Miss_perfection and I attended yet another SD taping last night, this time a 3 hour drive to Cleveland.

Here are some quick spoilers:

Superstars: Cody Rhodes pins JTG in a good ten minute plus match. Cody has his new "uncommon man"  heel gimmick going on.

SMACKDOWN starts with Teddy Long coming ot the ring to announce two qualifying matched for Fatal Four Way, He says Big Show has qualified due to his DQ win over Jack Swagger  at Over The Limit. Tonight it will be CM Punk (who Teddy reminds us is BALD!) vs. Kane and the return of THE UNDATAKAH (yes that is how Teddy usually says it) VS. Rey Mysterio.

Teddy is interrupted by Drew McIntyre. Drew tells Teddy to make him IC champ again. Teddy refuses and says wait til Matt Hardy gets his hands on you. Drew has yet another letter from Vince and this time Matt Hardy is "suspended without pay til further notice" Hardy runs down and goes after Drew but is restrained by security.

Out comes Drew's tag partner Jack Swagger and we have a tag match VS. Kofi/Show. Show's team wins after Show KO's Drew for the pin.

CM Punk backstage promo with Sereena and Luke. Punk is covered with a towel and decides he will go out tonight and face Kane.

Hawkins/Archer shown backstage with Vickie and they "will make an IMPACT!" Vickie welcomes Dolph who helped her last week with Christian and Hornswaggle. Vickie hits on Dolph and makes a match with Dolph/Chavo vs. Hornswaggle and Christian for later tonight.

Punk comes out, takes off the towel and has on a cool mask! Punk botches the 1st Go To Sleep and the second one looked bad as well so I don't know what will air. Punk wins with Go To Sleep which he hit after Gallows punched Kane.

Ziggler/Chavo lose to Hornswaggle/Christian after Christian hits the unprettier. After the match Dolph destroys Christian.

Laycool promo backstage-"99 Problems but Beth ain't one"

Gallows pins MVP with help from the masked SES member

Taker pins Rey in a good match complete with a standard TAKER IS BACK ring entrance. Taker wins via tombstone.


DARK Match
This wasn't really a match but Swagger runs down to beat up a helpless Rey, who is saved by..........................JTG?!!! R-Truth ,MVP and Christian all come out one by one and take turns beating up Swagger. 3 man -BALLING on Swagger ,well 2 at first and then Christian did his version. Matt Hardy comes out to a big pop, and Swagger is beat up once again to send the crowd home happy.

Yeah that match has so many possibilities. I could see the belt going to Taker,Punk or staying on Swagger.

I think Punk's new mask is sweet.

I didn't do as well with meeting people but I did get Otunga and Barrett from NXT as well as Skip, Slater and Tarver. I really wanted McIntyre, Hardy (since I had my HARDY SHOW MARKS sign, we missed Hardy at the Hotel by like 5 minutes-BOOOOOOO!) and Gabriel.
