1. WWE Smackdown 08/20/2010

    This will be my first note in the new SimpleNote app. They’ve introduced a new fullscreen mode which feels amazing. Every inch of the iPhone’s screen filled with my text.
    Of course, depending on how you feel about my writing, that’s not necessarily a good thing, is it?
    I’m still glad Kane got a clean win over Rey, as Rey seems to get a lot of help in that department. Kane has been booked very well as of late, and he deserves it for his years of being a good, loyal soldier.

    Rey Mysterio promo/Alberto Del Rio interrupts

    • I wasn’t really paying attention to what Rey was saying. Then Smackdown suddenly became a telenovela.
    • I really have no idea what these two are on about.
    • So I got that Rey doesn’t respect Alberto and vice versa? Whatever.


    Dashing Cody Rhode’s Grooming Tips

    • Awesome, as always.


    Intercontinental Championship: Kofi Kingston vs Dolph Ziggler with Vickie Guerrero

    • Were there really marks writing about Striker rooting for babyfaces? If so, they likely were wearing sweatpants.
    • Not their best confrontation, by a long shot.
    • Not sure why they went with obvious interference. I say they kill this feud and give Kofi something more productive to do.


    Ley-Cool backstage/Hornswoggle spies like a Looney Tunes character

    • That was positively surreal.


    StraightEdge Society backstage

    • Woohoo! Haven’t seen Serena work since Wrestlelicous.
    • Guess Kelly Kelly is taking the pin.


    Mixed-Tag Match: Luke Gallows and Serena with Joey Mercury vs Big Show and Kelly Kelly

    • If Show inhales wrong, he will swallow Kelly Kelly.
    • Nothing spectacular, as Kelly was involved, but it was good to see Serena work.
    • It’s also good to be right. I could totally be on WWE Creative.


    Kane explains himself

    • Wow. 1997. Glen Jacobs had hair. Montreal hadn’t happened yet. Memories …
    • Ooh, show some Ministry of Darkness clips!
    • Did I really just see Hogan and Angle in that montage?
    • This angle is fantastic. I really does feel like a culmination of all their history. I just wish they didn’t gloss over the WrestleMania XX match.
    • Really looking forward to Kane vs Undertaker at Hell in a Cell. Make it happen, WWE.


    Christian vs Drew McIntyre

    • Hello Cody. What brings you to ringside, other than a very dapper suit?
    • McIntyre is positively vicious.
    • Rhodes is really good on commentary. He might have a future as a color man if being dashing doesn’t work out.
    • Christian’s one-armed comeback was solid. This one match is better than anything that was on Impact.
    • Wow, amazing, out-of-nowhere win for Christian.
    • Stellar post-match beatdown as well. I look forward to a great series of tag matches between these two factions.


    Jack Swagger, Rosa Mendes and MVP backstage

    • A shootout? As in the basketball contest MVP had with Matt Hardy five years ago?


    Teddy Long and Kane backstage

    • Teddy has been watching Vince McMahon tapes for inspiration.


    Alberto DelRio vs Rey Mysterio

    • Wow, he got the JBL entrance on his first night. That’s pretty impressive.
    • There is no worm in tequila. The worm can be found in bottles of mescal, which Del Rio wouldn’t be drinking.
    • Will Rey’s primary offense always involve kicking guys in the calves in all matches from now on?
    • Del Rio doesn’t look too bad. I like that his goal appears to be to control the pace as he’s not big enough to completely dominate Rey.
    • You can’t powerbomb Kidman and you can’t Monkey Flip Mysterio.
    • I really like that finisher and I like that it was a clean win over Rey.
