"SMACKDOWN Thread"

Same as the RAW thread. You all seem to think it's a good idea so I made a smackdown thread. Just discuss what happens on smackdown, week in, week out. Remember NO SPOILERS but if you really have to post one, make sure you give everyone a chance to watch the show.


P.S. Lets keep this different from Your Shout.

Not a coincidence, it's called Hogan syndrome

Orton Vs Foley was good at Backlash

I've seen that rumour as well I hope it's true!

Strange coincidence he comes back every time he's got a new book to promote and then disappears afterwards? Not that I'm complaining in my opinion one of the best matches of all time was Mankind vs HHH at Royal Rumble 2000. I don't like HHH but watch that match again and again and you can't help to be impressed more and more every time!

And he is coming back soon, got a new book to sell

Is Vince trying to ban every single exciting move? Bring back Mankind to show him what we're all missing!

Why do the disband the bWo when they were so popular? Doesnt make sense!

The Blue Meanie recently wrote on his website that he still hasn't received any calls from WWE about returning, so he has already assumed the "Blue World Order" gimmick that was given a try on the SmackDown brand in July is over. There had been some false reports stating that Meanie had signed a long-term contract with WWE as well. Meanie did add that the payoff he got from WWE helped him get out of debt and he had no regrets about going back.


Given the recent ripping off of a couple of E-C-DUB!!! storylines i'd have thought they'd jump at the chance of bringing the bWo back together. But of course when you've got gimmicks like Simon Dean raking in the cash and viewing figures there's really no need for it eh?

You've had your pay-off and a bit of nostalgia Meanie, now don't think about suing us and JBL will you? There's a good lad

Well that's pretty much any tope rope offence gone then, seeing as a moonsault is probably the least dangerous top rope move to pull off (think about it... Lance Hoyt, The Blue Meanie even Big Dick Dudley ffs! could do a moonsault without causing injury...) other than, of course, the Macho Man elbow drop and the feasome Top Rope double sledge...goodbye Cruiserweight division...Hello TNA :-)

It certainly seems that way. Let's hope they maintain the trend this week.
