SmackDown This! (Dec. 3, 2008) from WWE.com

Posted in:

Why am I still full from Thanksgiving? Probably because I feel like I have been eating TURKEY FOR A WEEK!!

Man, I’m glad I got that off my chest. Now on with the show …

If you miss Friday Night SmackDown this week, you will be punished by having to “Out-Think the Fink” in your own living room, followed by a sleepover with the future WWE HOF’er and then a trip to the sauna together.

Is this week’s Friday Night SmackDown big? Oh, hell yeah!

Undertaker vs. Big Show inside the dreaded, steel cage is the main event and what a match you’re going to see. I thought this was one of the best matches between these two, rather large gentlemen that I have ever seen them have and it was more intense, in my humble opinion, than their Casket Match at Survivor Series.

Remember, if you are quizzed, Undertaker’s submission maneuver is now called, officially, “Hell’s Gate.”

Many of WWE’s finest are entertaining our troops this week in Iraq or thereabouts and should be commended for their dedication and their efforts. The annual “Tribute to the Troops” broadcast will air on NBC Saturday night Dec. 20 at 9/8 CT.

The late, great Bob Hope (you youngsters can ask your parents who Bob Hope is) would be proud.

Dr. Joe E. Styles, who is with the WWE traveling party and will no doubt keep us all updated on his experiences abroad on the Tribute to the Troops trip on WWE.com, wanted to travel in uniform but his Boy Scout “uni” from Stamford elementary missed fitting by “this much.”

WWE Champion Edge wrestles for the first time on Friday Night SmackDown in a good while this week. Is it just me or are Edge’s eyes channeling the late actor/comedian Marty Feldman these days? “Wild-Eyed and Crazy” might be a valid suggestion for a country tune about SmackDown G.M. Vickie Guerrero’s other half.

What’s the over/under on how long the Edge/Vickie relationship lasts … this time? Not that I am wishing them any back luck … I’m just saying.

I’m actually happy Edge is back on Friday night’s as he is as unpredictable and talented as anyone in WWE.

Speaking of “I’m just saying” Hurricane Helms returns to the proverbial squared circle this Friday night sporting a brand new, huge tattoo on his back and from what I could tell it did not say “Gregory.” Perhaps you can figure it out.

Hello Jim Ross!

Thanks for the great Show in Vegas a few weeks back! Had a blast taking my girlfriend to her first ever wrestling event! She's now a die hard Rey Mysterio and HHH fan! Good choices i think :) So my question for you is this:  Has WWE ever given Glenn Gilberti aka DIsco Inferno a Tryout match? I actually thought he was very underated when he was in WCW.  Im just curious what you think of him and if you agree with me?  I see a lot of Alex Wright in DJ Gabriel on ECW which made me think of Disco, because I used to like this gimmick for it's entertainment value, if done right of course. Wish i could travel to your resturants, I bet its great.  Take care, and Happy Holidays!

 

JR

 

 I am so glad that the Slammy's are coming back, they were always entertaining.

 

One suggestion and I am curious what you think. In my opinion, Owen Hart MADE the Slammy's. I laughed everytime he held one up as thought he just became World Champion. Maybe WWE could name the Slammy for Entertaining Wrestler of the year after Owen.

Thanks and keep up the Great work on Smackdown!!

 

jr

if you could choose a team to play the sooners,which team would you pick?

 

hey jr

 do you think that the undertaker is a great wrestler or is he just an act?

 

"My question is about the women's wrestling in the WWE. I know there are a few good wrestlers in the Diva category of the company, such as Nattie Neidhart, Victoria, Mickey James, Beth Pheonix and...well, that's it. Alundra Blaze was great. Lita was amazing! Have you seen the TNA women? They can wrestle! Some of the women's matches are better than the men's. To me, the women's wrestling in the WWE is a good time to take a nature break or grab a snack or switch the channel and see what else is on."

Both Raw and Smackdown's women's divisions have picked up lately with the women you mentioned, plus Melina, Jillian Hall, and Katie Lea on Raw doing well.  The women's division on Smackdown is getting better all the time, too, with Michelle McCool making a well-bulit heel turn and Gail Kim likely to debut soon.  If you're not watching them, that's your loss.

And speaking of Gail, she has almost killed the TNA Knockouts division by returning to WWE.  Watching the Knockouts divsions from a couple months ago with Gail and now without her is like night and day.  Christy Hemme is now the top babyface instead of Gail, which isn't a positive trade. 

 

Hello JR,

My question is about the women's wrestling in the WWE. I know there are a few good wrestlers in the Diva category of the company, such as Nattie Neidhart, Victoria, Mickey James, Beth Pheonix and...well, that's it. Alundra Blaze was great.

To me, the women's wrestling in the WWE is a good time to take a nature break or grab a snack or switch the channel and see what else is on. The wrestling is horrible. Please don't respond with "you can always switch the channel". Please let me know whether there are serious plans to either remove that segment or to take it more seriously.

Thanks,

AZE
