WWE Friday Night SmackDown Report for November 6th, 2009

We are live on tape from Providence, Rhode Island and your announcers are Matt ‘Get Well JR’ Striker and Todd ‘Dunkin Donuts’ Grisham.

Undertaker’s music plays and he comes to the ring. Taker says that it seems like an eternity ago that the demons of hell unleashed a creature so powerful that the mention of his very name would send shivers down the spine of those who face him. At the Survivor Series, the Undertaker was born and all who have opposed him have perished at his feet. Year after year, they still come for this and he shows the title belt. He says they come to be World Champion. This is the holy grail for all who step foot in this ring. The Big Show betrayed an entire team for an opportunity to become World Champion. What he won was the opportunity to be terminated by the hand of the Dead Man. He turns his attention to Chris Jericho. He says that there are few things that bring joy to his dark heart. One is to fight alongside his brother Kane. The second thing is fighting against his brother Kane. Last week, Chris Jericho took that opportunity away from him so at Survivor Series, Chris Jericho’s fate, his health, and his soul will be his.

Chris Jericho’s music plays and he comes out to discuss a few things with his opponent at Survivor Series. Finally after ten years, what the WWE Universe has been waiting for happens. The two biggest stars in the WWE are face to face. The best in the world and the phenom. Jericho talks about the definition of phenomenon and wonders if the definition describes himself more than Taker. Jericho says that he is the true phenom of the WWE. He says that he is exceptionally talent and is the best at what he does. He says that he is the only one brave and bold enough to stand up for what he stands for. He says that Taker has been brainwashing the sycophants. Jericho tells Taker that he is not a dead man, but he is just a man. Just like Kane, John Cena, or Big Show. Those are men he has beaten in the last ten days. Jericho says that he can beat anyone he chooses at this time. He says that he will beat Taker at Survivor Series to become a six time champion. Jericho says that Taker does not intimidate him. The smoke and gong do not send shivers down his spine. He says that Taker is just a man and there is no man on the planet that he is not afraid of. He is not afraid of Taker. He says that he is the new phenom because he is the best at what he does.

Taker decides to respond by grabbing Jericho’s jacket. Jericho with punches to Taker but Taker with a big boot and Jericho goes to the floor.
