rey as the masked man is in trouble. Kane drops some elbows for two again. He seems a bit off here for some reason. Bearhug goes on while Cole goes off on Josh about being afraid of powerful women or something like that. Rey escapes but is put right back into the hold and then rammed into the corner. Kane puts Rey on the top rope but gets caught by a seated senton. Big swinging kick to a seated Kane gets two.
Rey goes up and is caught by a big uppercut which is dreaded according to Booker but it only gets two. Top rope clothesline misses so Rey, ever the genius, runs right at Kane as hes up and not hurt. Chokeslam is countered into the 619. Kane catches a seated senton into a powerbomb position but Rey climbs down the back into a sunset flip but cant hook it so he settles for a rollup for the pin at 7:30 shown of 11:00.
Rey stays in the ring to celebrate but is interrupted by .Dusty Rhodes? Dusty hugs him and we take a break. Back with the fat man himself saying theyre friends and that hes disappointed in his sons actions and what Cody has been saying. Dusty wants Cody out here now to apologize to Rey.
Heres Cody in a clear mask that almost looks skin colored from a distance. He says that hes been through a lot and Dusty wants him to apologize to Rey? Because of Rey Cody wasnt in the Rumble or the Chamber and he wont be at Wrestlemania. Dusty looks ancient. He says that when Cody came to WWE there were some things they talked about, such as Wrestlemania and being a champion. Was this the wrestling version of the birds and the bees?
Dusty says that somewhere along the line Cody lost focus. With the Divas saying hes handsome and being in commercials and being on Syfy and agents from Hollywood calling him, he lost focus. While Cody was being Dashing, Miz took the WWE Title in Codys spot and Edge came in and took the world title off an injury. Then theres the situation with Rey where Cody is the one to blame. Right now though, Cody needs to apologize.
Cody apologizes to Dusty and says to Rey that hes sorry too. They shake hands as do Rey and Dusty but its a Dusty Finish to the segment as Dusty doesnt let go of Reys hand and Cody jumps him. The beatdown is on Cody sends Rey into various things on the floor. He rubs Reys face into the steel at the top of the stage and then into the mirror that Cody looks into during his entrance. Cody pulls the mask off and kicks Rey in the face, leaving him laying. That added a lot to this.
Back from a break with the Rhodes men hugging and Dusty saying hed do anything for his son.
Layla vs. Rosa Mendes
Michelle is on commentary again. Rosa starts with a Thesz Press. Is Michelle supposed to be like Paris Hilton or something? Cole of course sucks up to her as Rosa is being all feisty and aggressive. She goes after Michelle when Michelle gets in her face and a shot from the blonde (Michelle if youre not familiar with the other girls hair) ends this in a DQ at 1:27.
Laycool argues post match.
Jack Swagger vs. Kofi Kingston
I guess were back to this feud. No entrance for Swagger this week. We get a quick clip of Alberto jumping Kofi on Raw to injure his arm. Josh says these two feuded over the IC Title over the past year. You mean the title Ziggler held for like five and a half months and the Jack Swagger that was world champion for part of the summer and the Kofi that was on Raw until April and then feuded with McIntyre and Ziggler until the fall/winter? I dont say this often but Josh .youre an idiot.
Im pretty sure this is non-title. Kofi gets a boot up and hammers away on Swagger with a ton of strikes. Superman clothesline sets up the Boom Drop for no cover. Swagger goes off on Kofi again and works on the leg by wrapping it around the post. Back in the ring and the ankle lock ends this clean at 2:52. Thats rather surprising indeed. Too short to get anything going but this was nothing bad at all.
Vickie tries to talk to Teddy, saying this is so unfair. She goes into his office despite him not answering.
We recap, and by that I mean reair, the Cena promo. Its still hilarious, especially the pinwheel thing. Im hoping this leads to Cena vs. Rock but I can live with it if it doesnt. The crowd ate this up too which is a great sign.
Vickie is still looking for help and asks Chavo who says her asking for help almost makes him forget about all the times she had him get her coffee and be her gopher. Very true indeed.
Wade Barrett vs. Big Show
Corre is barred from ringside. Show throws his jacket on Cole while Cole and Booker argue over whether or not Booker should be on commentary. Show dominates to start but runs into a big boot. Barrett chokes away while on Shows back and Show is in some trouble. Show gets to the ropes and Barrett pounds away more as we take a break.
Back with more Barrett domination including a big boot to the jaw from during the break. Show fights back from one knee with big chops. Barrett gets a low dropkick to the knee and down goes Show. DDT gets two. We hit the floor and its all Show after that kickout. Barrett manages to send him into the post but Show pulls him back out to the floor and beats the count to win at 4:00 shown of 7:30.
Corre comes out but Show wisely grabs a chair and Corre runs. Gabriel takes a shot with it though and Show stands tall.
Long recap video of Taker and HHH from Monday. I liked it despite what a lot of people seem to think of it. Aww it wasnt Sting. Get over it already.
Edge/Kelly Kelly vs. Vickie Guerrero/Drew McIntyre
If Vickies team loses, shes fired. The genders have to match here. Edge starts but immediately tags in Kelly to make this girl on girl. Vickie gets beaten down and its off to Drew in less than a minute. He yells at Kelly, saying he was the only one to stand up for her. Edge hammers away but Drew takes over rather quickly. Off to an armbar to the champion while the announcers bicker about what Vickie would do if she kept her job.
Edge takes him down and adds a forearm and some clotheslines for two. The champion charges into the corner but pauses when Drew moves. Vickie slaps him and Edge walks into a big boot from McIntyre. Futureshock is countered into the Edgecution and its spear time. Vickie comes in to beg Edge not to do it so Kelly takes her down. Spear to Drew and Vickie is gone at 5:36. What is with these short matches tonight???
Teddy comes out to dance and we take a break. Vickie cries and apologizes, even throwing in some solid begging. Teddy fires her anyway. Vickie begs the referee to reverse the decision to no avail. Booker wont help her either. Cole doesnt know what to do. The cameraman wont help.
Finally she begs Edge, holding onto his legs and crying. Edge says he can help her but instead hed rather sing. You know the song I think and Vickie heads up the ramp. She shouts you just wait and Alberto jumps Edge from behind, going after his arm. Edge is left laying and I really hope Vickie doesnt come back as Albertos employee.
