Looks okay, I've just skimmed over it. The one thing i will say is that you should work on the prsentation. When you look at the show, it appears to be one big block of black and white text. Some colour would be benifical to the reader! I'll try and review the show if I get the time.
I agree with him, I skimed through it also. There was no colour whatsover, and Nothing to seperate the matches from the rest of the text. Try putting the matches in quote boxes, use Bold and Biger fonts for titles. Things like these make a lot of difference. I might keep my eye on this one.

Tazz: You’re right JR so goodnight all are Smackdown fans and tune in next week to watch everything unfold.
Flanny, just thought i would leave some comments for Smackdown-
-Liked the opening segment with Vince, that is a hell of a main event, however maybe it was a bit short. Did he really need to come to the ring to say just a few lines? Maybe he could have just appeared on the titon tron. But a great way to open Smackdown and grab the viewers attention - good job
-The tag team match was good and puts Jesse and Festus in the hunt for the titles. I will be interested to see how you approach the tag team title scene in the coming weeks.
-Nice interview from Triple H announcing his intentions and as rightfully he is pissed off because he got stripped of the title. Maybe an in ring interview could have been used for this as i think Triple H would have a lot more to say on this issue. But still he got his point over.
-Interesting match from Bam Neely. Nice to see him free from being Chavo's sidekick. Is he in line for a push? Its an interesting decision if he is and i look forward to seeing how you build him up, but this was a good start!
-The Swagger/Yang match was good. I havent actually seen any of Jack Swagger on TV so i dont know what he is like but it looks from your BTB as if he has potential so i look forward to seeing how you use him in the future.
-Big show interview was good, however maybe better use of grammar and punctuation is needed to make the interview flow more. It was hard to read at times without commas and full stops but his explanation of why he attacked The Undertaker is reasonable and i would like you to really build him like a monster now and make him a serious threat to Taker.
-The Divas match was good, be interesting to see where you go with the Divas and the championship.
-The main event was excellent and i liked the way you went into detail about all the eliminations. Big Show was an excellent choice as champion because he has a ready made feud with The Undertaker waiting. I just hope you dont copy the WWE with how the feud is going right now and come up with some fresh material.
Overall this was a decent show, a big improvement on your recent RAW episode and its good you have taken other BTBers thoughts into consideration as it will improve you. I will def keep reading.

*Crowd Cheers*
Jerry Lawler: What a match Michael HBK advances to No Mercy
Michael Cole: What a night we had tonight King Next week should be even better with CM Punk Vs Chris Jericho and goodnight and make sure to tune in next week for Monday night Raw
- Just a small thing, but you should put the date of the show at the very top of the show, it just lets the reader know what date the show is set in.
- I liked how you went straight to the announcers. The King and Cole hyping the new GM announcement was nice and it was cool how you had Vince McMahon interrupt them, continuing the suspense.
- Okay, Eric Bischoff. Not a bad choice at all IMO. As for the promo, it wasn’t too great. No interaction between Vince and Eric. No reaction from the announcers and Jericho interrupting didn’t work. I mean Jericho lost last week, end of story. Also the Boogeyman and Snitsky are heels right, so that handicap match is a booking disaster. The promo seemed rushed as it was very short. Characterization however was pretty okay which is an important element of any promo.
- I think that Jericho could of won the match by pinfall. He looked kind of weak here and if he is getting back into the title picture, he needs to look strong.
- Rhodes and Dibaise were out of character in their backstage segment with Eric Bischoff. Didn’t think the segment was needed if I’m honest about it and the booking style you’re adopting in which people must win matches in order to get title matches or what I want is okay, but you seem to be overusing it!
- A very good TV match between Orton and Rey Mysterio. I’m surprised at the fact you scheduled this so early on in the show. Orton winning was no surprise to me. It was a logical booking decision. You managed to make Mysterio look strong, even though he lost.
- The Eric Bischoff, Cryme Tyme segment was fun, I liked it a lot. Not sure whether or not Eric is a heel or a face. You seem to be using him an awful lot tonight!
- Glamarella is the best thing on WWE TV in my opinion, so splitting them up makes no sense IMO. This is the biggest diva match you can book on TV or on a PPV these days, so you should of gave it more time. The finished keeps Beth looking strong as the finish was not a clean one. Bischoff coming out was stupid and pointless IMO.
- Ugh! The Noble, JBL segment made no sense. JBL doesn’t care about Noble and he wouldn’t have anything to do with him. Jamie trying to impress Noble is exactly what the WWE are doing with him and Layla. Noble wouldn’t look petrified, as he thinks he’s a tough guy and about 10 foot tall, that’s what makes him so funny.
- No surprise, Cryme Tyme win. The match was pointless as Cryme Tyme should of just got the match up with Priceless to begin with.
- You didn’t mention the main event once all night and this is the first time we are seeing HBK and Kane. A clean win here was a nice surprise. I’m a Kane fan, but you’re right to go with HBK here and let him advance to No Mercy. Good match.
OVERALL: The show was short and you need to extend the length of your promos and backstage segments. The match length is fine as you just write the finish. You overused Eric Bischoff tonight and I don’t like how you booked Jericho and Cryme Tyme. The two main matches, namely Orton/Rey and HBK/Kane were good. You need to up the entertainment level and take out the predictability that overshadowed the show. Hope these comments help you improve as a booker. I look forward to your next show.
