411's WWE SmackDown Report 11.06.09

Matt Hardy and R-Truth pick up surprise wins as Rey Mysterio pours his heart out about Batista, and more!



Hey yo. Lansdell is back on a Friday night for the first 2 of 5 hours of wrestling recapping. You know you envy me. Let us SmackDown!

My good grief it's the Undertaker. He's walking like someone with a metal hip and looking haggard. Seriously Dead Man, you've had an awesome career but PLEASE walk away before they have to wheel you away. He talks about how long he's been around, how they keep coming to beat him year after year but yet they keep failing, And they come because of his title. He says Big Show betrayed his entire team for a shot at the title, but he only won a shot at getting his ass whipped. He moves on to Jericho and says that there are few things that bring joy to his dark heart. One is fighting alongside his brother Kane, and the other is fighting AGAINST his brother Kane. Dat's messed up dawg. Jericho took that away from him so Jericho's soul is his. That brings out Jericho who presumably would like to keep his soul.

Jericho says that this is what the fans have wanted for 10 years: the best in the world and The Phenom. He gives us the definition of phenomenon (LL Cool J?) and says it describes him better than Taker. He tells Taker he's not a dead man, he's just a man like Kane, Cena and everyone else he's beaten in the last 10 days. Jericho says he's on a roll and can beat anyone he chooses, and at Survivor Series he's going to order a pizza. Wait, no. He's going to win the title. He claims to not be afraid of Taker's smoke and his infamous bong, err gong, and he's not afraid of Taker. He's the best at what he does. Taker reacts like Jericho called him Hadji and goozles him, and after a brief scuffle Jericho flees.

We get a recap of Batista annihilating Mysterio. You know, in case you missed the multitude of these last week.

Dolph Ziggler and The Hart Dynasty vs John Morrison and Cryme Tyme

Shad is out with a pig nose and a pair of wings. Not really, but it would have been awesome.

Morrison and Kidd to start. This won't be too fast then. Headlock takedown by Kidd, Morrison gets out and connects with a hip toss. Morrison goes to tag out as we go to break. We come back to see JTG in a Ziggler chinlock. JTG escapes and hits a jawbreaker, he dries the facebuster out of the corner but Smith pushes him off the top. Ziggler tags Smith in and he lays in some shots before tagging Kidd. Kidd hits a basement dropkick after a Smith drop toehold and then tags Smith back in. Kidd gets a backslide and Smith drops a leg, nice double team there. That gets 2. Chinlock by Smith again, he tags in Ziggler who gets a snap mare and the Mr Perfect neck snap. 2 count again. Ziggler applies the chinlock once more. JTG gets to his feet, flips over to the back and hits a modified backbreaker! Tag to Kidd, tag to Morrison! Clothesline! Back body drop! HIGH leg lariat and Morrison is selling the ribs from last week. Kidd takes advantage of that and tags in Smith, Morrison ducks a clothesline and hits the Flying Chuck. He tags in Shad and then flies outside onto Kidd while Shad lays a beating on Smith. A whip and a flying back elbow in the corner, Ziggler tags himself in and Shad is not aware! Stun Gun by Shad to Smith, he sets for the STO but ZIG ZAG! 1...2...3!

Winners: Dolph Ziggler and the Hart Dynasty via pinfall (Ziggler on Shad, Zig Zag)
Rating: **½

Commercial!



We're back and Josh is sitting down with Rey. He wants to know what state of mind he's in. Georgia? Rey says he feels like a family member walked out on him over a small thing. He says in Spanish that he considers Batista more than a friend. He says Batista decided to throw away the spirit of Eddie Guerrero. He's never seen this side of BAtista before, and know he's going to show Batista a side that he never thought existed. The frosted side?

Beth Phoenix vs Brittany Carter

Oh good, a squash. Apparently Ms Carter has an extensive background in dance. She's about to get made into the background. Beth picks her up and drives her into two different corners, hits a Samoan Clam Bake (she's not even Samoan!), then hits two pendulum backbreakers WITH ONE ARM. Dance now, bitch. She hits a shoulder backbreaker, then the Glam Slam finishes it. God she's hot.

Winner: Beth Phoenix via pinfall (Glam Slam).
Rating: DUD


Drew McIntyre vs Jimmy Wang Yang

He's alive!!! Wait, no he isn't. He does his "climb the ropes and holler" pose and McIntyre knocks him to the floor. McIntyre gets on the mic and says the party can't even get started unless he gets some competition. Yang is back in the ring and wants to go, but McIntyre is leaving! The ref calls for the bell, Drew turns around and heads back to the ring and Yang lays into him briefly before Drew just nails him with a clothesline. McIntyre mounts him, pummels him and hits the double underhook DDT for the win. Striker calls it a Kobashi DDT. I am stunned he knew that, and more stunned he was allowed to say it.

Winner: Drew McIntyre via pinfall (Kobashi DDT)
Rating: ½*

Josh is with Batista who is mad at everyone: Matt Hardy, Rey Mysterio, his barber, Kanye West...he says if it takes hurting Rey Mysterio to become champion again, that's what he'll do.

