00:00:00I'm looking for someone special, someone in that SmackDown locker room, who has what

00:00:25it takes to win this, the Kurt Angle Great American Award.

00:00:31I put together a series of matches, and the winners of these matches will become the official

00:00:37nominees of this prestigious award.

00:00:40But the winner receives something much, much more.

00:00:44The opportunity to be the number one contender to face Eddie Guerrero for the WWE Championship.

00:00:52The more Eddie Guerrero lies, cheats, and steals, the more he desecrates the very fabric that

00:01:00this country was built on.

00:01:01Uh-oh.

00:01:02Here comes the champion.

00:01:05If I am such a threat, why don't you just do something about it right here, right now?

00:01:13Hold on a second there, Palms.

00:01:15I want to introduce you to someone that all these fans can be proud of.

00:01:19I'm going to make him the fifth and final nominee for the Kurt Angle Great American Award.

00:01:25He's a man that clothesline through the hell last week on SmackDown.

00:01:32John Bradshaw Layfield.

00:01:36Eddie, listen to me.

00:01:38That was nothing personal last week, all right?

00:01:41Amigo, it's just business.

00:01:44It's just business, Holmes.

00:01:48Well, what a little, I thought, in that case.

00:01:52Oh, make it personal.

00:01:54That's a $1,000 hat.

00:01:56You bring it back to me right now.

00:01:57Check this.

00:01:58Oh, that's beautiful.

00:02:02This is not bad, Holmes.

00:02:04But your hat really comes in handy.

00:02:07Oh, man.

00:02:09You're going to pay this, Eddie.

00:02:11You're going to pay.

00:02:12Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:02:21Come on.

00:02:22Yeah.

00:02:23I've bowed too hard.

00:02:26Come on.

00:02:27It was my life, my time, my rights, my rhymes, my mind, my struggle, hustle, sweat and my blood, too.

00:02:34My prayer and the smell's fear, I smell a lot.

00:02:37My company's split, shit, I thought I was hot, I wanted all.

00:02:41All excess, the sex, the sex, the sex, the sex, the sex, I want it all, no less, so come on.

00:02:47Earlier this week, San Antonio played host of College Basketball's Final Four.

00:03:10Tonight, San Antonio hosts SmackDown Final Five.

00:03:15Who will win the Great American Award tonight on SmackDown.

00:03:20Well, check this out, going back together for the first time.

00:03:24Former Tag Team Champions, R.B.D. and Booker T.

00:03:28Collide against teaming together for the first time, Charlie Haas and the Big Show.

00:03:32Three Great American nominees in one match tonight.

00:03:36Speaking of Great American nominees.

00:03:41My man, JBL.

00:03:45Talk about ridiculous.

00:03:49Riding in style, baby, with those Longhorns.

00:03:51Yeah, a limo with Longhorns, how ridiculous, how egotistical, how arrogant is that?

00:03:58McCall, I said, oh, he's a newest New Yorker.

00:03:59I saw him riding around in heaven.

00:04:02And I'm talking to some of my people in New York City, the native New Yorkers.

00:04:04They're not too happy with Bradshaw and Joey Numbers in particular.

00:04:08They know what the parallel parking situation is, Texas Longhorns and Bradshaw, and I love him.

00:04:13Ladies and gentlemen, from New York City, John Bradshaw Leifield.

00:04:21Well, he loves to talk about himself, does Bradshaw, a financial analyst of radio talk show hosts.

00:04:26What's this, what's this?

00:04:30It might be a, there must be a little spot on the car.

00:04:34Oh, please.

00:04:35Yeah, well, back's it up there, there you go.

00:04:37Well, JBL is one of the five finalists for the Great American nominees tonight.

00:04:42Bradshaw likes things, just because your car's a pink style, doesn't mean Bradshaw's glimals.

00:04:46I've got a nice car, vintage 1977 Ford Pinta.

00:04:50Look at JBL, baby, John Bradshaw Leifield, hot man.

00:04:54Well, Bradshaw didn't have to win a matchup to become a nominee.

00:04:57He was named a nominee by Kurt Angle last week.

00:04:59This man is the epitome of success.

00:05:02He is successful, I'll agree with you on that.

00:05:04Thank you very much.

00:05:23I'm glad you people are here today.

00:05:29You know, I'm going to forgive this as a sign of Southern ignorance, because this is exactly

00:05:41why I left Texas and went to New York City.

00:05:50Today is a very, very big day for John Bradshaw Leifield.

00:05:59Because if this is indeed a meritocracy, then today, I will be the recipient of the Kurt

00:06:09Angle Great American Award.

00:06:12Because who better than to represent America than me?

00:06:25And I promise, I guarantee you, I will prove without a shadow of doubt today why I deserve this award.

00:06:42Take that to the bank.

00:06:44Take that to the bank.

00:06:46Last Thursday on SmackDown, Eddie Guerrero proved he was the complete antithesis of what any American

00:07:05should be when he stole my cowboy hat.

00:07:24You're cheering a man who committed a crime.

00:07:26You know, that's a misdemeanor in some states.

00:07:31In others, it's a felony.

00:07:33Because these hats cost me $1,000.

00:07:38Now, when I grew up in West Texas,

00:07:41$1,000 was a lot of money.

00:07:43And I'm sure to all of you people out here, $1,000 is a fortune.

00:07:51Hey, there's nothing wrong with being poor.

00:07:56A lot of times, it's just a sign of bad education, okay?

00:08:00You can work your way out of it.

00:08:03Look at me.

00:08:04I moved to New York City.

00:08:09Now, John Bradshaw Layfield.

00:08:12JBL, my friends call me.

00:08:14You can call me John Bradshaw Layfield.

00:08:16I live on Central Park.

00:08:19I overlook the Natural History Museum.

00:08:22It's a beautiful, beautiful place.

00:08:23It's a great setting.

00:08:25And $1,000 to me is really just front pocket money.

00:08:31I don't have to go in my wallet.

00:08:33For things like my designer clothes.

00:08:39For my New York City nightlife.

00:08:42For my luxury hotel suites.

00:08:46For an occasional escort service.

00:08:48Hey, I'm a male.

00:08:56But most importantly, it's for things like my customized white limousine.

00:09:03You know that gives me a hell of an idea.

00:09:12I'm gonna show you people what $1,000 means to me right now.

00:09:15Who wants to earn $1,000 right now?

00:09:20Who?

00:09:24All you have to do is, Paco, Paco, stop.

00:09:31Stop right there.

00:09:31You've done a great job, but stop, Paco.

00:09:34All you have to do is finish Paco's job and watch the hood of my limousine in 60 seconds.

00:09:44Now I feel like Money Hall.

00:09:47Let's make a deal.

00:09:49Who wants to earn $1,000 from John Bradshaw Layfield?

00:09:56You know, that's just what's wrong with welfare and society.

00:09:58Now you'd cheer me that I'm handing out money.

00:10:01That's typical.

00:10:02But who wants to earn $1,000 right here?

00:10:15Latino Heat, you.

00:10:18Come here.

00:10:19Come here.

00:10:20Cross over that rail.

00:10:21I'm sure you're used to crossing borders.

00:10:33Son, we ain't got all day.

00:10:34It's a two-hour show.

00:10:35Now get up here.

00:10:40Get in the ring.

00:10:43What's your name?

00:10:45Enrique.

00:10:51Piece of advice, go by the name Ricky, all right?

00:10:57You're in the United States.

00:10:59You want to earn $1,000?

00:11:01All right.

00:11:02Take over for Paco.

00:11:04I'll put a stopwatch on you.

00:11:05Let's see what happens.

00:11:12Come on, Ricky.

00:11:13Let's make a deal.

00:11:19Paco, you got a replacement right here.

00:11:21I'll tell you what, Ricky.

00:11:22Wait just a minute.

00:11:24I got a Rolex time right here.

00:11:27But you know what?

00:11:28These people may not believe me.

00:11:29So how about this?

00:11:30Can we get a clock put up right here?

00:11:34Perfect.

00:11:35We had technology like that on the border.

00:11:37We wouldn't have some of these problems.

00:11:39I'll tell you what.

00:11:40When I say go, you clean this within 60 seconds,

00:11:45you get $1,000.

00:11:47All right?

00:11:47Wow.

00:11:48One, two, three, go.

00:11:56Come on, Ricky.

00:11:57This is more money you can make in a whole summer of hauling hay.

00:12:01Come on.

00:12:02It's more than you can make in three months of pouring concrete.

00:12:05Ricky's working hard.

00:12:06Look at him go.

00:12:07Come on, Ricky.

00:12:08Mamacita's going to be happy with you.

00:12:09Come home with $1,000.

00:12:1340 seconds, Ricky.

00:12:15I want it spick and span.

00:12:19Don't get on the horns.

00:12:19Watch the horns.

00:12:2030 seconds, Ricky.

00:12:22You're going to get there.

00:12:23You got half a minute and you make $1,000.

00:12:26You're almost there.

00:12:27Don't miss the spot now.

00:12:31Ricky, I think you're going to do it.

00:12:33I think you're going to make $1,000 to take home.

00:12:37You're missing a little spot right here, okay?

00:12:40Ricky, I'm sorry.

00:12:42I'm sorry.

00:12:43Wait, wait.

00:12:44You still got nine seconds.

00:12:45Hurry, Ricky.

00:12:45You can do it.

00:12:46You can.

00:12:46I'm sorry, Ricky.

00:12:47Are you careful?

00:12:48Don't get him a custom suit.

00:12:49You can do it.

00:12:50You can do it three.

00:12:51Come on, Ricky.

00:12:51Two seconds.

00:12:57Came close.

00:12:58Came close.

00:12:58I'm sorry, Ricky.

00:13:00Come here.

00:13:01Come here.

00:13:02Come here.

00:13:04Come here, Ricky.

00:13:05Watch the horns.

00:13:06Now, be careful.

00:13:06Don't touch me with that.

00:13:07This $3,000 suit.

00:13:09Careful.

00:13:11I thought you had it.

00:13:12You just had a little mishap.

00:13:13But you know, sometimes mishaps in life define you.

00:13:16Let me give you an example.

00:13:18Ninth game of my college football career, I broke my ankle.

00:13:21I played on that.

00:13:22The ninth and tenth game, I made consensus All-American.

00:13:26Sometimes you just work harder and you work smarter.

00:13:30Now, I probably should give you this money.

00:13:31I really should.

00:13:34But, Ricky, that was really a half a job.

00:13:37Now, I know you're poor and you're probably uneducated, and that's okay.

00:13:40There's nothing wrong with that.

00:13:41But that's what's wrong with society.

00:13:45You can't look to people like me for a handout just because you don't do a job very well.

00:13:50I'm sorry.

00:13:51Run along.

00:13:52Enjoy the show.

00:13:52It's a nice t-shirt.

00:13:53Go on.

00:13:56This proves my point, folks.

00:13:59You work harder and you work smarter like I have.

00:14:05Then you get what I have.

00:14:07People like you should strive to be people like me.

00:14:10John Bradshaw Layfield.

00:14:15A great, great American.

00:14:20Oh, give me a break.

00:14:21The poor kid, Ricky, gets nothing.

00:14:23He had the hoodwax.

00:14:25Bradshaw stuck it to him.

00:14:26Man, if the kid didn't finish the job, Cole, I mean, that's the way it works.

00:14:30He gave, Bradshaw gave the kid an opportunity.

00:14:33The kid failed.

