Here is the first WWE Smackdown.
----------------------------------------------------
Live from Charlotte, North Carolina
Pyro goes off and the Smackdown Theme Song plays throughout the arena
Cole: Welcome to WWE Smackdown, what a night we have in store for you, tonight the new GM will be revealed, but whoever he or she is, we have a blockbuster main event for tonight, Eddie Guerrero takes on Rene Dupree
Tazz: It's gonna be off the hook Cole, I'm looking foward to finding out exactly who that new GM is
Cole: Also tonight, the rematch from a few weeks ago for the WWE Tag Team Championships, Paul London and Billy Kidman against the Dudley Boyz
Tazz: Well, I think we're gonna have new Tag Team Champions tonight, the original victory a few weeks ago was a fluke Cole
"No Chance" hits throughout the arena to a mixed reaction and out comes Mr McMahon walking confidently to the ring
Chimnel: Ladies and Gentlemen please welcome the Chairman of World Wrestling Entertainment, Mr McMahon
McMahon gets in the ring and gets the microphone
Vince: You know, if there is one fault in any person, it is that they make mistakes.......and unfortunatley for me, I've made a few very bad mistakes in my time....some of which I regret
Before Vince can speak anymore, Kurt Angle's music immediatly hits to huge heat throughout the arena, Angle walks out to the ring staring at Vince. Angle gets the mic
Angle: Vince, I wholeheartedly agree, people make mistakes, people like Eddie Guerrero, people like Tony Chimnel but I'm not going to continue about them, for the very first time in my life Mr McMahon, I made a mistake I regret, and that is ever lying about not being able to wrestle ever again. But I know what your going to say Mr McMahon..........and I would gratefully accept your apology and I will take my job back as General Manager, thanks
Vince: Firstly, never interrupt me, Secondly you address me as Mr McMahon, and I am not offering you your job back, nor am I apologising. The Mistakes I were talking about, were not about you.........they were about my daughter Stephanie, Last year I comitted some dispicable actions but thankfully we have sorted things out, and that brings me to the announcement of the new General Manager
Fans Cheer
Vince: Stephanie McMahon!
"All Grown Up." hits throughout the arena and out comes Stephanie to a huge pop throughout the arena, she walks down to the ring smiling and grabs the microphone, she shakes her dad's hand and Mr McMahon leaves. Kurt goes to leave but she stops him.
Stephanie: You know what Kurt, the job you did as General Manager, was so bad that putting you in a match against Eddie Guerrero at Summerslam isn't enough
Kurt looks puzzled
Stephanie: I think one other superstar deserves to get some of you and he will do next week on Smackdown
Fans Cheer Stephanie
Stephanie: So, as my first act as General Manager, next week on Smackdown it will be Kurt Angle against John Cena inside a 15 foot high Steel Cage!
Huge Pop for the announcement
Kurt grabs the mic that Vince left in the ring
Stephanie: Well have you got anything else to say Kurt
Kurt: That's not.....(cut off by steph)
Stephanie: Good then, now get the hell out of this ring
Kurt exits the ring but looks irate at the announcement of the Cage Match next week
Stephanie: Now I know you people want to see the action start so I'll not keep you much longer, just to announce one more match
Fans Cheer
Stephanie: The match will decide the new United States Champion
Fans Cheer and start chanting "Cena, Cena, Cena, Cena"
Stephanie: The competitors are as follows, Luther Reigns against Rob Van Dam against Booker-T against.........John Cena!
Fans Cheer
Stephanie: Now the last thing is......Enjoy the Show
"All Grown Up" hits throughout the arena and Stephanie leaves.
Cole: What a string of announcements there Tazz, unbelieveable, first Stephanie is the new GM, she's booked a huge 15 foot high steel cage match for next week, the second of those this month and She's made a fatal 4 way match for the United States Championship
Tazz: No doubt Cole, several Rocket Buster announcements
Cole: We're going backstage now to Josh Matthews who has John Cena
Interview
Josh: John Cena, the new general manager Stephanie McMahon has announced that next week on Smackdown you will face Kurt Angle inside a Steel Cage, what are your thoughts
Cena: Yo, I got Lumpy in a steel cage, I don't know if even that can contain all my rage, and as for chumpy, his bride to be, hell everybody knows he can't see me.............Cena turns around and starts staring at someone
Kenzo Suzuki and Hiroko walk up
Kenzo: (speaks some japanese)
Hiroko: Kenzo say that, he should be in the United States Title Match, because he's the only one on Smackdown who loves America
Kenzo: (speaks some japanese again)
Hiroko: Kenzo say that...after he defeats Charlie Haas tonight...he will take pleasure in watching Booker-T pin you in the match tonight
Cena: Chill, Chill, Chilll,..............Booker-T beating the doctor of thuganomics, are you crazy, He maybe a 5 time WCW Champion but he's also a 5 time Sucka, you think he'll beat John Cena, then you're a stupid mother f***a(holds mic up)
Interview Ended
Cole: Well Kenzo Suzuki interrupting John Cena in the interview before the Bronze Warrior takes on Charlie Haas in singles action next
Tazz: You know Kenzo must be disappointed not to be in the match
Kenzo Suzuki's music hits throughout the arena to heat from the crowd
Cole: Of Course he is and speaking of the bronze warrior it's time for him to take on Charlie Haas
Kenzo get's into the ring, staring at the crowd, Hiroko takes Kenzo's gold and orange robe.