Rey walks!

Rey Mysterio vs Mike Knox

Whatever happened to Knox's push? Derailed by potbelly maybe?

Knox gets some clubbing blows right off the hop. He whips Rey in but charges into a boot. Headscissors by Rey sends Knox into 619 position! Knox retreats to the floor, ducks under a La Silla and CLEANS REY OUT with that sick crossbody. Knox throws Rey back inside and gets 2. More stiff shots by Knox and a chest-first whip get 2. Bear hug applied now, Rey forearms his way out and kicks Knox in the chest to virtually no effect. Knox charges Rey but Rey low-bridges him! Baseball slide by Rey, Knox gets back in and levels Rey with a shoulder block. Big splash! 1...2...no. Abdominal stretch by Knox, chained into a backbreaker for 2. Back to the abdominal stretch, Rey starts to fight out so Knox lifts him for a powerslam...countered to a DDT! Basement dropkick is followed by a wheelbarrow bulldog for 2. Knox gets a kneelift and tries the running powerslam again but Rey slips out the back and hits La Silla! He hits the ropes and is CREAMED by a Knox clothesline for 2. Knox charges Rey in the corner but his shoulder gets steel! Dropkick! 619! Splash! 3!

Winner: Rey Mysterio via pinfall (619/splash)
Rating: **3/4

CM Punk vs R-Truth

Oh tremendous, Scott Armstrong is the ref. Truth grabs a headlock and dances after knokcing Punk down with a shoulder. Punk with the go-behind and a headlock takedown, turned into a headscissors by Truth. Punk escapes but gets back into a corner. He comes out kicking and gets a headbutt but Truth catches him with a hip toss. Punk bails to the floor and Truth FLIES over the top and onto...his head. And Punk, but mostly he landed on his face. Ouch. Commercial.

We're back to see Punk's suplex get countered and Truth hitting a suplex of his own. Punk hits a neck snap over the top rope followed by the springboard clothesline to the back of the head. 1 count. Punk lays in some kicks to a prone Truth and hits a snap suplex for 2. Bow and arrow applied by Punk, he releases the hold and taunts the crowd before whipping Truth in. He sets for the high knee but Truth moves. Right hands by R-Truth and a pair of clotheslines. He avoids a charging Punk and hits a spin kick before running into a leg lariat by Punk for 2. The count seemed a little slow and Punk is calling the ref on it. Truth with a schoolboy! Fast count for the 3!

Winner: R-Truth via pinfall (Scott Amrstrong cheatery)
Rating: **

Punk chases Armstrong up the ramp then runs around looking for someone to discombobulate.

Mickie James is backstage where she is accosted by Michelle and Layla. Michelle talks about nobody liking her, but Mickie calls Layla "Scary Spice" and says she's going to beat Michelle's team at Survivor Series then she's going to take her title.

Josh is with Matt Hardy who is about to get beaten up. Josh wants to know why Matt got involved. Matt said that he thought that Batista just had a lapse in judgment, and he wanted to make sure Batista and Rey didn't go through what he and Jeff did. He's changed though, and he needs a reality check. He needs to fight Miz?

Matt Hardy vs Batista

My goodness, Matt is main eventing SmackDown. What next, Hogan and Bischoff working with Russo again?

Batista immediately overpowers Hardy and drives shoulders in the corner. Matt fights out and tries to take Batista down but runs into a clothesline. Whip and an elbow by Batista gets 2. Vertical suplex gets another 2. Another whip, Matt avoids the charge and tries a schoolboy but Batista holds the ropes to block and stamps on Hardy. Shoulders in the corner again followed by some stiff rights, Matt tries to fight back and climbs to the second rope but Batista yanks him down as we head to commercial.

We're back and Batista has a Steiner Recliner applied. He releases the hold and starts putting some forearms to the back of Hardy. Sccop and a slam by Batista, he covers for 2. Hard whip chest-first gets 2 more. Batista applies a sleeper with body scissors, then lays in some crossfaces while maintaining the body scissors. Bet that sucks. Hardy escapes out the back of a powerslam attempt and hits a neckbreaker, giving him some space. Hardy comes back with a flurry of shots, he ducks a wild swing and hits a dropkick to the knee. DDT! Ge drags Batista to a corner but COMPLETELY MISSES the moonsault! TWIST OF FATE! Where did that come from??? 1...2...NO! Batista gets the bottom rope. Hardy takes Batista to the middle of the ring and tries it again, but Batista reverses into a spinebuster! Shots by Batista now, and we're out to the floor! Batista has total control now, throwing Hardy into the barricade. He grabs a monitor and WAFFLES Hardy in the back! That ends it by DQ, but Big Dave is not done. He rolls Matt inside the ring and stalks him for a while, then sets for a Batista bomb before thinking better of the effort.

Winner: Matt Hardy via DQ (monitor shot)

Batista poses as we end the show!