00:14:33How can Bradshaw call himself a great American when he sticks it to all the great

00:14:37Americans out there?

00:14:38He's one of the candidates for the great American award picked by Kurt Angle.

00:14:42Bradshaw is.

00:14:42Come on, JBL.

00:14:43Well, of course, Bradshaw, one of five nominees for Kurt Angle's great American

00:14:47award tonight, an opportunity to be number one contender for the WWE title.

00:14:52There's our first minute.

00:14:53I just pointed out, hand-picked personally by our general manager Kurt Angle,

00:14:57John Bradshaw Layfield.

00:14:59One of the other nominees, Booker T.

00:15:01Well, a former five-time WCW champion, Booker T, quite possibly, can win this award.

00:15:07How about Charlie Haas?

00:15:09Well, Charlie Haas, another man who could win it.

00:15:11Former pupil of Kurt Angle.

00:15:13I mean, come on, former All-American also.

00:15:16The biggest nominee?

00:15:17The Big Show.

00:15:18Well, the biggest is an understatement.

00:15:21Not quite possibly, could be the biggest great American of all time.

00:15:24And how about the doctor, John Cena?

00:15:27Well, as you said, he's a doctor.

00:15:29He's got a PhD and his United States Champion.

00:15:31Who better than John Cena?

00:15:33Again, the winner will become the number one contender for the WWE Championship.

00:15:37But coming up next on SmackDown, the Dudleys look to send the Tag Team Champions a message from Dudleyville.

00:15:43The Dudley boys versus Rikishi and Scottie next.

00:15:55Back on SmackDown!

00:15:56It is time for the Red Hot Dudleys!

00:16:04Following non-title tag team action scheduled for one follow.

00:16:08Approaching a ring from New York City at a combined weight of 543 pounds, Bubba Ray and D-Von, the Dudley boys!

00:16:19The Dudleys have been out of roles since coming at SmackDown and a big trade from Raw a couple of weeks back.

00:16:25I tell you, a new competition here on SmackDown is D-Von and Bubba's juice is flowing!

00:16:30Well, WWE Championship is Nelsey-Wright with a contract for the PS2, X5, and PC.

00:16:37One way or another, the job gets done.

00:16:40And by Reebok, the Reebok Classic BB, available only at Foot Locker.

00:16:47And by NPM Stitches, Walk & Call, starring The Rock.

00:16:50This year is now rated PG and 30.

00:16:53It's all walking tall this weekend, off the hook!

00:16:56And at a combined weight of 564 pounds, they are the tag team champions, Scottie Tuhati and Rikishi!

00:17:07Not a title matchup for the tag team champions tonight, but I'll tell you this, Kaz.

00:17:11Rikishi and Scottie would love to stop the momentum of the Dudley boys in their tracks here tonight.

00:17:18Well, that will not be easy, and Rikishi and Scottie Tuhati are very aware of that.

00:17:23The Dudley boys extremely successful in our industry.

00:17:27Undefeated, as you pointed out, here on SmackDown so far.

00:17:29The Rikishi and Scottie set the tag on the Dudley boys.

00:17:32Still to come tonight, Kurt Angle names his great American award winner.

00:17:36And coming up, the Cruiserweight title is on the line, Chavo Guerrero defending against Jamie Dole.

00:17:43I can't wait to see that one. That one's going to be off the hook, man.

00:17:46Well, this one's going to be off the hook, all you say the least.

00:17:49I'll tell you, what is it about the Dudley boys, the 17-time tag team champions?

00:17:55They have been rolling since coming over here from Raw.

00:17:57The Dudley boys, they feed off of aggression, intensity, attitude.

00:18:02That's what Bubba and Devon's about.

00:18:04Two well-liked, respected teams getting it on here in this matchup.

00:18:08The 350-pound Rikishi backing Devon up into the corner.

00:18:12Once you're in that ring, Cole, it don't matter if you like a guy or not.

00:18:15It's all about getting victims. What's going to happen here?

00:18:17A clean break by the tag team champion, Rikishi.

00:18:20And Rikishi, actually, Devon was talking a little trash there.

00:18:26And Devon blocks the right hand, and Devon done that.

00:18:29How important is this matchup for the Dudley boys tag?

00:18:32We're putting the brakes on here.

00:18:33Well, if we can get a victory over the tag team champions, even if it's-

00:18:37No!

00:18:37Any time you can get a victory, and that thing would stop.

00:18:41What the hell is this?

00:18:43An uppercut by Rikishi.

00:18:45Devon in the corner he doesn't want to be in, as Rikishi and Scotty, the tag team

00:18:49champions, begin to isolate Devon Dudley.

00:18:52Well, here comes the speed now of Scotty Tuhani.

00:18:54Probably the fastest man in that ring right now.

00:18:56Let's see.

00:18:58And Scotty knocks Devon down.

00:19:01Devon, kick down!

00:19:02Hook of the leg, and a kick out by Devon.

00:19:04One spot by Scotty, hit a big high impact move, go front cover!

00:19:09And one thing the Dudleys usually have on their opponents is the experience back,

00:19:12and the fact they've been together as a team, but Rikishi and Scotty have been together for

00:19:16a long time as well.

00:19:17Quite possibly evened up here now, as far as experience now, the big Bubba ran Dudleys in there.

00:19:21Here's the bruiser from the Dudley boys.

00:19:24Bubba Reyes, there's the neck breaker, and quickly into the cover.

00:19:29Look at the leg of Scotty, and Scotty rolls the shoulder out.

00:19:32When Bubba goes for that cover, again, cutting the ring off.

00:19:35Bubba keeps all his body weight and hooks the leg.

00:19:37Look at this, really cutting the ring off, just pulling Scotty to the bell.

00:19:41And an elbow driven high into the back of Scotty Tuhani.

00:19:44Come on, Scotty!

00:19:46Now what?

00:19:49Bubba- A direct shot, close fist to the skull of Scotty.

00:19:53It's bad enough getting punched in the face.

00:19:55But it's really bad when a guy shows you the fist first, and it pops you.

00:19:58Scotty desperately trying to wiggle his way out.

00:20:01And he's looking at the back of the head.

00:20:03This could be the opening.

00:20:05That's Scotty too hot he needs if he can make it tag to Rikishi.

00:20:08Well, bent down at a turning point here, Tass.

00:20:12Well, the question is, can Bubba get to D-Bond?

00:20:15Can Scotty get to the Big Kish?

00:20:19And Scotty desperately tries to make a tag to his partner Rikishi.

00:20:22Look at Scotty, get there, Cole.

00:20:24Here's the tag, in here comes the 350 counter.

00:20:26Rikishi with the right hand, and another one to D-Bond.

00:20:29And Rikishi starting to build momentum.

00:20:31Yeah, the Big Kish is moving here.

00:20:33Wow!

00:20:33Big clothesline there.

00:20:34Big clothesline, D-Bond going for the right of the top rope.

00:20:38And Rikishi is gonna back it on up.

00:20:40Look at that thing!

00:20:41Good God, heads up!

00:20:43Big squash in the corner.

00:20:47Bubba Ray's in trouble.

00:20:49Bubba's caught.

00:20:50Belly and a belly plants Bubba Ray.

00:20:52That's it!

00:20:52He's the cover.

00:20:53There's one.

00:20:53D-Bond!

00:20:54Two, and D-Bond saves the matchup.

00:20:56Again, the experience of the Dudleys there.

00:21:00D-Bond Dudley realized that his partner was in trouble.

00:21:02Made the save.

00:21:03And now the right hand to the side of the head of Rikishi.

00:21:06And the Dudleys set for a double team.

00:21:08Gotta watch it.

00:21:09Don't get those qualified here though, Dudleys.

00:21:11Rikishi whipped into the corner.

00:21:12What's this?

00:21:13What's this?

00:21:13Oh!

00:21:14Scotty Duhati made a tag off the double clothesline.

00:21:18Scotty, I believe, is the legal man.

00:21:21But can Scotty get to his feet here?

00:21:22He's on his feet badly.

00:21:24Scotty Duhati measuring Bubba Ray Dudleys.

00:21:27I don't think Bubba knows Scotty's legal.

00:21:28Bubba doesn't know much right now, but Scotty takes off his head.

00:21:31Bubba's out.

00:21:32There's the cover.

00:21:33Hook of the leg.

00:21:34There's two.

00:21:35Oh!

00:21:35That kicks out.

00:21:38What's Scotty gotta do to get a victory here?

00:21:41You gotta try and get Bubba if you can, Scotty.

00:21:43On the outside, D-Va with Rikishi.

00:21:45Rikishi and D-Va battling out near the steel post outside.

00:21:49It's Scotty and Bubba inside the ring.

00:21:51Ripped into the corner goes Bubba Ray Dudleys.

00:21:52Here comes Scotty.

00:21:53Oh!

00:21:54Oh!

00:21:55Bulldog!

00:21:56And here it comes!

00:21:57The worm, baby!

00:21:59Scottie Tuhani into the worm.

00:22:03And D-Va from the Hines, breaking up the worm.

00:22:11Look at this!

00:22:12Redue!

00:22:13Redue!

00:22:15The combo!

00:22:16One, two, three!

00:22:18Bubba and D-Va beat the Tag Team Champions!

00:22:21The momentum continues!

00:22:23Here are your winners!

00:22:24The Dudley boy!

00:22:26Momentum!

00:22:27The Dudleys on a major role to come in a smackdown!

00:22:31You can think the Dudleys got a message to the Tag Team Champions!

00:22:35The damn stripping!

00:22:36They're contenders now, my man!

00:22:38How pumped up are Bubba Ray and D-Va looking at one point to become 18 times Tag Team Champions!

00:22:46This is what it's about, the Great American Award.

00:22:55You know I was an All-American.

00:22:56Yeah.

00:22:58And I was way better than my former Tag Team partner Shelton Benjamin, right?

00:23:03Well Shelton did beat Triple H on Raw.

00:23:06God, what if I'm not a successful Shelton?

00:23:11I mean, last week, against RVD, I was ahead on points, right?

00:23:17Yeah.

00:23:18I mean, Kurt, I need to win this award!

00:23:20I deserve to win this award!

00:23:21Relax, man, what if I-

00:23:22Charlie, hold on a second.

00:23:25Breathe.

00:23:26Come on, in and out, relax.

00:23:29Listen, man.

00:23:31You're a nominee of the Kurt Angle Great American Award.

00:23:35And you still have a chance to sway me in my decision tonight.

00:23:38How?

00:23:40Listen, you have a tag match against RVD and Booker T.

00:23:44Now, if you take it to RVD like I know you can, you could be the winner of this award.

00:23:51Think about that.

00:23:54I'm not gonna let you down.

00:23:56I'm gonna prove to everyone who should be the Great American.

00:23:59You do it.

00:24:03I need to calm down, youngster.

00:24:06Come here, listen to me.

00:24:07There's only one superstar that deserves a Kurt Angle Great American Award.

00:24:14There's only one superstar that deserves to be the WWE number one contender.

00:24:19And that's your partner tonight in your tag match against RVD and Booker T.

00:24:22You look so good to me.

00:24:39You look so good to me.

00:24:43You look so good to me.

00:24:47You look so good to me.

00:25:03You look so good to me.

00:25:04You look so good to me.

00:25:04Ooh, travel.

00:25:05Well, you know, Rico and beautiful Miss Jackie

00:25:09are going to be here next week.