Charlie Haas music hits throughout the arena to a decent pop with Miss Jackie at his side and he comes down to the ring to start off his match
Kenzo Suzuki w/Hiroko V Charlie Haas w/Miss Jackie
Pretty even matchup, Kenzo Suzuki works on the arm of Charlie Haas midway through. Charlie Haas locks in the Haas of Pain but Hiroko distracts the referee whilst Kenzo is tapping out, Jackie pulls Hiroko down causing her to go face first into the apron, Haas breaks the hold to get the ref and Kenzo rolls him up and grabs the tights for the 1-2-3
Winner: Kenzo Suzuki
Cole: Kenzo Suzuki steals the win
Tazz: Well if you can get away with cheating, then why not do it Cole, I mean its common sense
Cole: Charlie Haas had the match won, and Hiroko got up on the apron and distracted the referee
Tazz: True, better luck next time for Haas then I guess
Commercial
We cut backstage to see Spike Dudley in the lockerroom, preparing for his match, the door bursts open and Bubba Ray and D'Von walk up to him
Bubba: You know that deal we had last week Spike about your match tonight
Spike: Yeah
Bubba: We'll we think we should help you tonight
Spike: You promised if I didn't interfere in D'Von's match with Rey Mysterio, then you wouldn't Interfere in my match tonight and I didn't interfere
D'Von: Spike, have you ever heard of that thing were if somebody crosses their fingers whilst saying something, and it means it Isn't exactly true, well both me and Bubba had our fingers crossed Spike
Spike: Look just stay out of my match, I don't need your help
Spike storms off, leaving Bubba and D'Von with an angry look on their face.
We Cut Back to the arena and Rey Mysterio's music hits to a big pop from the crowd
Cole: Well now its time for the Cruiserweight Title match and you gotta wonder Tazz, if we will see The Dudley Boyz out here
Tazz: It's possible, I know Bubba and D'Von personally and they want the best for Spike and he's the underdog in this match
Cole: All they want is the glory
WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Rey Mysterio (c) V Spike Dudley
A lot of high flying action as always. Rey Mysterio has a slight upperhand throughout the match. Spike comes back and eventually hits the Dudley Dog, and covers but D'Von is distracting the referee and allows Bubba to sneak in the ring from the other side and deliver the Bubba Bomb to Spike. The Dudley Boyz head up the ramp and Rey Mysterio who dosen't know what happened covers Spike and gets the 1-2-3
Winner: and still WWE Cruiserweight Champion Rey Mysterio
After the match, Rey Mysterio helps Spike up and Spike tells him about what happened, both Rey and Spike look pissed off as they go backstage.
Cole: What was that you were saying Tazz about Bubba and D'Von wanting the best for their brothers
Tazz: I don't know why they did this Cole, it's a shock to me as well as all these people
Cole: They should leave Spike along, week after week he's told them to stop coming out during his matches and they still do it
Tazz: Well I'm not sure of their motives but they'll probably have a good reason, you know, as I said I talk to them regularly and they always have reasons
Cole: Ladies and Gentlemen, we are going to go backstage now, Josh Matthews has caught up with The Dudley Boyz
Interview
Josh: Bubba Ray and D'Von, moments ago you just cost your little brother Spike, his opportunity for the Cruiserweight Championship, why did you do that?
Bubba: First of all Josh, we offered help to Spike repeatedly and we have helped him before, but he has become unappreciative for our help
D'Von: And when someone does such a thing to Me and Bubba, we have to punish them and we have done that with Spike
Josh: Why did you want to help Spike in the first place, when he clearly didn't want help?
Bubba: What kind of stupid question is that, why do we want to help Spike, because he's a Dudley, and you think he didn't want help, of course he wanted our help, it's just he didn't want to ask us
D'Von: Yeah and after we give him help, he throws it back in our face, we have nothing else to say so you just run along now and watch The Dudley Boyz become Tag Team Champions later on tonight
End of Interview
We Cut Back to the arena and JBL's music hits and he comes out in a long white Limo
Chimmel: Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the WWE Champion, John Bradshaw Layfield!
