more detailed Smackdown spoilers....

Dot Net readers Mark Gessner and Agahzi are at the WWE Smackdown taping in Philadelphia, Pa. and are passing along separate reports that are being combined into the report shown below.

1. Batista defeated Matt Hardy. Batista won after three spine busters and the Bstista Bomb. Sloppy at times. Batista received a face reaction.

Vickie Guerrero asked Teddy Long what he was thinking by putting together the Brothers of Destruction back together. Mr. McMahon told Teddy that his decision to team up Taker and Kane was embicilic. Vince named Vickie his consultant for Smackdown. Her celebration was hilarious.

2. Drew McIntyre beat Finlay in roughly two minutes. Before the match, Drew Macintyre cut a promo saying Finlay doesn't love to fight, he loves to cry. Finlay went on offensive early but macintyre his finisher out of no where to win.

CM Punk came out to do a straight edge intervention. A table was set up in the ring with a garbage can and three buckets that hid cigarettes and booze. Punk read the Surgeon General label and ridiculed everyone for smoking anyway. Then he threw the cigs in the garbage can.

Under the next bucket was a pill bottle. He called the pills failure in a bottle. He then poured out the pills. Agahzi wrote, "That was me you heard screaming, 'No.'" Next was a bottle of whiskey. Big pop. He poured out the whiskey. The crowd booed. R-Truth came out to his music. He said Punk thinks he's better than everyone. R-Truth said that everybody makes their own decisions. He said he chooses not to like Punk. He hit Punk with a DDT, poured the trash can of cigs, pills, and whiskey on Punk, and then hit him with the trash can. He smashed Punk with it and left to a nice pop.

3. John Morrison defeated Dolph Ziggler in a best of three falls match to retain the Intercontinental Title. Morrison won first fall with rollup. He was on offense from onset. He hit a 450 splash on Ziggler on the outside. He went for Starship Pain, but Ziggler got his knees up. Morrison rolled him up out of nowhere for the pin.

Ziggler wone the second fall with a reverse STO. Ziggler dominated Morrison after the first fall and got the pinfall to tie the match 1-1 after hitting his finisher.

Morrison won third and final fall with Starship Pain. Dolph continued to dominate. After not being able to put Morrison away with a double knee gutbuster and an X-factor, Morrison hit a hurricanrana DDT. He followed up with Starship Pain and the match was over. Mark felt it was an awesome match. Agahzi felt it was too short.

4. Mickie James beat Layla. Agahzi wrote: "I'm sure me screaming made it on the broadcast. Positive." Afterward, Layla directed Mickie to the Titantron where Michelle McCool sang "Old McDonald," but included the lyrics "Piggy James" instead. They superimposed a pig nose onto Mickie's picture and even used the old Loony Tunes, "That's all folks." Mickie left in tears. Agahzi wrote: "I guess there goes VKM sending another message. I almost left after that. Enough with picking on women for their weight. I mean, ****, have ya' seen Mickie lately?? Would you kick her out of bed?? Me neither. Tasteless."

Meanwhile, Mark wrote: "Stupid video afterwards with Michelle McCool on a farm calling Mickie a pig. At least James isn't void of charisma."

Batista came out to do commentary for Mystetio vs Tyson Kidd.

5. Rey Mysterio fought Tyson Kidd to an apparent no-contest. Batista sat in on commentary. Kidd dominated early but Rey made a comeback with his flashy offense. Kidd bailed to ringside when Rey went for a 619. Mysterio climbed the turnbuckle and was set to dive outside, but Batista threw Kidd out of the way. The ref called for the bell, but no announcement. Rey attacked Batista. When Batista went after him, Rey was one step ahead and avoided him.

Backstage, Jerishow bickered while trying to get on the same page. Show left and turned out the lights. Jericho panicked, thinking it was Taker.