00:25:10They came over to SmackDown

00:25:11when we traded A-Train and Chuck Palumbo to Raw.

00:25:14Can't wait. Rico Jackie next week.

00:25:16But here comes the Cruiserweight champ.

00:25:21Following contest is scheduled for one fall,

00:25:24and it is for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.

00:25:29Making its way to the ring,

00:25:30being accompanied by Chavo Guerrero Sr.

00:25:33from El Paso, Texas,

00:25:34weighing in at 213 pounds

00:25:37is the Cruiserweight Champion,

00:25:40Chavo Guerrero.

00:25:42A good thing Chavo Guerrero brought his daddy out here with us tonight

00:25:45because he's going to need all the help he's going to get

00:25:48because Jamie Noble is ready for action.

00:25:51Should be a hell of a match.

00:25:52Noble's a hell of a competitor,

00:25:53but Chavo Guerrero needs that.

00:25:56Chavo's our Cruiserweight Champion, my friend.

00:25:59Actually, you're not my friend.

00:26:00You're just a guy.

00:26:01And the challenger from Hanover, West Virginia,

00:26:07weighing in at 198 pounds,

00:26:11Jamie Noble.

00:26:12Jamie Noble can get it done.

00:26:13Go form a Cruiserweight Champion himself.

00:26:16Extremely scrappy individual.

00:26:18I'll tell you, I talked to Jamie Noble a little bit earlier on today.

00:26:23Noble told me he's looking forward to this matchup tonight.

00:26:26Of course, his extra-

00:26:26But Nidia moved over to Raw.

00:26:28Noble looking to refocus, take control of his life now.

00:26:31Power for pound.

00:26:32Power for pound.

00:26:32Goal Jamie Noble just might be one of the toughest competitors in the WWE today.

00:26:38Or tonight.

00:26:38Or now.

00:26:39Huge night here on SmackDown.

00:26:41Cruiserweight Championship on the line.

00:26:43Chavo the Champion.

00:26:44Former Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble, the challenger.

00:26:47Look at this.

00:26:47Colorable tie up here.

00:26:49Nice.

00:26:50Taking him down there, Chavo.

00:26:51Very quick.

00:26:52Nice trip up there.

00:26:53And reversion, look at that hammerlock.

00:26:55Jamie Noble.

00:26:56An arm bar on a hammerlock, I should say, on Chavo Guerrero.

00:26:59The Cruiserweight Champion.

00:27:00Look at this.

00:27:01Nice takedown.

00:27:02Let's get him a step there for Chavo Guerrero.

00:27:04Hold on, give Chavo credit for that, a beautifully textbook flying man right there.

00:27:08I'll give Chavo credit.

00:27:09He's been Cruiserweight Champion nearly two months now.

00:27:12Won the title back at No Way Out in February, thanks in part to his dad.

00:27:16Look at that, Chavo.

00:27:16He just finds him a great matador in the ring, Paul.

00:27:19Let's go.

00:27:20Let's go.

00:27:20He looks like.

00:27:21He might as well be a matador.

00:27:22Like WWE Hall of Famer, Tito Santana.

00:27:24Yeah, all right.

00:27:25Here we go, Noble.

00:27:26I'm cheating up now.

00:27:27Let's go.

00:27:28Let's go.

00:27:29Let's go.

00:27:30Let's go.

00:27:31Let's go.

00:27:32Jamie Noble, Chavo Guerrero, and there's a right hand by Chavo Guerrero backing Noble up.

00:27:38That's why Chavo's the champion.

00:27:40He knows when to get up on his opponent quickly with that boot to the gun.

00:27:45Just stick styles in this matchup.

00:27:46Nice kiss.

00:27:47And Noble, the challenger, taking the champion of the slam.

00:27:52Jamie Noble.

00:27:53Look at this.

00:27:54Oh, there's the backbreaker.

00:27:55Cover on the champ.

00:27:57Showers down.

00:27:57Chavo kicks out.

00:27:58Very nice by Jamie Noble.

00:28:00No wasted motion there with those three moves.

00:28:02And now Chavo trying to find his way out of it.

00:28:05Jamie Noble, his leg grabbed by Chavo Senior.

00:28:08And there goes Chavo the champ.

00:28:11Launched over the top rope.

00:28:12Watch Noble here.

00:28:13He's a dead devil.

00:28:14Jamie Noble.

00:28:15Go!

00:28:16Through the second rope.

00:28:16The missile takes down Chavo.

00:28:18It's a suicide plotter right there by Jamie Noble.

00:28:21We're flat right into Chavo Guerrero's mush.

00:28:25And Jamie Noble, the challenger, sends Chavo back in the ring.

00:28:28Oh, that's where you gotta get.

00:28:29Oh, oh, oh, oh.

00:28:30The senior may want to think twice about that.

00:28:32Oh, she was, she was a star.

00:28:33Look at it.

00:28:34The distraction.

00:28:34Oh.

00:28:35And Chavo Guerrero capitalizes.

00:28:37Jamie Noble hit that barrier very hard there.

00:28:40And the confident champion standing power in the ring.

00:28:43Referee Brian Heppner begins to count.

00:28:45Chavo Guerrero wouldn't mind seeing a count out here.

00:28:47Wouldn't retain his Cruiserweight Championship.

00:28:49Of course, the champion at the advantage, Noble must take him a victory.

00:28:52Do you pinfall or submission to take the title here tonight?

00:28:56Thanks.

00:28:56Thanks for laying down the whole deal for us.

00:28:58Appreciate it.

00:28:58Oh, and a big uppercut by Chavo Guerrero.

00:29:01Here's the cover.

00:29:02Forearm in the face, Noble kicks out.

00:29:04Forearm in the face to maintain control of the man.

00:29:06Right across, driving across the face on Jamie for the paint cover.

00:29:09And look at this.

00:29:12Chavo Guerrero.

00:29:14This is a really bad predicament for Noble here.

00:29:17Jamie Noble.

00:29:18How innovative.

00:29:19How innovative.

00:29:20Look at this nice counter.

00:29:21Noble slides underneath.

00:29:23There's a neck breaker by Chavo Guerrero.

00:29:26A twiseling neck breaker by Noble on the champion.

00:29:29And Chavo Sr. a little worried right now.

00:29:32Chavo Sr. playing cheerleader.

00:29:34He'll eat him.

00:29:35The old cheerleader.

00:29:36Whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:29:38And Jamie Noble face first goes Chavo Guerrero.

00:29:41And the challenger beginning to build momentum.

00:29:44Well, Jamie knows this is a great opportunity, a championship opportunity.

00:29:48And now he's got the champion on the ropes, but Noble's on the ropes.

00:29:51Jamie Noble drops the leg off the second rope.

00:29:53It could do it.

00:29:54Hooks the leg.

00:29:54The champ is on the line.

00:29:56And a kick out after two by the champion.

00:29:59Jamie Noble at two, and the champion just kicked out off the near fall.

00:30:02Noble got all that leg drop.

00:30:04Now, look at this.

00:30:05Noble going for his textbook Tiger driver.

00:30:07But it's countered.

00:30:08Chavo counters.

00:30:09And Chavo Guerrero just kicked out the challenger 30 at three.

00:30:16And now Noble, what a chop down, in control of the champion.

00:30:21Jamie Noble up on the shoulders of Chavo Guerrero.

00:30:24Look at this showdown.

00:30:26Chavo Guerrero.

00:30:27Chavo used to run and steals a win.

00:30:32Here's your winner, and still, Cruiserweight champion, Chavo Guerrero.

00:30:39And you gotta love that.

00:30:40Father and son showing emotion a moment ago.

00:30:42Chavo, and Chavo's a hobby.

00:30:44That's what love's about, Cole.

00:30:45Fitness and fatherhood.

00:30:46Look at this.

00:30:47Father and son.

00:30:48What a great match.

00:30:50Chavo Guerrero, though.

00:30:52Has he used to run.

00:30:53That's the win.

00:30:54That's the win.

00:30:55Yeah, he got the win.

00:30:56But he lost his shot.

00:30:57That's all right.

00:30:58That Chavo got the win.

00:30:59Family entertainment.

00:31:00Family luck right there.

00:31:01Following son.

00:31:02How proud.

00:31:03But the champion cheated.

00:31:04He used to run to retain the title.

00:31:06Come on.

00:31:07Don't let the facts get away from the story.

00:31:09What's up, gangsters?

00:31:11This is your boy, Theodore All-Long.

00:31:13Now, gentlemen, Theodore All-Long is the talk in the locker room.

00:31:17And the reason why is because everybody, and I know you two are two now.

00:31:20I know you're waiting anxiously to see who Theodore All-Long is going to make a superstar.

00:31:25You know, somebody that's going to represent the SD, SmackDown.

00:31:28Now, I know y'all feeling that.

00:31:30Now, you see, what I want you to know, player, is that I'm looking for a man that has the perfect body.

00:31:36Bam!

00:31:37A man that has the face of Adonis.

00:31:42Bam!

00:31:43Also, a man that's going to look good on the cover of Homegirl magazine.

00:31:48But most of all, the man that has the mad, mad dollar bill signs in his eyes.

00:31:53Now, I know you two are feeling that.

00:31:55Oh, and by the way, what I am looking for is the complete opposite of you, Spike Dudley.

00:32:00Now, you see, players?

00:32:01Excuse me, excuse me.

00:32:02Teddy, can I talk to you for a second?

00:32:04Get the name right, player, Theodore All-Long.

00:32:06Theodore, excuse me.

00:32:07You know what?

00:32:08I know I don't have the best body in the world.

00:32:09That's true.

00:32:10I know I don't have the pretty boy face to put on the cover of magazines.

00:32:12True.

00:32:13But one thing I do know is I can whoop your butt any day of the week.

00:32:17Wait just a minute.

00:32:18Wait just a minute, player.

00:32:19Don't start hating.

00:32:20No, no, no.

00:32:21I'll tell you what.

00:32:22Why don't you put your money where your big fat mouth is and meet me one-on-one in that ring tonight?

00:32:27What's wrong with you, player?

00:32:28You drinking that hate aid again?

00:32:29Now, let me explain something to you.

00:32:31I'm an entrepreneur.

00:32:32I'm a businessman.

00:32:33I don't get my hands dirty, neither do I get my clothes dirty.

00:32:36So your answer is meeting you in the ring?

00:32:38No.

00:32:39You know what, Teddy?

00:32:40You're real good at running that mouth, but it sounds to me like you're just a little bit yellow.

00:32:45In fact, you're a lot yellow.

00:32:46You're scared.

00:32:47Come on, Teddy.

00:32:50Okay.

00:32:51All right.

00:32:52All right, player.

00:32:53Okay.

00:32:54Hey, I'll play Whitey's game.

00:32:55Now, you want some of Theodore All-Long?

00:32:56I want a lot of you.

00:32:57Well, you got it.

00:32:58And not only do you have a piece of Theodore All-Long, but you've got some thugging and bugging.

00:33:02And let me tell you one thing.

00:33:03If it's anybody here that I can beat, it's you, cracker.

00:33:06Now, you holler at your boy.

00:33:07I'll see you in the ring.

00:33:09I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:10I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:11I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:12I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:13I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:14I'm gonna whoop him.

00:33:19Hey, Brooke.

00:33:20Yo, yo, man.

00:33:21You really wanna do this, man.

00:33:22Dude.

00:33:23What is it with this attitude you've had lately?

00:33:26That ain't you, man.

