Teddy Long ran down the main matches. Justin Roberts told fans that they could vote for 1 - Falls Count Anywhere, 2 - Best 2-Out-Of-3 Falls, 3 - No DQ for the Jeff/Edge match. Finlay (w/Hornswoggle) beat Carlito (w/ cornrows). Carlito was far more motivated than in Augusta. Better match than last night. Difference tonight was that Carlito did not have an apple in his mouth. Great Khali beat Evan Bourne. Same as last night. Bourne had a better reaction tonight. Bourne is a tremendous talent. I hate to see him wasted. Give me the cruiserweights and a slot on ECW and I could book him better. Ken Kennedy beat Mike Knox. Another good match between the two. Pacing and psychology were great. Ken won with the Mic Check. I think Knox may be misused as he is a very intelligent and funny guy outside the ring. WWE Tag Team champions The Miz and John Morrison beat Jesse and Festus when Miz pinned Jesse after Morrison knocked him off the top rope. Another excellent match between the two. Crowd was really into Jesse & Festus. I don't understand why they are not given more of a gimmick, better merchandise and a run as tag champs. U.S. Champion Matt Hardy (with a young boy who got a trivia question correct) beat MVP and Shelton Benjamin in a triple threat match. Better than last night as Shelton seemed more motivated. Matt got the pin on MVP after the Twist of Fate. Michelle McCool and Cherry beat Victoria and Maryse. Same as last night with McCool getting the tap out from Maryse with the ankle lock. ECW Champion Mark Henry (w/ Tony Atlas) beat Tommy Dreamer with the slam and splash. Crowd was more into this tonight. Not as long and it seemed to be a better match. Jeff Hardy beat Edge in a no-DQ match. Another tremendous match from the two. Difference tonight was that they didn't brawl but over half of the arena and Jeff used a cookie sheet to hit Edge several times. Biggest Pops Biggest Heat |
