SMACKDOWN
wwe beginning clip starts, and then from there the pyro hits. This is smackdown after the wwe's biggest event ever, WrestleMania 20. There has been a draft, so there has been alot of show switching.
Cole: Welcome everyone to smackdown. I'm Micheal Cole and this is my partner tazz. And tazz as you know there was a huge draft that took place after Wrestlemania last night, and we will see what General Manager Paul Heyman has to say about the matter.
Tazz: Last night was a great night cole, and i am looking foward to see some of the new superstars here on Smackdown, but i was kind of hoping that Raw would end up picking you.
Cole: Thanks for your support Tazz. But now its time to see some clips of the great main even between WWE Champ Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle
The clips of the match are being shown on the screen, and the crowd is really pleased to see Eddie rolling up Angle for the pinfall.
"I LIE, I CHEAT, I STEAL"
Cole: It's Eddie, Eddie Guerrero is here, I cant wait to see what he has to say on an impressive win last night
Eddie's music is still playing as he comes out one of his shiny new low-riders. He hops out and stands on the roof, holding the title around his waist. He proceeds into the ring and grabs the mic. "EDDIE" chants are booming throught the rafters, but they soon give Eddie a chance to speak.
Eddie: Wats up homes, i am glad to be here tonight. The only thing i am dissapointed about is that little American Whiner Kurt Angle is not on smackdown anymore, so i can kick his ass again!
"EDDIE" chants begin to ring throughout the crowd again, but they are soon interrupted by HHH's theme music
Tazz: uh-oh Cole, things are defnitely about to pick up now, HHH doesnt look to be in a happy mood tonight
Cole: yea, he seems pretty mad about losing that triple threat match last night at wrestlemania.
HHH madly walks out to the ring, the "YOU TAPPED OUT" chants begin to get louder and louder, and HHH cant even get a word in
HHH: Shut up!! Shut up!! Dont you realize that i am the game! I am still the greatest wrestler in this business, on Raw or Smackdown. I'm going to throw aside the fact that i lost to that one hit wonder Chris Benoit last night for a little while, knowing that i can get my hands on the title here on smackdown, the inferior brand, with an inferior champion
HHH and Eddie get in each others faces, the crowd wants to see a fight.
Heyman's music hits, and he appears at the top of the titantron
Cole: Hey, what is he doing here! He has no business in this.
Tazz: What are you talking about cole, he is the general manager, he has every right to step in and break this up. Now shut up he is about to speak
Heyman gets into the ring and grabs a mic.
Heyman:Eddie, Triple H, lets be reasonable, i know that you two are both exausted, and are in no mood to fight each other. HHH then grabs the mic forcefully out of heymans hand
HHH: shut up Paul, stop making excuses for me not to kick his ass! i want a title shot! and i want one now! i can beat him anytime, anywhere!
Heyman: Fine Triple H, I was going to be nice and give you both the night off. But it seems that you both want to fight really badly. So Triple H, i will give u a 1 on 1 match tonight against any person you want.
The crowd goes wild
Cole: What? That isnt fair. We know that he is gonna pick Eddie and have a title shot tonight
Tazz: How do you know for sure cole, Heyman said that it can be against anyone, we still have to see who Triple H picks.
HHH: well Paul, thanks alot for the offer. So tonight, 1 on 1, i choose to fight.....
HBK'S MUSIC HITS, AND THE CROWD ERUPTS AGAIN! HBK walks down to the ring and takes the mic from Heyman
HBK: HHH, i know that you want a title shot really badly. But i am also looking for a fight, and i suggest that if you dont pick me for that match, i can guarantee that you will leave here in an ambulance before you step out of this ring. Triple H thinks about it, and says the he will fight HBK here tonight. The crowd is very happy, and Micheals leaves the ring. Triple H has says that if Heyman doesnt give him a title shot soon, Smackdown will pay, and he says he has more important things to do and walks out of the ring and into the back. It is now Eddie and Heyman in the ring and Eddie is about to leave.
Heyman: Hey Eddie hold on, your not getting off that easy. Tonight you are still going to defend your title. And this person is hungry. Hungry to get back in the ring and make an impact, and his name is...EDGE!
Cole: Wow! what a great match that is gonna be! we havent seen Egde for a long long time, i cant wait to see if he can get right back in the ring and wrestle for the title.
Tazz: But you have to remember cole, he could still be favoring that neck. We have to see if Edge has any ring rust on him, and if Eddie can take advantage of that mabye still tender neck.
Cole: All in all Tazz, this is a great way to kick off a brand new smackdown! We will be right back
COMMERICAL
When we come back Christian is in the ring. and he doesnt seem to be in a happy mood. Everyone is chanting "CLB", and Christian is about to throw one of his fits.
