Chat about Smackdown

Well they've used him to crush people who are injured before.

I sincerly hope not.

SPOILER He's set to feud with Kane when he returns

I think dirty wins are necessary, but I liked the Edge clean win against Orton as I really didn't think there would be a clean win in an all heel match.

I've got a feeling/fear that Mark Henry could make an appearance.

I think the key to getting wrestling back out of the gutter is clean wins, I'm fed up of inteference in matches and want to see clean wins rather than DQ's week in week out.

I'd love a HBK/Kennedy feud. I see WWE putting the belt on Kennedy soon as there isn't really anyone else other than Batista in the frame at the moment. Although I'd rather see this feud in the future as I don't think he is ready for a feud of that magnitude so early into his main event push.

I'd also be very suprised if the title changed hands on smackdown, but obviously there's the SPOILER Steel cage match coming up, so like I said before they might use Kennedys money in the bank after 'Taker wins that match.

Yeah, I think he's capable of carrying the brand, but only if he's booked right. Chris Jericho's run comes to mind, where he was booked defending his title mid card, and usually won by cheating, destroying his credibility.
I'm not so sure if Vince will take the gamble, and as I said earlier, I can really see HBK moving over.
If they did put the strap on Kennedy, I'd be really interested to see a HBK/Kennedy feud down the line with Kennedy picking up the clean victory at Summerslam. Or else give the ball to HBK and let him run, he certainly deserves it.

I dont think he's ready for it yet.

Personally I think it's Kennedys time for a title run, whether Batista defeats Taker and loses the title to Kennedy or Taker beats Batista and loses to Kennedy I don't know but my thought is Kennedy will take Smackdown through the rest of the yesr.

Well, we were discussing what shape the Smackdown main event picture will take now that 'Taker's injury has thrown their summer storyline plans out the window.
Spoilers were mentioned about next weeks Smackdown.
The possibility of Kennedy using his MITB contract early, and HBK or Orton making the switch were also touched upon.
