WWE Smackdown : New Plans...New Action

WWE Smackdown

New Year With New Plans

Eddie Is Down. Heidenrich Beating Down 'Taker. JBL Pins Booker T To Retain Title!

Those Words Every Smackdown Fan Dreads

And that just put the topping on one of the WWE's worst pay-per-views in awhile.

Vince McMahon was immediatly happy with JBL's reign as champ, but when he noticed RAW's ratings getting much better than Smackdown's, he knew it was time for a change.....

The rest of December went through for Smackdown as very pathetic and not well put together. When SD! icon The Undertaker heard of Vince's plan to keep JBL as champ through Wrestlemania, 'Taker was immediatly angered, and refused to perform on Smackdown, but did not request to go to RAW. Smackdown writers quickly let the vieweing audience believe Heidenrich had broken the Undertakers arm & leg at Armageddon, and Undertaker would be out for an extended period.

That would be the biggest shakeup over the last 19 days of the year. JBL is still champ, Booker is still being held down, and no championships have even been challenged. RAW has leaped over Smackdown in popularity.

It was clear to Vince, solid competition is needed, so Vince decided it was time for

Eddie Guerrero Has Nothing To Do? Sabu To WWE? Eddie G. vs. Sabu?

With the latest Smackdown meeting, the writing team is kind of in a funk, about what to do with Eddie Guerrero. SD! really want to work on a Booker T vs. JBL angle, and all other wrestlers with the capability of fueding with Eddie already have storylines.

Another story has WWE interested in free agent Sabu, and having him come in and fued with Eddie, and have some good ole' fashion ECW matches.

Edited December 15, 2004 by BacknBlackHoez

[Szumi - A Polack]

So far, looks great.

Backstory is easy enough, roster is good, and I personally hope you don't bring Sabu into SD because Sabu could never wrestle the WWE style.

Also, I take it your cutting Tough Enough out?

John Cena / Eddie Guerrero vs. Carlito Caribbean Cool & Jesus Aguilera

As expected Jesus started this match out while Carlito avoided Cena by any means necessary. Jesus got a good ass kicking and when he went to tag in Carlito, he avoided it, and demanded Jesus get back to the match. Cena grabbed his chain and wrapped it around his fist, and waited for Jesus to turn around. Carlito was trying to bite his apple to spit at Cena, but couldnt get it and just threw the apple at Cena, which struck him in the back of the head, cena then came after Carlito, meanwhile Jesus pulled a chain out of his pocket, wrappe dit around his fist, and struck Cena in his forehead. Eddie Guerrero spun Jesus around and made him punch himself with the chain, until he was busted open. Eddie then hit the frog-splash, then went outside and grabbed Carlito. Cena picked Jesus up and FU'd him, and got the 3-count. Eddie motioned to Cena, they had Carlito, they put him in the backseat of the low-rider, and Cena continued to pound him, as Eddie backed out.

RVD & Rey Mysterio jr. © vs. The Dudley Boyz - For The WWE Tag Titles

An absolutely amazing match, but with a cost. RVD & Rey came out shooting, displaying some amazing arial moves. Firs big bump came actually quite early in the match when D-Von took Rey up the ladder and suplexed him onto another ladder. RVD then kicked and punched Bubba to the ropes, he then ran against the ropes, but Bubba ducked and tossed RVD out off the ring, where he landed flat on his back, knocking the air out of him. At this point it looked as iff the Dudleyz had this match over with. However, the Dudleyz attempted a 3D on the barely conscious Rey Mysterio jr., but Rey kicked Bubba off, and bulldogged D-Von through the table the dudleyz had set up. Everyone lay not moving for about 30 seconds, before RVD got composure and pulled himself in the ring. 2 ladders were eventually stood up, RVD began climbing one, D-Von reached the ladder and began climbing himself, Bubba grabbed Rey Mysterio by the foot, and dragged him out of the ring. RVD & D-Von were battling one another. RVD does an amazing kick to the head of D-Von, D-Von falls off the ladder and out of the ring head first, threw a table, sustaining an injury. RVD grabs both belts, then both him & Rey Mysterio jr. celebrate

Overall, im dissapointed with the outcome of the event. I however do like how well the main event came out. But with D-Von's injury, the Tag Title situation is once again cloudy. Eddie Guerrero came off angry, but luckly didnt come off as a heel to the fans, thank god. Booker T didnt wrestle this week due to the fact he needed a little extra time to recover from a sore knee. We made sure he had some air-time and was talked about, so we keep him in the public eye.

[Benji]

It seemed to all be going well but... yes... there is a but... I do hope with all my heart that Sabu coming in IS just a rumour as the 'website' suggests, because bringing Sabu into the WWE would not only suck for Sabu, it would suck for the WWE because they would have signed a man who cannot have his best matches due to censors. You do need to watch stuff like censorship, JBL saying bastard on a taped show like Smackdown! is NOT going to get through.

It may seem like all I'm doing is moaning but you also need to write longer promos, character development is key to a diary and promos are mostly what people read. This diary could have potential if you just try and cover your bases, so don't be discouraged by any means.

[Guest BacknBlackHoez]

wWELoveRumors.com

- D-Von Dudleys injury is more severe than initially reported. He tore the ACL and sprained the MCL in his right knee, this occured after he went through the ladder, his leg whipped back against the barricade. He is expected to miss the next 16 months of action. D-Von's contract is up in 10 months, and no word yet, if the WWE plan to bring him back after this devastating injury.

