Falls
Count Anywhere
11-15-05
Welcome to Falls Count Anywhere! Eddie,
this one’s for you.
SmackDown!
I didn’t give SD! all my attention, mostly because
I was busy preparing for the show on Saturday. Here’s
what I thought all around: Not bad.
Randy
Orton and Rey Mysterio had a match to decide who would be
on the SmackDown! team at Survivor Series. Not a bad match,
with Rey doin’ his things. Randy used an awesome backbreaker
for a nearfall, and Rey used a Corkscrew Plancha. Bob Orton
tossed Rey off of the top rope, which got Randy DQed. It
was a decent match.
They brought out Michelle, former America’s
Next Top Model contestant, and she had Melina and MNM get
on her, which led to the Mexicools, who are now faces, making
the save. I liked Michelle and she was good in this one…or
at least as good as she could be in this spot. I hope she’ll
keep working towards wrestling. Plus, she’s bisexual,
which allows for all sorts of situations.
They did a backstage bit with Theodore R.
Long talking with Edge and Lita. Now, like I said, I wasn’t
paying full attention, but Lita was wearing a top that just
showed off all of her cleavage. ALL OF LITA’S CLEAVAGE.
I was rapt. Wow. She’s…wow…I…Wow.
Ken Kennedy took on Eddie Guerrero. I like
the way Kennedy works, and he’s just beggin’
to be put with HHH. He’s the future ready to go! It
was a solid match, not as good as the Mysterio match, but
plenty good enough, with Eddie in control most of the time.
Kennedy sold well, but the ending was a sign that they still
need a little work. They used the ‘He hit me with
a Chair!’ thing to get Kennedy DQed. This was Eddie’s
last TV match.

This
gets Garcia's attention. |
Midgets wrestled. I don’t like the
way they are using the midgets.
JBL
wrestled Chris Benoit. The two of them are so mismatched.
JBL is big and slow, but has a lot of personality, and Chris
Benoit is a great wrestler. No, a GREAT wrestler. Booker
was doing commentary, so I knew that he’d end up causing
Benoit to get DQed. The finish was Booker causing Benoit
to lose just as he had victory just within reach with the
Crossface. JBL hit the Clothesline from Hell for the pin.
The match at SS is now a little less good.
OK,
here’s where the problems for SD! start. Batista took
on Edge, who is hurt, so they just had Chris Masters and
a bunch of RAW guys come out and that led to a battle and
a Limo Chase. I’m not kidding, a limo chase between
the RAW and SmackDown! limos. Wow.
Basically,
Batista got attacked by Big Show and Kane and they Double
Chokeslammed him. And Batista tore his lat. That’s
not a good thing. Batista will either have to drop the belt,
and of the guys they had to take the belt, there was Eddie,
or they could take it and give it to Benoit. I’m betting
they’ll have Batista vacate and go for a tourney.
There’s nothing good that can come out of that.
Or,
they could bring back Brock Lesnar from New Japan, but I
don’t see that happening.
