Dark Matches:
Jesse and Festus Daulton defeat local jobbers. Decent match, crowd was way over on Daulton bros. Festus spent half the match trying to locate the ring apron (it's Mike Knox by the way, for those of you unsure about that)... finish saw Festus hit a modified flapjack powerslam (inevitably will have its own new name) followed by a splash for the pin by Jesse. Jesse is tiny, maybe 5'7".
Chuck Palumbo beat Paul Burchill with an inverted snapshot (also new named finisher). Palumbo rode around the ring on his bike ala Undertaker and DOA. Palumbo controlled match.
Smackdown!
Batista defeated Domino. Mad support for Batista. His pyro filled the arena during much of the match. Finish was botched cuz Batista didn't sit down on the Batista bomb, pinned Domino, then picked him up and did it the correct way after creating carnage with Deuce's body. Look for editting. No wonder Batista is still on Smackdown!
Khali hit the titan tron and his interpreter translated his jibberish, ultimately leading into a Ric Flair highlight (however, they accidentally showed the khali claw on flair DURING the first match so when the highlight came on the tron, it was Hornswoggle and Noble. Confused the heck out of the audience.. they pretty much died off.
Chimel introduces former World Champion Rey Mysterio and Chavo comes out dressed as Rey. Starts cutting a great promo (that the audience gave mega heat for) saying how he never wants to get in the ring with Chavo.
Chavo Mysterio...err.... Guerrero defeats Eugene via frogsplash. Chavo took off the rey mask half way through, and Eugene even hit a three amigos (another superstar he steals signature moves from.. and this one happens to be dead).
Backstage: Victoria and Kenny Dykstra are playing lovey dovey when Michelle McCool gets in their business telling them to get a room.
Henry squashes jobber... gets on the mic and points out "this is getting very redundent", Henry is the man despite what anyone says. Druid music hits and one lone druid walks from ringside to the back. Undertaker on the horizon for Unforgiven.
Victoria w/ Kenny Dykstra defeats Torrie w/ Jimmy Wang Yang (kinda). Wang Yang must have made his way to the back at some point along with Dykstra. The finish saw Victoria hit the widow's peak for the pin and proceeds to wail away on Torrie after the match. McCool makes the save and walks to the back with Torrie (and no Wang Yang)
Matt Hardy defeats Finlay via count out. Decent longer match, well paced.. hornswoggle appears and momentarily distracts Hardy. Noble comes out in typical "Git'r Nidia" style trying to beat down Hornswoggle when Finlay intervenes. Hardy school boys Finlay for a 2, right as Hornswoggle retreats to the back followed by Noble... followed by Finlay. Hardy was also very over.
Backstage: Noble walks up to Shannon Moore and Funaki, asking where Hornswoggle went, Finlay walks up and gets in Noble's face. Noble says "you can't do anything cuz there's three of us (w/Moore and Funaki) and only Finlay by himself. Moore and Funaki laugh at him... Finlay pushes Moore's coffee out of his hand to get closer to Noble but reluctantly splashes the coffee on Kane. Kane chokes out Finlay and throws him against a stack of tables.
Kane defeats Sylvan (back on Smackdown!) via chokeslam. as Kane ignites the fire from the 4 turnbuckles, Finlay storms the ring and lays into Kane with a dozen shillelagh shots.
Backstage: Vicki is reminiscing with Teddy Long. Tells him if he needs it, she has a little pill of Viagra for him. Long reluctantly takes it so she doesn't feel bad.
Master's hosts his Masterlock challenge. Had some guy get in the ring and say he just got out of jail for manslaughter (plug to the youngstown crowd, they hear that all too much) but picked another smaller guy and Masters squashed him flat.
(NOTE: the titantron leaked the finish of the CM Punk/Morrisson 15 minutes match because it had their match advertised on the screen.. won't make a difference for TV purposes)
Backstage: Flair tells Batista last week Khali treated him like a rag doll and he's no one's rag doll.
Main Event: Khali beats Flair with the same Claw from last week. Wouldn't let go. Batista ran in and attempted a Batista bomb but Khali reversed and put Batista down as well with the very same claw. Smackdown goes off the air with Khali holding up his title.
