He says next week will be the biggest debut, The Miz will have his first match next week, Hoorah! (Please be with The Undertaker! Please be with The Undertaker so he can kick his a**. Like everyone predicted the Diva Search runner ups got contracts. Here's the ones who did so far. Milena Roucka, Rebecca DiPietro, Amy Zidian, and Maryse Oulette. So if anyone of them were your favorites then I'm sure you're happy but I'm still not until J.T. Tinney is hired.)

Vicky Guerrero comes down to the ring using Eddie's old music. She says she loves this music but it's the last time you will hear it. She says it's time to move on and she personally wants to apologize to the fans. They kinda boo her. She has Rey come out. Rey Mysterio's music hits and he makes his way out to the ring. Vicky deeply says sorry and he accepts and they hug. She then has Chavo come out. Chavo Guerrero's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring.

Chavo goes to get a chair but Vicky blocks him from Rey. Chavo drops it but picks it back up and Vicky takes it away from him and nails Rey with it! The force of the chair made her lose her own balance when she hit him with it. Vicky and Chavo embrace with a hug in the ring and go to the back as Rey is down suffering in the ring. (I guess everyone needs a paycheck so I guess Vicky's earning to get her's in this contrived storyline. Let Eddie rest in Peace WWE!)

Winner: Kristal Marshall

Rating: * (Wow Kristal has really improved. That proves that the runner ups to Diva Search like Kristal and especially Candice Michelle really learn and improve alot in a short period of time. Jillian is really good and needs to be moved over to the Raw roster.)

Sylvan misses Vito and goes shoulder first into the ring post and Vito nails a big DDT and applies his submission with Sylvan's face in his crotch and Sylvan taps.

Winner: Vito by submission

Rating: 3/4 * (I'm rating this match the same as their last match about two or three weeks ago. It was about the exact same, nothing new.)

MVP is shown laughing at Vito. Vito says he's calling MVP into this ring. MVP gets on the ring apron and asks Vito if he really wants him to get in the ring. MVP says he has a phone call and answers it and says it's his agent. He says his agent won't let him because no contract means no contact and MVP walks off with his ladies in arm.

Finlay brings out the Little Bastard and he jumps on Lashley on the outside and then attacks Cole causing him to fall out of his seat! Lashley counters Booker and nails a delayed vertical suplex and covers but this time Finlay breaks it up. Lashley then makes the hot tag to Batista. Batista sideslams Booker and back body drops Regal. Batista then jackhammers Finlay. Sharmell gives Booker the sector stick but Batista counters and nails a huge spinebuster to Booker for the win.

Winners: Batista and Bobby Lashley

Rating: * 1/2 (Ok main event but not very long and the beatdown to Lashley was about a minute before he made the hot tag to Batista. It really needed some more time.)

Overall this weeks Smackdown didn't have a match over * 3/4 and that's disapointing to say the least. Smackdown is making stars out of Mr. Kennedy, Terkay, Kristal Marshall, the tag division, Vito, even MVP is being made special. The Vicky/Rey/Chavo storyline is just pointless and they really should have gone with Rey/Chavo teaming up and winning the tag belts to further the memory of Eddie not disgracing it with this distasteful storyline.

Overall Rating: 5.5

Have a good weekend everyone!
