A few notes about this project.

 

We begin in December 2002. For the purposes of overall gameplay we’re going to do a little hand waving so far as we’re considering our first night to be the night after Survivor Series 2002. tl;dr----Nothing that happened in real life following Survivor Series will have occurred.

 

We will not be simulating the ‘B’ shows. For all intents and purposes, the dark matches before PPVs could be considered to have happened on Sunday Night Heat.

 

As far as the breakdown, I’ll be handling RAW while Kimberly will be handling Smackdown and obviously we’ll be working together on joint PPVs, etc. We do share the same developmental system but that might change down the road.

 

The 2003 era has always interested us as a chance for redemption following the dumpster fire which was the InVasion. We hope you’ll enjoy our take on it.

Hartford Civic Center, Hartford CT

 

 

[A video recap of the Survivor Series is shown, focusing on the Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Championship. It’s followed by the usual RAW opening, and finally JR and the King welcome us to Monday Night RAW but they don’t get to say much else before the music of Triple H fills the arena.]

 

Grade: 88

 

------------

 

[Triple H and Ric Flair come down to the ring and the former champ is hot. He grabs the mic and demands his title rematch. He says Shawn Michaels got lucky and that he went into the Chamber with an injury to begin with but tonight he will take back what belongs to him. Michaels’ music hits and he comes to the top of the stage. He says some things never change. Triple H always has an excuse or something to blame for losing instead of himself. But he’ll gladly give him another opportunity to lose and complain and says he’ll see Triple H in the ring later tonight.]

 

Grade: 88

 

------------

 

[backstage we see Eric Bischoff on the phone. From his side of the conversation he appears to be talking to Scott Steiner. He says it’ll be like old times and he’ll see him at Armageddon. When they hang up, Bischoff looks very confidant and full of himself.]

 

Grade: 75

[backstage, RVD is hanging out being a laid back dude when William Regal and Lance Storm come up and question why he’s here if he’s not ready to fight. RVD says he’s always ready to fight and if they want a match that’s all they have to say. Regal says find a partner and they’ll teach him a proper lesson. RVD says they ought to be careful what they ask for.]

 

Grade: 68

The Dudley Boys vs 3 Minute Warnng w/Rico

 

If you’re looking for technical skills you’re out of luck. These two teams brawl from the opening bell and though each man gets into the match legally it’s an even match which eventually spills out of the ring. Jamal flattens D-Von while Bubba and Rosey who are the legal men battle up the ramp. The referee reaches ten and calls for the bell.

 

Winners: None--Double Count Out.

 

Grade: 65

[As the bell rings, the four men continue to brawl around ringside, eventually spilling out into the crowd and fighting out of sight.]

[The camera finds Shawn Michaels in Eric Bischoff’s office. Bischoff tells him he doesn’t appreciate Michaels making a match for tonight but he can’t object because it’ll be the biggest RAW main event of all time. He wishes Michaels good luck because he’ll need it tonight.]

Grade: 51

[backstage Triple H and Ric Flair get approached by the Coach. Triple H says that last night was five on one. Tonight it’s just man to man and everyone knows he’s a better man than Shawn Michaels. See, last night Michaels made the biggest mistake of his life. He took something that belongs to Triple H. And tonight he’ll pay the price.]

[storm and Regal are announced first, the RVD who comes out alone. Then he looks back for his partner.

 

 

 

 

Regal and Storm look at each other, now not so confidant.]

 

William Regal and Lance Storm vs Rob Van Dam and Rhyno

 

Regal and Storm try and keep RVD in their corner and it works early on but soon Van Dam pulls out some stiff kicks and makes the tag to his partner. Rhyno blasts both opponents with a double clothesline, and follows it up with several powerful attacks on Storm who is the legal man. RVD gets back in with a tag, hitting his signature moves. When Regal tries to get the referee’s attention Rhyno gores him, taking him out of action. RVD climbs to the top and comes off with the Five Star Frog Splash for the win.

 

Winners: Rob Van Dam and Rhyno

 

Grade: 73

RVD and Rhyno climb the ropes to celebrate their win before exchanging a hug and raising each other’s hands in victory.]

[When we return from the break World Tag Team Champions Christian and Chris Jericho are talking about the prior match and begin mocking RVD and Rhyno. Jericho goes on and on but Christian stops smiling. Jericho slowly gets the clue and turns to face Rhyno and RVD. RVD says Jericho better get all his laughs in now because soon, him and Rhyno will be taking those belts. They walk off leaving the Champions looking uncertain.]

 

Grade: 73

Batista vs Maven

 

You can spell this match s-q-u-a-s-h. Batista runs through Maven, literally, in under a minute by first decimating him with a clothesline that sends him helicoptering in the middle of the ring, then just as quick he’s planted with a Batista Bomb.

 

Winner: Batista

 

Grade: 40

 

------------

 

[batista won’t stop and is a man possessed. He picks up Maven and delivers another Batista Bomb. Then another, and another. Finally the referee confers with the ring announcer and declares that he’s reversing his decision and Batista is disqualified. The Animal doesn’t seem to care and leaves Maven lying in a heap.]

