    Hopefully Punk goes over strong, beating Hunter clean with the Pepsi Plunge!

    love this to happen just to see peoples reaction and a rock promo should be awesome hopefully some other good matches on the show too

    i have a feeling that something will happen to taker here in regards to his match with punk and vince being behind it. i would have said dx would turn on him due to his most recent fued with michaels but they are merchandising cash cows and raw is a little thin on main event faces.

    but i would expect something to occur to escalate the storyline here.

    i dunno why but i just get the feeling it will.

    there are rumours appearing on every site about
    bret hart returning
    , would be great if it happened on this show (hell it would be great if it happened at all)

    would be the mark out moment of my life.

    so unlikely to actually happen though.

    Was bret ever on smackdown?

    I would think the rock making a promo is big enough considering it was his show.

    yep.

    if it's an old-school promo, i'll mark out unashamedly for that on its own.

    he did more than just hint at it....now THAT would make me tune in, i think we can see from that promo that he was allowed write his own script (it looked that way at least) it was amazing to get an old school promo out!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,054 ✭✭✭D.Q


    :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,093 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Any proper full spoilers been released for this yet?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,492 ✭✭✭EdK


    The Decade of Smackdown special starts off with Jim Ross and Todd Grisham inside the ring talking about their ten year anniversary and how the party has begun. They showed clips of numerous talents from all three brands backstage at a party.

    *Batista pinned Kane.

    *Backstage at the party, Teddy Long is seeing and greeting people. Michael Cole sees Finlay and calls him "Vintage Finlay." Teddy Long bumps into Vickie Guerrero, who has short hair. She introduces him to her new boyfriend Eric (I believe Eric Escobar from WWE developmental). Vickie said she's back.

    *Hornswoggle kicks Michael Cole in the shin. Everyone is allowed into MVP's VIP area except Zack Ryder. Iron Sheik is there.

    *Video package remembering Eddie Guerrero. It was really well done and got a huge reaction.

    *Dolph Ziggler & The Miz defeated WWE United States champ Kofi Kingston & WWE Intercontinental champ John Morrison. Jack Swagger did commentary at ringside.

    *More party nonsense including Yoshi, Funaki and Jillian doing karaoke, The Iron Sheik choking on food, Hurricane gives him Heimlich maneuver. Jericho and Show walk into the party, Michael Cole throws up from drinking

    *Taped Rock promo. They're doing like 5 or 6 takes. He makes a random comment asking who Dolph Ziggler is. He then goes on to do the "Finally the Rock has come back to Smackdown" and talks about being there since the beginning. The crowd chants his name, etc. He talks about CM Punk, says he should be called BM Punk (bowel movement). He talks about making history with Taker, tells a camera guy to shave his chest, talks about Hell in the Cell and says maybe its time he guest hosts Raw. The crowd went nuts for that.

    *WWE Women's champ Michelle McCool defeated Melina in a Lumberjill match when Beth Phoenix interfered.

    *Backstage Undertaker promo. He said that after the beating he gives CM Punk Sunday, Punk will crave the pills and alcohol he claims to despise.

    *Drew McIntyre proposes a toast to himself at the party. Ron Killings attacks him and they brawl. It gets broken up and Teddy Long declares the party over.

    *WWE champ John Cena & DX & Undertaker defeated World champ CM Punk & Legacy & Randy Orton when Taker pinned Orton. They dumped TONS of blue and white confetti in the Arena to celebrate the anniversary and close the show.

    Smackdown 10th Anniversary spoilers to air Friday 2nd of October, Saw most of the Rocks promo on youtube, very entertaining

    maybe he is a git so...

    He did it at the Hall of fame last year, teased matches with Cena one last one with Austin etc but really he's only telling fans what they want to hear, Raw guest host is alot more plausible though

    So with Kofi Kingston being announced as being from Ghana, West Africa are we all going to be asked to forget that the character used to be Jamaican?

    Hopefully!

    Grisham just said he is from Ghana but spent lots of time in Jamaica.


    I think its the best thing to do. He needs to be able to speak and he would be held back if he had to keep up a bad jamaican accent.

    Thank god the Jamaican character is coming to an end.
    Its like having charlie chaplin in the wwe, I can't beleive he hasn't gave it up before this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,199 ✭✭✭G-Money


    I thought he was from Jamaica too, so he's from Africa now?

    So I guess The Rock is going to be a guest host on Raw soon then.

    This is what pisses me off about WWE. There is no foresight. I can see the same thing eventually happening with Santino, possibly dropping the Italian act and becoming plain old Matt Whateverhisnameis. Its insulting to peoples intelligence. We've already heard the guy talk in a Jamaican accent are we to believe it is now being phased out? I love(d) wrestling but even the fakeness is becoming fake.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,443 ✭✭✭Red Sleeping Beauty


    Ah twas good to see the Rock again. I was fed up of his intermittent scheduling a few years ago but after not having seen him on telly since 2004 it was fun. I'd like to see him in a programme again. vs Undertaker at the next mania anyone ? What about Michaels ? An angle to put Orton over perhaps ?

    All highly doubtful but ah sure

    I was teary eyed when i saw the Eddie tribute video ( i see Benoit and any of his moments with Eddie were left out)

    It was great seeing The Rock back


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,115 ✭✭✭✭cena


    yeah that eddie video had me a bit teary as well. really nice touch


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,443 ✭✭✭Red Sleeping Beauty


    There isn't a kinda best of Smackdown thread here is there ? or this the de facto one ?

    I saw the Smackdown DVD and relived some nostalgia. Smackdown was a great show. It often furthered angles that had started on the previous raw. Things like Mankind's "metamorphosis" into Cactus Jack for instance.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    The Rocks promo was awesome (quelle surprise :pac:) and it was good seeing him again, if he hosts Raw the ratings for that show will go through the frigging roof. If Vince had used people like him, Austin and the likes as well as DiBiase and Rhodes as guest hosts rather than people like ZZ Top and the likes who are just hocking crap that idea would have gone brilliantly imo rather than just being a total pain in the arse and a waste of space.

    Am I the only one who thinks it's kinda bad taste having Vickie introduce her new "boyfriend" on the same night as an Eddie tribute was being shown? I know it's all storyline and yada yada yada but just seems a wee bit disrespectful to both Eddie and Vickie to me

    yes i agree it wasnt very respectful especially since she was shown in the tribute video

    btw she looks terrible now even worse than before

    So I guess The Rock is going to be a guest host on Raw soon then.

    Talk around WWE is that The Rock is set to host the first Monday Night RAW of 2010 from Dayton, Ohio on January 4th. The Rock’s Tooth Fairy movie comes out in late January while Planet 51 comes out in late November of this year so he might have two movies to plug.
