SmackDown 9/16/05: Undertaker vs. Orton, Pt. 3

[#Classic Hi-Definition X]

Official preview from WWE.com:

Orton vs. Undertaker
September 16, 2005


Randy Orton and Undertaker will have the rubber match in their legendary series as SmackDown continues to change Friday nights.

After losing to Undertaker at WrestleMania 21, Orton and his Hall of Fame father Cowboy Bob Orton schemed together to defeat Undertaker at SummerSlam.

The Ortons then mocked Undertaker, claiming he was ready for retirement, even going as far as to sign a copy of Undertaker’s Tombstone DVD and auctioning it to the highest bidder on WWE.com.

Randy and Bob Orton then took the proceeds and presented a rather large check for the Undertaker “Retirement Fund.” Taker responded to their mocking by ominously setting the check on fire.
Apparently, the Legend of Undertaker isn’t quite dead yet.

Last week on WWE.com, the WWE Tag Team Championship Match between MNM and Road Warrior Animal & Heidenreich ended in controversy when Animal nailed Joey Mercury with one of the championship belts while the referee was preoccupied. This week on Friday Night SmackDown, MNM will get their rematch. Can MNM regain the WWE Tag Team Championship? Or will Animal & Heidenreich continue to rule the tag team division on SmackDown?

Also, it will be a contrast of styles when the powerful JBL takes on the speedy Rey Mysterio Friday night on SmackDown.

Don't miss SmackDown this Friday on UPN (8/7 CT).

8 minutes left til Smackdown

[kunswwfmark]

Wow, Christian actually got a title shot....



but is overshadowed by Orlando Jordan. The de-pushing continues.

[kunswwfmark]

I can dig it, Sucka.

[amsiraK]

I love Benoit like this. Whip-crack fast and unrelenting.

And Christian should get a legit shot at the US Title. I'd like it.

[Ass Dan]

Christian wins a match?!? TiVo this episode!

[kunswwfmark]

Dave Batista is a prick for laughing at that poor fat man with the Chocolate Milk all over him.

[amsiraK]

I like the byplay between Batista and Dean. This could be a good running gag if they don't overdo it.


Holla holla!

[kunswwfmark]

Man, I love Batista's music.

[kunswwfmark]

wow, this is the first I've seen of the network guy. He's really big. He looks like he could take Batista.

[Lancers]

He's a wrestler from OVW. I'm sure sooner or later he'll be wrestling.

[Libertine]

Smackdown was actually good this week. I think the UK gets it before the U.S. now. It was on at 9pm GMT over here.
