WWE Friday NightSmackdown 4/24/09 Review

Edge started the night with an in ring mic and started to random talking crap. Edge claims that there will be a final end at the ppv this weekend.

Matt Hardy & Kane defeated Jeff Hardy & C.M. Punk

Matt and Jeff didn’t star this thing, with Jeff staring against Kane. Matt Hardy then took advantage of Jeff’s tiresome battle against Kane, jumping in and hitting as many of his moves as he could, forcing Hardy to try and simply survive. For having so much talent in this match, it really as slow to build anything worthwhile, as the match got a little boring. A Whisper in the Wind grounded Matt and Punk fought off Kane outside of the ring, leaving the two brothers in ring alone. Jeff got shoved into Kane, who was on the apron, and Matt rolled up Jeff for a pinfall victory yet again.

The Big Show defeated The Undertaker

The Big Show and The Undertaker put some stupid wrestling match on. This match was dumb, slow and stupid. The Undertaker had a few shots in, but it was The Big Show hitting two right hands and The Undertaker looked dazed and the referee called the match. STUPID! The Undertaker has wrestled Big Show many times and many times before has choked him out, but this time he acts punch drunk and stupid. Thanks WWE you have insulted the fans this time. But, that’s fine, I hear Undertaker is on his last ride with the WWE.

Maryse defeated Gail Kim in a Divas Championship Match

Maryse was in control of this match early on, with several rest moves on Gail Kim. Maryse is not that great of a wrestler and it showed a lot during this match up. Gail Kim hit an impressive Huricanrana but couldn’t get the pinfall. She then went to the top rope as Maryse was trying to leave the match and forfeit, retaining her title, but things got turned around as she lured Gail Kim away from her game plan. Maryse hit her ddt finisher and won via pinfall.

MVP defeated Chavo Guerrero

This was just another example of Chavo Guerrero getting jobbed out. Chavo didn’t get much offense in, MVP had full control at all times and hit his finishing move and it was over. What a waste of time.

Post match, Dolph Ziggler came out to challenge MVP for a title shot sooner than later.

Batista & Shane McMahon defeated Priceless

Shane McMahon shouldn’t be wrestling. However, he does play up the face in peril, with Priceless using him as a punching bag in the ring. Batista and Shane were working well together and before the primary commercial break, they were cleaning house. They were fighting well and clearing the ring with lots of power moves from Batista and fast connecting rights and lefts from Shane. When we returned from the commercial break the match broke down and Shan McMahon was isolated for easy pickings by Priceless. Batista snuck in for a spinebuster behind the Referee’s back and Shane picked up the pinfall win!

Overall the WWE Smackdown show wasn’t that bad. It had a few good matches, but a lot of it was nothing you should be too concerned about. For being the last show before the big ppv, the wwe didn’t really capitalize, so I hope the ppv lives up to the hype, otherwise we’re looking at another mediocre ppv from the WWE.