00:33:27Not the Booker T I know.

00:33:29Yeah, yeah.

00:33:30That was the Booker T on Raw.

00:33:32This is the Booker T on SmackDown.

00:33:34Look, man.

00:33:35We had a good thing going, man.

00:33:37Yeah.

00:33:38Just the Raw Tag Team Champions.

00:33:40We got respect.

00:33:41Not like he on SmackDown, man.

00:33:43Yeah.

00:33:44So what?

00:33:45We'll become champions again.

00:33:46We'll show everybody on SmackDown the same thing we showed everybody on Raw.

00:33:50Booker T and RVD, there ain't a tag team that can even touch us, Book.

00:33:54Anywhere.

00:33:55Yeah, I know that.

00:33:56You know that.

00:33:57The SmackDown fans, they know it.

00:33:59Just don't show it.

00:34:01Man, look how they treat us around here.

00:34:03Look how they treated you last week.

00:34:05Man, Kurt Angle robbed you, man.

00:34:07You lost your chance to be number one contender.

00:34:10Yeah, I saw it.

00:34:12And I said, man, I'm gonna do anything I gotta do to beat Bob Holly.

00:34:16If I gotta pull his trunks over his head, that's what I'm gonna do, man.

00:34:20Look, we gotta watch out for ourselves around here, dawg.

00:34:24Look, Book.

00:34:26There's nobody I'd rather have as my tag team partner than you.

00:34:30Nobody.

00:34:31So whatever, man.

00:34:32I heard you back on Raw.

00:34:34I got you back on SmackDown.

00:34:38You still don't get it, do you, man?

00:34:40Look, I'm Raw, man.

00:34:43But if you wanna go out here, win the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, all right?

00:34:52Let's do it.

00:34:56Wow.

00:34:57Can they do it?

00:35:01Ladies and gentlemen, SmackDown presents Judgment Day on Pay-Per-View.

00:35:05And tickets on sale this Saturday at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

00:35:10SmackDown is going Hollywood.

00:35:12They love SmackDown in California, LA.

00:35:15We're coming, baby.

00:35:16Judgment Day.

00:35:17We're back on SmackDown at San Antonio.

00:35:19Danny Basham set for a one-on-one matchup with the Doctor of Thuganomics.

00:35:29Speaking of Devils.

00:35:31And on this thing.

00:35:33Way in at 248 pounds is the WWE United States Champion, John Cena.

00:35:43John Cena won the five nominees for Kurt Angle's Great American Award here tonight.

00:35:48And remember, if Kurt Angle pitched John Cena, for instance, to win that award,

00:35:53John Cena becomes the number one contender for the WWE Championship.

00:35:58I got that.

00:35:59Oh.

00:36:00Speaking of, there he is.

00:36:01There's the general manager, Kurt Angle.

00:36:03Set and tone, set and tone, set and tone.

00:36:06Now he's set and tone up in here to represent.

00:36:10Set and tone.

00:36:12Then throw them hands up and let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:15Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:16Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:33Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:34Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:35Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:36Let me hear you make some noise.

00:36:37This Great American Award, I'm going to win it tonight.

00:36:52It's a no-brainer.

00:36:54Even Kurt Angle can get it right.

00:36:59I'm the United States champ.

00:37:02I put on a demonstration.

00:37:04I beat two Italians last week to get this nomination.

00:37:11Rene Dupree was ringside with one of his poodle mutts.

00:37:18So I punked out a French dude and hit his with my nuts.

00:37:25Well, that's Rene Dupree's dog, Fifi, Cena's talking about.

00:37:30Right, right.

00:37:34Rene Dupree's dog, Rene Dupree's dog, Rene Dupree's dog, Rene Dupree's dog, Rene Dupree's dog.

00:37:39So whoever I'm fighting tonight, I got a word of advice, man.

00:37:45I be slamming cats with style just like I was the Iceman.

00:37:50I got a little something to say to the rest of the nominees.

00:38:01Don't get choked up when you lose.

00:38:06Get choked up on these.

00:38:08Well, there's only one John Cena.

00:38:14But nonetheless, another opportunity here for John Cena to impress the judge for this great American award.

00:38:21Kurt Angle, the general manager, scouting, taking some final notes here tonight.

00:38:25I noticed that in that rap, John Cena had a little comment about Kurt Angle.

00:38:29That's not too smart, in my opinion, if you're John Cena, say something bad about that.

00:38:32John Cena, he's got his own thing.

00:38:34There's Danny Basham, nice takedown of John Cena.

00:38:37Big matchup for Danny Basham, his non-title matchup.

00:38:41I never see it the first time for me right here on SmackDown.

00:38:44I think Doug and Danny are actually donning, wearing for long tights.

00:38:48I've never seen that.

00:38:48They've worn for long tights for the last two weeks.

00:38:51I'm not usually looking at their lower extremities, Cole.

00:38:54And Danny Basham shot to the ribs of John Cena.

00:38:57And Danny Basham has taken it to Cena in this matchup.

00:39:01And this is an odd, in one respect, to see Danny Basham in a singles matchup.

00:39:06Well, yeah, because he's usually a tag team wrestler.

00:39:08Right.

00:39:08Good point.

00:39:09Former tag team champion.

00:39:10Well, yes, thanks for pointing out the obvious.

00:39:11Maybe you should stop worrying about Velourne.

00:39:13You're worried about calling the action.

00:39:15Well, look at Cena.

00:39:16Hook of the leg.

00:39:17And look at Danny Basham, grab the bottom rope, forcing the break.

00:39:20Oh, and a tip to the eye, not a clean break.

00:39:23Well, look at this.

00:39:24Oh, wait a minute.

00:39:25The Basham's just switched.

00:39:26Doug Basham isn't the man.

00:39:29He's not even involved in the matchup.

00:39:30Well, Danny, well, who's in the eye?

00:39:32It's like a handicap match.

00:39:33And John Cena, look at, he just kicked Doug out of the ring.

00:39:36Well, you can't blame Cena.

00:39:37He don't care.

00:39:38And now bounces Danny Basham off the barricade.

00:39:41I guess Danny didn't blind Cena enough for him to impair his vision on who put you back to the room.

00:39:46Danny back into the ring, John Cena back into the ring as well.

00:39:48And look at Doug Basham on the apron.

00:39:50And look at from behind, Doug Basham causing the distraction.

00:39:53And Danny with the attack from behind.

00:39:55Perfect strategy by Doug and Danny Basham right there.

00:39:57Show him what's up.

00:39:58And now Danny Basham taking advantage of John Cena who was distracted.

00:40:03John Cena's head bouncing off the turnbuckle.

00:40:05And now Danny Basham with the kicks to the gut of the United States Champion.

00:40:09And look at Danny just stomping on Cena like Cena owed him money or something.

00:40:14John Cena back to his feet.

00:40:17Another forearm to the side of the head of John Cena.

00:40:21Cena's hurting and that's reversal or reversal.

00:40:23Look, Danny Basham up over the top.

00:40:26Stubbs assaults in foot, but watch out.

00:40:28Heads up.

00:40:28Doug Basham closed on and knocked Doug Basham down.

00:40:31Right hand to Danny.

00:40:32Here comes Cena off the rope.

00:40:33Whoa, whoa.

00:40:35John Cena's shoulder knocked down.

00:40:37You're flying Catboy big time closed on by the doctor of fucking knowledge.

00:40:40United States champions roll it, bash him off the rope, shot to the midsection.

00:40:44Here comes John Cena, that's the pullback, ladies and gentlemen.

00:40:47Should be able to slow forward, but I got it.

00:40:50Can't see me.

00:40:53You know what time it is, baby?

00:40:54Five, double, double, double.

00:40:56Right hand to the forehead of Danny Basham.

00:41:00And Cena's gonna open it up.

00:41:02Open it up big time, right here at San Enco.

00:41:06John Cena.

00:41:07Uh-oh.

00:41:08Look out.

00:41:09It's new time, my man.

00:41:11A-oh.

00:41:13But a big, big, big, big, big.

00:41:15Hook of the leg.

00:41:16Two, three, big.

00:41:16United States champions roll it.

00:41:19Third Angle's gotta be impressed with that.

00:41:26See that victory for Cena.

00:41:28Here's the winner of the United States Champion, John Cena.

00:41:33And there's the general manager taking notes.

00:41:36Well, he seems to be a bit impressed.

00:41:38Well, you gotta be.

00:41:39Will John Cena be the great American award winner tonight?

00:41:43Will John Cena become the number one contender for the WWE Championship?

00:41:49And remains to be seen.

00:41:50That was a nice victory for John Cena right here.

00:41:53Ladies and gentlemen, coming up next, for the first time on SmackDown, the former Raw Tag Team Champion together again.

00:42:01Booker T and RBD against Big Show and Charlie Hunt, a huge tag team matchup next on SmackDown.

00:42:09This is SmackDown.

00:42:13This is SmackDown!

00:42:15For the first time on SmackDown, it's RBD and Booker T. teamin' a together.

00:42:25The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall, making it a weight of the rain, a combined weight of 486 pounds, Hooker T and Rob Van Dam!

00:42:40And Paulie Smackdown fans seem a little confused, they want to champ Rob Van Dam but they don't know if they can't fucking beat him out!

00:42:48A great point, Rob Van Dam documented pretty well in the Smackdown, Hooker T, well you heard him earlier tonight, he wants to be on Raw, he doesn't like it here, Paul Smackdown the minor leagues!

00:43:00Taking his way to the lane from Edmond, Oklahoma, weighing in at 241 pounds, Charlie Hunt!

00:43:08Charlie Hunt very intense tonight, potential great American winner here on Smackdown, and back to this matchup, three of, I should say three of the five nominees involved in this tag team matchup tonight, including this man!

00:43:22Oh!

00:43:24And his partner, weighing in at 500 pounds, The Big Show!

00:43:31I know Van Dam is looking to be a former World Tag Team Champion, but I'll tell you what, I like Charlie Hunt to walk to here, I wouldn't mind having a partner with 500 pounds named The Big Show!

00:43:41And seven foot tall to say the least, to The Big Show and Charlie Hunt to meet the former Raw, the former World Tag Team Champion, R.B.D. and Booker T here tonight!

00:43:52See right there, Big Show staring a hole through Booker T pretty hard!

00:43:57Booker has not made many friends in the Smackdown Watchmen, I can tell you that!

00:44:01Booker T, Big Show, Charlie Haas, last opportunity to impress the general manager Kurt Angle tonight, who will pick one of his, he will pick the Great American Award winner here tonight on Smackdown!

00:44:12Kurt Angle's in the back in his office watching these matches that we saw earlier with that clipboard!

00:44:16This is an interesting matchup, Charlie Haas and Rob Van Dam.

00:44:19Last week, Charlie Haas defeated Rob Van Dam to gain the Great American Award nominee.

00:44:24They were both counted out of the ring, but Kurt Angle gave the match to Charlie Haas on points!

00:44:29Give me a break!

00:44:30Well, I applaud that!

00:44:31What's wrong with that?

00:44:32Cuz it's the WWE, not amateur wrestling!

00:44:34Right here, go for a side headlock, Charlie Haas.

00:44:37You don't wanna try and trade holds with Haas.

00:44:39Have a wrestler, nice top wristlock reversal.

00:44:41Hey, RBD's first right here on SmackDown owns a victory over Charlie Haas.

00:44:46Kurt's point with the point system.

00:44:48He said, you need winners and losers, Cole.

