Pre-Show:

*A good portion of the upper deck is tarped off.

Dark Match:

*Matt Hardy pinned Sylvester Turkay.

Smackdown:

*WWE Tag Team champions Paul London & Brian Kendrick defeated The Mexicools. Crazy had the match won and Psicosis tagged himself in and went for a somersault legdrop that missed and Kendrick scored the pin. The Mexicools got into a fistfight with each other after the match.

Batista promo for his return in "14 days."

*Later tonight will be Booker T vs. Bobby Lashley and WWE World champion Rey Mysterio vs. Mark Henry. [Note from Mike: I smell title change, but that's just me. It certainly would make sense with Batista vs. Henry scheduled for the Great American Bash.]

*Simon Dean vs. Tatanka was stopped when The Great Khali attacked both competitors. Khali mimiced the Undertaker's pinfall of opponents, crossing Dean's arm and sticking out his tongue like Undertaker does.

*Finlay defeated Gunnar Scott after hitting him with the shillelagh. The Little B****ard tried to interfere but was tossed back under the ring by Finlay.

*Sylvan, Ambassor of Quebec promo.

*Chavo Guerrero did an pre-interview with Michael Cole "at home" talking about being attacked last week by Mark Henry and that the odds are against Rey Mysterio tonight.

*Kristal Marshall interviewed Mark Henry.

*King Booker defeated Lashley in a long match via DQ. Booker brought a chair into the ring but Lashley got it and the referee saw Lashley with it. Finlay and William Regal interfered during the match. Regal, who came out to new music, did his "All Hail King Booker" bit seemingly forever before the match began.

*Ken Kennedy pinned Funaki with a senton off the top.

*Backstage, Teddy Long informed Booker T he would face Lashley "next week" in a Steel Cage Match.

*Another Batista returns promo.

*Mark Henry and Rey Mysterio ring entrances are about to start.

*WWE World champ Rey Mysterio defeated Mark Henry via DQ. Chavo Guerrero came out and used a chair to "cheat" by tricking the referee into thinking Henry had used it on Mysterio.




-------------------------
Looks pretty decent, I'd say, although nothing special. Does this mean Super Crazy is coming to ECW?

Good God!!! Booker T v Lashley AGAIN! And then AGAIN next week?

I watched Smackdown last week -- it was just unbearable. And this week looks no better. There is just nothing happening. The Mexicools recent tensions and now breakup is the only thing I'm interested in.

Booker and his Royal Court are good for me, but they need to get him away from Lashley for a while.

Wow, Smackdown is really getting into unwatchable territory for me lately. I just don't care about the majority of the roster and they don't really do anything interesting with the people that I do like.

So is this the third week in a row for Booker T/Lashley?

Oh great, they broke up the only contenders for the tag titles.

Enough with the bullshit already. Put the tag titles on Finlay/Regal.
