No time listed? I guess Ashley will never realize her dream of facing Batista for the World Heavyweight Title at Royal Rumble.

Yeah that's confusing, not so much the Londrick one but Tatanka vs. Yang going to a draw.

It looks like Kennedy might be Batista's next whipping boy. Their little feud was fine, but they shouldn't push Kennedy at Batista yet if they are set on pushing him hard in the future. You know he wont take the title from Batista, so why blow his momentum now? It's too soon to ruin him already.
In all seriousness, I don't think a main event run would seriously ruin him, but I do think they are rushing him to the main event just to have a throw away program before Wrestlemania.

I guess they REALLY don't want to push Tatanka, even in implication, which explains why his war on white people has had him so far fighting a black guy and an asian redneck. As far as next week is concerned, I hope the four remaining matches don't have any of the 4 listed against each other, otherwise it destroys any suspense if it comes down to being MVP vs. Undertaker and Matt Hardy vs. Finlay

I think the draw would be because they called the match when they didn't beat the SD! Sprint time...
Kane beat Chavo in like... 7:53, then Londrick fought, reached 7:53 with no fall, so the match ended... then Bookah beat Helms in 6 min, and Tatanka and Yang fought to 6 and no fall happened...

OH, okay. I wasn't aware that was the concept of the night. Cool, then.

Though it kinda sucks that next week, none of the three remaining beat the clock matches will go past 5:07 (why have 5 on one week and 3 the next, also...)

Holy weird booking, Batman.
Helms vs. Booker? Londrick vs...each other?
What's with heel vs. heel and face vs. face?

Sounds like a good show, the draws interest me as WWE rarely does them.

This sounded like a really stupid idea when it was announced, but i'm actually quite liking the sound of it.
Plus by giving themselves ony ive odd minutes for the remianing matches it gives them time to build some other Smackdown matches for the Rumble - hopefully something with the tag titles (i like Londrick and hope they don't split, but i want the titles on the Bluebloods)