00:44:49You know, that's what's about, winning and losing.

00:44:51I thought the match was pretty even in my book.

00:44:54RBD, this with a big kick, and Charlie Haas with a straight right hand.

00:44:58Nice punch right to the face.

00:45:00Booker getting out of dodge there.

00:45:02And Booker D off the apron.

00:45:04Charlie Haas!

00:45:06Look at this!

00:45:07He's gonna get a kick!

00:45:08And a kick out by Charlie Haas.

00:45:10Spinning leg ladder, you gotta be kick!

00:45:12Wait a minute, Charlie Haas moves RBD in a kick out.

00:45:17Well, we'll be able to book a tee if it's knocked off the apron by Charlie Haas.

00:45:21Booker grabbed his arm.

00:45:22Wait, wait, what did he knock out?

00:45:23Booker grabbed his arm.

00:45:24Booker grabbed his arm.

00:45:25Booker grabbed his arm.

00:45:26And even when Rob Van Dam walks into that side, 22, 5E3 of the Big Show.

00:45:32I'll tell you what, Rob Van Dam may be Mr. Percy Knight, but he needs help real quick.

00:45:37I'll tell you what, I'm not a big Big Show fan but I'll be honest with you.

00:45:41Shoulders down, Rob Van Dam kicks out.

00:45:44If Kurt Angle named Big Show the Great American Award winner here tonight, I don't think I'd argue with him.

00:45:48If that's the case, Angle better get a bigger trophy.

00:45:52You ever been hit by that shot by the Big Show?

00:45:55No, I threw it around with a man and I got lucky and then I got chopped.

00:45:58Here's the general manager Kurt Angle taking notes again.

00:46:01Three or five nominees for the Great American Award involved in this matchup.

00:46:05Big Show tags off to Charlie Haas.

00:46:07I think Big Show broke Charlie Haas' hand with that tag.

00:46:09Charlie Haas very intense here tonight.

00:46:11Getting paranoid earlier on.

00:46:13So paranoid grabbing the general manager by the lapels.

00:46:16He's so anxious.

00:46:17He's so anxious.

00:46:18He wants to push.

00:46:19Big elbow to the side of the head.

00:46:21Rob Van Dam, second row kick to the face of Charlie Haas.

00:46:26In my opinion, I mean not right now, but Charlie Haas is making fun.

00:46:29What's this?

00:46:30Here's Booker T.

00:46:31I have no idea how it's Booker.

00:46:33Well, there's Booker.

00:46:34He's in the face with the Big Show.

00:46:35Look at this, buddy.

00:46:36Oh, wow.

00:46:37Charlie Haas.

00:46:38That's a nice people.

00:46:39Look at Charlie Haas.

00:46:40Charlie Haas hammering away in RBD.

00:46:43Booker T's trying to want to make his back, I guess.

00:46:47Booker T and Big Show trash talking each other.

00:46:51Meanwhile, Charlie Haas is having his way with Van Dam.

00:46:54Rob Van Dam isolated from Booker T in the wrong corner here.

00:46:58And here comes the Big Man.

00:46:59Yes, you are in the wrong corner right now, Van Dam.

00:47:02Van Dam's been taking a lot of pressure for a few minutes already.

00:47:05Rob Van Dam needs to make a tag.

00:47:07Desperate.

00:47:08Uh-oh.

00:47:09Big Show.

00:47:10This is not.

00:47:11Rob Van Dam over his head.

00:47:12Oh, my God.

00:47:14Van Dam's up in the legs.

00:47:16Rob Van Dam falling nearly 10 feet to the mat below.

00:47:20That's a seven-footer lifting you up over your head and dropping you down like a ton of bricks.

00:47:24Oh!

00:47:25That's 500 pounds driven into the ribcage, the gut of Rob Van Dam.

00:47:30Well, Van Dam's in tremendous condition, and hopefully, he don't have broken ribs to go, but his good physique.

00:47:36He's gotta have broken ribs or maybe a bruise starter or something.

00:47:39Charlie Haas probably blowing the back of the neck of Rob Van Dam.

00:47:43Charlie Haas and Big Show making pigment tags, keeping each other fresh.

00:47:46Rob Van Dam shot to the mouth.

00:47:48Charlie Haas.

00:47:49Well, you don't call.

00:47:50Kurt, oh!

00:47:51Kurt Hanger's gotta be impressed with both Haas and Big Show.

00:47:54Of course he does.

00:47:55He hasn't had the opportunity to take a look at Booker T.

00:47:57Yeah, well, if Booker gets in the ring, maybe Kurt will be impressed with Bookman.

00:48:00Here we go.

00:48:01Come on, drop.

00:48:02Wait a minute.

00:48:03Whoa, whoa, whoa!

00:48:06Booker T.

00:48:07Oh, come on.

00:48:08Where the hell's he going?

00:48:09Well, that's not cool.

00:48:10You made a commitment to be in a match.

00:48:13Is Booker T walking out at RBD?

00:48:18Booker T is taking this to a whole new level.

00:48:22Van Dam's in trouble now, big time.

00:48:24Well, Booker T just said, I told you I didn't wanna do this.

00:48:29And Charlie Haas is hammered away on Rob Van Dam, who's been left high and dry in a two-on-one situation.

00:48:36Van Dam is in trouble here.

00:48:39I cannot believe that Booker T just walked out on a former partner, Dev Team Championship partner.

00:48:46Rob Van Dam.

00:48:47Quite possibly the only friend that Booker had here on SmackDown.

00:48:50Booker's comments.

00:48:52What's Van Dam?

00:48:53I don't know what's going on now with that, but-

00:48:55Well, Charlie Haas continues the bear hunt.

00:48:57Rob Van Dam's in trouble, trying to get out of this predicament center of the ring.

00:49:00Plumbing blow in the back of the neck and another one.

00:49:02Charlie Haas plugged down to one knee.

00:49:04Here comes Rob Van Dam.

00:49:05Yeah, but Charlie keeping that pressure on.

00:49:07Oh!

00:49:08The key to RBD is to get Charlie Haas in the ring and not bring in the giant.

00:49:12That's a great, very good point.

00:49:14And can Van Dam do that?

00:49:16That's the question.

00:49:17There's nobody in the corner.

00:49:18But can you imagine if Rob Van Dam can knock off these two great American nominees here tonight?

00:49:23Rob Van Dam still shaking his head.

00:49:24Can't believe his partner walked down on him.

00:49:26I can imagine a tooth fairy coming to my house, too, Cole.

00:49:29That's not gonna happen.

00:49:30Rob Van Dam, a galleon effort.

00:49:32Big right hand.

00:49:33A must-fitting kick to Charlie Haas.

00:49:35Can Rob Van Dam do it here?

00:49:36Look at this.

00:49:38Oh, wow!

00:49:39Can I get to the sternum?

00:49:40That front flip, I mean, he might do it!

00:49:42Come on, Rob, get him!

00:49:43He might do it!

00:49:44Come on, Rob, get him!

00:49:45Two!

00:49:46And a kick out by Charlie Haas.

00:49:48Don't quit.

00:49:49I'm telling you, tons of intestinal fortitude.

00:49:51And Rob Van Dam.

00:49:52Well, Rob Van Dam in a battle here for survival.

00:49:55It's a matter of time though, Cole.

00:49:57I'm telling you, he looks good now.

00:49:58He's real good now.

00:49:59Charlie, how are you doing?

00:50:00Charlie, how are you doing?

00:50:01Charlie, how are you doing?

00:50:02Charlie, how are you doing?

00:50:03Rob Van Dam, how the hell is he doing this?

00:50:05Rob Van Dam.

00:50:06Uh-oh.

00:50:07And a kick to Big Show.

00:50:08Uh-oh.

00:50:09The Big Show off the apron.

00:50:10Rob Van Dam, top up.

00:50:11Come on, RBD.

00:50:12Does the Van Dam feel for you?

00:50:14Five-star.

00:50:15Frog Splash connects.

00:50:17Did the Van Dam do it?

00:50:18Well, that's the thing.

00:50:19At what wrist arm, what cost did Van Dam do that frog splash?

00:50:24Rob Van Dam crawling.

00:50:25He's gonna get it, Cole.

00:50:26He's gonna get it, Cole.

00:50:27Uh-oh.

00:50:28Uh-oh.

00:50:29Uh-oh.

00:50:30Look out, he's not even legal.

00:50:31The end is near.

00:50:32Jokeslam.

00:50:33Big Show wasn't even the legal man.

00:50:36Get him out of the damn ring.

00:50:38Well, that's what you get when you kick the Big Show.

00:50:40And now Charlie Haas crawling into the cover.

00:50:43Look at this.

00:50:44Hook of the leg.

00:50:45Two, three.

00:50:46Charlie Haas and Big Show defeat RBD.

00:50:51Here are your winners, Charlie Haas and the Big Show.

00:50:56And Charlie Haas celebrating like he won the damn lottery.

00:50:59Big Show did the damage.

00:51:00Don't matter.

00:51:01I mean, nope.

00:51:02And RBD's partner walked out on him.

00:51:05It's a team between, but Kurt Angle's gotta be impressed with Charlie Haas getting that

00:51:09victory.

00:51:10Even though both men were all big show and Haas.

00:51:13Well, Big Show wasn't impressed with the reaction of Charlie Haas.

00:51:17But what a galleon effort by Rob Van Dam.

00:51:20But will one of these two men, Charlie Haas with the Big Show, be named the Great American

00:51:25and become number one contender for the title here tonight?

00:51:28Well, let's take another look at the shocking actions here of Booker T.

00:51:33I'm telling you, Cole, I didn't think Booker.

00:51:37I mean, Van Damme's one of the only guys that Booker was friends with here on SmackDown.

00:51:43Booker T just walked out on his partner plain and simple.

00:51:46Wow.

00:51:47We are back on SmackDown.

00:51:50Strange story unfolding moments ago.

00:51:52Booker T showing his true colors, walking out on his tag team partner, Rob Van Damme.

00:51:57One of the worst things you can do to somebody that thinks you has your back.

00:52:00And Van Damme told Booker earlier.

00:52:02I got your back, but obviously Booker did not have Van Damme's.

00:52:05And by leaving Rob Van Damme, this was the result.

00:52:08Look at this impact.

00:52:10God!

00:52:11A chokeslam for the Big Show.

00:52:14What?

00:52:19I didn't know that was gonna happen.

00:52:22I didn't know Booker T was gonna walk out on you.

00:52:28What kind of general manager do you think I am?

00:52:31Listen, listen, all right, I know what you want.

00:52:36Next week on SmackDown, Booker T versus RVD.

00:52:44Wow.

00:52:45Wow.

00:52:46Can you believe it?

00:52:50Next week in Indianapolis, Canseco Fieldhouse better back down the hatches.

00:52:56Rob Van Damme versus Booker T.

00:52:59I'm feeling that!

00:53:01Fifi!

00:53:02The following contest is scheduled for one fall.

00:53:05Being accompanied to the ring by his pet, French Poodle, Fifi, from Paris, France,

00:53:12weighing in at 263 pounds, Rene Dupree.

00:53:18I can tell you, this dog's amazing, this Fifi.

00:53:21In the last week, Fifi's legs were falling.

00:53:23Remember the dog's legs were falling?

00:53:24Yeah.

00:53:25Had the pig skin and all.

00:53:26This dog's like a chia pet.

00:53:27Don't believe it, like an albino chia pet.