- Sabu to WWE talks have stalled. Sabu reportedly wanted to up the risk level, and perform more dangerous stunts, WWE stands by there decisions to let any televised shows get more risky.

Funaki © vs. Spike Dudley vs. Paul London - For The WWE Cruiserweight Title

There is a reason why this match was the opening match, just to make sure everyone was awake. Funaki the fighting champion that he is, puts the title on the line yet again. In this match Paul London gave Funaki a run for his title, while Spike was just working for bumps. This was a very fluid wrestling match, gets good reports from wrestling reviewers. Ending: Spike Dudley goes for a Dudley dog, but is thrown over the top turnbuckle to the outside. Paul London runs against the rope and goes for a clothesline, Funaki ducks, then gets London on the rebound with a kick to the teeth, then the Rising Son to retain the title.

Winner - Funaki (Retains WWE Cruiserweight Title)

Booker looked at the hat, and then looked at the crowd, they erupt. Booker grabs the hat, and rubs back to the ring.

Bubba Ray Dudley vs. Rey Mysterio Jr.

Bubba Ray Dudley is still looking for revenge for his injured brother, and lats week he demolished RVD, this week he gets Rey Mysterio jr. This match started in the mist of a 3 team brawl, minus Eddie G., so Rey Rey was already half out of it. Bubba is already beatng on Rey before the bell on the outside,s o he whips him into the ring post, affecting the shoulder on Mysterio again. Bubba slowly picks him up and drops him throat firts on the fan barricade, then slams him over the barricade, to the crowds boo's. Bubba then lays and elbow to the neck of Rey Mysterio, as they are in the crowd fighting. Rey Rey somehow musters up enough energy, and hits Bubba Ray with a lowblow, Rey then takes off running in a circle, and Bubba has no idea where he went, Rey has hid, Bubba gets back in the ring, looking for Rey, but he cant find him. Rey runs in from the entrance sidelines, while Bubba Ray still cannot seem to find him. Rey jumps to the top rope, and jumps off at Bubba, Bubba however catches a right jab to the jaw of Rey, which send a Mysterio tooth flying. 1....2.... kick out.

John Bradshaw Layfield © vs. Kurt Angle vs. Eddie Guerrero - WWE World Title on the line.

JBL made his way to the ring looking angry. Kurt Angle made his way to the ring focused. Eddie Guerrero made his way to the ring frustrated. The Makings for a good match, right? lets hope. JBL's usual "cowering away from competition" was not so today, as he went right after Kurt Angle, and in the beginning of the match absolutely took control. He pounded away at Eddie and tossed Kurt to the outside. So its just JBL & Eddie in the ring, Eddie leap frogs JBL, but JBL comes back with the clothesline from hell, but the pin is broken up by the recovering Kurt Angle from the outside, by pulling on JBL's leg. JBL swing, blockd by Kurt, Kurt lands about 5 punchs, and whips JBL into the barricade, where he begins throwing punches. Eddie G. has recovered in the ring, and jumps off the top rope to the outside, aiming for Kurt & JBL, Kurt backs away, letting Eddie connect with JBL, JBL then goes flipping over the barricade, where he lays. Eddie grabs at his thigh, as he must have hurt it on the jump. Kurt takes this time to play the crowd, he then grabs Eddie, and smashes his knee over the barricade, and eventually throws him back into the ring, where he plays the crowd a bit more, meanwhile JBL begins to climb over the barricade. Kurt delivers 3 consecutive german suplex's to Eddie, then prepares to lock in the angle lock. JBL climbs into the ring, behind Angle, who has just locked the Angle lock in, JBL runs against the ropes, and attempts a clothesline from hell, Kurt releases the Angle Lock and ducks the clothesline, and Kurt attempts a clothesline of his own, JBL & Kurt clothesline each other, knocking each other out. After a minute of laying out, the crowd began to cheer "Eddie....Eddie....Eddie" Eddie picks himself up, and manages to get to the turnbuckle, with his knee still bothering him. He plays the crowd before leaping, he does the frog splash on Kurt Angle, who gets pinnned, 1.....2.....JBL broke up the count by barely pulling Eddie off by his boot. Eddie & JBL reach their feet at the same time, and they exchange punches, until Eddie & JBL punch each other extremely hard, both tilt back, Eddie tried to balance himself, while JBL tilts back into Angle, who rolls him up 1.....2.......... JBL powers out, and launches himself forward, to the staggering Eddie Guerrero, CLOTHESLINE OF HELL! to Eddie 1.....2..... Kurt Angle pulls JBL off Eddie and all of the sudden Kurt is energized, and locks in the Angle Lock. JBL almost taps out, but Eddie drop kicks Kurt, then tosses him to the outside, Eddie catches his breathe, then when he turns around JBL catches him with a low-blow, then another clothesline from hell!, 1.....2......3!

Whats That All About?

Following the excitement of the main event, we see JBL proudly holding his title, while the ref raises his hand, all of the sudden, the entire arena goes black......fans that were leaving all of the sudden come back to their seats. A video begins to play, but it is so dark & black no one can make it out...all of the sudden these words are spoken...

Never....Never.....Now.....Im Here.......

A dark shadow figure is shown on the titan-tron, as the lights continue to flicker on and off, then the lights go out completely. The Titan Tron then completely turns white, as black lighting strike.

When the lights rise again, we see JBL standing in the ring shocked, but eventually he cracks a smile, and begins to laugh, as he heads to the back.
