I can’t believe it but I am ordering One Night Stand, or as Vince called it One Last Stand. He did last Tuesday on ECW. I don’t know if I�m doing the right thing by putting $40.00 out but there are a couple of matches that I want to see, and no the Pudding match isn’t one of them. I have to admit I�m kind of excited about the show and I’m ready to give you my predictions. I want to thank you for your picks. I see most of us are on the same page so maybe this show is a little too predictable but then again you never know. Before I get into my predictions I wanted to just say that I loved Smackdown, I thought the show was outstanding, And in my opinion there wasn�t one thing that was bad, well yeah Mark Henry vs., Kane wasn�t exactly good but other than that match Smackdown was excellent. Okay, now for my One Night Stand picks.
Kane vs. Mark Henry (Lumberjack Match)
I�ll keep this one short; I would imagine that Henry will win. Again he�s getting a push and I can�t believe that a loss for him tonight would help the push. And I think we all know what a good jobber Kane is for the company, and believe me that is not an insult to Kane.
Winner: Mark Henry
Melina vs. Candice Michelle (Pudding Match)
Candice will win this one since the belt is not on the line. Trust me this won�t be much to watch. But my main concern is if they are working with chocolate or vanilla pudding.
Winner: Candice
Six-Man Tag Team Tables Match � CM Punk, Sandman, and Tommy Dreamer vs. Elijah Burke, Marcus Cor Van and Matt Striker
Did I hear Tables Match? Wow this is going to be brutal. It has to be because you have Dreamer and Sandman in here. This is a match that might be a show stealer or at least close to it. I am going with the New Breed only because The Originals won the last time. I can�t say that�s a great way to figure out a winner but it works for me well at least sometimes it does.
Winner: Cor Van, Burke and Striker
ECW World Champion Mr. McMahon vs. Bobby Lashley (Street Fight)
Did any of you happen to see the Vince McMahon, Bobby Lashley promo on ECW Tuesday night? If you didn�t you missed nothing. Vince never looked as bad as he did interacting with Lashley, and Lashley never looked as bad as he did interacting with Vince. Between a miserable script and really bad facial expressions by Lashley I think it�s time to end this feud, TONIGHT!
I am really hoping that Lashley wins and Vince moves on. Since this is a Street Fight I�m sure it will come off well.
Winner: Bobby Lashley or as Vince calls him, BobbyLashley
Randy Orton vs. RVD (Stretcher Match)
Monday night on Raw I thought the segment played out so well with RVD selling the head injury.
But Tuesday night on ECW all the good that RVD did the night before fell apart. Even though Van Dam was only out there for a few seconds, he did a pretty crappy job this time of selling more of Orton�s moves. I really was embarrassed for RVD. But tonight maybe I will forget about that performance and just watch a very good match. I really am hoping Orton and RVD can come through and give the fans something to get into. Now the rumor is that Vince is pissed that it got out that tonight would be Van Dam�s last match with WWE. So supposedly he is thinking of giving the win to Van Dam and then have Rob disappear during the week. I am going with Randy Orton for the victory. He�s on a roll and I just think another win tonight will keep building things up for Randy against Hunter when Hunter returns.
Winner: Randy Orton
World Tag Team Champions The Hardys vs. The World’s Greatest Tag Team (Ladder Match)
I have to say this will be the match of the night. And nothing will come close to it. I do not see Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas winning tonight, but I remember watching these two guys in a ladder match against Eddie Guerrero and Tajiri, and they looked brilliant in it. Jeff and Matt are the pros when it comes to this type of match and I cannot wait to watch this one.
Winners: The Hardys
WWE Champion John Cena vs. The Great Khali (Pinfalls Count Anywhere Match)
I didn�t see their match two weeks ago, and I really don�t care to see tonight�s match. Cena will win tonight, and probably F�U Khali and like the Vince and Lashley feud I hope tonight is the end of this one as well. I watched The Saturday Night Main Event last night and Khali I thought did a nice job in the match. It lasted longer than I thought it would and I guess I was surprised to see Khali go the distance and come through the way he did.
Winner: John Cena
World Heavyweight Champion Edge vs. Batista (Steel Cage Match)
Edge isn�t losing the title anytime soon. But I have to say I enjoyed the final segment on Smackdown Friday night, The Cutting Edge with Batista as Edge�s guest. I like the chemistry that I am seeing between Edge and Dave and I think this match could turn out to be a really good match. This is another match I am looking forward too.
Winner: Edge
This is the first WWE pay per view that I�ve ordered since Wrestlemania and I hope that ordering it is the right thing to do. I will give you my thoughts in Tuesday�s column with my Raw thoughts. I would like to leave you with a very special request from one of my readers. I know that I will be sending a card to this little boy and I hope that after you read the following you will too.
There is a very young man in the state that I live in named Josh Adkins. He is 8 years old and has terminal leukemia that the doctors have been unable to treat. Many people do not expect this young man to live very much longer and because of this one of the local Make A Wish foundations asked the boy what would be the one thing that he would want more then anything else in the world. It seems that the young man loves the Guinness Book of World Records and his one wish was to find some way to make it into that book. So after much debating it was decided that Josh Adkins would try to set the World Record for receiving the most Get Well cards. Every local organization has the boys address posted along with pleas from others for people to send cards so that this boy can break The World Record while he is still with us. I can imagine how many people read your articles and I also know that every time you request something in one of your articles you always get some kind of a response, so I am asking you if you would be so kind, would you please tell this boys story in your next article and post his address so that people could send him get well cards. This story has touched my heart and I know that if I can find a way to get this boys story out there that people will respond.
If you are interested his address is
Josh Adkins