00:53:29Well, nonetheless, as Rene Dupree gets set for action, John Cena has been a one-man welcoming

00:53:36committee since Rene Dupree came to SmackDown from Raw.

00:53:41Check this out.

00:53:42Before y'all choke on each other, you can choke on these.

00:53:49Well, I tell you what, John Cena's treatment up for Rene Dupree since Rene's got to SmackDown

00:53:55has not been a nice one.

00:53:56It's not been a nice one.

00:53:57I'm telling you.

00:53:58Let's see this beef with Dupree.

00:54:00That's Fifi, poor Fifi.

00:54:02Well, Rene was so angry at John Cena last week, and come on, it's just a dog, man.

00:54:08It's the love of his life.

00:54:09What are you talking about?

00:54:10What are you talking about?

00:54:11Huh?

00:54:12And from Miami, Florida, weighing in at 241 pounds, Orlando Jordan.

00:54:19Orlando Jordan, man.

00:54:21Young man's in great shape.

00:54:23Young lion right here.

00:54:24Loads of potential.

00:54:25Big upside.

00:54:26Gonna be a tough matchup for Rene Dupree.

00:54:29Rene Dupree, who's undefeated here on SmackDown since coming over from Raw, the 20-year-old,

00:54:34the self-professed French Phenom.

00:54:37Well, I'll tell you, he's a French Phenom for a reason.

00:54:40He beat Rene Dupree.

00:54:41You know, I'm not big on the French guys.

00:54:43I don't have a lot of French friends.

00:54:44I like French fries, though.

00:54:45But I like this Rene Dupree.

00:54:47So Rene Dupree, Orlando Jordan, one-on-one here tonight on SmackDown.

00:54:53And Rene Dupree going way to work on Orlando Jordan.

00:54:57You see how quick Dupree shifted gears.

00:55:01How quick?

00:55:02He picked up the pace and brought that attention.

00:55:04And now the right-hands from Dupree.

00:55:06First pick of the draft lottery a couple of weeks back from Raw here on SmackDown.

00:55:11And Dupree is all about business here tonight.

00:55:14For a guy with a furry white dog, a pool, he's pretty tough.

00:55:17He's gotta be tough.

00:55:18Of course, the USA champs begin here in San Antonio.

00:55:22Orlando Jordan ripped in the corner.

00:55:24Look at this.

00:55:27Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.

00:55:28Jokers down, and Dupree just kicked out.

00:55:31Swoopa, look at it.

00:55:33Big time spine busted and modified by the French Phenom.

00:55:37I like that moniker.

00:55:38Look at this kid.

00:55:39Look at the physique on this dude.

00:55:41I'm a French guy.

00:55:42I'm a French man.

00:55:43Here's the dance.

00:55:44I'm so impressed.

00:55:45I get chills down my spine when he hops around.

00:55:48You get chills down your spine when a man does a dance in the ring.

00:55:51Hell yeah, you've gotta have a chillin' to do that.

00:55:53What are you kidding me?

00:55:54Wow!

00:55:55Look at that powerbomb hook of the leg.

00:55:57Show him down.

00:55:58Good night, Dupree wins.

00:56:00French Phenom.

00:56:01Here's your winner, Rene Dupree.

00:56:06Well, let's take another look at the impressive Rene Dupree, Taz,

00:56:10as Dupree defeats Orlando Jordan here tonight.

00:56:13Yeah, this French Phenom, as we've been calling him,

00:56:17very impressive there.

00:56:19That sit-out driver, and boom, gets the victory,

00:56:21but how impressive call is this, my friend?

00:56:24Ladies and gentlemen, this is the French.

00:56:26Take look.

00:56:27I'm a French guy.

00:56:28I love being French.

00:56:30Who is that?

00:56:32Oh, his, huh?

00:56:33Hey, it's Fiannau Long.

00:56:35He sure looked like an athlete in the shadow.

00:56:37Yeah, believe that.

00:56:38Come on.

00:56:39Theodore Long is set to be Spike Dunham here tonight on SmackDown.

00:56:45And who will be Kurt Angle's Great American Award winner?

00:56:48Who will become the number one contender for the WWE title?

00:56:52We'll find out tonight on SmackDown.

00:57:02You wanted to see me?

00:57:03Yeah.

00:57:04I want you to go find Eddie Guerrero and bring him directly to my office right now.

00:57:08You got it.

00:57:09Go.

00:57:13So the WWE Champion Eddie Guerrero sent some into the General Manager's Office.

00:57:17Kurt Angle later tonight gonna present the Great American Award winner.

00:57:20Now, remember last week on SmackDown, Kurt Angle told us,

00:57:22SmackDown fans, we want you to participate.

00:57:25Go to WWE.com to vote.

00:57:27The polls close this past Monday at midnight.

00:57:30Check out the landslide victory for John Cena.

00:57:33We're not kidding.

00:57:34John Cena had more votes than all the other nominees combined.

00:57:37Look at that.

00:57:38280,429.

00:57:40Wow.

00:57:41I voted, by the way.

00:57:42I'm sure you did.

00:57:43You know who I voted for?

00:57:44Who?

00:57:45It's on a need-to-know basis and you don't need to know.

00:57:48I can't tell you.

00:57:49Can't tell you.

00:57:50The polls closed at midnight this past Monday night.

00:57:52It allowed fans to watch Raw, of course, and then get set to vote

00:57:55for the Great American Award nominee member here on SmackDown.

00:57:58And speaking of Raw, what a great show from Houston, Texas.

00:58:01It's time now for the Raw Rebound.

00:58:10Randy Orton, say hello to my friend.

00:58:13I'm going to take Barbie.

00:58:16I'm going to teach you what it means to be hardcore.

00:58:21Hey!

00:58:22Oh, Jericho tripped Trish.

00:58:23What the hell?

00:58:24And they brought the draw.

00:58:25And Lita wins.

00:58:26Lita's going to backlash.

00:58:27We've got ourselves a visitor here.

00:58:28Hello, Eugene.

00:58:29And welcome to Raw.

00:58:30Hey!

00:58:31What are you doing?

00:58:32Oh, God!

00:58:33You referred to my victory as, well, a fluke.

00:58:36So what I decided to do was I'm going to win.

00:58:38I'm going to take Barbie.

00:58:39I'm going to take Barbie.

00:58:40I'm going to teach you what it means to be hardcore.

00:58:42So what I decided to do is come out here to challenge you to a rematch.

00:58:47After I beat you again, you can refer to me as Mr. Benjamin.

00:58:54Oh, Sheldon!

00:58:55No way!

00:58:56No way!

00:58:57Oh!

00:58:58And the count's at ten!

00:58:59The kid won!

00:59:00The kid won!

00:59:01Triple H just got his feet for the second week in a row!

00:59:05Evolution led by the game, stomping by hell out of Sheldon Benjamin.

00:59:11Chris Ben-Long, Shawn Michaels, Nick Foley.

00:59:13I'm going to teach you to defy my powers.

00:59:16Next week, you're going to team up with Sheldon Benjamin and base all four members of Evolution!

00:59:26In music!

00:59:27No way!

00:59:28No way!

00:59:29No way!

00:59:30No way!

00:59:31Easy.

00:59:32All right, guys.

00:59:33I want you guys to clean this up, get it ready for the presentation.

00:59:36Wow, man!

00:59:41Could you hold on a second, please?

00:59:43Hold on a second.

00:59:44Hey, man!

00:59:45Let them enjoy this trophy!

00:59:48I mean, check it out!

00:59:49What a good-looking trophy is it, huh?

00:59:52It's got the red, white, and blue colors, man.

00:59:54The little man standing like this, all straight in the middle.

00:59:57And check out the Eagles!

00:59:59Wow!

01:00:00What a lot of me!

01:00:01Let me ask you a question.

01:00:02What kind of Eagle is this?

01:00:04Is this a bald Eagle?

01:00:09Or, I mean, I don't know.

01:00:11Just get away from my trophy, okay?

01:00:13Why?

01:00:14Just stop touching it, all right?

01:00:15Guys, guys, come here.

01:00:17Take this out, clean- stop.

01:00:20Take this out and clean it up for the presentation, okay?

01:00:23Get it ready.

01:00:24You have to act that way, I said.

01:00:27It's not like I'm going to do anything to your trophy.

01:00:29Listen, listen.

01:00:30Prestigious, I mean-

01:00:31I brought you in here, okay?

01:00:33Yes.

01:00:34So when you're in here, listen to me.

01:00:35To you.

01:00:36I brought you in here for one specific reason.

01:00:38What's that?

01:00:39What's that reason, Kurt?

01:00:40Tell me.

01:00:41I know how much you like to defend the WWE title here on SmackDown.

01:00:46That's right, Holmes, especially in San Antonio, Texas.

01:00:56And I know how much the fans here enjoy seeing the Tino Heat

01:01:01driving on his motorbike.

01:01:03Give me a little shimmy, man.

01:01:04I know you can do it.

01:01:05Come here.

01:01:06Shake the shoulders.

01:01:07Shake the shoulders, Kurt.

01:01:08It's funny, isn't it?

01:01:09Oh, man.

01:01:10Just-

01:01:11Well, I'll tell you something, Eddie.

01:01:12Tonight, that's not going to happen.

01:01:18What do you mean, that's not going to happen, is it?

01:01:20Hey, it's not personal, Eddie.

01:01:22It's business.

01:01:23It's business.

01:01:25Yeah, Eddie, I got a job to do.

01:01:28And my job tonight is to present the Kurt Angle Great American Award to the winner in that ring.

01:01:35And you know something, Eddie?

01:01:37You don't qualify.

01:01:39I don't qualify?

01:01:40What do you mean I don't qualify?

01:01:41Hold on a second, okay?

01:01:42You're the champion.

01:01:43It goes to the number one contender.

01:01:45Oh, and another thing, Eddie.

01:01:49You have the night off.

01:01:51Goodbye.

01:01:52The night off?

01:01:54Toodaloo.

01:01:55Auf Wiedersehen.

01:01:57And get out of my office.

01:02:01And while you're at it, get out of the arena.

01:02:03And while you're at that, get out of the city.

01:02:05You have the night off, Eddie.

01:02:07See you later.

01:02:16Well, that's not right.

01:02:17The champion gets the night off, but nonetheless, here comes Spike Dudley.

01:02:20Yeah, yeah.

01:02:21And coming up next.

01:02:22It's gonna be a fight, man.

01:02:23It's gonna be a fight.

01:02:24Spike needs Theodore Law next.

01:02:26Oh!

01:02:27Theodore Law.

01:02:28Oh, man.

01:02:29Check out this game.

01:02:30Well, he's going to a fight.

01:02:31He's preparing, my friend.

01:02:32Following cut to his single core.

01:02:33Left ball.

01:02:34Making his point in the ring.

01:02:35Theodore.

01:02:36Oh, whoa.

01:02:37There you go, baby.

01:02:38Thug it and thug it.

01:02:39That's it.

01:02:40Lead out, player.

01:02:41Back down next week.

01:02:42Theodore.

01:02:43Theodore.

01:02:44Theodore.

01:02:45Theodore.

01:02:46Theodore.

01:02:47Theodore.

01:02:48Theodore.

01:02:49Theodore.

01:02:50Theodore.

01:02:51Theodore.

01:02:52Theodore.

01:02:53Theodore.

01:02:54Theodore.

01:02:55Theodore.

01:02:56Theodore.

01:02:57Theodore.

