- Oh, great, we open with ANOTHER rerun of the Drew McIntyre - Matt Hardy beatdown. Was that only last week? Cause I've already seen this video package at least six times.
- Smackdown is in Buffalo, New York. I haven't had any buffalo wings in a while. Mmmmm, buffao wings.
- Christian and Kofi know each other's wrestling styles because they were both in the 27-man MITB clusterfuck? Great insight there, (whiever is yelling in the ear of) Todd.
- Scott Norwood callout by Striker. I guess I should have expected that. Have I mentioned that Matt Striker is the best thing on commentary since JBL?
- BTW, spellcheck of earlier thought:
- Kofi = Kori, Kodiak, Sofie, Sofia, Korrie.
- MITB = MITE, MITT, MITZI, MITTY.
- Clusterfuck = clustered, clusters, cluster, lackluster.
- Spellcheck = spell check, spell-check, spellbound, spellbinder, spelldown.
- Whiever = whoever. :)
- So does this count as an Intercontinental Title reign for Kofi?
- So I guess the whole "Teddy long on probation" thing is still going on, even if Vince can't be arsed to show up on Smackdown.
- Christian-Kofi was a good back-and-forth match, I thought. Somehow it just wasn't as good as it was trying to be.
- Shad Gaspard vs. Jesse Guyver? This should be just as good!
- Ah, they're rerunning the clip with Rey's family and Eddie Guerrero's son Dominic.
- And now rerunning Edge-Orton from RAW. Feels like that was six months ago because of how many times I've seen the clip.
- MVP-JTG? There-s so much going on in that team - the utter failure to do anything with MVP, the uselessness of breaking up Crime Time just to stick JTG in another team, the incongruity between MVP's life redemption background and JTG's role in a team called Crime Time. So much to unpack in that team.
- Wow, Trent Baretta and Caylen Croft still exist! And they're called the Dude Busters now. Lots of ECW folks showing up on TV lately.
- Ooohhhh! Our Savior is on! Everybody put your hands to the screen - ten minutes ago. Unless you're on DVR like me.
- These twenty-minute Swagger promos are interesting, not sure it's getting him more heat but he has the mic skills to pull off 20 minutes in the ring alone and still keep it interesting. Also like the tactic of taking a commercial break in the middle of the promo to make it seem even longer.
- Did I mention before that I have absolutely zero interest in heel authority figures? Plus, I thought she resigned as GM of Raw?
- I would be shocked if this was actually the first 2-on-1 Women's Title defense.
- I almost wish I wasn't spoiled on this match so I could experience the true shock and horror of Layla as Women's Champion. At least they mentioned her last name. She's also the second Diva Search winner to win a title.
- And now I'm caught up live.
- Rey Mysterio is wearing sleeves but no shirt.
- Rey-Punk was good again, but it's starting to get worn. I hope Judgement Day is their last match for a while.
