Undertaker vs. Great Khali & Melina v. Jillian Hall have been added to the card (I still think it will continue the trend of being the best Smackdown brand ppv of the year) You might have a point there, Great American Bash is destined to suck (yes I don't know the card, but for the past 2 years it has) and No Mercy is ok usually, and Armageddon is usually awful as well. To be fair, Armageddon 2002 and 2005 were solid events. 2004's only reddeeming quality was the 4-way, and I don't even remember 2003's.

I'll give you that, as for Armageddon PPV's, the one I didn't like out of those was 04 and 03 (mainly cause I wanted Kane to win and Trips came in the back door to get the title again).

It seems like it has potential to be decent, but so far it just seems like week #35 episode of Smackdown, just another Smackdown weekly show. Hopefully there'll be better matches added, and MNM will be on there.

This card looks pretty damn bad so far...
Undertaker vs. Khali Definition of boring. Nobody will be able to carry Khali to a decent match, not even Taker. Add that to the fact that neither man can sell.
Melina vs. Jillian A diva match...nuff said.
Booker T vs. Lashley or Finlay This one may be bearable...we'll have to see.
MNM vs. Londricks The one match on the card that looks like it may be good.
JBL vs. Mysterio Ugh. JBL as WHC or Mysterio? It's kinda like choosing to be kicked in the face or the balls. It will be the usual big man vs. Mysterio match.

I know I'm not ordering it, and I bet Rey will win to hype up this "underdog" deal, and he'll probably lose his title at the GAB in July.

Has anyone else noticed the theme song for this ppv is that Killwswitch Engage song Orton had for a week?

I hope that means they bring Orton back. They won't, but it'd be nice to have an actual title picture on Smackdown.

I dunno if Orton is going to be in the title picture when he gets back, maybe he'll have a side feud first, or if WWE is confident in him, he could beat whomever the champion is at the time.
I definitely see Rey retaining the title over JBL, somehow, I don't think JBL will get pinned, but Rey will retain it.

Awesome! MNM may retain, but I'll so flip out if Kendrick and London win. I just wish they'd go back to their old attire, I hate their current one.

After reading the Smackdown Spoilers, I'm not really that hopeful on Judgment Day at least the main event anyways.

For some reason, I'm really pumped for this one, probably just on the grounds of the tag match. The rest of the card looks bearable-good as well. Anyway...
JBL-Mysterio: might be enjoyable. We all know that Mysterio The Jobber World Champion is a stupid idea. Mysterio The Credible World Champion would be fun, and it might as well start here. I wish they'd defend the US Title at a PPV though. What is this, the Big Show reign?
Undertaker-Khali: will be so bad Big Show and Kane will be calling it Worst Match Of The Year. However, I might enjoy watching it with mates just to slaughter the low quality of the clash (which will probably have a lame non-finish to boot).
MNM-Hooliganz: will be great.
Melina-Jillian: Well, from all reports this is the equivalent/equal of Trish-Mickie in terms of feminine workrate. I'd love to see Jillian 450-Splash Melina, not least because we could always do with building more female wrestlers so that Mishie and Beth don't get bored.
Cruiserweight Title: I think this is a 1-on-1, for once. And it should be decent.
Booker T-Lashley or Finlay: I can't imagine a heel v heel KOTR battle, and I can't imagine anyone other than Lashley winning. BT v BL should be alright though.

I can't explain it but I'm kind of positive about this ppv as well. I think the tag title match might end up being the longest match on the card. I don't see Angle-Henry, Taker-Khali, or Booker-Lashley going for a long time. And I don't think Rey-JBL will be a 20 minute match either.

You know this may sound crazy, but I think Mysterio will retain at Judgement Day if just for two reasons.
-JBL has the US title and I can't see them vacating it and making another tournament so soon after the KOTR.
-Mysterio has been booked so horribly, and made to be made so inept, that even I can't believe WWE would job Rey after all of that. I could be foolishly optimisic of course.
