"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.

And then they had a little giggle to themselves which reminded me of the two in Dude Wheres My Car. Sorta spasticated laughing.

Milena's carrying that team anyway :-D

"At the GAB, it's gonna be MnM against the Road Warriors."

"Hey, wait, we can't, his tag partner's dead."

Nitro's not bad, not as good as his partner perhaps but I think MNM make a good tag team...shame they got no competition. What did Nitro say?

That comment was really horrible. Just goes to show how god-awful the WWE has become at times.

Lacking in taste and decency but then we've come to expect that now from Vince seeing as that apparently generates ratings (obviously old Vinnie Mac is still reading the old 1998 figures)

Not surprising though really considering Hawk used to love slating Vince, you only need to watch their shoot interview on TWC to see that. I doubt it bothered Animal anyway considering he and Hawk accomplished more in their careers than Nitro could ever hope to achieve in 200 lifetimes

Tasteless though it was, it would have been run by and seemingly approved by Animal before the promo was given, so I'm sure he wasn't shocked or really that offended by it.

And yes, WWE doesn't know what "taste" and "decency" mean these days, but so what? That'd get in the way of good ratings, right? Right?

as mentioned, he's arsed it up a good few times, but the jericho one was hilariously bad.

it's a straight front bump from standing to the mat, it's something you learn on your first day, you CAN'T take it wrong.

that's because london doesn't have a good few years of substance abuse playing games with his body. Juvi was booted off a few WCW tours for being utterly wasted on various things i seem to recall, that can't be good for coordination. it looked hella nasty but apparantly London's ok.

and whoever said the rest of smackdown was crap was entirely right. after MNM's little comment about Hawk i'm begining to wonder if WWE even knows the meaning of loyalty and decency :(

I used to think he was rubbish at that...because he was...but he managed to do it fine this week on Smackdown (which before you say...i agree is not a huge achievement for a World Champ, but at least hes getting better :D )


EDIT: On another note...I really didnt appreciate the comment from MNM about the dead Road Warrior. I know they are acting but it is disrespectful to the dead Hawk and it must have really hit a sore spot with Animal.

Haven't seen anyone on the forums proclaim Juvi to be perfect
