Friday Night SmackDown! 9/8/2006: For and Against

FOR: Cole and JBL standing to open the show.

FOR: The recap to set up the main event.

AGAINST: I'm not sure how the Shawn Michaels comparison works here.

FOR: JBL on the Guerreros turning on Rey: "People aske dif the tiger went crazy. No! The tiger went tiger!"

FOR: If they're going to push the angle that Rey's not himself, having him miss the springboard was a good way to do it.

AGAINST: So the point of that was...

AGAINST: Why does Chimel even bother? Seriously?

AGAINST: How do you win six NCAA titles?

AGAINST: This guy's sideburns.

FOR: Cole: "Did he wrestle through his Masters degree?"

FOR: The return of the Plunge.

AGAINST: Did Kennedy just threaten to jump to Raw?

AGAINST: Undertaker? Where did that come from?

FOR: Ashley's back!

AGAINST: Ashley's music.

FOR: Ashley seamlessly integrating herself into London and Kendrick's entrance.

FOR: JBL on Michelle: "Brother, when we start breeding, this world's gonna be better." (Mainly for the fact that he used the word 'breeding' to describe what can only be dirty monkey sex.)

AGAINST: I apologize for that image.

FOR: Ashley joining London and Kendrick's corner armdrag-tag sequence.

FOR: Stevens's different low bridge.

FOR: Kendrick running Michelle's stop sign.

FOR: The "WTF?" look Cole gives JBL.

FOR: Vito: "Very emotional."

AGAINST: Did they feel the need to get JBL all of his heat back in one night or something?

FOR: On the other hand, Cole's been on fire tonight.

KENNEDY.

AGAINST: Is Miz supposed to be a heel or a face? I don't think even he knows.

FOR: That jump-off-the-back rope-assisted neck snap he did.

FOR: JBL on paying dues, I assume: "...you get robbed in Puerto Rico like everybody else does!"

AGAINST: Helms is still messing with Matt?

AGAINST: Put down the microphone, Vickie.

FOR: The whole build to the title match: the videos, Chimel making the introductions with both men in the ring, Nick Patrick giving instructions (and asking "are there any questions?"). They did this right. The only thing missing was the Tale of the Tape.

FOR: Booker's Scissors Kick on the apron.

FOR: Now that's a plan.

AGAINST: Finlay rocking Batista's world? The hell's all this? If this holds, No Mercy's going to be exactly the opposite of what I figured it would look like.

MEH: This show.
