I'm hoping for an at least month-long feud, maybe ending in a match at a minor PPV. Should more than make up for Umaga's absence for the next few weeks in the gifted hoss area.

The thing about this match was that it looked almost like a real life fight. that's what was so cool about it. Like these two guys were just charging at each other.

Also, anyone else start noticing this Goldberg-esque aura starting to grow around Koslov? It feels like he's already beaten everyone there is to beat in Russia, so he just signed at WWE looking for a challenge.

I dont know it was good and all but unless its revealed that Kozlov has an adamantium skull or something like that i'm not digging the headbutt to the chest as a finisher.

I am totally digging it. It's cool and fresh, and pretty original in that I have not seen anything like it as a finisher. I also makes Koslov look like a badass that he can use his head a sa weapon like that, plus it is so versatile that it can be hit anytime and anywhere and can just take you by surprse like against festus. To me it's up there with the RKO as my favourite finisher in WWE right now. |

Gonna take a lil more than that to beat him. |

not really interested in a feud between these two at the moment because theyre still building up the undefeated thing and theres zero chance theyll end it for festus, once thats done with id love to see them do a program together, this was a fun little match

Kozlov and the Dalton Brothers are some of the best things on Smackdown right now. The match was cool, serves as proof that both are far out of scrub range.

I really liked this match. And while the the Headbutt from Russia is similar is awesomeness to a well sold POOOOOOUNCE, Kozlov needs a slam or suplex to finshguys with the show off his size and "style."

In developmental he apparently used a Jackhammer a lot. Called it the Russian Hammer. I have no idea why he doens't use it. |

Why not use a Sambo Suplex, they regularly play up his Sambo background and if he does it right he can make it look like a freaking sweet slam. |

It feels like he's already beaten everyone there is to beat in Russia, so he just signed at WWE looking for a challenge. Keep in mind he could still be put in matches with guys like Carlitio and Tommy Dreamer before he moves up to the likes of perhaps a small feud with Kennedy then Big Show, then perhaps things like Jeff Hardy, HHH, or Taker. |

Man, Kozlov really has came far from his "dubble dubble E" days. He really does look like he wants to (and seriously could) kill someone, and Smackdown are doing an excellent job of pushing him, giving him jobbers and now some big men to face off against. Both Kozlov and Festus did a superb job.
Oh, and I said it last week too, and I thought the same thing this week; Jr and Tazz > Jr and Foley.

I really liked the match too, and I really think it could make for a good feud.
Festus is quite over, and it's a shame there isn't an actual tag division where Jesse and him can establish themselves before an eventual singles push.
