The PRE-AiR John Report: WWE Smackdown 16th April 2010.

Chris Jericho Segment

We are instantly reminded that a Raw guest host made a Smackdown world championship match. Teddy Long is a terrible GM who is really stale. Yay. A good main event for once. Jericho, Edge and Swagger. This match was meant to have happened at Extreme Rules. I was correct in assuming that Long would book a triple threat match.

Match Number 1: Drew McIntyre Vs. Kane

An ok match. Kane's matches continue to remind me of the fact he's being underused. He chokeslams Hardy, In a heel-style fashion. Let's hope he turns major heel and becomes a monster! Hardy runs in and attacks Drew, Causing a DQ. Kane then attacks Hardy.

Winner: Drew McIntyre by DQ

Match Number 2: Dolph Ziggler Vs. R-Truth

We are reminded that Dolph put Josh Mathews into a sleeper. Long apparently has told Dolph to say sorry. He says sorry, But in a fashion that doesn't appear like he means it. Onto the match, R-Truth really bores me. His "What's Up?" chants are boring and so 1980s. Just get in the ring, You weirdo. Why does he have to dance around the ring? What's up with that?:shifty:. Captian Obvious tells us all that Dolph has no heart... Dolph is a great talent tbh. We need to keep him on Smackdown, Becuase Raw will kill him. The future stars are: Kofi, Dolph, Swagger, Sheamus, DiBiase imo. Dolph is on a roll!

Winner: Dolph Ziggler

Lol at Strikers comment about Lawler.

Match Number 3: Mickie James Vs. Michelle McCool

This is the longest divas match since WM. Why does Mickie have those studd things on her butt? Vickie gets a haircut :o. The end of the match consists of Layla being placed out of the ring and as Mickie turns around, Michelle connects with a big-boot to the face. She pins Mickie for the 3. Striker gets himself a hand-full of Michelle's ass as she jumps over the announce table into his arms as Beth runs out.

Winner: Michelle McCool

We get a tease that Striker and Todd could be split up.

Luke Gallows tells Darren Young he could beat him up. Punk tells them they should fight in the ring and show straightedge means we (Because im straightedge also, You know.) are better than j00 (You).

Match Number 4: Straightedge Society Vs. Rey Mysterio & Hart Dynasty

As I sit here and watch this stream, I see Miz at ringside announcing WITHOUT SHOW! This looks a good match on paper, But will it in real life?.. How can they have just Miz there, Without show. Funny note here: Miz is wearing the shirt he wore at the Blue Peter tapings that same day. Fact remains, MizShow are better than the Hart Dynasty. MizShow did retire DX. Concerning Punk, I think he does great in his role atm. Ergh.. How can Miz take credit for retiring HBK? The whole Punk/Mysterio feud is stupid and pointless, Quite frankly. WWE have never explained what being "Straightedge" means. They haven't developed the angle and this match at extreme rules is predictable. Punk's getting his head shaved. Lovely springboard splash to Punk by Rey. Mysterio hits a 619 to Punk. Smith hits a running powerslam for the three count.

Winners: Rey Mysterio, David Hart Smith & Tyson Kidd

Match Number 5: Caylen Croft Vs. JTG

This punk just needs to go away. Caylen and Trent are just trying to be like Edge&Christian. As for the JTG/Shad feud, I had completely forgotten about this whole incident until I saw shad. The whole angle is easily forgettable. JTG hits a flying wraparound clothesline to Caylen to get the 3. After the match, Shad runs in and punches JTG. Shad tells JTG that he isn't anything without Shad. Shad picks JTG up again and then he misses a splash into the corner. JTG hits the X Factor in the corner and then hits a drop kick and Shad leaves the ring and goes to the back.

Winner: JTG

Edge says that he relates to Swagger because of the way that Swagger took advantage of the situation to cash in the briefcase. He says that Swagger is in a bad position because he can lose the title without being pinned. Edge says that he is in a good position because he can pin either man to walk out of the ring with the title.

Match Number 6: Jack Swagger (C) Vs. Chris Jericho Vs. Edge [World Heavyweight Championship]

Jericho watches Swagger punch Edge and Jericho with a rollup for a near fall. Swagger with a belly-to-belly suplex and Jericho goes to the floor. Edge with an Irish whip to Swagger and Edge with a methodical walk across the ring. Swagger with a forearm to Edge and then he punches him.