01:02:58He's back down next week.

01:02:59Heads to Indianapolis, Indiana.

01:03:00Taz.

01:03:01What a huge matchup.

01:03:02Booker T versus R.B.D. in Indianapolis this week.

01:03:05I can't wait, Paul.

01:03:06I tell you.

01:03:07The Book Man.

01:03:08They've missed it Thursday night.

01:03:09They fly.

01:03:10And indeed.

01:03:11Off the chop, my friend.

01:03:12R.B.D.

01:03:13With a huge score to Santa.

01:03:15And weighing in at 150 pounds.

01:03:18Spike.

01:03:19Good for Spike Dudley.

01:03:20And you know what?

01:03:21Good for Spike Dudley.

01:03:22He has about as much as he wants to take from him.

01:03:24He wants the take from Theodore Long in the Comet Arts fight.

01:03:29You know what the R stands for in Theodore R. Long?

01:03:32What, wrong?

01:03:33What are you being wrong?

01:03:34No, not wrong.

01:03:36The R. Long suck the W.

01:03:37I know.

01:03:39Rock, like what?

01:03:41Will you stop?

01:03:42It's not a box of that.

01:03:44Nobody's got a box of that.

01:03:45Let me say something to you right now, gangster.

01:03:47Now, before I lay this thugging and bugging down on you, player,

01:03:50I think the best thing for you to do is to get yourself a warm-up.

01:03:54You feel me?

01:03:55Now, I got just a man for you.

01:03:57One of the baddest Italians here in the WWE.

01:04:00A man that's untouchable.

01:04:02Johnny DeBoer.

01:04:03You people stand up and show your love for Johnny DeBoer.

01:04:06Yeah, a warm-up match.

01:04:08Johnny DeBoer's a paisan.

01:04:10Come on.

01:04:11It's a warm-up match.

01:04:12I mean, you know, a warm-up match.

01:04:14What's wrong with having a warm-up match?

01:04:15I mean, he and R. Long wants to run his mouth out there in the back.

01:04:20Why does he just take a look at Spike Dudley?

01:04:22Spike Dudley wastes a little time.

01:04:24Oh, my God.

01:04:25There's the spike.

01:04:27Well, yeah, Spike Dudley giving up about 100 pounds or so here.

01:04:30And a right hand by Johnny DeBoer, Stan Foley, and the FBI.

01:04:33I don't know.

01:04:34Maybe, maybe, Stan Foley's one of the...

01:04:36Sicily area, you know, he grew up with him in New York.

01:04:40I'm saying, maybe that's how he won't lose him.

01:04:42Look at this.

01:04:44Spike Dudley with the exclamation point from the bow.

01:04:48This is no warm-up match.

01:04:49I'm telling you, look at this.

01:04:51Look at the cover, Spike grabs the bottom rope.

01:04:52You gotta love the guts of this 150 pound, Spike Dudley.

01:04:56Gotta love the power of Johnny DeBoer, man.

01:04:58Check this height out.

01:04:59Look at that, almost hitting Dallas.

01:05:02Shulpers are down, and Spike Dudley kicked out before the count of three.

01:05:05I don't know how Spike Dudley's still going here.

01:05:08Not Budley, Dudley.

01:05:09I understand that.

01:05:11Spike's in trouble.

01:05:13Spike's in trouble.

01:05:13He's in the ring of one of SmackDown's strongest, powerful Pau Pops is the strongest guy maybe on SmackDown.

01:05:19Spike can't rubble off his suplex.

01:05:21Lance high and hard on the back of his neck.

01:05:24I'm not taking nothing on Spike Dudley.

01:05:27He's a tough dude.

01:05:28Cover, hook of the leg, and Spike kicked out again.

01:05:30Everybody knows Spike, no quitting Spike.

01:05:33I was former tag champs with Spike.

01:05:35He's a tough competitor.

01:05:36But Johnny DeBoer's just too powerful going out of his bag.

01:05:39Spike almost won the Cruiserweight Championship, his first night here on SmackDown.

01:05:43In fact, last week, Spike pinned the Cruiserweight champ in a tag match.

01:05:46Yeah, well, Johnny DeBoer is not a Cruiserweight by any means.

01:05:49No knock on a Cruiserweight, but right there, man, Theodore Arlong watching on.

01:05:54But what Johnny DeBoer is tonight is a iron gun for Theodore Arlong.

01:05:57And Spike is driven into the corner by the Bull.

01:06:01Johnny DeBoer's just trying to take the spinal cord out of Spike Dudley's back.

01:06:04Look at this, Spike Dudley.

01:06:05Johnny DeBoer's in trouble.

01:06:07Spike Dudley trying to get him over, Kenny.

01:06:08And Spike Dudley rolls out of the way.

01:06:10Bull with the right hand of the man.

01:06:11Oh, the witness there of Spike with the Bulls.

01:06:14Man, boom!

01:06:15Shoulder first in a steel post.

01:06:17Wow.

01:06:18Spike Dudley taking it, look at this!

01:06:19Spike Dudley, Dudley dog connects!

01:06:22Can Spike do it?

01:06:24Spike cover!

01:06:25Look at this, Hook's done again!

01:06:26Spike has pinned the ball!

01:06:28Pulling it up, shit!

01:06:30Wow!

01:06:30Here's going Spike Dudley!

01:06:33Okay, Theodore Arlong, the warm-up match is over with!

01:06:37Well, let's see right there, Theodore Arlong!

01:06:40Yeah, you better get the gloves on!

01:06:41I'm just getting his gloves on, I'm just getting him.

01:06:43Give the man a chance!

01:06:44Yeah, you better get a trainer in the corner and call for the medical team!

01:06:47Don't worry about it, Theodore Arlong could go!

01:06:50Oh, you got a little, he's trying to pull him.

01:06:52Spike Dudley's a buck fifty-seven, Theodore Arlong's got a fight away!

01:06:56Who the hell is that?

01:06:57Who is that?

01:06:58A clubby blow from behind!

01:07:00Who is that?

01:07:01This kid is, is that a-

01:07:03Spike Dudley in the corner, and I think that's Mark Jindraff!

01:07:05My God!

01:07:06Wow!

01:07:08That's the kid who was in the draft line-

01:07:10What are they bucking on this kid?

01:07:11He's got the wall!

01:07:13What's this?

01:07:14Hey!

01:07:15Well, there you go!

01:07:16The boots, the back of the head!

01:07:19Look at the physique on this dude!

01:07:23Wow, Cole!

01:07:25I think, yeah, I think Theodore Arlong found this guy, man!

01:07:29That's the man with the body of Adonis, the face that could be on the cover of GQ!

01:07:35Wow!

01:07:36A shit-crash!

01:07:37Yeah, look at him!

01:07:40Check out the power of Mark Jindraff!

01:07:43Look, look at him!

01:07:44Yeah, he's hugging him, hugging him, hugging him now, hugging him!

01:07:47That kid's got the boots, my friend!

01:07:50Mark Jindraff, he is on, he is on Arlong, pulling out a full chipper here!

01:07:55What's possible?

01:07:56A diamond in the wrong leader, Arlong may be onto something!

01:08:01Here's a SmackDown!

01:08:02Believe that player!

01:08:04Well, coming up next, who will win Kurt Angle's Great American Award?

01:08:08Who will become the number one contender for the title?

01:08:11The presentation is next!

01:08:14Peter Arlong has apparently found his man moments ago as Spike Dudley was ready

01:08:21to take out Mr. Long, Mark Jindraff, from out of nowhere, and what an impression!

01:08:27Yeah, this dude, man, check this move out, look at this!

01:08:29I don't know what Jindraff calls that, but it's effective, that's what's wrong.

01:08:33And then, right here, I love my favorite part, hug it, hug it, and bug it, baby!

01:08:39This is the Long's new man, Long Jindraff.

01:08:42Well, that was tonight on SmackDown, but ladies and gentlemen, coming up next week,

01:08:46from Continental Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, SmackDown!

01:08:50RBD with a score to settle, versus his former Buddy Booker team!

01:08:56Former Buddy, former Tank Team partner as a championship, but now here comes General Manager!

01:09:02I'm excited, baby!

01:09:03Kurt Angle!

01:09:04There's the man!

01:09:08Kurt Angle, the General Manager, here on SmackDown!

01:09:16Ladies and gentlemen, the General Manager on SmackDown, Kurt Angle!

01:09:24And this is the moment of truth!

01:09:26Presentation time!

01:09:28Who will be the great American nominee?

01:09:30Who will be the number one contender for the WWE title?

01:09:34Kurt Angle's got a very tough decision to make!

01:09:37The nominees are off the charts, look phenomenal tonight!

01:09:41Who's Kurt gonna pick?

01:09:42Well, it's a big decision for the General Manager!

01:09:45Ladies and gentlemen, the moment we've all been waiting for!

01:09:53Last week, I began a journey to find a great American.

01:10:00And I narrowed the field down to five SmackDown superstars this week.

01:10:08And I would like to introduce you to the five nominees for the Kurt Angle Great American Award,

01:10:16beginning with John Cena!

01:10:23Oh yeah, the doctor!

01:10:25Well, here come the five finalists, the five nominees!

01:10:28John Cena, I'll tell you, big win over the AKI, the handicap matchup, big win tonight!

01:10:33He's gonna press the hustle, the top four dip!

01:10:36Well, John Cena is the United States Champion, and as you point out,

01:10:39all the SmackDown Fist up to meet that top-

01:10:42Hold it to Cena!

01:10:43And if you listen to the crowd, I think John Cena's the favorite here tonight at San Antonio!

01:10:48Well, what's that?

01:10:50D's nuts!

01:10:52Next, Charlie Haas!

01:10:55It's Haas now!

01:10:58Charlie Haas, the perception has been in it!

01:11:04Charlie Haas has been Kurt Angle's boy, but he did win a big tag team matchup tonight!

01:11:09After the team walked out on RBD!

01:11:11Yes, this is true, and Charlie Haas, a former pupil of Angle.

01:11:15Nice handshake, they're showing respect.

01:11:18And now, Booker T!

01:11:21Can you dig it, sucker?

01:11:23Well, not too many people's favorite here, my friend!

01:11:25Well, next week on SmackDown, Booker T takes on RBD,

01:11:29the man who Booker T turned his back on here tonight in a tag team matchup.

01:11:34In my estimation, not only a season.

01:11:37No, I didn't, I didn't really, I wasn't feeling, I wasn't thinking.

01:11:40I wasn't appreciating what Booker T did to his partner earlier off,

01:11:44and they're walking out of, you don't do that, that wasn't cool.

01:11:47I don't think so either.

01:11:49Well, that's good.

01:11:50Another handshake, show him respect.

01:11:51Well, at least Booker respect's one man.

01:11:53And next, The Big Show!

01:11:55Big Man!

01:11:58The Big Show!

01:12:01The Big Show dominating earlier on tonight in a tag team matchup,

01:12:05a big win over Rikishi last week.

01:12:08I'll tell you, Big Show has been a big statement to be a Great American Award winner.

01:12:12Everything The Big Show does is big.

01:12:14The Big Show's the former WWE Champion,

01:12:17quite possibly to be the Great American Award winner, and the number one contestant.

01:12:21Well, Big Show!

01:12:23Big E, man!

01:12:24Big Show of course, if he won, would be the first Great American Award winner,

01:12:28and I dare say probably will be the biggest Great American Award winner ever.

01:12:33Hold on, you need a bigger trophy.