 

Grade: 42

[When we return, JR and the King inform us that during the break Eric Bischoff announced that at Armageddon we’ll see a fatal four-way for the World Tag Team Championship. Jericho and Christian will defend against the Dudleys, 3 Minute Warning, and RVD and Rhyno.]

 

Grade: 68

World Heavyweight Championship

Shawn Michaels © vs Triple H w/Ric Flair

 

The crowd is hyped for this one and they don’t disappoint. From the opening bell they’re at war, with Triple H controlling the early moments but the champion makes a comeback, including knocking the Nature Boy off the apron when he tries to distract the referee. On a roll, Michaels floors Triple H with a series of running forearms, then climbs to the top and nails a big elbow but Triple H manages to get his foot on the bottom rope at the last second. Unseen by the referee, Flair low blows Michaels from the outside, allowing Triple H to mount a comeback but when Michaels ducks a clothesline, he bounds off the ropes and both men clothesline each other. Laying flat on the mat the referee begins his ten count but he doesn’t get past three when…

 

 

 

 

Kane comes down to the ring, and when both men get to their feet, he grabs each with a hand and drops them both with a double chokelslam. The referee has no alternative but to call for the bell.

 

Winner: None--No Contest

 

Grade: 93

 

------------

 

[Kane isn’t done as he batters both men, delivering another chokeslam to Triple H. When he turns, HBK attempts some Sweet Chin Music but Kane catches his foot, then scoops him up in a Tombstone piledriver and plants him. As the show ends Kane causes the turnbuckles to explode and is standing over both men looking like a true monster.]

 

Grade: 90

She says that last Sunday at the Survivor Series, against her better instincts, she sanctioned a match between Brock Lesnar and The Big Show for the WWE Championship. She did that knowing that Brock Lesnar was injured and should not have wrestled. She regrets that. And she regrets that Brock was screwed out of his title by that weasel Paul Heyman. Stephanie vows to make it up to Brock Lesnar and she announces that he will receive a WWE Championship match…..but he will not get it tonight. </p><p> </p><p> The fact is that Brock’s ribs aren’t healed enough and until WWE medical can clear Brock to return to active competition, Stephanie has no choice but to prevent Brock from competing in this ring. And that leaves a big hole for Smackdown’s main event at Armageddon. A hole that will be filled here tonight. </p><p> </p><p> Smackdown is all about opportunity. And so Stephanie will give opportunity to four of Smackdown’s brightest superstars. And so, in this very ring tonight, in the main event it will be Edge taking on Chris Benoit taking on Kurt Angle taking on Rey Mysterio in a fatal fourway match. And the winner will face the new WWE Champion, the Big Show, in three weeks at Armageddon.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 80</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43366" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><strong><span style="color:#000080;">WWE Cruiserweight Championship</span></strong><p><strong><span style="color:#000080;"> Jamie Noble w/Nidia vs Billy Kidman</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> Noble attacks Kidman as soon as the match starts and, for a few minutes, it appears that the former champion will be able to find some of his lost magic.

It spans a commercial break and during the first half, no one really takes control. Smackdown returns from commercial with Edge locked into the crossface and about to tap out while Rey is on the floor hurt. Kurt comes in and breaks up the crossface and that makes Benoit angry and the two “partners” begin to go at it. Each trade chops, each are able to hit some suplexes on the other. They take turns trying to pin one another before Edge and Rey get back in and all four go again. Edge pairs off with his former rival, Angle and Rey pairs off with Benoit. Soon, Angle is thrown to the floor and Rey and Edge team up on Benoit. Rey goes for the West Coast Pop while Edge holds Benoit but the crippler is able to send Edge flying into the ropes and that causes Rey to crotch himself hard and hes out. Benoit goes for the crossface onto Edge but Edge rolls out of it, throws Benoit into the ropes, ducks a clothesline and nails a spear. Just as hes about to cover, Angle is back in and hits Edge with the Angle slam from behind….for the 1…2….3. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner and challenger to WWE Champion the Big Show at Armageddon: Kurt Angle</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 78</strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Kurt Angle celebrates his victory.

Rey jumps onto Show who catches him in mid air and chokeslams him. Edge tries to spear the champion but Show laughs it off and, with one hand, launches the leader of the Edge Army over the rope. Benoit tries chopping Show, but Big Show grabs him by his head and head butts the Crippler before going for an eye gouge. Angle has slid back in the ring with a chair and waits for Show, Big Show turns around and punches the chair into Angle’s head. He lifts his challenger up and chokeslam’s Angle onto Benoit. There are four bodies everywhere as Big Show stands tall. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 74</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Commercial break </strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> When Smackdown returns, WWE medical staff, WWE officials and Stephanie McMahon are at ringside tending to Angle, Rey, Edge and Benoit. The Big Show made good on his threat to create carnage. </p><p> </p><p> The camera catches up to Show and Heyman as they are laughing walking through the back to the parking lot. As they walk out we see a close up of Heyman’s face that turns from jubilation to fear..we see Show’s fearful face and the camera pans to Brock Lesnar still in the parking area. Show pushes Heyman behind him and orders him to run and Heyman does run to the distance. Lesnar charges and Show runs as well, Lesnar gets ahold of the Champion who kicks Lesnar off him and Lesnar falls to the ground. Show gets his footing and runs for a black limo that Heyman is hanging out of. Show throws himself into the car and the car speeds off as Lesnar chases after it. Heyman escapes the clutches of the Next Big Thing tonight. </p><p> </p><p> The last image we see is Brock Lesnar running after a speeding limo as Smackdown goes off the air. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 77</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Overall Show Grade: 83</strong></p>

