Vince is 10 years behind pop culture, so no, he probably just saw an episode of Martin a couple weeks ago.

So it's more of a "Candid Camera" sort of thing, then?

E: I know, that's why I made a point of saying "whoever"; maybe another writer gave it to him and told Vince it was a good idea, trust me?

Brandon, you put Pat White down this instant young man!
It's honestly probably something Truth does in the back to goof around and then someone said "Hey, that's funny, let's put it on TV."

If he was eating watermelon and Jim Crowing it up, then it would be offensive. This is just him acting like a crazy person.

My sister had some friends who went to the Miami Smackdown and said Hardy was lying on the ground for a long time. I don't know whether they meant after the 4-way or the dark cage match with Punk. I know a few of you went so was Hardy hurt legit?

Haha no your sister is a mark. He was lying on the ground a long time to sell the Walls of Jericho. This led to a hilarious moment where they announced him for the dark match, he got to his feet, did a sort of cartwheel, then fell back on the ground to continue selling the walls of jericho.

RE the SD spoilers: I can't believe it took me this long to figure out, but I'm pretty sure they're just trying to make it look like CM Punk doesn't deserve the title at all! Great heelin'.

Seriously! It's an interesting heel strategy.

yea ok

quote:

* Jim Ross comes out to a huge pop while Todd Grisham receives some heat.

* A replay video package of CM Punk vs. Jeff Hardy at Night of Champions is shown.

* The opening pyro hits as the local crowd explodes.

* Jeff Hardy comes out to a massive pop to start the show. He addresses the crowd by saying this is a dream and don't wake him. He thanks everyone who stuck with him and says that CM Punk said some rotten things. Hardy says the only thing he's high on is being your World Champion. He then mentions John Morrison and says he plans to give him a fight because his title reign was too short last time. John Morrison vs. Jeff Hardy is announced as tonight's main event. Cryme Tyme comes out and celebrates with Hardy. As Jeff walks to the back, Cryme Tyme prepares for a match. A replay from last night's Raw is shown.

* Cryme Tyme b. The Hardy Dynasty to face Y2J & Big Show at SummerSlam.
- The winner gets a title shot at SummerSlam. Shad and DH Smith start the match off. The crowd is behind Cryme Tyme. JTG hits a swinging neckbreaker for the win via pinfall. After the match, Big Show and Chris Jericho come out toe major heat. Jericho warns them that things are going down hill. They continue to exchange words back and forth promoting their match at SummerSlam. Finlay & Rey Mysterio vs. Dolph Ziggler & Mike Knox is announced for later.

* Melina & Eve b. Michelle McCool & Layla

* Backstage CM Punk cuts a promo.

* Rey Mysterio & Finlay b. Dolph Ziggler & Mike Knox
- Rey gets the win via pinfall on Ziggler.

* John Morrison vs. Jeff Hardy for the World Heavyweight Championship
- Morrison makes his entrance to the ring first. Out next is the World champion, Jeff Hardy. And the match is officially underway. Great back and forth match. Jeff Hardy hits Twist of Fate, a second Swanton and gets the win via pinfall. After the match Punk comes out clapping his hands. He raises Jeff's hand, pretends to cut a promo and then hits Hardy in the head with the mic to end this week's SmackDown.

That set of spoilers is missing Khali/Haas but that didn't technically get started since Kane was hiding under the ring but Khali saw him before the match began.

Preface: I started watching SD again after WrestleMania. Since then, the spoilers have always made it out to be literally a 30 minute show that is underwhelming as gently caress, but thats because none of the amazing poo poo gets conveyed through written words. When SD-day finally rolls around, the show is just incredible. I am not even worried about 4 matches, because I just know that all of them (:siren:even the divas match:siren:) will be awesome.

And that is why SmackDown loving owns qtiyd

I was at the show last night in the 2nd row. Punk beat the poo poo out of Hardy after he hit him with the microphone and is pretty much a full blown heel now. He actually started and stopped beating him on multiple occasions, not sure how much is going to make it on TV.

The show was pretty decent, however I missed most of ECW due to slow concession lines.

Has Morrison's promo skill improved any or was it too short to tell?

Answering my own question here. He's trying a bit too hard to be a face. Pandering a little too much and being smiling babyface. Great match with Jeff, though.

You can't mix Blues with Old Tyme Rock And Roll. This sounds pretty terrible but we'll see!

If they put the Big Show's vocals on top of Jericho's instrumental, that could be interesting.

It was a good ending. Fantastic match between Hardy and Morrison. Punk's attack afterwards incorporated the Danielson elbows and he kept coming back. Punk's rematch is next week so I'm thinking Jeff/Morrison/Punk for SummerSlam.

Maybe since they had Punk use the elbows, they're going to have him use them instead of the vice at Breaking Point.

Judging by the troubled history of the Unified Tag Titles so far, if they don't win at SummerSlam one of them will probably turn on the other and dissolve the team.

I'd mark for a worked injury angle with Big Show, and a storyline where nobody wants to be partners with Jericho because when he has them, the belts are cursed.

- They did an Abraham Washington segment with Shelton Benjamin and Zach Ryder and they got into a brawl.

*Ezekiel Jackson won a squash.

*Sheamus defeated Goldust. Sheamus began running down Goldust after but Dust attacked him from behind and they scuffled briefly.

*They aired a promo with Tommy Dreamer saying he was going to win the ECW title back tonight in his match and in front of his people.

*They showed ECW champion Christian Cage walking backstage carrying a car door in preparation for his Extreme Rules bout.

*Dreamer pushed out a hot dog cart with weapons. Cage had his car door. Lots of plunder early. Christian was tossed into the crowd. He hit a dropkick off the rail into a trash can Dreamer was bringing to hit him with. Cage went for a tornado DDT but Dreamer reversed it, sending Cage down onto two trash cans. Dreamer tied Christian to the tree of woe and put a can over his face, then smashed it with a crutch. Cage went to ram Dreamer with the car door but Dreamer punched him. Dreamer went for a piledriver on the car door but Cage reversed into the Killswitch and scored the pin. Real fun match and a lot more plunder then you'd expect from PG WWE. Good stuff here.
