KNOW YOUR ROLE
The Rock
Know Your Role

Hi there, my names Cahir and thanks to Wrestleman I will be giving you Smackdown results the day after they are recorded and then giving a full report later on in the week.

Well one week after Wrestlemania I have to be honest and say that I am disappointed. In an ideal world The Rock would be the champion, Austin and the Undertaker would have returned, Jericho would be the inter continental champ and Benoit would be European champ. I'll talk more about this in my recap of Smackdown, enjoy!!!!!!!

Benoit Vs. Rikishi

Chris Benoit WON
Entertaining match but I knew Benoit would have won it. Always enjoy it when Rikishi beats his opponent after hes pinned. At Wrestlemania I would have loved Rikishi to have turned on TOO COOL with Kane and kick their gay asses thus setting up an angle with Rikishi and Kane. However Kanes injured now for about six weeks after breaking his hand so maybe this angle may develop in the future. As for Benoit, a bit early to make him an inter continental champ as he has no mic skills at all. Winning the European belt and starting a feud with Kirk Angel (sorry Im a Jericholic and also can't spell) would have been better in my opinion.

Someone Vs. Someone

Someone WON Details

Interview

Next up Vince and Shane come out and bitch about The Rock. Am I the only person whos bored of seeing Vince been a heal once again. I hate to say but this feud is somewhat similar to that of Austin and Vince, I hope the WWF prove me wrong. I laughed at the fact Jim Ross was slagged off as well but he didn't appear. He must have been shattered working two nights in a row instead of his usual one, fat bastard. In fairness I'd rather hear Ross than bloody Micheal Cole, what a knob. He use to present all the shows in the UK and Ireland but hes been replaced by ' Coach', sorry I mean that moron Jonathon Coachman, I don't know whos worse!!!

Dudley's Vs. T & A w/Trish Stratus

Dudley's WON
T&A fought well but glad to see the Dudleys win. Would have got a laugh if Buh Buh Ray had put Trish through a table though, bit early for her to have a holiday though. I hate to break it to all you WWF perverts out there but I doubt Trish will ever get her puppies out. Looking forward to seeingThe Kats again or even better Terri possibly at Backlash. In my opinion the Dudleys are the best team in the WWF at the minute. Why the hell did the Hardys come out though. A feud between one of these two with Edge and Christian would be better instead of fighting between these two. My opinion Dudleys vs Hardys at Backlash to be number one contenders. Edge and Christain will be Tag Team champs for a while but when their regin comes to an end I hope to see the rumoured split take place.

Tazz Vs. Perry Saturn (no contest)

Nodody WON
Tazz should be Hardcore champ, thats all Im saying about that. As for Saturn surely now is a good time to split The Radicals. Saturn is the only radical with no gold round his waist and as no feuds at the minute. Although I never watched WCW until recently I can't be sure of this but from what I heard Saturn is pretty good on the mic, hopefully the WWF will let him on the mic sometime soon.

Bossman & Bull Buchanen Vs. Al Snow & Steve Blackman

Boss man & Bull WON
I think its safe to say Head Cheese as a name is dead, thank god, it was a crap angle. However Blackman and Snow could be future WWF Tag team champs, they definitley work well together. As for Bossman HE SUCKS while Bull Buchanan has great potential, I love his leg drop, great finisher! Its hard to believe that Bossman had a title shot on a PPV only four months ago, absolutely disgraceful!!!.

Interview

Great to see that Eddie Guerrero is getting a good angle with Chyna. Bit disappointed that Jericho is involved, surely he deserves to be fighting over the inter-continental. My bet is that Chyna will eventually turn on Eddie and win the European belt off him. However I may be wrong, maybe she loves his Latino Heat seeing as it is confirmed that her off air relationship with HHH is finished. Love Eddies new entrance theme, Latino Heat is a good angle!

Dean Malenko Vs. Taka Michnioku

Dean Malenko WON
Yeah like Taka stood any chance of winning. Surely this fight should have been on HEAT rather than Smackdown. Malenko is quite a good wrestler despite been a small arsed no neck fool. Preferred it when Essa Rios held this belt coz at least he was in someway good, most people who fight for this belt are usually crap or gay (Brain Christopher)!!!!

Big Show Vs. The Godfather w/Ho's

The Big Show WON
It amazes me now the WWF can turn a fat bastard from a heal to a face overnight. On Sunday night the crowd hate him, on Monday night they are not sure what to think and by Thursday everyone loves him. I have to admit this angle is very funny. I wet myself when Big Show did the Worm and laughed even more when he put Brain Christopher through a table. Am I the only peson who picked up on the fact that The Show said on RAW that his fiance said he had personality but on Smackdown he was eating the face off a Ho. The Ho was pretty good looking though and would be interesting if we see her again possibly as a manager.

Edge & Christian Vs. Kurt Angle & Hardcore Holly

Edge & Christian WON
Kirk Angle is one of the best mic users in the WWF, its true its true. Note that the crowd are now chanting USA USA which sort of pisses me off coz Angle is so good as a heal. I was surprised he didn't retain at least one belt at Wrestlemania but I like this story of a conspiracy against him. As for the match it wasn't that good.

DAMN!

Stephanie persuades her father to change the main event which he does to Road Dogg and X-Pac against the Rock

MAIN EVENT
The Rock Vs. X-Pac & Road Dogg - Handicapped Match

I hate X-PAC, just so you know!! I would have much preferred to see Rock take on both the McMahons but I believe Vince and The Rock could be the main event at Backlash, how shite would that be, I hope Im wrong. As for the match it reaffirmed my belief that this angle is similar to the Austin-Vince feud. However maybe HHH could change this and ditch the McMahons and DX. This of course will never happen as I am usually wrong in my predictions. I can't see the Rock winning the title for a while as he will out for at least three months in the summer to film The Mummy 2. If The Rock didn't win at Wrestlemania can you honestly expect him to lift the title at Backlash. Can see this feud continuing for sometime though and as long as The Rock always ahs the upper hand I will be happy. Don't be surprised though if RAW ends next week with Rock beated to a pulp and the new coporation of the McMahons and DX standing in the middle of the ring.

Thats it for now, expect the taping results of Smackdown on Wednesday or Thursday and my next preview next Sunday. I'd like to hear your thoughts on my recap as well as your opinions (as well as hate mail from Brain Christopher fan(s)). Email me at [email protected]. Hopefully I will be able to put some of your messages on my next preview, until then see ya later.

If you would like to e-mail Cahir with any quesitons, comments,