Richards controls the early going but soon the Hurricane makes a comeback. He begins to build momentum and looks ready to put Richards away when Victoria gets up on the apron, distracting him. Suddenly Trish Stratus runs down and pulls her off the apron, tackling her and they begin to brawl. Richards tries to attack from behind, but Hurricane sidesteps it and hits the Eye of the Hurricane for the win.

 

Winner: The Hurricane

 

Grade: 61

 

------------

 

[The bell is ringing but the ladies aren't paying the least bit of attention. Trish and Victoria each have a hand full of hair and are rolling around trying to get the high point for attacking the other. Hurricane and Richards along with some officials separate them, literally picking them up to do so. The women want to continue but it doesn't happen again.]

 

Grade: 67

[backstage, Jericho and Christian come across the Dudleys and begin trading insults with them. Bubba in particular gets very heated which allows 3 Minute Warning to attack from behind and the four of them lay out the Dudley Boys, though there is some unease between the attackers as well.]

 

Grade: 66

Booker T w/Goldust Lance Storm w/William Regal

 

Booker and Storm trade the advantage in the first half of the match. Regal aids his partner from the outside which draws in Goldust but also the ref allowing for a quick double team on the other end. Finally Booker regains his footing, and strings together a few moves, putting Storm on his heels. When he hits the ropes, Regal tries to trip him but this time Goldust hits him with a lariat. Booker bounces off the ropes and nails the scissor kick for the win.

 

Winner: Booker T

 

Grade: 82

 

------------

 

[Regal and Storm are furious and try to sneak attack after the match but Booker and Goldust are ready and stand their ground, causing the heels to reteat.]

[Eric Bischoff is in his office when Triple H and Ric Flair burst in. Triple H is furious about Kane and demands that Bischoff do something about it and make it right. He says he deserves another shot at the title. Bischoff says that he agrees, Triple H should get another shot and he's going to find Kane and set things straight. Triple H leaves but Flair hangs back and tells Bischoff he better fix it tonight. Bischoff sneers and promises Flair that he will.]

 

Grade: 89

Batista vs Tommy Dreamer

Batista is all over Dreamer as soon as the bell rings, battering him from corner to corner. Dreamer tries to fight back but try as he might, Batista's pure strength and fury carry him through and soon he delivers a devastating powerbomb for the obvious victory.

 

Winner: Batista

 

Grade: 55

 

------------

 

[Following the match Batista won't stop, delivering another powerbomb. He's about to pick up Dreamer for another when Jeff Hardy runs down to the ring but Batista swats him away. Hardy goes to the outside, collects a chair, then goes back into the ring, smacking Batista three times allowing officials to pull Dreamer from the ring before he exits as well. Batista stares him down with a wild eyed gaze, seemingly unfazed from the chairs.]

[bischoff finds Kane in a back room down in the basement of the arena. He says that while he cannot condone what Kane did last week...damn was it exciting and at Armageddon it'll be a triple threat. Michaels defending against Triple H....and Kane. Oh, and one more thing. Bischoff has never liked Ric Flair so tonight in the main event, it'll be Flair versus Kane. Bischoff mentions he'd like to see the same kind of excitement tonight before leaving Kane alone.]

 

Grade: 76

 

------------

 

[The show is interrupted by the RNN logo. Randy Orton appears on the Titantron and lets everyone know that his return is on track and he'll be back in the ring very soon but incase they've forgotten, he has a small reminder for them. A video package plays for about thirty seconds of some of his highlights before returning to him and his smirk as it fades to black.]

 

Grade: 50

 

------------

 

[backstage, Shawn Michaels is with the Coach. He says that he's not surprised about the triple threat. Bischoff is a slimy no-good leech but it doesn't matter. Triple H, Kane or both of them the Heartbreak Kid will do what he always does: steal the show and walk out the champ.]

 

Grade: 86

Christian, Chris Jericho and 3 Minute Warning vs The Dudley Boyz, Rob Van Dam, and Rhyno

The Dudleys still look hobbled, but they put up their normal fight. The match switches from pure brawling to some technical aspects but flows nicely. Eventually RVD gets the hot tag, cleans house, and when Jericho looks to take control, Rhyno makes a blind tag and when Jericho turns around he catches a Gore from the manbeast allowing the faces to pick up the win.

