WWE Smackdown spoilers from Uncasville, CT
Dark match:
-Aaron The Idol Stevens beat Scotty 2 Hotty - simple dark match. Stevens had two women, Shelley and Beth.
Velocity:
-Simon Dean beat Brian Kendrick. Said to be a pretty entertaining match.
Paul Burchill beat a local jobber. He did a move that was like a backwards Canadian Destroyer from the Flatliner promotion.
-Jamie Noble beat Paul London in a really good match.
-LOD beat Nunzio and Vito |

Smackdown:
-Backstage segment with Booker T and Benoit and Booker T was in crutches. Booker was complaining that the series should end and he should win for having the higher score. Teddy Long says he has to forfeit the match and give Benoit the win. Booker then wanted a substitute, so Teddy Long said OK.
Matt Hardy beat JBL via countout when The Boogeyman came and stalked JBL and JBL ran through the crowd. This was said to be not a very good match.
-Mexicools beat the Dicks.
-Another video segment with Orlando Jordan volunteering to be the substitute, and Booker and Sharmell laughed at him, knowing that he'd tap to Benoit again. Orlando said he would remember that.
-Next was a press conference by Melina with a podium and fake reporters. She was upset about what happened with Batista and she was gonna sue for sexual harassment. It was said to be really dumb and went on way too long. It got the most heat of the night, but probably not for good reasons.
-Booker approached Randy Orton to be the substitute and end the year on a high note, and Orton agrees.
-Chris Benoit vs. Randy Orton. Booker and Sharmell did commentary. Pretty long match and mostly scentific. Orton worked over Benoit's arm for most of the match. Benoit did the three amigos at one point. Benoit got Orton in the crossface, but then Sharmell hit Benoit with one of Booker's crutches, not realizing that she accidentally gave Benoit the win via DQ. Booker yelled at her after the match. Benoit was watching them, and then turned around into an RKO.
-WWE Cruiserweight champion Kid Kash had an interview segment with Funaki. Kash was asking Funaki if there were any American cruiserweights. He then bad mouthed Mexicans. Kash said he was the best cruiserweight champion ever. Kash attacked Funaki and gave him a brainbuster on the platform.
-Bobby Lashley beat Sylvan by countout when Sylvan ran off to protect his face. Lashley has pyro now.
- Video segment for the return of FIT FINLEY.
-The Main event was MNM regaining the tag titles from Batista and Rey Mysterio. MNM worked on Rey's knee most of the time. Batista got the hot tag and was about to win the match when Mark Henry attacked Batista and MNM got the pin. The show ended with Melina holding up Henry's arm.
-After the show, Batista and Mysterio did some poses. |

Looking foward to Noble/London on Velocity, Benoit/Orton and Batista/Rey vs MNM.
Did that just say that Fit Finlay is coming back?

The return of Mark Henry and a video package for the return of Fit Finlay.....
ok, now I'm confused.

That show looks like utter Poo-poo.
Mad Dog - December 28, 2005 06:48 PM (GMT)
I like how Batista and Misterio won the tag titles just long enough to give a PPV match no meaning and to job to the Raw champs.

Heh....Fit Finlay should'a been the replacement for Booker against Benoit. A flashback to the 1998 TV title mess between the 3! I vaguely remember Finlay's promo from back then; something like: "Booker and Benoit..you may be ready for each other, but you're not ready for Finlaaaaayyyy!"
I like these spoilers... I read 'em and get as much excitement and joy in 3 minutes of reading as I would in 2 hours of watching the thing.

Finlay will get totally buried after wrestlers start whining about how stiff he is in the ring. Plus there's not really anyone on the roster that would have a great brawl with the guy other than Benoit or Regal.

It'd probably be worth him returning just to have those two matches though.

I realize that Fit has a rep for being tough, but he never has been exciting in the ring. A match between Regal and Finlay at this point in their careers would be dreadful.

To each his own on that one, but I think Fit/Regal could still be good. But only time will tell....

Finlay should be used to teach young punks a lesson, instead of Baldcore Holly :D. At least Finlay seems like a real badass.
MARK HENRY?!?! Ugh... at least Austin walking out on WWE (good for him) post-poned it for 2 months, and his contract finally fucking ends in July 2006.
eStragand - December 28, 2005 11:30 PM (GMT)
Plus...with Finlay coming back, it opens a slight window that could allow Brian Knobbs and Al "The Dog" Green to return and re-form THAT awesome stable!
Scrooge McSuck - December 28, 2005 11:54 PM (GMT)
...(cries) Why must you say such hurtful things like that?

Only if we get another backstage segment with Knobbs whipping the Dog for drinking out of the toilets.

That should teach the WWE about signing 10 year contracts.

Just remember, it's only 7 months left.. 7 long months though.

So there is a CW champion actually on SD? Wow.
Fit Finlay! Get your ass back in development and finish training the Women wrestles! I don't want to see your face until I see Ashley put on a good match!
Aaron 'the Idol' Stevens, Beth Phoenix, Shelly Martinez and have been called up from OVW? Good for them. (Thinks to self: ...Desire is on WWE TV now. :D)
So Melina is calling the sexual harassment angle? I hope it's better than Diana Smith, circa 1996.
I actually wanted Rey/Batista to be champs a little whil longer before they lost it to the best tag team in the WWE. now, I knew they would loose the titles in something like this manner, I would have preferred it not be by Mark Henry though. Well, if he's signed an expensive contract with the WWE, the WWE might as well whore him out while they have the chance - attempt to get a little bit of their money's worth.
