WWE Friday Night Smackdown 2/13/10 Review
Rey Mysterio defeated CM Punk
A three star match if ever there was one on Smackdown. The crowd recognized it with praise for the near falls, and oohs and ahhs that are expected when dealing with these types of matches. Mysterio fought off the straightedge superstar for most of the match, but Punk was ready with counters for Mysterio’s extreme offense. The two went through some great points, and even the ending was good overall. Punk was ready to do the GTS but Mysterio managed to reverse it into a pinning combination and got the wind.
Post match Luke Gallows went to work on Mysterio laying him out with ease.
Drew McIntyre defeated Kane
Kane was up ahead in this match first, but after the commercial break Drew McIntyre had this match in the bag. He was fighting Kane like a stronger wrestler, that’s for sure. Kane get getting close to hitting the Chokeslam, but Drew kept powering out. The two landed on the outside and it looked like Kane was injured legit, but the two fought trying to get back in, but ended up brawling too long on the outside and this match ended in a double count out. Kane eventually got knocked down, and McIntyre treated Kane like a little punk. This match sucked, the crowd died, and Kane looked weak, even if he did eventually get the chokeslam.
Mickie James vs Layla
The two started a good back and forth start, but were interrupted by Vickie Guerrero. Backstage they covered her in cottage cheese. Guerrero turned this match into a handicap match…and Michelle McCool was added to the match up, even though McCool didn’t have ring gear on.
The match turned into a handicap match up.
Layla & Michelle McCool defeated Mickie James
This was definitely not going well for the champion, but she was fighting back both girls, giving it her best shot. McCool eventually got the win, and James was down again.
Batista came down to talk about why he did what he did, and wasted a lot of time. He never said a word.
The Great Khali & Matt Hardy defeated the Hart Dynasty
This was a non match, nothing big happened, and it was all just Hardy and Khali in a cluster finish and terrible match. Oh well.
R Truth defeated John Morrison due to injury
John Morrison landed wrong on his leg, and they stopped the match and awarded it to R Truth.
Edge came out and cut a promo, then Chris Jericho interrupted him and told him to stay away from him. It was boring…although it’s setting up Jericho vs Edge at Mania, that’s for sure.
Chris Jericho defeated The Undertaker
Chris Jericho and Undertaker were having one heck of a battle for free television and I liked it. Jericho and Taker really put on a quality effort in a short amount of time. Edge got involved, and the match continued, Undertaker got hit hard with a spear than a Code Breaker and he might be the next champion! I liked the finish, and I thought Undertaker was legit surprised. Great stuff here, I have no complaints.
OK, this is going to sound weird, but I didn't see Smackdown this week, and I am wondering if there was any context for Truth facing Morrison (because they are both faces).
ReplyDeleteThe context for them facing each other was that they were going to be in the Chamber together.
ReplyDeleteMorrison got injured though, so that might open up the door for HBK to weasel his way in to get a shot at forcing taker to lose the title or to get himself a shot at him overall.
Not sure.