 

Winners: The Dudley Boys, Rob Van Dam and Rhyno

 

Grade: 82

 

------------

 

[As if losing the match wasn't bad enough the heels are sent from the ring leaving the faces and Rico. Surrounded, he tries to get away but all four men give him some good hits, while another table is set up and eventually he walks right into a 3D.]

 

Grade: 69

 

------------

 

[backstage Ric Flair is getting ready. Triple H begins to offer some advice and gameplan saying they'll both jump Kane but Flair stops him and says he'll deal with Kane tonight because nobody in the arena thinks he can starting with Bischoff so the Nature Boy is going to go out there and shove it straight up Bischoff's ass. WOOOOOO! He leaves but Triple H looks very concerned.]

 

Grade: 86

[backstage, Eric Bischoff and Chief Morley discuss how important it is for RAW to sign Scott Steiner at Armageddon. Bischoff is very confidant saying that he knows Steiner will choose them because it's 4-life.]

 

Grade: 69

 

------------

 

Ric Flair vs Kane

 

Flair stands face to face with Kane as the bell rings and begins chopping him over and over but Kane just stands there and takes it. Flair can't believe it but soon Kane slings him into the corner and goes to town on him. Flair hits all his usual spots and is in a lot of trouble. Triple H comes down to ringside just as Kane picks up Flair and delivers a big Tombstone. He makes the cover watching Triple H all the way.

 

Winner: Kane

 

Grade:82

 

------------

 

[Triple H climbs up on the apron, staring down Kane when Michaels comes down the ramp and helps dump him over the rope into the ring. Kane snatches him up and delivers a big choke slam. Michaels stays on the outside, locking eyes with Kane as the show goes off the air.]

 

Grade: 88

 

 

Overall: 85

Tajiri comes out alone and as the Guerreros celebrate the idea that Tajiri has no one on his side, out comes...FUNAKI?

Soon Chavo and Funaki are in it and they are surprisingly even matched. The difference maker is when Eddie nails Tajiri from behind in the knee and the Japanese Buzzsaw goes down. Soon, the Guerreros are on him and take him out of this match. With his partner down, Funaki cannot survive the onslaught of the Guerreros and its not long before Eddie hits the Frog Splash and retains the title. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winners and still WWE Tag Team Champions: Los Guerreros</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 70</strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match, Chavo grabs a chair and blasts Funaki in the back multiple times.

She starts to give him a tour of the backstage area when they soon bump into Paul Heyman and the WWE Champion, the Big Show, as they make their way to the ring. Heyman looks at Steiner and warns Big Poppa Pump to ignore Stephanie’s sales pitch and go to Monday Night Raw. For this is Paul Heyman’s Kingdom and the Big Show is the enforcer of his throne and if Steiner comes here, the Champ will bury him alive. Big Show laughs and pushes him aside as he and Heyman head down a hallway.

But before they do, Paul Heyman wants to address last week. You see, the Big Show was merely helping Brock Lesnar last week but refusing to fight him because had he done so, the Big Show would’ve finished off the “Next Big Thing” and there would be no WWE Championship rematch for Brock Lesnar…..</p><p> </p><p> Stephanie’s music is heard as the General Manager of Smackdown comes to the stage. She says she is glad that the Big Show did not injure Lesnar because it would truly be something horrific for Smackdown if that happened. Which is why, until he is medically cleared, Brock Lesnar will not be permitted to be at Smackdown any longer. Stephanie says she is doing this not to punish Brock, but to save him from himself, and to protect Smackdown’s long term investment. And should Brock Lesnar defy Stephanie, should he decide to come to Smackdown before WWE’s medical staff clears him, Brock Lesnar will forfeit his rematch for the WWE Championship. But, for the Big Show, he has to make it past Kurt Angle at Armageddon and the WWE Champion will get a sense of what the Olympic Gold Medalist can do when, next week on Smackdown, The Big Show will compete with Kurt Angle in a Non-Title Matchup only 3 days before their title match at Armageddon. </p><p> </p><p> That’s if the Big Show even makes it to next week as WWE Champion.

After a couple of power moves, Rikishi scores a very close two count. Soon, the Big Show is back in control and starts unloading with powerful body punches to Rikishi and the two take a tumble to the floor. On the floor, the Big show goes to throw ring steps at Rikishi but he moves out of the way and that miss allows the big man to send the Champion into the ring post. Back in the ring, the Big Show goes for the Chokeslam but Rikishi gets out and delivers a superkick to the Big Show. A second super kick has the champion in the corner. Rikishi runs at the champion and throws his ass into the stomach of the Big Show and the Champion sits down in the corner. With Heyman screaming at ring side, Rikishi goes for the Rump Shaka when out of nowhere, <strong>John Cena</strong> jumps into the ring and blasts Rikishi from behind. This forces the ref to call for a DQ. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner by disqualification: Rikishi</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match, Cena and the Big Show double team Rikishi and eventually lay waste to the big man.

