I became a fan of Layla last week with her intense promo... so this news makes me sad.
But Chris Jericho moving? That could be awesome!

I am not really fussed on the releases, since I am not a fan of either. Good to hear that you are going to move some big names, I cant wait to see who gets drafted.

4/4/08-- Results (Miami, FL)Friday Night Smackdown opens up with a Wrestlemania recap video from the Smackdown side! The big 10 team turmoil, where Wang Yang & Moore came out champions, Sid taking down the Great Khali and moving his way up the Smackdown charts, Ric Flair holding on to his career and United States Championship by defeating his long time friend, Ken Kennedy emerging victorious as Money in the Bank and the Undertaker extending his streak to 16-0, by winning the World Championship. The usual Smackdown opening airs and we are live in Miami for some great WWE action! The crowd gives a loud cheer as we come on the air and Michael Cole & the Coach welcome us to what should be an explosive night. Theodore Long has been hard at work this whole week, trying to put on the best show he can before the draft. Every championship will be defended tonight, in a showdown of champions! First off, The Miz & John Morrison will get their rematch against the new WWE Tag Team Champions, Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore. Then, later on tonight, Ric Flair puts his career on the line, and his United States Championship, against Chavo Guerrero. And tonight's main event, the Undertaker puts his newly won Championship on the line, against the man who fell short of ending Ric Flair's career, Batista!
Just then, Edge makes his way down to the ring. He is booed heavily, but he walks with a scowl on his face. No one with him and he isn't dressed to fight. He grabs a microphone. He tells the crowd that he just heard about the announcement about the World Championship match tonight. AND HOW MUCH BULLcrapIT IS! The Undertaker had to cheat his way into defeating Edge at Wrestlemania and he wants 'Taker again. And since "Batister" has the match tonight, Edge is officially cashing in his rematch clause at Backlash and he wants 'Taker. He will do ANYTHING for his championship back. Edge drops the microphone and the crowd seems stunned.WWE Tag Team Championships- Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore (c) vs. The Miz & John MorrisonThe former champions made their way down to the ring first and the crowd didn't greet them warmly. They didn't seem too happy either and they were on a vengeance. The new champs were next and the crowd gave them a great reaction. They ran down to the ring with gold around their waste, getting ready for their biggest challenge as a team. Moore & Miz started off and it was all Moore. He took Miz down hard and fast with his aerial based offense. The Miz really stood no chance in stopping Moore when he got on his roll and the biggest move of the sequence was a hurricanrana that almost got the 3, but Miz got out of it. Wang Yang was tagged in and he went to town with various armbars and leg sweeps. Miz looked like an amateur and out worked him. Miz did get him to slow down, after a poke to the eye and a thunderous DDT. He got the tag to Morrison and then the match picked up a little. He hit some variations of dropkicks and a beautiful step-up kick followed by a 180 legdrop. He got a close two on that. He went for a superkick, but Wang Yang ducked and got Moore in. Moore then hit two knees to the face of Morrison and knocked Miz off the apron. It wasn't long before Moore hit the mooregasm and went for the pin, but Miz broke it up. It was too close. But, Morrison stood up and went for the superkick again and Moore ducked and Morrison connected with Miz's chin. Moore then rolled up Morrison and got the 3! Big way to start the show! Winners and STILL WWE Tag Team Champions: Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore They showed highlights of the Money in the Bank ladder match, but highlighted Matt Hardy's return and how he put himself and MVP threw hell. The twist of fate off the ladder...onto another ladder. Both were hospitalized and suffered many injuries. But tonight, we will hear from both of them. The first interview segment between the two ever since Hardy was hurt. THAT IS LATER TONIGHT!
Sid was backstage walking towards the ring....HE IS READY TO FIGHT!Sid v. Mark Henry (w/Victoria & Kenny Dykstra)Well, ever since Sid returned, everyone can agree that he has been booked terrible. And after facing Khali for a few weeks and Big Daddy V a few times, and now, its Mark Henry's turn to face Sid. And you know what, this wasn't bad. Henry & co. were booed on their way out, but they didn't mind. Sid was cheered to holy hell and it was quite amusing. Sid started fast and it looked like it was going to be over early, but Dykstra got involved on the outside. He distracted Sid first, then the ref. This allowed Henry to wear Sid down and hit a World's Strongest Slam. He got the 3 over Sid! My god! Afterward, Dykstra came into the ring and battled Sid, beating on him. Dykstra got on the mic and said that Sid should never mess with the new faces of Smackdown. Winner: Mark Henry Same Wrestlemania recap aired. Special showings all this week!
A promo video started to air. It had grunge era music playing the background and the whole promo read;
"Did you see me?
I was sitting from row.
I got a ticket
straight to the hospital. "
Screen went black after this segment.
Cole & Coach went over how Wrestlemania went over amazingly and it was the biggest buy rate in a long time for the WWE. And Backlash will be just as good. Already announced tonight, Edge will use his rematch clause to take on the Undertaker or Batista! And much more to come!United States Championship/Career Threatening Match- Ric Flair (c) v. Chavo GuerreroChavo awaited Flair for a few minutes and the man finally came out. Ric Flair, 16 time World Champion, and current United States Champion. The crowd gave him the biggest pop of the night and Flair had a huge grin on his face making his way down the ring. He also seemed just physically worn from 'Mania. The bell rings and the two lock up. Neither man really gained an advantage for a few minutes and they matched move for move. Crowd chants Flair on and he finally gets some advantage. Some rights and lefts and Chavo is backed into the corner. CHOP AFTER CHOP AFTER CHOP! Chavo's chest is now beat red. Flair is struting around the ring and the crowd loves it. Chavo does come back with a tough clothesline and these two start battling it out. About midway through the match, Flair started to wear down and Guerrero went to work on his leg, which seemed damaged after Batista tried to injure it at Wrestlemania. Chavo locked in a half-crab and Flair barely got to the ropes. Chavo didn't let go into the count of 4 and the ref gave him an earful. Chavo then continued to work on the injured leg for a solid part of this match. The crowd continued to chant for Flair and I think it got him going. He found a second or third wind and started hitting Chavo with some stiff rights and lefts. He continued to punch him, until Chavo was reeling. Flair then nailed a knee and he was ready to lock in the Figure Four. HE gets it locked in! The crowd is chanting. Chavo Guerrero taps out! Ric Flair has won again and he survives! Winner and STILL United States Champion: Ric Flair A draft promo aired. It announced that the 3 hour Raw will take place next week and it will be draft time! Who will move from each brand? Find out monday on Raw!
Matt Hardy made his way down to the ring, with his wrist taped up. The crowd gave him a huge hand and he just continued to walk down with no emotion. He awaited the man who he has been feuding with for a long while now. The clock starts ticking and out comes Montel Vontavious Porter, who had tape over his nose and he was noticeably holding his ribs. It took him a few moments to get down to the ring and when he finally did, he got in Hardy's face. Porter was the first to speak, saying that Hardy is the biggest idiot in the world. He could've killed both of them and almost did. The doctors hadn't cleared them to wrestle tonight, but if they did, MVP would kick Hardy's ass all over the arena. Hardy takes the microphone from MVP and tells him that he wants to end this feud once and for all. Once they are cleared to wrestle, Matt Hardy WILL finish the job and kill MVP. Hardy drops the microphone in front of MVP and walks off.
Batista is getting ready and just finished taping up his leg. He is ready for a fight and Undertaker will definitely give him one. The main event....ITS NEXT!Main Event-World Championship- The Undertaker (c) vs. BatistaCrowd is pretty electric for this one, even know it has happened plenty of times. Batista is out first, big surprise, and he got a few hands, but nothing huge. He rolled into the ring fast and tested the ropes for the match. Then the lights went out and out came the NEW World Champion, The Undertaker! The crowd is absolutely nuts as can be. Undertaker makes his eerie entrance and Batista doesn't seem intimidated. The bell sounds after the ref held up the belt and these two size eachother up. Crowd is favoring Undertaker and they lock it up. Undertaker gets the advantage and throws Batista off the ropes and goes for a big boot, but Batista ducks and hits a clothesline. Undertaker is right back up though and they lock it up again. Batista gets the advantage now and Taker is sent into the corner. Couple of stiff shots from the challenger, then he plants his hip into Taker's midsection. Batista is fired up now, after gaining the early offense and runs and hits a thunderous clothesline in the corner. He then applies a sleep hold of sorts and Taker is fading fast. Both men went through hell at Wrestlemania and the fatigue is showing early. Batista went for an early spinebuster, but Taker blocked it and gave him the big boot. Then Undertaker worked over Batista in the corner, with jabs and big hooks to knock the big man to the ground. Undertaker runs at him and hits a BIG facewash, sending the crowd into a roar. Undertaker then picks him up and nails an Old School, which REALLY got the crowd going. Not much left in Batista and Undertaker hits that running DDT. He is signaling for the end and he picks 'Tista up and goes for the snake eyes. Batista pushes him into the turnbuckle and nails a spinebuster. Batista then hits a big fall away slam and is getting ready for the Batista Bomb! He has him between his legs when Edge comes running down, steel chair in hand and he knocks the out of Batista. Directly in the head! Batista is automatically cut open and the match is stopped! Batista wins by DQ, but Undertaker is still champion. Smackdown ends with Undertaker staring down Edge. These two will meet again...AT BACKLASH! Winner by DQ: Batista

