I had a good time at my first show since 1987.
VELOCITY
(1) Vito (w/ Nunzio) won a squash.
(2) MNM won a squash.
(3) Mr. Kennedy deafeated Austin’s own Russell Simpson.
(4) Juventud Guerrera won a Cruiserweight Battle Royal for a match at No Mercy: Scotty 2 Hotty vs. Funaki vs. Brian Kendrick vs. (Austin’s own) Paul London vs. The Mexocools. Nunzio also came to ringside with Vito. This was a great match well worth checking out on the their website. It came down to Spanky, London, and Juvi. Juvi took care of Kendrick who took a pretty sweet bump in the process. Juvi finally threw Paul London over the top rope. Pretty good pop for Juvi, but I was pulling for London. This was a good, fast-paced match well worth checking out.
SMACKDOWN TAPING
(1) Booker T defeated Orlando Jordan.
(2) LOD defeated Paul Birchall & William Regal.
(3) Hardcore Holly defeated Sylvain Grenier.
(4) Bobby Lashley won another squash.
(5) Rowdy Roddy Piper deaeated Bob Orton Jr. & Randy Orton with a roll up. Pretty good match.
(6) Chris Benoit & Batista & Rey Mysterio beat JBL & Christian & Eddie Guerrero i the belated Homecoming match.
BONUS DARK MATCH
(1) Undertaker defeated Randy Orton (w/Bob Orton) via Tombstome Undertaker is just the site to see live. It is electric. This was awesome.