The story of this match is Rey trying to hit all the high flying moves that he can hit and Benoit trying to ground him. They go through multiple near falls early on before Benoit takes control and begins to work on Mysterio’s neck. He starts throwing Rey around the ring with suplex after suplex and mocks Edge as he does so. But Rey Mysterio will not stay down and soon battles back but each time he goes for a high flying maneuver, Benoit has a counter. Soon Rey is in the crossface but Rey will not tap out and he gets out, ducks under a clothesline and hits a hurricanrana that sends Benoit to the floor. As Rey goes to the top rope to fly, Eddie and Chavo come out and distract him and Edge. This distraction allows Benoit to get back in the ring and come from behind to set up a German Suplex that Rey then lands on his feet. Benoit charges, Rey trips him and soon hits the 619. A west coast pop and it’s a 1…2..3. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner: Rey Mysterio</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 74</strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Following the match, Eddie and Chavo run to the ring but Edge is in the ring with Rey and the Tag Champs hesitate. Edge and Rey don’t see Benoit slide into the ring with a chair and he waffles both of them which brings in Los Guerreros. Benoit and the tag team champions start taking their turns picking off Rey and Edge. </p><p> </p><p> Of all people, it is Kurt Angle, again, who comes out and makes the save, standing down his own tag team partner in Benoit as well as the tag team champions. The Big Show comes out to the entrance way and stares down his challenger as Benoit and the Guerreros retreat and Angle, Edge and Rey all tentatively shake hands as Smackdown goes off the air. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 79 </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Overall Show Grade: 78</strong></p>

For the second straight week Jeff Hardy showed up to work in no condition to perform. Last week as we told you, WWE fined him and he appeared to be ready to change his behavior but those now appear to be false hopes. Hardy will now be out for thirty days, missing a big payday for the Armageddon pay per view. Sources within WWE suggest that if it happens again Hardy may be looking at a choice between rehab and the unemployment line.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

When Goldust does put some offense together he's stopped by a low blow from the outside thanks to Storm. Booker runs around and begins fighting with him, drawing in the referee.

Kane's music hits and he stalks down to the ring, climbing over the top rope to enter. Both Triple H and Michaels are dividing their attention between the Big Red Machine and each other. Bischoff, still basking in his genius offer Kane the pen and tells him to sign it. Kane doesn't move. Again Bischoff, who is beginning to get a little upset asks Kane to sign it but he doesn't move. Finally Bischoff gets in Kane's face demanding that he put his mark on the contract, right now. Kane looks down at Bischoff, raises his arms, and when he drops them, the contract book and it's table bursts into flames. Michaels and Triple H move back, looking very concerned about what just happened and the ending shot of the show is them from the back, Kane looking at them with the flaming table in between and Bischoff off to the side with a wide grin.]</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 91</strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Overall: 83 </strong></p>

It shows the announcement of Big Show vs Kurt Angle in a non title match up this week on Smackdown. The video cuts to Los Guerreros laying out Tajiri and Funaki and Edge and Rey saving them, Los Guerrero’s threat, Benoit vs Rey and Los Guerreros trying to make good on the threat which brings out Angle and ultimately The Big Show and everyone nervous. ]</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 89 </strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Rather than the normal Smackdown opening video, we go inside the Phillips Arena in HOTlanta GA as the music for Smackdown General Manager, Stephanie McMahon, hits. She comes out and says she is here for a few reasons with the first being that given the carnage of the last few weeks she has a warning to Kurt Angle and The Big Show. Their WWE Championship Match this Sunday at Armageddon is to go off without a hitch. And yes, they will compete tonight in a non-title match, but to ensure that it is a straight up wrestling contest and to prevent any shenanigans that Big Show and Heyman may have planned, the entire Smackdown locker room will be outside the ring because our main event tonight is now a LUMBERJACK MATCH. </p><p> </p><p> The second announcement is that since Los Guerrero’s and Edge and Rey Mysterio have taken an interest in each other they will settle their issues this Sunday when the WWE Tag Team Champions, Los Guerreros, defend their titles against Rey Mysterio& Edge. </p><p> </p><p> The final announcement is that in two weeks, 2002 will end and 2003 will be here. It will be the dawn of a new year as Smackdown starts the car to the road to Wrestlemania. And an episode that big needs to be special. An episode that big needs to be unpredictable. An episode that big, Smackdown’s first episode of the new year…needs to be LIVE! That’s right, Smackdown will present its very first Live episode to ring in 2003 in two weeks where we can promise, anything, anything can happen. </p><p> </p><p> Enjoy tonight’s final show before Armageddon.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 92 </strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> In the back we see Chris Benoit warming up.

