Friday Night SmackDown! 10/20/2006: For and Against

FOR: JBL breaking out 'temerity'.

AGAINST: MVP calling for time.

AGAINST: A French maid outfit?

FOR: JBL: "It's the Flying Nun." That even cracked Cole up.

FOR: Cole: "You're in a good mood tonight."

FOR: Terkay kicking Vito in the head and acting like nothing happened.

AGAINST: Cole not being more specific and saying that The Marine had a Top 10 opening last week. (#7, I believe.)

FOR: Matt and Helms's back and forth.

FOR: Teddy's super hearing.

FOR: Matt's enjoying this news way too much.

AGAINST: Where'd they dig up Dave Taylor from?

FOR: JBL on Scotty & Funaki: "IF they were a stock I'd short 'em."

FOR: Regal and Taylor aren't exciting to watch or anything, but they're fiercely methodical and effective.

FOR: Regal letting Scotty tag in before kneeing him in the head.

FOR: A floatover double underhook suplex? Neat.

AGAINST: Giving away an I Quit match.

FOR: The pop for Rey.

FOR: Chavo taunting Rey with a "goodbye" wave before the match.

FOR: Cole: "I hope you don't retire and come back."

FOR: Chavo's assault on Rey's knee.

FOR: Chavo's frog splash Pillmanizer.

FOR: Would they dust off the Rock/Mankind angle where it was a recording of Mick's voice that actually said it?

FOR: Rey selling the limp.

FOR: The equipment carts spot.

FOR: The muted crowd when the match ends.

AGAINST: The spoken "Gregory Helms" before his music starts. It's a sad attempt to recapture the magic that was "Stand BACK! There's a Hurricane comin' through!"

AGAINST: That turnbuckle is rigged.

FOR: JBL: "Leave the Undertaker alone."

AGAINST: Kennedy no-selling the chokeslam.

FOR: Kristal actually dancing in the Diva Dance-Off graphic.

AGAINST: Miz's fauxhawk.

FOR: JBL on Miz: "Seriously. All professional wrestling aside, I personally hate him."

FOR: JBL on Kristal: "She won."

AGAINST: Nick and Aaron Carter?

BOTH: JBL hasn't heard of the Backstreet Boys?

FOR: JBL: "Layla's not hugging him back, you notice."

AGAINST: Jillian stealing the Late Show Grinder Girl's get-up.

FOR: I didn't think Michelle would do it. (Character and all.) But she brought a prop. And she did give Nick the diss push-off at the end.

AGAINST: Nick needing a break. Man up!

AGAINST: So, wait, Miz shorted Layla on purpose?

FOR: TALE OF THE TAPE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

AGAINST: More not being made throughout the show of Show and Cena being here.

FOR: Sharmell's dress.

AGAINST: Finlay?

FOR: Cole noting that Batista pinned Finlay to get this match.

AGAINST: Cole's 'motivational speaker' tangent.

AGAINST: Big Show's not gonna like that.

AGAINST: This may be the weakest run-in ever.

AGAINST: How much does Show weigh these days? He looks bigger than ever. I'm reminded of a J.R. line from a few years back: "He may be 550. We don't know." I think dude ate Psicosis.

FOR: Teddy: "Now, I don't know whether I can do this or not."
