I have bad feeling Show will take Kendrick's spot. Dude, I know you're only speculating, but PLEASE don't jinx this for me. Ok I take it back ;D. Also I want Kendrick in too because it would be good for WWE and it's awesome.

lol, Smackdown sucks. It's fun and all for us, but the fact that they have to scrape for feuds by having people nobody cares about in their title picture, versus Raw which has too many? People nobody cares about? Have you read these forums before? Keep in mind that just because Kendrick is the "He's horrible, so I'll say I like him just to seem "cool and different"" boy of the week does not mean that people care about him. Many reports have shown that he gets little to no reaction live, which means (not surprisingly) the reactions are piped in. And while Benjamin has talent, and is in the middle of his 49415326rd attempt at a push, he's not exactly high on many casual fans' lists either. I know he's another IWC golden boy, but the IWC does not represent casual fans as a whole, many of which don't really give a shit about him. Basically, the SD main event is HHH, MVP, Hardy, and two people who don't matter. And I wouldn't be surprised to find out that either Benjamin and/or Kendrick lose their spot some time between now and the PPV.

Did he throw Bam Neely through a cupboard and send him into Narnia? That's an ENTIRE PPV all by itself!

Way to speak for countless people! So the ONLY reason anybody likes Kendrick is because it's a fad and not because they actually think he has talent? Right...

Ugh, Kendrick looks so out of place there. He's beat a bunch of c-list wrestlers over the last month and all of a sudden he's in the title picture? Poop. I say Big Show deserves to be in the match much more.

So the Jeff Hardy God Push is back on? So the SD main event is Triple H vs. Brian Kendrick vs. MVP vs. Shelton vs. Hardy How is this a Hardy God push? If so, Does it mean Kendrick,MVP,Shelton are getting God pushes as well?

from the spoilers on Gerweck may not air: Triple H took the mic. he talked about the championship scramble - MVP, Benjamin, Kendrick & Hardy as his opponents. Kenny Dykstra came out during Triple H's promo. Triple H gave him a pedigree, took the mic & said 'good to see you kenny.' Triple H botched his promo, re-said his lines & noted he had another shot at it since this is pre-taped. fans laughed. Triple H was at ringside on commentary. He took out Khali's manager then hit Khali with a chair to setup the finish. ahh that makes sense, the evil triple H hits khali with a chair for that drug addict to hit him with the swanton. ah yes Indian TV editing at it's finest

I say Big Show deserves to be in the match much more. Big Show is more valuable in a 1 on 1 match than as part of a 5 way title match imo. They have to save some big names to fill up the rest of the card if they're going to have these two scramble matches.

Alot of these new guys look like they are made in a factory. Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiasie and Gavin Spears all look the same. Kinda like mini-Ortons. Atleast two of the new guys are showing some progress like Bourne and Ortiz. Was it just me or did the whole rally towel things seem really contrived? Those had to be plants waving those things in just that one section.

Honestly glad to see Spears get the callup, as I've heard so much good about the guy, and he showed he can back up the hype, even though his match was short.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Why do they always have to change everyone's name the second they get the callup? If Shawn Spears can't use his real name, the wonderful gimmick I had for him is ruined. I had visions of him having the morose anger of Raven mixed with the violent unpredictability of Brian Pillman, using Ozzy's Mr. Crowley as his entrance theme, and constantly talking about his neglectful celebrity parents who put a partying lifestyle ahead of him, and left him to sleep on the streets. Of course, I wasn't expecting WWE to read this and follow my advice, but I expected something better than generic Orton-clone FCW look and a changed name.
That being said, he gave a decent promo, and didn't look too bad out there in the match.

On the scramble subject, are all the mid match changes going to be recognised? Way Adamle talked about them becoming champion it sounded like it could happen, that'd be too dumb thought right? It sounds like only the last person to have the belt at the end will "officially be recognized" as champion, meaning that everyone in-between will not be. They wouldn't be stupid enough to have the main championships have the same kind of official reigns as the Hardcore Title did.
