Thanks to Jonathan Sawicki of Opportunistic.org for the following:
My name is Jonathon Sawicki & I provided LIVE spoilers last night for the SmackDown! tapings. The show was alright, but let's get to it. They opened it up with 2 dark matches:
To start off the tapings, we had The Basham Brothers taking on Dennis Knoght & David Heath. Knight was formerly known as Midion and Heath as Gangrel. Of course, The Basham Brothers won. You just knew that this was going to happen as Knight and Heath aren't WWE regulars and The Basham Brothers are. Very bad match, but it was great to see Mideon . He's one of my favorite, and is now known as Dennis Knight. The fans liked him. It appears as if Dennis does WWE dark matches often as he was there when I went to RAW last year, at SD!, and a house show I went to earlier this year.
Next up we had Antonio Banks versus Norman Smiley. I watch Antonio every Friday night in MXPW, he's pretty decent. However, the fans saw him as a jobber. At first I didn't realize it was Norman Smiley, but I could soon notice. Norman got a big pop as adults recognize him from a very long time ago. Norman Smiley pulled out the victory with a submission. A nothing but solid match, I must give my props to Norman.
It was now time for Velocity:
Velocity opened up with Charlie Haas fighting Sakoda. Miss Jackie came to the ring with Charlie. This questioned me, as whether she would go with Rico or Charlie. It was a very decent match. No interference by Jackie. Sakoda put up a good fight, but Charlie took home the victory. After the match, Charlie & Jackie hugged and he pointed up at the ceiling. If you don't know, it's to honour his brother, Russ. Meanwhile, Sakoda complained. This guy is still in the WWE?
Next up we had Johnny Stamboli fighting Scoot Andrews. go watch Scoot wrestle every month at NWAFlorida, excellent mat wrestler. But of course, the WWE regular, Johnny Stamboli won. See, that's the only thing that I don't like about Velocity, the WWE guys always win. Same deal with TNA Xplosion. Just pisses me off.
The ring crew set up a big glass mirror in the ring. Teddy Long came to the ring and talked about how good Mark Jindrak is. Teddy introduced him as The Reflection Of Protection. Mark Jindrak came out, and had a very good entrance. Teddy continued to talk about Mark. Hardcore Holly came out and we got this one underway. I didn't really pay attention to this match, but Hardcore Holly won. That made Jindrak look weak in my opinion, after all the hype they gave him before the match.
Now, here's what you've been waiting for. The Live report, from SmackDown!:
SmackDown! opened up with John Cena coming out. He talked about how he was tombstoned last week and that he wants an explanation from The Undertaker. That led Kurt Angle out. Kurt came out in a wheel chair while Luther Raines was his pusher. They insulted each other back and forth. Kurt did a rap, and it impressed Cena. John Cena said that he was gonna smack Kurt Angle and that he would leave town quicker than Tracy McGrady. Kurt said that John is a bigger loser than the Orlando Magic. They always find a way to diss teams, don't they? I'm a big Magic fan. Kurt was actually impressive. Kurt Angle told John Cena that tonight, he would face The Undertaker. Cena didn't look too happy.
Next up, was the 10 man battle royal, where the winner, would face Rey Mysterio at The Great American Bash with the belt on the line. Among these men were Kidman, London, Moore, Chavo, and more. But before we could get this thing underway, the Cruiserweight Champion, Rey Mysterio came out and sat at the announcer's table with Michael Cole and Taz. Chavo Guerrero won and after the match the usual challenger-champion confrontation happened.
They showed the cement truck. Paul Heyman was shown backstage on his cell phone. He had a blue print in his hand of the cement crypt. He said that he didn't want that. He said that he wanted a cement crypt that nobody can get in or out, and that from all directions, everybody can see what's going on inside of it. It appeared as if his request was accepted. He got off of the phone all happy. The Dudleyz approached Heyman and asked them about The Undertaker doing the right thing. Heyman said he had it all under control. But The Dudleyz weren't too sure that they can trust Heyman.
They were interuppted as Mordecai attacked Hardcore Holly. They brawled all over until road agents broke it up.
Meanwhile, in Kurt Angle's office, Luther and Kurt were talking. John Bradshaw Layfield then came in. He said that there's even a bigger pain on SmackDown! than Cena and that's Eddie Guerrero. He said that Eddie should have a match tonight so that he can learn some respect. JBL suggested Luther Raines and it was made official by GM Kurt.
Billy Gunn defeated Kenzo Suzuki by DQ. Suzuki's valet threw something in Gunn's eyes. It looked like powder.
Sable and Torrie Wilson were shown arguing backstage. Sable said that it's not only Torrie promoting GAB. After the 2 insulted each other, Sable attacked Torrie.
Rene Dupree defeated Rob Van Dam. Booker T was at ringside. After the match, Dupree taunted Booker.
Eddie Guerrero defeated Luther Reigns by Disqualification when John Bradshaw Layfield interfered. The two brawled with the bullrope after the match.
The Undertaker defeated John Cena in the main event.