Cole: Well I don't know why JBL is out here, I do know however that his Summerslam opponent The Undertaker is not here tonight
Tazz: JBL he can do whatever he wants, he's the man!
JBL walks down the ramp, shaking the hands of people from the crowd, he gets in the ring and then puts on his handcream before taking the mic from Tony Chimmel
JBL: Good Evening, my fellow Americans, and of course others from poorer countries such as, well Mexico, Your WWE Champion, John Bradshaw Layfield is here, what a great moment, infact this has to be one of the greatest moments ever in the history of South Carolina
Cole: We're in North Carolina
Tazz: Let the man talk Cole
JBL: Ladies and Gentlemen, and I use that term somewhat loosely, What you are about to see will be the greatest experience you will ever have in your somewhat rundown lives, I John Bradshaw Layfield, WWE Champion will wrestle here tonight
Crowd Boo's
JBL: And my opponent will be, none other than, The Undertaker
Mixed reactions from the crowd
Cole: How can he do that, The Undertaker isn't here tonight Tazz
Tazz: You must be wrong Cole
JBL: I am going to beat the living hell out of The Undertaker, and not only am I going to do it for all of you, I am going to gain revenge on a couple of things, like when I tripped into the chokeslam the last week, and for Shannon Moore.....Who was going to face me for the WWE Championship at Summerslam
Crowd Boo's
JBL: Now I know all of the women were looking foward to that match, and of course Michael Cole, but that's ok....I will destroy The Undertaker, he is no match for a fighting Champion like John Bradshaw Layfield
Crowd starts a JBL sucks chant
JBL: Yes people that's it, chant my name.........JBL.................JBL...............JBL.........JBL.....JBL....JBL..JBL..JBL..JBL.
Cole: I believe the crowd are chanting JBL sucks
JBL: Now sorry to cut off, I know I'm a very popular man, but I'm also in demand so could The Undertaker now please come out here to face me
JBL takes off his black coat and cowboy hat and throws them down. The Lights Dim and The Gong goes off and purple smoke starts to fill the rampway. A small man walks out, dressed as The Undertaker, he walks to the ring like the Undertaker and stands on the ringstairs and raises his hands and the lights go on and he gets in the ring. The Midget walks up to JBL and starts trash talking before takes off his coat. JBL keeps the mic in his hand and pretends he's gonna attack the midget Undertaker who falls over and lies flat out in the centre of the ring, JBL laughs and raises his hands up, the crowd continue to chant JBL sucks.
JBL: Now look how scared The Undertaker is of John Bradshaw Layfield, referee ring the bell so I can get the 1-2-3 and I'm going to beat him in less than a minute so get that timer set Chimmel.
The Ref rings the bell
WWE Championship
John Bradshaw Layfield (c) V Mini Undertaker
JBL walks over laughing at the crowd and kneels down to cover but the mini Undertaker sits up, JBL looks on with a strange look. JBL goes to give the midget a right hand but the midget ducks and starts kicking the leg of JBL, but JBL shrugs it off with Big Boot. JBL picks up the Mini Undertaker and lifts him up in the air and just drops him and then JBL taunts the crowd again. JBL picks up the midget and delivers a powerbomb and covers for the 1-2-3
Winner: and still WWE Champion, John Bradshaw Layfield
JBL gets the mic again
JBL: You see, that's a repeat of what will happen at Summerslam Ladies and Gentlemen, and to back my statement up, announce the time it took me to beat him Chimmel
Chimmel: The time it took WWE Champion John Bradshaw Layfield to win that bout was 1 minute and 13 sec.....(cut off)
JBL: Shut up and announce the proper time Chimmel
JBL threatens to hit Chimmel until he announces it
Chimmel: 57 seconds
JBL raises his hands up to the crowd and his music hits, and he leaves.

Cole: Well a very arrogant John Bradshaw Layfield there, saying he was going to defend against The Undertaker and he brings out a midget
Tazz: He did defend against The Undertaker, either he's shrunk or he's forgotten to wear his high heels

Tazz: Indeed Cole and it's going to be off the hook
WWE Tag Team Championships

The Dudley Boyz control the match, working on Paul London until he gets the tag to Billy Kidman who has some momentum for a while but Bubba and D'Von bring it back to their own pace again, London goes for a missile dropkick on D'Von who moves and London get's the referee. D'Von throws London to the outside and then The Dudley Boyz hit a 3D on Kidman and cover but there is no referee.

Kurt slaps Luther and Luther smiles
Kurt: Now go get that belt Luther
Luther walks away and Kurt has a smile on his face
Cole: Well coming up now is our United States Championship match, Fatal 4 Way Match, the first person to get a pinfall or submission will win the match