Christian: Ok Ok, as you all know, me and trish were going along great on raw. But now because of this stupid draft, i am now on smackdown, away from trish. But i heard how she is looking for another man, so i can dump her just as quick. And i know just the girl. Lita, if you could, please come out. Lita's music hits and the crowd cheers
Tazz: Hey its lita. We havent seen lita on smackdown before. This is great. New wrestlers, and a few new hot divas added to the show, how could we go wrong.
Cole: Yea tazz its great, but what does Christian want with Lita?
Christain goes on to say how he always liked lita more than trish, and how he thought that she was always a hotter diva and a better person to be around. He is still smooth talking her, but lita gets fed up with it and slaps Christian in the face. The crowd cheers, but then Christian gets mad and hits her back, and has her in the setup for the unpretteir....
Cole: Hey what is this! He cant do this to innocent Lita. Someone help her!
All of the sudden Matt Hardy's music hits and he runs into the ring, and begins to attack Christian. Lita gets out of the ring, and out of nowhere, a referee hops into the ring and the bell sounds.
Tazz: Hey great! they are going to make this a match! What a great match to kick off smackdown.
Matt Hardy vs. Christian
The match continues with back and forth brawling, and soon christian gets the upper hand with an unprettier.
Cole: There it is. The Unprettier! Thats the match!
The ref counts..1....2....no! kick out
Tazz: WOW! I cant belive hardy kicked out of that
then Christian is about to go for another one of his unprettiers, but hardy pushes out of it and sends christian into the ropes. Hardy runs the opposite way and they both have the same idea as they collide in the middle of the ring after doing a clothesline to each other.
Cole: The refs count is at 7....now....8..
Tazz..One of them has to get up for this match to continue
But after 9 both men start to stir. They get on their feet. Christain swings at Matt Hardy, but he ducks and hits the twist of fate. He goes to the top rope for a Hardy Leg Drop, but Christian moves out of the way. He gets up and knocks Hardy to the turnbuckle, where he hits a swinging DDT...
1......2.......NO! another kickout
Then Christian wraps up Hardy in a pin near the ropes, and proceeds to put is feet on the rope
Cole: No way! he is going to cheat his way to victory
1....2....he gets out of that
Tazz: Wow cole! Matt Hardy is good. He wont be put away by Christian.
Christian begins to throw a tantrum, and he goes outside to get a chair, the ref notices, and grabs it out of his hands. The referee takes it, and turns his back and gives the chair to the ring announcer. Christian's back is turned away from the ramp way, because he is argiung with the ref about the chair. He doesnt see lita run her way into the ring and low blow Christian. He goes down, and Matt Hardy stirs and then puts the icing on the cake with a twist of fate. The ref gets back in and counts a quick 1....2.....3....
Cole: Matt Hardy pulls this one out! all thanks to the help of lita. What do you think about that one Tazz?
Tazz: I think the CLB got what was coming to him cole. And here comes the fit.
We see Christian throwing a fit after in the ring after the match.
The next match is about to start.
Then backstage we see Rikishi and scotty greet back grand master sexay. He is happy to be back and is ready for a six man tag coming up next on Smackdown.
The next match is between Rikishi, Scotty 2 Hotty, and Grand Master Sexay, vs Tajiri, Akio, and Sakoda.
The crowd is happy to see rikishi scotty and grand master back together
Tazz: all i have to say is i feel sorry for whoever gets the big but of Rikishi in their faces. ugh. im having nightmares thinking about that.
Tajiri, akio, and sakoda enter the ring, and the match begins
It is Rikishi and tajiri. Tajiri tries to lock up with the big man, but the big kish is too powerful. he throws tajiri into the ropes and is beating on him. then soon after Tajiri begins to land his furious kicks to the big Rikishi, and he begins to wear down. Rikishi tags in Grand Master, and there is a huge ovation, They both attack with quick headlocks and suplexes, and there are nearfalls galore. Tajiri tags in Akio, who aslo goes speed for speed against Grand master. Akio soon gets him into their corner, and they begin to triple team him for a while. There are a few wear down locks applied to slow down the match, but the crowd gets behing grand master to make a tag.
Cole: Grand Master Sexy needs a tag tazz. and the crowd wants it to happen
Tazz: I dont think he can get it cole
But soon after he does, and he tags in rikishi again. Rikishi goes for a clothesline, but akio ducks and goes into the ropes and gets a swinging ddt to rikishi. He is out...and akio goes to the top, But scotty hits him and he falls and flips into perfect stink face setup
Tazz: o no cole! here it is! what i was dreading. i have to close my eyes.
