Batista-Hardy was better than their last match - it didn't drag on like that one, and was basically the match that should have been as Batista just mauled him. I loved the three spinebusters, and Striker on commentary was 
ing hilarious with all of his ridiculous statements. I'm not sure what being THE WHITE BLOOD OF SMACKDOWN is, but Matt Hardy is it. Calling the jacked-up Batista an "altered beast" is awesome both as a steroid joke and a gaming one. And stating that him just killing this dude could be a way for him to test his cardio in the most long-winded way possible before Grisham just basically said "yeah...or he just wants to kill this dude" ruled. Striker has gone so far over-the-top with the move to SD that what once worked for him on ECW now really works against him on a major show.
The Brothers of Destruction video was so goddamn great, then we got Vince announcing Vickie as the consultant to SD with her jumping around, celebrating, and going WOOP WOOP! This ruled so much - I want her to never leave the show again. Finlay-McIntyre was awesome. The video package setting it up was great, and the match was short, but didn't feel short because of how intense it was. It went maybe a few minutes, but it was all action with Finlay smashing Drew with shots until Drew got lucky, poked him in the eye, and hit the snap double arm DDT. An EYE POKE was made to seem like a huge deal and the young guy won in a cheap way that actually helped him - I loved this!
I liked the Punk bit even more. He came out and was even more preachy than usual. This time, HE BROUGHT PROPS! YES! This seemed like it was straight out of an Andy Kaufman bit with him teaching hygiene, and was just awesome. He warned of the evils of cigs, THE DRUGS, and whiskey - complete with dumping each of them into a trash can, and in the case of whiskey, making an awesome face when revealing it and holding his nose when dumping it into the trash can. Then Truth came out and dumped all that junk on him and he made even more wacky faces. This was so awesome and Truth was more over than he's ever been in WWE when he held the can over his head and teased either hitting him with it or just dumping its contents onto Punk. Nothing but win here.
The show slipped a bit here, as the IC title match was good, but very rushed. They crammed 3 falls into maybe 10 minutes and in the first three minutes, Morrison had already busted out the springboard 450 to the floor. I didn't mind Ziggler losing - he shouldn't win the belt until he's actually got momentum/is over again, and they tried to protect him by having one loss be to a flash rollup and another be definitive. Better to have that than two definitive losses in one match, and he did pin him with the Zig Zag, showing that he COULD pin him in a one-fall match if need be.
Then things slipped further as Mickie-Layla was a nothing match, and McCool farm thing was pretty stupid. The whole thing looked cheap, and I know that's what they were going for, but this looked TNA-level. Michelle shouldn't speak. Or sing. However, I approve of her dressing like a farmer's daughter. The Porky Pig homage was funny though. The whole "Mickie is a pig" thing is pretty insulting - by regular person standards, Mickie is super-hot, and by skeleton standards, Michelle is skinny.
The show rebounded a bit with Rey-Kidd, which was a pleasant surprise. Given the "Rey is facing big guys to prepare for Batista" deal they were building up, I was surprised he didn't face David Hart Smith here. I was also astonished that Striker didn't say that Rey chose Kidd as a foe to prepare for the awesome speed of Batista. Batista being on commentary and saying nothing was AWESOME. He's horrible whenever he does that, so this was great as it played into him being super-pissed and prevented him from looking like a fool behind the mic. This was short, but it was a great way to give Kidd a high-profile role and have him look good while also furthering the Batista-Rey deal as Batista cost Rey the match by saving Kidd from being hit by Rey. Very efficient stuff here.
The Jeri-Show bit backstage was a good way to build up some light-hearted tension between them while also bringing up an awesome point of Show holding tag told with both Taker and Kane - something you'd think they'd bring up earlier than TWO DAYS BEFORE THE MATCH, but at least they did it. The main event itself was really good. Taker seems to have finally gotten back on track as he's had some awesome work in TV matches for the past few weeks now - maybe it just took some time back on the road before his new hip got used to the rigors of the ring. This match went way longer than the Raw main event tag match, and had an epic BoD entrance and I liked seeing Kane back in the main event scene. Stuff like this helps him remain a big name no matter what his position on the card is, and he's in a very unique position where he can be in an opener one week and the main event the next and still have the same level of credibility in each role.
This was the best SD in a while. The show has fallen since Jeff left and Punk lost his momentum, which along with some bad booking have resulted in a feeling of it being in a lame duck period. However, they've turned the corner a bit over the past couple of weeks, and this show delivered in every major way it had to. It put over the Rey-Batista and world title matches over big-time, and made the IC title at least try to seem important again after that belt also got hurt by Rey being suspended. It hasn't really recovered yet, as Dolph lost all his momentum and Morrison just won a belt he didn't need, and even if Dolph does win it in the future, beating Morrison for it doesn't mean the same as beating a legend like Rey for it. Morrison probably would have been better placed in a tertiary position in the world title mix - kinda like the role that Show is filling in the PPV match. It would give him a shot at the main event level without having too much pressure on him.

[quote name='neocisco']So Drew McIntyre is feuding with Finlay? You could subtitle this feud Protestant vs. Catholic.

Striker would be perfect for the commentary since he was quoting the bible during one of the matches last night.
I thought the "make fun of Mickie James" segment was pretty stupid. Maybe it's Vince's way of making fun of her since she went to Nashville to start a career in country music. Atleast that is what I had read recently.

Sounds like Batista is gonna go over tomorrow night.
And I see the WWE higher ups are being classy as usual when it comes to issues with someone on the roster. Now I wonder if Mickie even knew that was gonna happen.

Why did they do the porky pig image? If it makes sense, it makes sense, I suppose. Even if, by itself, it seems like WWE embarrassing its employees to make necessary changes (see also: putting Albert in small trunks to encourage weight loss).

Yeah, but they can't do a bunch of them, and have to get approval before each indy shot.

So Shane McMahon met w/ Dana White for sure - could someone become more of a pariah to WWE than being a family member and quitting working for the company to work for the company who is now the #1 PPV company globally as well as WWE's main competition?

Just got back from the Chikara show tonight in Easton, PA. Easily the best night of live professional wrestling I've been to all year round. If anyone wants to have a fun night out, go to a Chikara show because you will be laughing your ass off in enjoyment through out the night.
Favorite moment of the night, and one of the top of the year, was when Hydra was ousted from the company in a loss to Tim Donst.
Following the loss, Lou Gehrig's "The Luckiest Man on the Face of the Earth" was piped in over the PA system and Hydra mimed along to the words of Gehrig retiring from the Yankees. The move was INSPIRED, and provoked a lot of emotion and sadness among the audience. Crowd went apeshit for the guy when the speech ended and gave him a standing ovation as he walked away from the ring to the MASH theme.
I love Chikara.

They apparently filmed the show for a DVD release - there's no way they'd do that much for the production of it (huge screen, pyro, etc.), if they didn't have plans to commercially release it somewhere.

Yeah, I got there late, but I know that the mods cleaned up the MMA thread because people were posting streams. So just a warning to everyone here, though I'm not sure any actually come into the Wrestling threads.

I found a working one but I can't post it for fear of a ban. WHo wants a pm to pass around the link?
