• Official WWE Smackdown Preview for 5/27/04:
  
  Since arriving on the SmackDown! scene, the "French Phenom" Rene Dupree has been involved in a bitter rivalry with United States Champion John Cena. As a result, Dupree has been awarded several shots at the U.S. Championship. However, the Frenchman has yet to capitalize on them. Most recently, Dupree defeated Cena via count out, which does not entitle him to claim the red, white and blue belt. This week, however, count outs will be nearly impossible, as the young Rene Dupree challenges John Cena for the United States Championship under Lumberjack Match rules.
  
  A match of this type requires many SmackDown! Superstars to be ringside. Should one of the competitors find himself on the outside of the ring, it is the surrounding Superstars' job to throw him back in. Don't be surprised if Dupree and Cena aren't the only ones battling on Thursday night. When a large number of SmackDown! Superstars occupy such a small area of space, emotions usually tend to overflow. Look for this one to be wild.
  
  Also, the condition of Eddie Guerrero has been on the mind of all his faithful fans. The last time we saw the WWE Champion, he had collapsed in the middle of the ring on SmackDown! What is Guerrero's condition? Will be able to recover from the physical toll his body has paid as of late? Find out this week on SmackDown! on UPN at 8/7 CT.
