SD

[opera142]

Show opens with Jericho bitching about the logic holes in the booking. Why does Raw's Randy Orton get a shot at the SD belt before Jericho?

Preach it, Mr. Jericho.

Out to harsh my preciouii buzz is Edge in all his post-grunge glory. Skinny jeans, unwashed hair, full of bluster about having one move. Luckily, the fine citizens of London do not take the bait on "spear". He runs down Jericho which sorta-kinda thrills me in an arms-crossed-the-Hell-with-you-Edge-but-whatever-you're-better-than-Ziggler-I-guess way.

Teddy Long struts out to make a match of some kind. I was still thinking about Jericho being run-down.

Drew McIntyre currently has the best theme/Titantron combo. He lurches slowly down the ramp so that everyone may enjoy it. Also slowly lurching is his opponent, Kane. Their match was equal parts kicking and hugging. Then Drew tried to powder. M. Hardy lurched in to guide Drew back to the match. Outside interference. Kane loses and goes buck. Chokeslam for the Precious.

If that doesn't start Kane's yearly bondage-ing pretty boys storyline, I will get huffy. HUFFY, STEPH.

Ziggler is totally sorry that Josh Mathews is a total wuss who cries when he gets a finisher slapped on him for no reason. On behalf of Josh's honor, R-Truth raps. there was also wrestling, but I fast-forwarded.

Then I fast-forwarded more because it was a Batista recap, and commercials for Avatar, the KFC Double-Down (A terrifying M.Hardy/Steph/Edge-like "sandwich" of two giant pieces of deep-fried chicken glued together with 2 kinds of fake cheese and bacon) and the local used car salesman who looks like Paul Heyman.

Mickie's pretty face brought my TiVo back to real time speed. Stryker called her Spunky Brewster. She's putting out a country album. Her and McCool's match consisted of push-ups and screeching and tube tops. Michelle wins, Team Simply Flawless bails, Mickie hangs out in the ring with the belt.

Backstage, Luke Gallows and Darren Young bicker. Punk intercedes, tells them "Girls, you're both pretty". (Not true, btw). Everyone smiles and strolls toward the ring to wrestling the Hart Dynasty and Rey.

Miz helps out on commentary, yet says nothing, nothing at all, when Rey scampers out wearing La Parka's mask. He does ask if the Hart dungeon ever had a giant. This match is full of flippy and counters and whee. Thank you for the wrestling.

Punk has a bruise on his butt cheek. Miz had a badge. IDK either. It gets him into British museums sans entrance fee. Todd calls him "Harry Potter". THis causes of storm of "Nerd!" and "No, you're the nerd!" slurs. Match ends with a crash-n-burn into a post, Rey swung around the corner for a two-sideD 619, then David Hart Smith schoolboyed Punk for the pin.

Backstage, ISN'T FUNNY JERICHO HAS A BUTLER.

Frontside, JTG got the graphics and theme song in the divorce. Now that's he's single, he's all about the leather. Caylen Croft isn't into that so much, dude. Shad shows up, mainly to lurk.

Backstage again, Edge is talking shit about everyone with Josh Mathews. Josh is totally gonna tattle to everyone later.

Commercial: Super creepy local pawn shop ad where the owner makes his kid dress up like a dummy and they do this icky ventriloquist's routine in an attempt to sell $19.99 gold earings.

ME: 3-way. Swagger, Jericho in a corset, and Edge. HEY STEPH I WILL PAY SERIOUS SERIOUS MONEY FOR A 30-MINUTE PPV MATCH BETWEEN SWAGGER AND SHELTON BENJAMIN. ZOMG WORKRATE. Swagger has bruised thighs too. European tours make Taker cranky. Swagger retains.

ZOMG. Hickeys? But from who! Can't be Miz, because I've got him with Danielson, and maybe Cena. *grins*

With advance apologise for the tl:dr

>>It gets him into British museums sans entrance fee. << The Miz has a Blue Peter badge which is a mark of awesome (and, I'm assuming, makes him a face temporarily). Blue Peter is an ancient kids TV show over here and you get a badge for going on or winning one of their competitions. There should be gazillions of them floating out there, and yet there's still quite a status symbol.

If you get too huffy, Jericho might get a second butler. Worse, his butler might get a butler.

His butler should have a butler. But not a butler be.