They hype up Smackdown LIVE in two weeks, as well as the main event between Kurt Angle and the Big Show now being a Lumberjack match. They also inform us that two decisions were just made by the office of Stephanie McMahon: the first is that this Sunday Jamie Noble will get his final shot at WWE Cruiserweight Champion, Billy Kidman. But here tonight, Kidman will team with Rey Mysterio& Edge against Los Guerreros and Jamie Noble in a six man tag team match. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 62</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43366" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><span>http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y11/kimrok1982/TEW%20Diary/civilwar/smackdown/stamboliVSbenoit_zpsdjtggh8v.jpg</span></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> This match is pretty much a squash as Stamboli doesn’t really have a chance.

Hell, Benoit is not even on the pay per view this Sunday. We are in Atlanta, home of WCW, home of some of Benoit’s greatest successes. And it is time that Smackdown remembers who the hell I am. I am the crippler. I am the rabid wolverine. And next month we begin the road to Wrestlemania 19, a show that Chris Benoit will headline because tonight, the crippler announces that he is the first entrant in the Royal Rumble match next month.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 70 </strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ===========================================</p><p> </p><p> In the back we see Stephanie McMahon finishing up a call. She excitedly closes her phone and looks at the camera. She informs everyone that that was Scott Steiner and that he has made up his mind on whether to join Raw or sign with Smackdown.

It shows entering a warehouse building with a WWE ring in it. Wrestlers are working out, Henry enters the ring and one by one decimates everyone without ever saying a word. He walks out of the ring and out of the warehouse and the words are splattered on the screen in blood like lettering “Mark Henry – Returning Soon” and displays the Smackdown logo. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 72</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Cole and Tazz welcome us back to Smackdown and take us to last week where Rikishi nearly had the WWE Championship won from the Big Show. Instead, John Cena rushes to the ring and attacks his opponent at Armageddon and ruins Rikishi’s moment. We then see Cena and Big Show take out Rikishi before Angle made the save. Rikishi is not here tonight but we can confirm that he will be at Armageddon this Sunday…this cues John Cena’s music as he comes down to the announce table. </p><p> </p><p> He grabs a microphone and says that he couldn’t help but overhear Michael Cole’s announcement that Rikishi is fine and will be at Armageddon this Sunday. Well that is good for John Cena, but that is bad for Rikishi. You see, fat man, last week was your chance. Last week was the one shot you had at making it out of this company with your health intact. But now? Now your time is up and you’re out of chances. John Cena is the *real* next big thing around here. John Cena will soon be the franchise player of Smackdown and Rikishi is just a joke. I tried to be nice. I tried to give him an easy way out…now I’ll have to put him down. This Sunday at Armageddon, John Cena makes Rikishi his bitch. </p><p> </p><p> Word. Life. </p><p> </p><p> Cena throws the microphone at Cole and Tazz and taunts the fans as he walks to the back. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 75 </strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> In the back we see Dawn Marie preparing for a photo shoot of her own when Al Wilson walks in. He is all sad and pathetic as he says he thinks Dawn Marie has gone too far. He doesn’t want his daughter hurt and Dawn tells him that it is about tough love. Dawn won’t really hurt Torrie and Dawn won’t actually make Torrie her slave when she wins this Sunday. She will just teach Torrie that Al and Dawn love her and sometimes that’s not easy to do. “Now go back to the hotel room, I’ll finish up here and be back there soon. “</p><p> Al walks out unsure but listening to his fiancé and Dawn looks pleased. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 60 </strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Commercial Break</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Smackdown returns to Crash Holly in the ring and soon Matt Hardy’s music plays.

She makes some more jokes at how disgusting Al Wilson is as she walks out of her locker room. She hangs up and walks down the hallway and we see the camera pan back to see that walking out of a corner is Al Wilson who has flowers in his hands.

Somehow he is able to get out and backdrop Jamie to the floor and tag in Kidman who goes to the top rope and does a shooting star press from the top rope to the floor taking out Noble. This brings in the Guerreros and Edge and Rey and soon everyone is fighting. The finish comes when Edge goes to spear Eddie but Eddie sidesteps him and Edge crashes into the ring post. This leaves Rey who escapes the 3 amigo’s and sends Eddie to the floor but is dropped with a brainbuster by Chavo. Eddie climbs to the top rope and hits the frog splash for the 1..2..3. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winners: Jamie Noble & the WWE Tag Team Champions Los Guerreros</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match Noble and the Champs back up the ramp celebrating.

Shannon and Matt are mocking this young man to start but after a few hard punches Shannon takes him seriously. The two start having a competitive match that is soon taken over by Shannon. He displays strong wrestling skills and a serious side as he systematically takes apart the young Kendrick but he gets too cocky and soon Kendrick is mounting a comeback. This brings up Hardy who grabs Kendrick and holds him as Shannon charges, but Kendrick moves and Moore crashes into his Sensi. Soon Kendrick hits the Sliced Bread #2 and gets the stunning 3 count. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner: Brian Kendrick</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match Kendrick, stunned, races to the back before Hardy and Moore have time to react.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 40 </strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> In the back, Kurt Angle is interviewed in his locker room. He says that he thanks Stephanie McMahon for changing tonight’s match, not that he needed it, but it only serves to prove what Angle has known all along – the Big Show is a coward. The Big Show is a paper champion who is only champion because of Paul Heyman. And this tonight, Smackdown’s Olympic Hero will take a bite out of our big monster, but I won’t finish the meal. I will leave just enough for this Sunday at Armageddon, when I finish this and once again, become WWE Champion. Oh its true….its damn true. Angle walks out of his locker room determined.

