Report by Cameron Leigh via http://www.pwinsider.com The one dark match was quick with someone named Jordano or something getting a win (he reminded me of a Mongolian warrior or something). Velocity matches: Carlito Caribbean Cool beat an indy guy whose name I completely missed. Torrie Wilson comes out to hype Velocity. Johnny the Bull wrestled a decent match against Akio. Stamboli wins with a gorilla press into a power slam. The Bashams in blue tights over two jobbers from Emporia, Kansas (Wrestlers from Emporia, KS? Really? Oh, brother). This was pretty boring. Dupree and Suzuki had a nice match against Funaki and Shannon Moore. Faceplant on Moore (I think) and a win for the champions. There may be another match here that I am forgetting but it's late... Smackdown: The show began with Angle introducing his new team of excellence: Jindrak and Luther. He talks about how Big Show throwing him off the balcony was a huge mistake. Theodore Long interrupts and explains that the match at No Mercy between Angle and Show is 1 on 1, with anyone interfering being fired. JBL gets beat down during his backstage interview by Hardcore Holly. This sets up a non- title match later on in the evening. Tag match: Dudleys vs. Rico & Haas. Dawn Marie comes to ringside to talk with Tazz and Cole. During the match, Dawn interferes and catfights with Jackie. This causes Rico to leave the match and Haas loses. More catfighting between Jackie and Dawn. Nice. Cut to John Cena (backstage) hyping his match at No Mercy against Booker T. He said he isn't 5 times, he's 1 time, and that 1 is Booker T. Heidenreich climbs up the Smackdown Fist to read a poem while Paul Heyman and others plead for him to get down. I found this to be a little tasteless to have someone up after Owen Hart's death in Kansas City. I thought that the WWE was finished with the high-up in the air, high risk stuff. I was in attendance when Owen fell and this with Heidenriech was hard to watch. Just my personal opinion. JBL's match against Bob Holly is next. JBL gets the upperhand and pummels Holly after a few minutes of back and forth action. JBL bloodies Holly up by hitting him with the stairs. Ref calls for the bell. JBL continues to pummel Holly even after being disqualified. He then gets on the mic and tells UT that he is not scared of anyone. What's this? The lights go down (or blue) and The Undertaker appears on the Titan Tron Screen. He says that he has destroyed Gangrel, Viscera, and now Orlando. Orlando is shown hanging on the UT sign in the rafters (not unlike Austin from years back). JBL is terrified! Undertaker says that all that's left is JBL. UT goes away and JBL leaves looking frightened. Booker T vs. Paul London. As Kidman looks on from the ramp, Booker gets a quick win with his kick. After the match, Kidman comes down to stop Booker T from hitting Paul London with a chair. Kidman then hits Paul with the chair himself. Non-title Cruiser match with Spike going up against Nunzio. Johnny the Bull and D-Von and Bubba are ringside. After some cheating on the Dudley's part, Spike goes for the pin but Nunzio schoolboys him for an upset win. Good match! Main Event Time! Eddie Guerrero plus a mystery partner vs. Luther Reigns and Mark Jindrak. Guerrero calls out his friend, RVD. Decent match. RVD blows a kick off of the ropes to Luther later in the match. The ending sees Luther putting his finisher on Eddie and then Jindrak squeaking out a win from it. Angle then comes down to beat down the good guys, but RVD and Eddie are able to get the upper hand by Angle accidentally taking out his own men. The bad guys leave and Eddie and RVD celebrate. Eventually, they head out of the ring and Eddie offers RVD a ride, they exit via the Low Rider. Overall, a decent show. A lot of people were disappointed to see no Big Show, no Undertaker, no Cena, and no Rey Mysterio live! A go-home show before the PPV and none of these huge superstars? It seemed a little weird.