SD was brilliant dude as always. I liked the starting match,with Morrison hitting Miz. Possibly a feud break up? FACE MORRISON =D Shocked that Henry beat Sid. Stupid Kenny hitting him while hes down :@ guessed Flair would win, he cant lose on SD. Strong words from MVP, awesome promo there. End match was great, glad it ended via DQ as it worked
keep it up bbz xx

I hope you swerve things and have Edge win his belt back, and HBK needs to retain. Good SD, Matt Hardy is intense. Batista/Taker was a good match, and Flair retaining is sweet. Dykstra is getting in way over his head with Sid I think, but should be interesting to say the least

Nice opener, glad Yang and Moore won the match. Sid vs. Henry is bleh, but wish Sid would have won tbh. Main EVent looked great but Taker maybe should have gone clean? Loved the ending to it as well. Backlash is shapping up, hopefully Taker and HBK retain and Jeff hardy beats Santino.

Woo, Snitsky and Layla are gone Good opener, nice that Wang Yang and Moore are getting a push. Oh no, Sid against Mark Henry? That would of been voted the worst match ever by everybody. Nice, Flair's still around, good to see Chavo getting a US title shot also. Holy crap the main event was fan F'N tastic, Duaney. Backlash looks stacked at the moment, love the Jeff/Maria relationship. Reply to WWF 2001? SmackDown 26/04/01

Smack Down was a good show to say the least. The opening segment was pretty good. Edge and Undertaker sounds pretty cool. The first match was good. Glad Yang and Moor picked up the win. Im also glad that Ric Flair won. However, I dont like Sid losing. However, Dykstra and Sid would be a cool squash match. lol. Anyways, Im not happy that Undertaker lost but atleast it was a disqualification. Well, the Backlash card is shaping up pretty good. Michaels and Take better retain as for Marella and Hardy, I pick Hardy. Anyways, overall Smackdown was a good show. I cant wait for Backlash.