Every time the Olympic champion gets back into this match, Show throws him out to the heels who beat him down. For the first few times the officials are able to separate and keep order and when the Big Show tries it for the 3rd time, Angle ducks and throws Show over the ropes to the floor of the faces. They go after the Champion and the heels rush over and now its craziness. Angle goes to the top rope and flies off taking out everyone, the champion in the process. Soon Angle and Big Show are back in the ring and now theyre really going at it and trading near falls. Angle goes for the Angle Slam but Heyman gets on the ring apron, this distracts Angle and allows the Big Show to hit the chokeslam. 1..2….Kurt Angle kicks out at the last minute. Big Show tries to go for it again but this time Angle rolls out of it and delivers a surprising German suplex. He goes for the Angle Lock but again, Heyman is on the apron. Angle goes to him and decks him and then, realizing the set up, ducks under a punch attempt by the Big Show, hits the Angle Slam. 1…2…3.</p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner: Kurt Angle</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 79</strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> Following the match, The Big Show is furious and goes after Angle. This brings Edge and Rey into the ring to try to help Kurt and they all three attack The Big Show. Soon Los Guerreros are in the ring to try to help, and soon Kidman and Noble are in the ring and, suddenly, its chaos as the competitors who are facing off this Sunday are fighting each other now. The other lumberjacks are also fighting around the ring and Smackdown goes off the air with chaos as officials flood the ring to try to calm everything with Tazz and Cole screaming about the end indeed being here and urging everyone to not miss Armageddon this Sunday on Pay Per View. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 81</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Overall Show Grade: 83 </strong></p>

The end comes when Storm breaks up a pinfall attempt, drawing Booker into the ring and distracting the referee.

Dawn throws Torrie on the ground and goes to him, Dawn slaps him and Al gets a spine and pushes Dawn back into Torrie who hits a Tornado DDT onto Dawn for the 1..2..3.

Soon, Kidman has taken over and he hits the Shooting Star Press but as soon as he covers, Nidia is on the apron. Kidman goes over to her and she starts making out with him, Kidman pushes her away but as he does, Noble does a drop kick to the back of his right knee. Soon, Noble is on Kidman’s leg and uses a bunch of old school submission holds. Every time Kidman mounts a comeback, his right knee gives out. But Noble cannot seal the deal. Noble goes for a brainbuster but Kidman gets out and turns it into a German suplex. Kidman climbs the ropes but as soon as he gets up top, his knee buckles again. Noble races up top and performs a T-BoneSuplex from the top rope. Cover..1….2…Kidman barely kicks out.

Eddie goes up top and does a dropkick from the top to the floor.

He bounds off the ropes, with a flying forearm, then flips up to his feet. He stands in the corner waiting for Triple H to get up and when he does, he launches another superkick but Triple H dodges, then kicks him in the stomach and tries to go for a Pedigree. Michaels revereses it by pulling his legs out from under him, then slingshots Triple H into the corner, where he hits his head on the post. With Triple H out on his feet Michaels connects with Sweet Chin Music and falls on top of Triple H.

Michaels comes close to making a tag several times but they always manage to stop it. Jericho tries to put him into the Walls of Jericho but Michaels twists and reverses it, sending Jericho into a flip. He crawls over and makes the tag to Kane who hits the ring on fire, no pun intended, battering both of his opponents. Christian, once tagged in, fares no better than Jericho and it planted with a big chokeslam. Kane steps back, close enough for Michaels to make a blind tag and as Kane stares at him, Michaels climbs to the top and comes up with a big elbow onto Christian for the victory. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Winners: Shawn Michaels and Kane</strong></p><p><strong> Grade: 88 </strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <span>http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y224/Consrvtve/2003/Logos/raw%20break_zpso1uolbku.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p> [As the fans cheer Michaels and Kane watch each other warily as the referee attempts to raise their hands in victory.