Rikishi stirs and stares down akio. he is about to get the stink face but sakoda gets in the ring. He gets a kick to the face. Tajiri drags im to the turnbuckle, and tajiri tries to break it up, but grand master sexay clotheslines tajiri over the ropes and they both go out. Rikshi gets the stink face, and then grabs out akio and puts him near the center of the ring. he tags in scotty, and scotty starts to build up steam and gets the crowd going.
Cole: Hey! it looks like we are about to see the worm Tazz!
Tazz: Its better than the stink face
Scotty hits the worm, and then he looks over to his turnbuckle. Grand master is back on the apron, tajiri is out on the outside. He tags in grand master and he goes to the top for the dancing leg drop. 1.......2........3....and too cool wins!
They throw out sakoda from the turnbuckle..and give the crowd their moneys worth with a dance in the middle of the ring
Backstage we see HHH is greeting Batista and Flair, who are both on smackdown too. When they all appear there are loud boos and "evolution sucks" chants
cole: even though they are missing one memeber, evolution can be dangerous here on smackdown tazz.
tazz: yea. but all you have to do is stay out of their way, and they wont bother you. i think hbk hasnt hearned that lesson yet cole.
HHH: its good to see you both, and i just wanted to let you two know that we all need to be on the top of our game here on smackdown. We dominated over on raw, and lets dominate over here on smackdown. Then Triple H goes on to say that he has booked a match with HBK, and Batista and Flair promise they will be there.
Cole: this looks as if this is going to be a 3 on 1 match here tazz
Tazz: good, mabye shawn micheals will finally get the lesson he deserves here tonight
COMMERICAL
when we come back, John Cena is in the ring. He is pumping up the crowd, and he is still excited after his big Wrestlemania 20 win. He says that he will be a fighting champion, and would fight tonight if he has to.
We then see a big shiny white limo appear in the rampway, and who looks to be Bradshaw comes out.
Tazz: Hey cole, who is that? is that Bradshaw?
Cole: i think so. we are always used to see him playing cards and drinking beer in the back, but he looks different in that suit and tie.
Bradshaw gets out of the limo and goes to the ring.
Bradshaw: your that punk John Cena arent you? Well, my name is John Bradshaw Layfield, and i think that you need a lesson on how to be a well proper american.
The crowd responds in boos
Bradshaw: all these jerseys, and these backward hats, and that chain, you dont know the meaning of being an American. I, on the other hand, have my own show, i have stocks, i have money, i am the definition of an American.
Tazz: What the hell is bradshaw talking about. this is a new side of him we havent seen before
Cole: yes defnitely. i dont know why bradshaw is acting like this.
All of a sudden we hear Heymans music hit again, and he walks out to the ring, and more and more boos are being yelled now. He grabs a microphone
Heyman: Bradshaw, your right, this punk doesnt know the meaning of an american. I have never liked you John Cena, and now, i have someone on my side. And we will make sure your stay on smackdown is a living hell. Him and Bradshaw shake hands in the middle of the ring.
Heyman: Bradshaw, to reward you, i will give you a United States title shot next week, and to make sure that John Cena is not 100 percent, he will have a match tonight against...KANE!
the crowd boos and heyman and bradshaw laugh. Cena stands there unphased

Tazz: Yea, i dont know where this came from out of bradshaw, but whatever it is, its got heyman fooled bad
Bradshaw and heyman walk out of the ring, and Cena prepares for kane to enter
Kane comes down and the match begins
John Cena vs. Kane
Kane is on a rampage, throwing Cena around like a rag doll. Cena attempts to get some hits in, but nothing seems to phase Kane. He begins to battle back, and whips him into the ropes. he hits a running clothesline, and then begins to pound away at kane. Cena is on top of Kane punching him, but then Kane wakes up and grabs his throat. He gets up, and then chokeslams Cena. Then the ref counts, 1....2....No kickout by cena. Kane goes to do it again, but Cena kicks him in the gut and runs into the ropes behing kane and jumps over him...hitting the throwback
Tazz: there it is cole the throwback, one of cena's best moves, this can be it
1....2...No now kane gets the kickout. they are slugging some more...Cena gets him on his shoulders, and is going for the f-u. But Kane slips behind, and then he goes for another chokeslam, but Cena pulls out a brass knuck out of his pocket when the ref wasnt looking, nailes him with it, then he then takes kane by the arm, hoists him on his shoulders, and then hits the f-u successfully.
1...2...3...
Tazz: wow its over! Cena beat out Kane using the brass knuckles. He cheated, but it worked!
Cole: this is not good for kane. Mabye he still has the undertaker on his mind, but it does seem as if kane is on a losing streak. I hope he can rebound, or smackdown is i serious trouble. But when we come back its time for a title match