6. Undertaker and Kane fought Big Show and Chris Jericho to a no-contest in a non-title match. Kane and Taker dominated early on. Big show and Jericho came back and beat down Kane. Kane was able to make the hot tag to Taker, who beat the hell outta Jericho and hit old school. The match broke down to ring side. Kane and Taker took apart the announcers table and were going to double chokeslam Show thru it.

Jericho jumped off the apron and hit the them to stop the chokeslam attempt. Taker and Kane no sold and went into the ring with Jericho and surrounded him. Kane hit him with a chokeslam. Big Show came back into the ring, took out Kane and chokeslammed Taker. Show helped Jericho to his feet and then Jericho ht him with the Codebreaker. Jericho took the World Hvt. Title belt and left the ring. He closed the Smackdown taping by holding up the championship on the stage.

Dark Segment

After the taping Jericho went backstage and CM Punk ran out to the ring and attacked Taker. Batista came out and continued the beat down on Taker. When Undertaker started to come back, Jericho came out and hit him with the belt. The three continued to beat him down until Kane came back and cleared house. The Brothers of Destruction hit stereo chokeslams on Batista and Punk and then double chokeslammed Jericho to close the show. Fun night.

Penn

Seems like they're starting to have a little faith in R-Truth. On a Survivor Series team. Being on ECW and SD on the same week. Fued with one of the hottest heels right now.

Disappointed Ziggler didn't win the IC title.Seriously, he's been challenging for it since NOC if I remember right. Or at least since Summerslam. He needs to win it. The Morrison/Ziggler fued would have been better if there was at least one title change during it, but now after a 2 out of 3 falls, surely Ziggler can't challenge again. Even if they fought at TLC, chances are their match wouldn't be a TLC match, only the main events are.

What now Paul Burchill?

At least he was getting airtime and matches on ECW

Is their much for him to do on SD or RAW or is he gone from WWE altogether?

CM Punk V Christian would be an interesting feud (did they already feud or have a match previously)

Burchill would barely survive on SD, not with some of the new people they've brought in like McIntyre and Eric Escobar. He should have joined the Ruthless Roundtable. Even though he'd be doing f*ck all in the group, something to do for them.

Don't think Punk and Christian have fought in WWE. I think they were both in the MITB ladder match, but thats it

I'm expecting to see "WWE wishs _ all the best in his/her future endevores" pretty soon.

I'd love to see a Punk/Christian feud in the future

Matt Hardy seems to be getting buried week after week now.

DM_7

I would love to see Punk v Christian at TLC (Not going to happen)!

If Truth v Punk ran a few weeks till that PPV i wouldn't mind. The time Punk is getting on TV while being kept away from Taker really has my hopes up he could be winning the rumble. I don't expect it but would love to see it!

Who cares about Paul Burchill, all that matters is Katie Lea.

She is wasted on ECW to be fair.

Punk, Jericho or one of the Legacy boys must be favourites for the Rumble

Ziggler again How can anyone take him seriously when he can't win?

DM_7

Just watching ECW

Punk v Christian

WWE have to give us that feud. They have to.

It would make perfect sense to do it at TLC. Taker aint going to do a great TLC match in his shape. Don't see any competition for Cena on RAW that could do a good TLC match.

They need a to remember and Punk v Christian could be it.

its not gonna happen.

chopperbyrne

Didn't like the Mickie/McCool segment.

Can we not stop this "Taker is finished" arguement? Seemed to be moving very well around the ring against Jericho....

I've read one blog muse that one idea is them coming back with masks and continuing their feud with The Hurricane.

As seen this past Tuesday night on ECW, Paul Burchill lost a "Mask vs. Career" match to The Hurricane. As a result, Burchill and his sister, Katie Lea, were forced to leave the Land of Extreme. They are not expected to be held off television for long as WWE plans on having them re-join the RAW brand.

Christian calling CM Punk a nerd LOL

Hopefully once Punk and R Truth are finished we can see Punk and Christian feud

Machismo Fan

Lance Hoyt looked less generic this week, yay. Both non-squashes on ECW this week were pretty good.