01:12:35I love a show of respect.

01:12:36Good.

01:12:37And finally, John Bradshaw Layfield.

01:12:42Oh, come on.

01:12:43Yeah, JBL, cuz I'm his friend.

01:12:45JBL, cuz I'm his friend, I can call him that, bro.

01:12:47You're not his friend.

01:12:48Yes, I am.

01:12:49Hey, I did lunch with Bradshaw last week.

01:12:51Went to Smith Polinsky's, one of the finest steak houses in New York City.

01:12:55I know where it is.

01:12:56No, he gave me stock tips, I had steak tips.

01:12:58Look, there's the men.

01:13:00Well, Kurt Angle names his great American, and the number one contender for the WWE title next.

01:13:05Well, the fans chanting for John Cena.

01:13:17Gentlemen, I know that everyone is filled with anticipation on who will win.

01:13:24the Kurt Angle Great American Award, and thus, become the number one contender for the WWE title.

01:13:34In fact, I asked you, the fans, to participate in the selection process by voting at WWE.com all week long.

01:13:47And I have to say, you people wanted to be heard.

01:13:54There were a massive amount of votes.

01:13:59And I have to say that the audience vote was a landslide for one man.

01:14:14John Cena.

01:14:15John Cena.

01:14:16John Cena.

01:14:25And therefore, the winner of the Kurt Angle Great American Award goes to-

01:14:31Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt, Kurt.

01:14:34Listen.

01:14:35Wait wait.

01:14:36I promise these people I guarantee them that I would prove that I deserve this award.

01:14:42I was a busy man last night, and I promise if you'll just give me a second,

01:14:46you two will see that I deserve this award more than anyone else that is up here.

01:14:53If the producer can please roll the footage up there that we filmed last night, please.

01:15:01I'm here in the United States side of the Texas-Mexico border.

01:15:06I'm here to prove a point.

01:15:08You see, this is our most porous part of our entire border.

01:15:12It's basically uninhabited and unpatrolled.

01:15:16This is where hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants cross this border each and every year.

01:15:24Mexicans who come to our country and pay no taxes.

01:15:33I'm an American.

01:15:35I grew up in the state of Texas.

01:15:37I've made a fortune in this country that we call America,

01:15:40so I know what these type of people do to our economy.

01:15:45They take advantage of our health care system, our welfare system,

01:15:49and they send all their money back to Mexico

01:15:51and look to people like me to have to support people like them.

01:15:55It's like half of America.

01:15:58It's like half of the state of Texas.

01:16:00I know I grew up here.

01:16:03They're lazy.

01:16:04They look to government like its big brother and say,

01:16:07please give me a handout.

01:16:08It's why people like me who've made my own money have such outrageous taxes to pay for people.

01:16:16I told you.

01:16:19I told you it wouldn't be long.

01:16:21Now I'm going to prove my point.

01:16:23I'm going to prove my point.

01:16:26Right there.

01:16:27It's a whole herd of Mexicans.

01:16:30The government won't do anything about it.

01:16:32The I.S. won't either.

01:16:34Texas is too scared.

01:16:35Texas is a bunch of cowards.

01:16:37But you're in person.

01:16:38Stop right there.

01:16:39Stop right there.

01:16:39You hear me?

01:16:40Stop right there.

01:16:41Let me tell you.

01:16:41Okay, okay.

01:16:42You're in your back country.

01:16:43No, no, no.

01:16:44You got to want me to speak English.

01:16:46No, no, no.

01:16:47You got to speak English.

01:16:47No, no, no.

01:16:48This is the United States.

01:16:49Don't you speak that, brother?

01:16:50Get the Mexican state of those kids out of here and you get out of here.

01:16:53You go back to Mexico and you tell your Mexican friends,

01:16:57you tell your Mexican family that they better stay in Mexico.

01:17:00You tell everybody south of the border,

01:17:02they better stay south of the border

01:17:04because this side of the border,

01:17:06John Bradshaw-Layfield will be waiting.

01:17:20Well, then,

01:17:22the winner of the Kurt Angle Great American Award

01:17:26and thus the number one contender

01:17:28goes to John Bradshaw-Layfield.

01:17:33Oh, come on.

01:17:34He did it.

01:17:36He did what?

01:17:37Bradshaw, Great American nominee,

01:17:40number one contender.

01:17:41He did it.

01:17:41John Cena was outmoded everybody.

01:17:44I thought Kurt Angle was going to take that into consideration.

01:17:46Well, Angle did take into consideration

01:17:48and he considers,

01:17:49Angle does,

01:17:50JBL,

01:17:51John Bradshaw-Layfield.

01:17:52The Great American Award winner and the number one contender for WWE time.

01:17:57Well, Kurt Angle must have been really impressed with that video.

01:18:01I think so.

01:18:02I mean, Kurt kind of seemed like he swayed the way he went.

01:18:05Wow.

01:18:06So not only is JBL a financial analyst and radio talk show host,

01:18:10now JBL is a border patrol gentleman.

01:18:14Extremely, oh yeah, what's wrong with that?

01:18:15He's a true American.

01:18:16Come on.

01:18:17Now we're going to call JBL the Great American

01:18:19and number one contender.

01:18:21What I would like to do right now

01:18:26is to present

01:18:29the Kurt Angle

01:18:30Great American Award

01:18:33to you, JBL.

01:18:38Here it goes.

01:18:42What the hell?

01:18:45What is that?

01:18:46It's Eddie Guerrero.

01:18:47The WWE Champion.

01:18:49Eddie Guerrero, you damn Latino thief, I know you took my trophy.

01:19:02Now you bring it back, and you bring it back now.

01:19:05This is out of control.

01:19:09Come on.

01:19:12Eddie, I gave you the night off.

01:19:15Now I know you're back there.

01:19:17Hey, get your butt out of here right now.

01:19:23He was the last.

01:19:24Oh yeah.

01:19:26Well, here we go.

01:19:27You better bring that trophy, too.

01:19:29Well, last week,

01:19:30the champion destroyed Bradshaw's $1,000 hat.

01:19:34Oh, look at this.

01:19:35And there's the hell me.

01:19:36There it is right there.

01:19:37Some damn hood on him.

01:19:39He's got a metal and a hood on him.

01:19:41What is that about?

01:19:42Oh, well, Eddie Guerrero, in my mind,

01:19:44he's truly a great American.

01:19:46And Eddie Guerrero.

01:19:47He's a thief.

01:19:48What are you talking about?

01:19:49Come on, lighten up.

01:19:50As well, I'm very light,

01:19:52but the man is a thief.

01:19:54What is that like?

01:19:55To take the defecator of the trophy of Corona.

01:19:58And look at the smile on a Latino heat's face.

01:20:02The general manager gave the WWE Champion

01:20:04Eddie Guerrero a night off.

01:20:06Not only does he not leave the arena or the city,

01:20:08he steals the trophy,

01:20:10and that's okay.

01:20:10Oh, come on.

01:20:11He was just having a little fun at the expense of JBL.

01:20:14Oh, he's better not happy.

01:20:17This is not happy.

01:20:18Because Eddie Guerrero has stolen the spotlight of JBL here tonight.

01:20:24Well, he's going to bring us out.

01:20:25He's going to run.

01:20:26He better bring us out.

01:20:27Eddie's going to do the right thing.

01:20:28That's good.

01:20:30There you go, Eddie.

01:20:31See, Eddie, you're right.

01:20:31Eddie, you're right.

01:20:32Eddie was just trying to have some fun.

01:20:34No, wait, wait.

01:20:34No, Eddie, we going one way.

01:20:37Eddie, where you going, Eddie?

01:20:38What is Eddie here?

01:20:40He's going to bring it back.

01:20:44See, that's good.

01:20:45All right, Eddie, just a little fun.

01:20:50Eddie, you are not the great American.

01:20:53I am.

01:20:54Now give me my trophy back.

01:20:57You give us that trophy right now,

01:20:58or I will strip you with the WWE title.

01:21:02I'm the general manager.

01:21:04Eddie, you're right here.

01:21:05No, no, no.

01:21:05No, no, no, no.

01:21:06Eddie, Eddie, don't even start with me.

01:21:09You bring that in here.

01:21:11Bring it in here right now.

01:21:12Bring it.

01:21:13Hey, bring it.

01:21:15Check out what I found in the parking lot, home.

01:21:19See, he found it.

01:21:20Give me a quick.

01:21:22Found it.

01:21:24Hey, look.

01:21:25Take it easy, S.A.

01:21:26I can understand how distraught you are.

01:21:29I mean, this is a beautiful trophy.

01:21:33I mean, really, right?

01:21:35I mean, back up.

01:21:38Back up, S.A.

01:21:39Just relax, Holmes, man.

01:21:40I'm going to come give you your well-deserved award, okay?

01:21:44Take it easy, S.A.

01:21:51You're a disgrace, Eddie Guerrero.

01:21:56Calm down, S.A.

01:21:57Calm down, bro.

01:21:58I mean, this is something you can be very proud of.

01:22:19I mean, this is a beautiful trophy.

01:22:22I mean, what a beautiful ego.

01:22:25I would be extremely...

01:22:26Oh, what the hell?

01:22:27What are you doing?

01:22:30And you're breaking me.

01:22:31I can't...

01:22:32What are you doing, my trophy?

01:22:34Fire it.

01:22:38Here you go.

01:22:42Here you go.

01:22:44Here you go.

01:22:45Here you go.

01:22:47It's all right, Holmes.

01:22:48Eagles can fly with one wing.

01:22:52Oh, man.

01:22:54Trophy to the gun.

01:22:55What's up with that?

01:22:56Eddie going after Kurt Angle.

01:22:58JPL is head for higher ground.

01:23:01This ain't right here at all.

01:23:03Eddie Guerrero.

01:23:08I think the champion is still in the trap.

01:23:12Well, the champion will be careful not to get stripped of this championship by our general manager.

01:23:16The general manager is not happening.

01:23:19Eddie Guerrero is living.

01:23:22This crowd fully behind Eddie Guerrero.

01:23:24Look at this Latino, he knew it.

01:23:27I think they're trying to psych him up the people off to do something he shouldn't do.

01:23:31Eddie, don't be dumb here.

01:23:32The champion with a steel chair in hand.

01:23:34What the hell is Eddie gonna do with that?

01:23:36Kurt Angle is living.

01:23:37I don't think he's got it to sit down and take the load off.

01:23:40Eddie, don't do this.

01:23:42Eddie, the champion, no.

01:23:46What is that second place?

01:23:52Whoa, whoa, JPL, it's a great America to want, Eddie, don't do it.

01:23:58Eddie, it's not worth it, don't do it.

01:24:00And Leon Kurt, Kurt going for the title.

01:24:03Eddie, don't do it.

01:24:08Don't do it or you will pay.

01:24:11No, no, no, no.

01:24:12Oh my God.

01:24:13Eddie, take it out the great American trophy.

01:24:16No.

01:24:17The champion destroying the trophy.

01:24:20No, no.

01:24:21Man.

01:24:25I don't believe Guerrero.

01:24:27Eddie Guerrero threw it at JPL's Knights.

01:24:32That was nice.

01:24:33Well, Eddie Guerrero could pray to destroy that trophy all he wants for.

01:24:37Because at the end of the day, JPL, John Patrick Lafayette,

01:24:42is the number one contender for Eddie Guerrero's WWE Championship.

01:24:47And he's coming after him.
