What? Today? Oh, all right.
It's the day before America's birthday, and WWE celebrates by putting away the hairdryer and bringing back a WCW staple for a live SmackDown from Corpus Christi, TX. Hopefully the crowd will be just as live as the television broadcast.
Tonight's main event will see 20 of WWE's best and brightest partake in an old-fashioned battle royal, including major champions CM Punk and Sheamus, No. 1 contenders Daniel Bryan and Alberto Del Rio and even John Cena. What kind of chaos will ensue with all these combustible elements in one ring? How the hell will they get Big Show over the top rope? And how will WWE's newest poster girl AJ figure into this?
Also confirmed for tonight, a Teddy Long special that pits Antonio Cesaro and Aksana against The Great Khali and Divas Champion Layla. The irony of a tag match featuring no Americans notwithstanding, this is seen by many as revenge by Long for weeks of his former flame flaunting her new beau right in front of him. Will his will be done? Or will the (very) European lovers overcome the odds?
Money In The Bank is just under 2 weeks away, yet the field has still to be completed for the World Heavyweight Championship contract match. More qualifiers are expected to be held tonight, so who will join Christian, Santino Marella, Tyson Kidd, Tensai and Damien Sandow in the famed ladder match? And how will Cody Rhodes figure into proceedings now that he has lodged an official protest?
All that, plus the latest round of The Jobbers Gong Show starring Ryback, tonight on a live SmackDown!

Apparently the winner of the battle royal gets to be SmackDown GM next week.

Geez, they're in Corpus Christi again? Last time they were there, the dead crowd sucked out a lot of enjoyment from the show.

Apparently the winner of the battle royal gets to be SmackDown GM next week. I want that to be the most ridiculous person possible, who abuses his powers despite being a face. Like Zack Ryder wins and he books himself into the MITB match, then gives him a shot at every title in the WWE with a ton of ridiculous clauses to get infinite rematches and then acts like "OH C'MON BRO, HOW COULD I NOT DO IT?" Plus he then sets everybody's entrance music to Backstreet Boys or something. Alternatively Kane wins and...yes. Yes. |

Ryder's understanding of title shots is very similar to his understanding of how to change tires. |
