Smackdown Spoilers

2-19-2008 San Diego, CA

Dark match: McCool beat Victoria with a very nice looking Angel's Wings.

ECW notes: After their match CM Punk got on the mat and bowed to Flair. Flair told him to get up and they hugged. Flair got a good reception walking up the ramp to the back.

Edge comes out for a promo with his two buddies. He basically says that he, unlike most the crowd full of people who are scared of failing, is an opportunist. He said he's going to use the opportunity at Wrestlemania to end Undertaker's streak. Very good promo, Edge is awesome. Lights go out. Lights come back on and Undertaker has his hand around Edge's throat. The lackeys attack Taker, and they get beat up for it but Edge escapes.

Shelton Benjamin beat Jimmy Wang Yang in a MITB Qualifying match with his jumping faceplant finisher. Yang looked good and got the crowd into the match a bit near the end.

Teddy runs into Maryse backstage and she asks for a private meeting.

Jesse and Festus beat Deuce and Domino with a Festus aided top rope splash. The Greasers get the heat on Jesse by using Cherry as a shield on the outside and jump kicking him in the face. He was bleeding from the nose, so it looks like it was a real stiff kick.

Big Daddy V beat Shannon Moore via the fat elbow. Went too long for a squash match.

Batista beat MVP after 3 spinebusters and a Batista bomb. MVP was selling his back from the Chamber match, so Dave thought it would be fun to give him three spinebusters. During the match MVP got the heat on Dave by working over his head (front face locks) after MVP's big boot on the outside.

Kane pinned Khali when Khali had the headsqueeze on Kane and Kane pushed off the turnbuckle with his legs to land on top of Khali in a pinning position. (Think Hart v Piper but not a full roll through.) Afterward Khali kept the hold on and released because he thought he had won. Match was bad.

Chuck beat Mac Jackson (enhancement guy) with his finisher (has guy on his shoulder into RKO-like move). Quick and brutal squash, Chuck even stopped a pin one time to give more punishment.

Video with Rey coming to the ring.

Rey comes out to the ring. Rey is GOD in San Diego. Rey says his bicep is completely torn and has to get surgery on it tomorrow. Says he's missing Wrestlemania. Vicky interrupts. SO MUCH HEAT for Vicky just coming out. I've never heard so many 12 year old girls and boys cussing out someone in Spanish than I did when Vicky came out. They replay Rey giving her the silla from last week. Vickys says she thinks Rey did it on purpose and wants to hurt Rey now, so Rey must perform tonight against Chavo! Match goes along and Rey hits the 619, but can't do the springboard because his bicep hurts too much. Chavo takes over with 3 Amigos and goes up for frog splash. He misses and Rey rolls up Chavo for the pin.

Vicky tells Rey to stop celebrating and then tells him she's got something else to hurt him. Big Show comes out to beat Rey down, crush him in the corner, and step over his injured arm. Show then holds Rey up for a LONG chokeslam and hits it. Show gets a mic and simply states that this is what Mayweather has coming to him at Wrestlemania.

Dark Main Event: Edge, Curt, and Zack vs Kane, Taker and Batista. Edge avoided Taker for the majority of the match, tagging in the other two quickly. End comes when Undertaker throw Curt and Zack at Batista and Kane for respective spinebuster and chokeslam and then Taker gives Edge the tombstone for the pin.

Smackdown Taping on February 19, 2008 in San Diego.

In a dark match before ECW... Michelle McCool beat Victoria

Smackdown!!! for this Friday.

Edge accompanied by Ryder and Hawkins opened the show. Edge said he set Rey up for the kill at No-Way Out and came through. Edge moved on to the Undertaker and said he would end the 15-0 streak this year. The lights went out and the Undertaker appeared in the middle of the ring and fought with all three of them. As they exited the ring he posed in the ring and pointed to Wrestlemania logo.

Kelly Kelly (I think) wanted to talk to Teddy Long in private.

Jesse and Festus beat Deuce and Domino

MVP cut a promo about Batista beating him last week being a fluke. I think this promo only aired in the arena.

Batista beat MVP

Former boxing champion Erik "Terrible" Morales was shown ringside.

Kane beat The Great Khali
- Khali applied the nerve hold but Kane knocked him down while he still had the hold on and pinned him. Khali thought he won.

Chuck Palumbo beat Matt Jackson

Rey Mysterio came out to talk about his future. Said he visited the doctors and that his bicep was completely torn and needed to have surgery this weekend. He said he'd have to miss Wrestlemania. He was thankful he at least was in San Diego for his last apperance. Vicky Guerrero's music hit and she came out to tell Rey she didnt care about his pain and was going to make him pay for injuring her last week. She said he would wrestle tonight and called for a referee. Then told him he'd face her blood... Chavo Guerrero.

Rey Mysterio beat Chavo Guerrero
- They had a pretty good match considering Rey's injury. He did most of his moves, even hitting a 619.
Afterwards Vicky said she wasnt done hurting him... Big Show came out and went after Rey. He crushed him in the corner, manhandled him and stepped on his injured arm and chokeslammed him to end the show to a chorus of boos. He seem to inhale the anger, and said that Mayweather would suffer an even worst fate.

After the end of Smackdown... Edge, Ryder and Hawkins came out laughing because their advertised 6 man main event match against Mysterio, Undertaker and Batista was going to be a handicap match with Rey injured.
Then Kane's music hit and it was again a 6-man tag.

Undertaker, Kane and Batista defeated Edge, Ryder and Hawkins in about 10 minutes.
- Good match and they sent the fans home happy after Rey Jr. got murdered by the Big Show. Edge was trying to dodge Taker most of the match. On the marquee outside the sports arena they were advertising the new match already.

They come back for One Night Stand on June 1st. The arena was packed tonight. It looked like a legit sellout.

The crowed popped big time for Ric Flair all night.
