R U READY TO DOWN SOME SMACK??? Layin' the SmackDown 500 times over

Matt and Adam take the brand extension very seriously. They each only identify with one brand and actively follow it. Matt bleeds Raw red and Adam has Smackdown blue coursing through his veins. Being soldiers in the ongoing war for brand supremacy has charged both of them up enough to provide handy recaps of the previous week's show. That way, no new viewers will feel lost. Thus, every Monday and Friday, we here at LOL, Wresslin' will offer you a refresher. Hey, it's the least we can do.

Smackdown celebrated its 500th episode last week by not doing anything special. Hardly any retrospectives, just more of that steady, dependable Smackdown action. And by that I mean, tons of Raw guys infiltrating our Friday night Oasis.

First off, Shawn Michaels is preparing for his big Wrestelmania match against the Undertaker. How did he plan to do this pray tell? By taking on the Undertaker's brother Kane! Because obviously taking on the incompetent brother of someone who can never beat his older brother is a valuable learning method.


Anyway, the Heartbreak Kid broke the hurt of the Big Emo by doing his best Machoman impression.

Dig it!

In response to this, the Undertaker took on HBK's old employer (and former Smackdown color man), John "Bradshaw" Layfield. He's also apprently the Intercontinental champion.

He's one IC title reign behind Santino.

Anyway, JBL is a smart man, so he put up a bit more of a fight then Kane. Unfortunatly, he was way too fat.

Too much of that sugary juice he peddles. That's his problem

Yea, so guess who won?

OOOO...insiderish...

Jeff Hardy went back to normal by acting all weird again.

Maybe Big Bossman killed his dog....

In preparation for his big, eXXXtreme rules match at Wrestlemania he decided to take on the hardcore icon himself, The Brian Kendrick (wait, what?)! Of course don't discount Kendrick's black man servant, Ezekial Jackson. And it's no rules! So he could bring a gun or something to the ring!


Yup, so that happened.

Also, one can only assume that the sizable donation to the Montal Vontavious Porter Orphanage for Sick Kids is the main cataylst for MVP's recent winning streak. In fact, he has won so much he even got a US title match against the champ, The Gold Standard, Shelton Benjamin! And he even held his own in the match.

Looks like Smackdown has their own Randy Orton...

And beyond holding his own, he...won!? He won!?



Oh, and HHH beat Vlad Kozlov and Edge inadverdantly speared his wife when Big Show was bragging about his affair. Happy 500th!

Well that sucked. Maybe tonight will be better. Tune in MyNetwork TV at 8/7c!
