Looks like a good show.
Thanks to RajahWWF.com for the following report:
- They show clips of Dawn Marie and Torrie Wilson from last week with Dawn inviting Torrie to her hotel room and Torrie showing up.
- They announce that Kurt Angle and Edge will team up to take on Big Show and Albert tonight while Scott Steiner will be present to sign his contract.
- B2 def. Rikishi. Chimmel messed up the introduction saying "John Cena accompanied by B2" so they re-do it. B2 controls most of the match. Rikishi tried for the Stinkface, but B2 low blowed him. Rikishi gets nailed in the head by a chain and is knocked unconscious for the pin.
- Backstage, Torrie Wilson talks to a woman and it is revealed that Dawn Marie has been spreading some rumors about what happened between the two last week in the hotel room. Torrie, upset, excuses herself and leaves. Tazz says that he's heard the rumors and they're hot.
- Michael Cole and Tazz talk about a recent Brock Lesnar autograph signing and how someone "big" asked Brock for his autograph. They say they will tell us after the commercial break, including footage...
- We come back and see footage of Lesnar's signing. Angle is in line to get an autograph. Brock asks him what he wants and Kurt says he'd like to talk with him. Kurt announces that Brock will take a 5-minute break. Angle says that they can help each other - he can get his suspension lifted and he can help him beat Big Show by being in his corner. Brock asks Kurt if he can't beat Show and Angle responds by saying even Brock couldn't beat Show with Paul Heyman in his corner. But if he agrees to be in his corner, he will be face to face with the men who screwed him. As long as Big Show is champion, Brock can't get a rematch but Kurt says if he wins, he'll give him the first shot. They both agree that they have thought about facing each other in a match and Kurt says Angle vs. Lesnar would be the greatest match in WWE history. If Brock will help him, he will return the favor. Brock responds by saying that if Angle can get his suspension lifted, he will consider it.
- Backstage, Paul Heyman talks to Albert and Show and says that tonight A-Train (Albert's new name) and Big Show and will go through Edge and Angle on their way to greatness. Josh Matthews interrupts and wants his thoughts on what just happened. Heyman has no idea what he's talking about and Matthews fills them in on the potential Angle-Lesnar tandem. Show says if these rumors are true, Heyman better fix them. Heyman tells Show to get his title and they'll go talk to Stephanie right now. This is what he's paid for.
- Backstage, Heyman meets Stephanie but Steph tells him to get out because she's busy with a private conversation. Heyman is kicked out but assures Show that he has everything under control.
- Demott cuts an interview and basically says he enjoys his work and likes beating people up.
- Bill DeMott def. Shannon Moore. Before the match, DeMott cuts another promo bashing the hometown fans which won't be shown on TV. They make a point during the commentary to push DeMott as a bully and an unhappy man. DeMott controls the whole match and wins easily.
- Backstage, Heyman finally gets back into Steph's office. Stephanie says that she's been busy with Scott Steiner and his signing. Heyman cuts to the chase and says that he's here to clarify a rumor about her reinstating Brock Lesnar. Stephanie says she has been considering it because Brock has kept within the terms of his suspension. Heyman asks her if she's out of her mind. Steph says she's aware of what Brock is capable of but she's the decision maker. Lesnar makes Smackdown! money and when he's not on, they lose money. She talked with Angle and her decision has been made - as of Armageddon, Brock Lesnar's suspension is lifted! Show gets angry and Steph dismisses them from her office.
- Eddie & Chavo Guerrero def. Chris Benoit & Billy Kidman to retain their tag team titles.
- I might have missed some stuff in here due to a technical difficulty, including anything of importance that happened in the last match. Again, if anyone can fill in with anything I missed, please send it in.
- Dawn Marie Interview. Before the interview, Torrie confronted Dawn and asked her to call off the marriage like she promised. Anyway, Dawn tells Al Wilson that the rumors he's heard are true, she did spend the night with Torrie. But everytime she looked into Torrie's eyes and everytime she kissed her, she felt as if she was looking into Al's eyes and kissing Al's lips. Torrie was her only connection to Al. Before she makes her statement, she needs to know how he feels about her. Al says that he still wants to marry Dawn. Dawn is thrilled and says she too wants to get married on Smackdown!. Torrie comes running down and attacks Dawn Marie. Al tries to get in the way but Torrie lets him have it too. Dawn takes a mic and says that on Sunday at Armageddon, she will show the whole world how much Torrie enjoyed her time in the hotel room, she will show the world what happened! Everyone will see exactly the type of person she is - a sexual predator.
- Crash def. Jamie Noble by DQ. Throughout the match, Cole and Tazz harp about Noble's losing streak and speculate about the identity of Noble's cousin, Nunzio. During the match, Nunzio does indeed show up and proceeds to beat the Hell out of Crash. Nidia doesn't seem too happy to see Nunzio though.
- Scott Steiner arrives. Stephanie is told that he just arrived and asks to pass on a message to him: she'll be waiting in the ring with his exclusive Smackdown! contract.
- This Saturday on Confidential: The Rock speaks on his return to WWE.
- Scott Steiner Interview. Steiner says that last week, Stephanie made some suggestive promises. They got into his limo and the cameras stopped rolling and nobody knows what happened next. What happened next was nothing. Steiner says that she broke all her promises to the Big Bad Booty Daddy but he can see in her eyes, her needs and wants. She wants to experience what it is like to be with a real man, she wants him - the Freakzilla. Stephanie interrupts and says that this isn't the time and place to get into promises. She's sorry he misunderstood but what she's offering is a signing bonus. Steiner grabs Stephanie and says let's make our own home movie. Stephanie says she has higher standards and morals than his freaks. She is first class and is all business. She is offering him an exclusive Smackdown! contract but chants of "slut" drown her out. Steiner says she doesn't like her business. If he can't trust her in his personal life, how can he trust her in his career. She's nothing but a tease and has probably lied to many men in her life. He's not going to make this decision on his own so he asks the freaks out there if he can trust Stephanie. He says the freaks say Hell no. Smackdown! is a great show and he'd love to be on it, but Stephanie is the reason he's not signing. He ends with: "Big Poppa Pump is your hookup ON RAW; Holla if you hear me!". Cole and Tazz finally realize that he's signing with Raw and Steiner leaves with Stephanie begging him to come back. Eric Bischoff pops in and leaves with Steiner.
- They show clips of A-Train injuring Rey Mysterio last week. We also speak to the doctor who performed Mysterio's knee surgery and he says that the injury might be "career threatening". Mysterio says it's his fault it happened, but he just wants to rehab the knee and come back and take care of business.
- Edge is interviewed saying that his roller coaster ride went off the track. He talks about Albert attacking him before his match last week and how he tore his MCL. But A-Train or Albert or whatever is in for one helluva beatdown. Angle comes by and says he wants to hear everything he says. They are partners tonight but they have a history. Edge asks Angle if he has his back. Kurt responds by saying that he's confident that he'll have his back just like he's confident that Brock Lesnar will have his back at Armageddon.
- They run over the Armageddon card: Dawn Marie/Torrie Wilson footage, Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H, Trish Stratus vs. Jacqueline vs. Victoria, Edge vs. A-Train, Chris Jericho & Christian vs. Dudley Boyz vs. Booker T & Goldust vs. Lance Storm & William Regal, Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero, Kane vs. Batista, and Kurt Angle vs. The Big Show with Brock Lesnar potentially in Angle's corner.
- Big Show & A-Train def. Edge & Kurt Angle. A-Train (Albert) has brand new music to go along with his new name. Finish saw Heyman interfere and help Big Show pin Angle for the victory. A-Train beats up Angle some more after the match.