The last photo is of Angle seething while Brock stares. ]</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 88</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> [instead of the usual Smackdown opening, we go directly to the arena as "Medals", the theme of Kurt Angle, is heard as the Olympic champion power walks to the ring. He gets in the ring and laments how Brock Lesnar screwed him Sunday at Armageddon. He shows still footage of how he had Big Show down, was about to become WWE Champion and then Lesnar pulled the referee out of the ring. Angle demands that Lesnar comes out right now because he wants an explanation. </p><p> </p><p> Here Comes The Pain - Brock Lesnar arrives and walks half way down the ramp before stopping. A PA hands him a microphone. Lesnar, cold, stares at a furious Angle and simply says "I owe you nothing, Kurt". </p><p> </p><p> Before Kurt can respond, we get the arrival of Smackdown General Manager, Stephanie McMahon. She comes to the top of the ramp and says "You don't owe Kurt Angle an explanation, but you damned sure owe me one. You messed with my WWE Championship bout at Armageddon and I want to know why. Now."</p><p> </p><p> Lesnar looks at Stephanie and says what happened this past Sunday was her doing. Big Show and Heyman screwed Lesnar at Survivor Series and Stephanie not only refuses to allow a rematch, but banishes me from Smackdown and gives MY title match to someone else? "Kurt, this isn't personal between the two of us, but I want you hear me clearly...and look at me when I'm talking to you. The only one putting the Big Show down will be me."</p><p> </p><p> Stephanie tries to reason that she was doing what was best for him and she says that she is truly sorry to Kurt for what has transpired. But she has a job to do and it is her duty to announce that Brock Lesnar is contractually bound to receive his WWE Championship rematch. And that match will take place, next week on the LIVE special edition of WWE Smackdown! </p><p> </p><p> She wishes Brock good luck next week and apologizes again to Kurt. Brock looks pleased and Kurt looks furious.]</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 89</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> [A recap video of all the Mark Henry vignettes air.

He asks her if she saw Eric Bischoff's comments on about her on Monday? She welcomes him to the brand of opportunity, Smackdown, and then says "oh, you mean when he called me a slut?" Matthews nervously says yes. Stephanie looks him in the eye and says "I don't care what Bischoff says. He won't be here much longer. If there is one thing you can count on with Vince McMahon, its that he never makes an idle threat."

They hype the Lesnar vs Big Show match next week in the main event of the special Live edition of Smackdown and take us to Stephanie McMahon’s office for an important announcement. </p><p> </p><p> Stephanie is at her desk and says that since Los Guerreros were true to form this past Sunday and cheated and stole a victory against Edge & Rey Mysterio, next week on Smackdown Live, Edge & Rey will get their rematch – inside a steel cage. </p><p> </p><p> But that is next week. Tonight, by the order of Stephanie McMahon, Los Guerreros will be in action when they team with WWE Champion, The Big Show, to take on Edge, Rey Mysterio and the man that got screwed out of the WWE title last Sunday, Kurt Angle. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 74</strong></p><p> </p><p> ===============================================</p><p> </p><p> [Cole and Tazz take us back to last Sunday at Armageddon and show us how dominant John Cena was against Rikishi.

Cena’s arrogance nearly gets the better of him as Palumbo lays into the youngster with a series of lefts and rights and scores two near falls on Cena. Cena bails out to the floor and suckers Palumbo in and throws him into ring steps. Back inside the ring, Cena takes over and starts using his strong wrestling skills to work on Palumbo. Cena gets a near fall before Palumbo recovers and tries a piledriver on Cena but he backdrops Palumbo, hits the FU and scores the pinfall. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winner: John Cena</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 64 </strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match Cena gets on the mic.

It is just a wrestling clinic with the Big Show limited and most of the work done early on is between Los Guerreros picking off each opponent one by one and working on a body part (Rey’s leg’s, Edge’s arm, Kurt’s neck) and the babyfaces aren’t able to really get much control because everytime they start to make a come back, Big Show is in to level the playing field. Most of the match, Show is taunting Angle and Heyman is constantly trying to get inside Kurt’s head and make him snap but the Olympic champ keeps his cool. </p><p> </p><p> The tide turns when Eddie holds Rey for Big Show to punch in the head but Rey slips out and Eddie takes a hard hit which knocks Latino Heat out. This allows Rey to get back to Kurt who finally gets his hands on the Big Show and he is able to clothesline the champion to the floor. Suddenly it’s a car wreck on the floor as Chavo, Edge, Rey and a returning Eddie have all taken turns crashing into the mass of bodies on the floor. On the floor, Eddie and Chavo both get taken out and inside the ring Rey goes for the West Coast Pop onto the Big Show who holds him up but Edge spears the Champion and that nearly topples him but with Rey still on top, Kurt is able to come from behind. Rey jumps off just as Angle lifts Show up into an Angle slam for the 1…2..3. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#000080;">Winners: Kurt Angle, Edge & Rey Mysterio</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 75 </strong></p><p> </p><p> Following the match, the heels attack Mysterio, Edge and Angle as they are celebrating their win. Eddie pulls out two pairs of handcuffs and handcuff Edge and Mysterio to the ring ropes. With Eddie and Chavo mocking their challengers next week, Big Show prepares to chokeslam Kurt Angle but the Olympic hero rolls out and delivers an Angle Slam to the champion. Eddie and Chavo turn their attention to Angle and soon it’s all 3 on Kurt. This brings out Brock who races to the ring and throws Eddie and Chavo from the ring. He floors Big Show with a clothesline and Kurt is back up, turns around and is facing Brock. Big Show, Eddie and Chavo have retreated to the entrance way and, with Edge and Rey watching on, Brock and Kurt come nose to nose as Smackdown goes off the air. </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Grade: 79 </strong></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Overall Show Grade: 80</strong></p>
