I think this is where the Undertaker usually scares whomever he's hunting for little bit. Like with Randy Orton when he was stalking him for awhile, appearing in mirrors, doing the same thing with phone calls, etc. Vickie will be so scared next week she'll offer the Big Show (or whomever) a title shot if they take out the Undertaker.

Why is Big Show vs Snitsky on? At least put a half decent match from the past on!

- Killings/Kenny is a promising debut I felt. Kenny talked trash on the mic, but got squashed pretty much. Killings hit his flying corkscrew forearm smash, a nice looking roll through counter and a well executed corkscrew axe kick for the pinfall. He could have worked a bit stiffer and with more conviction I felt, but promising debut. (3/4*).
- Maryse is apparently the new number one contender. Michelle/Maria come out to face Maryse/Natalya. Short match with Maryse getting the pinfall after a spike DDT on Maria. Post-match Maryse and Michelle "brawl", with Maryse getting the upper hand courtesy of Natalya. Not bad. (1/2*).
- Hardy/MVP is a good T.V match. Hardy opens with some uncharacteristic mat wrestling and works over MVP's arm. It was good, but it was not followed up by either MVP's selling or Jeff going after it for the rest of the match which I feel is a psychological flaw. Its a bit lacking in the workrate early, but acceptable enough. MVP begins to work over the back of Hardy with some nice moves including the camel clutch. It goes to the outside for a bit but never really a threat of countout. Hardy attempts the whisper in the wind but suffers a nasty fall onto his head/neck after MVP chopped his legs. Dangerous move, was unable to ascertain who's fault it was. Eventually Hardy gets the pinfall after he hits a 99% air whisper in the wind and a Swanton. Good stuff, but not the greatest workrate and psychology. Still very entertaining and will be unfortunate if Hardy is indeed injured. (***)
- Shelton lays out Hardy with the Pay Dirt post match. MVP looks happy about this before getting owned himself. Shelton is looking strong.
- JnF vs Edgeheads is abuut 30 seconds when Big Show comes out and squashes everyone except Festus, immobilised by the DQ bell. Show cuts a promo about how he was "overlooked" and his interference was a "slight oversight".
- Brie Bella's debut was acceptable I thought. The match wasn't bad, and she showed some nice ability with her snapmares. She wins with a roll-up after disappearing under the ring for a few seconds. Victoria does the job again. (1/2*)
- Kenrdick cut a pretty fine promo. Talked about the "Art of War" and how he could write his very own chapter. Made a nice line about how if you walk the line of insanity you can achieve anything and how it wasn't about who gets the first or most pinfalls at Unforgiven, its who gets the last. Zeke looked funny reading in the background.
- Main event was good as well. Shelton/HHH start off grappling, but the story of the match is pretty evident: Shelton dominates the grappling and HHH the striking. Shelton starts on the arm with some armdrags and armbars, but HHH works out of them. Shelton then transfers to the neck/head area to much more success. Swinging neckbreaker from the ropes and Shelton begins to work over the neck/head. HHH comes back but Shelton goes for the suplex to HHH from inside the ring to the floor. HHH counters into his own suplex, but Shelton counters again into a neckbreaker. Very smooth counter. Shelton counters the pedigree with a backbreaker and HHH counters the dragon whip and hits a spinebuster. HHH is beginning to get on the offence when Khali comes out to the ring. Shelton attempts the pay dirt from behind, but HHH counters into the pedigree for the pinfall. HHH and Khali have a staredown, when out of nowhere Shelton gets HHH in the back of the head with a stiff shot from his title belt. Shelton lays out 3 of his 4 opponents in the same night. Khali comes in and appiles the vice to HHH as Shelton makes his exit. A fine main-event, a shame it finished how it did. (**1/2+)
- I believe the lights went out for Vickie to close the show (aka Undertaker coming), I only heard it as I walked away though.
Overall good show. 2 good matches make it worth watching and Killings debut wasn't bad at all.

Nice review, man. I should look forward to this Smackdown later on.

Does anyone else think that Killings overdid his entrance? Even the womens' entrances don't have the same ammount of dancing as much as his did. It was embarassing.
