He says that Hornswoggle has held his own over the last few weeks. They are of the same blood but in order to be a McMahon, you need to stand on your own two feet.

WWE SmackDown! Results - 26-10-07
October 26, 2007
From the Kansas City Missouri!
-JBL and Cole hype Cyber Sunday.
-THE VIP LOUNGE MVP hypes himself, and then turns his attention to Matt, who calls him “homey.” Finlay and Rey Mysterio are there as well. MVP doesn’t want any trouble. Finlay decides to hype their possible stipulations. Rey’s new mostly Spanish gimmick is so annoying. I get that the Hispanic demographic is like 30% of the SD audience, but you know, I’d like to know what the hell he’s saying from time to time. They all hype the Cyber Sunday matches, the tag match later, Finlay and Rey predictably brawl with MVP and Hardy making Pecos vs. Euros bets.
-We see clips of JBL getting speared by Batista last week. Batista is with Anastacia backstage, and says he is not SCURRED and the referee, whoever it maybe better stay out of his way. And for the last time, “I AM NOT SCURRED~!”
Mark Henry vs. Kane
Henry works the injured ribs of Kane to begin. Kane surprises me with a basement dropkick, but that doesn’t last long as Henry slams him down and goes back to work. Henry with the bear hug, Kane escapes and gets the boot and uppercuts. Kane manages a chokeslam and pins Henry.
Winner: Kane @ 3:00 via pin

NON-TITLE MATCH: Matt Hardy and MVP vs. Rey Mysterio and Finlay
Matt and Finlay work a bit, but Finlay tags in Rey to make the faces fight. God Finlay is great. MVP tags himself in and he and Rey go at it, Rey gets a swank head scissors and takes control. Everyone is getting along way too well to begin this whole thing. Finlay yelling at Rey to “Suck it up” during the match was fun. Five minutes in and everything is calm and clean, good mat wrestling and the teams are getting along. Some good exchanges with MVP and Rey, who have some good chemistry it seems. They start to argue finally after MVP slammed Rey down, and we head to a commercial @ 7:20.
Back from commercial @ 11:04 with Finlay and Matt battling, MVP tags in and sends Finlay to the floor. They stand off and Finlay shoots with a single leg and then goes to tag Rey, who backs off and won’t tag in. Finlay gets control of MVP and Rey then tags in. Rey runs wild with some kicks and such and then works a seated head scissors. MVP slips out and slams the knees of Rey off the mat. Rey rolls towards the ropes and Finlay kicks him back in the ring. Man, there’s where Matt gets the 7-inch bloody gash on his head. The last time he had a 7-inch bloody gash on his head was when he was with Lita. Yes that was too easy, just like Lita. Matt tried the splash mountain and Rey got the RANA counter, which did it. Side effect by Matt and he is a bloody mess. Holy shit, Finlay tags in and starts to elbow away at the cut and just beat Matt’s ass. OLD SKOOL~! The ref keeps checking on Matt, you know it’s a shame first of all that Matt got injured, but it is a shame that for the most part it happened in a meaningless TV match instead of on PPV where it could have made more drama for a more important match. Rey hesitates, but eventually gets a double 619. Rey springboard sin and eats the SHACKALIACKI from Finlay. Playmaker, which needs to go, finishes it for MVP.
Winners: MVP and Matt Hardy @ 17:20 via pin
# Big ups to Matt for gutting out the rest of the match after that nasty cut. Good TV match here, they played up the Cyber Sunday matches and everyone was working hard. There was a lot of good wrestling here, no complaints.

-Back from commercial with hype of the Taker vs. Batista feud.
-Vicky is with Armando and they like their business relationship. Armando has some work to do and leaves. Cue Jamie Noble. He is misunderstood, and thusly was killed by Taker and Khali. He sees that Vicky is stressed out and it must be hard on Vicky with this high profile job, and she is lonely. Noble gets lonely too and maybe they could help each other. He plays with her hair and whispers something to her and he growls at her. He suggests a bedroom pillow match, but she says Noble vs. Batista. WHY DO YOU CONTINUE TO VIOLATE ME VICKY? He then does a great Batista impersonation and leaves in a panic. Jamie Noble is great.

MAIN EVENT INTERVIEW~!
JBL is in the ring and hypes the Cyber Sunday match, and pimps himself as the referee. The campaign buttons and such are a great touch. He runs down Foley and Austin, and then runs a special presentation, paid for by the Friends of JBL! This is great, it’s hype for JBL and then slander on Austin and Foley. “JBL never had to pull a gun on his boss or jump off a roof.” This should have been 10-minutes long and closed the show. He has gifts for us…VOTE JBL SHIRTS~! “A vote for JBL is a vote for Batista losing!”
He says he will even give Taker one to wear. JBL chants his name and Taker finally makes his way to the ring. JBL says he will make sure Taker wins this Sunday, and he should pledge allegiance to JBL and wear his shirt right now. JBL is NOT asking. Taker takes off the coat, the hat, JBL tries to give him the shirt and then says he has beat Taker’s ass before and can do it again because he is the WRESTLING…
GOOZLE.
CHOKESLAM.
Batista comes out because he isn’t SCURRED. He throws the belt down and calls Take on. SPEAR on Taker. Taker sits up and Batista shits his pants.

Ken Kennedy is in the ring as we start off tonight’s show. He says that everyone has the opportunity on Sunday to make history because they get to vote for the man who will face Randy Orton for the WWE Championship. He decides to take a look at the candidates. On one hand, you have Intercontinental Champion Jeff Hardy. Jeff is like Hillary Clinton. They have their pretty blonde hair, a famous last name; but Jeff will not be able to get the job done because just like Hillary, he has no testicles. On the other hand, you have Shawn Michaels. Shawn Michaels is like Rudy Giuliani. They both talk tough, have impressive resumes; but both live in the past. He wants Shawn to tell him what he has done lately. It is nowhere near as impressive as what he has done. Over the last two years, he has been the United States Champion, the winner of the Money in the Bank Match; and has wins over Rey Mysterio, Batista, and the Undertaker. Kennedy says to ask not what Mister Kennedy can do for you, but ask what each and everyone can do for Mister Kennedy. He says that he will defeat Randy Orton and there will be a new WWE Champion.
Kennedy is interrupted by Jeff Hardy. Jeff is standing in the crowd and Kennedy tells Hardy that he cut him off. Hardy says that by standing with the fans, Kennedy’s approval rating sucks.

Hardy goes after Kennedy in the ring and they exchange punches. Randy Orton comes into the ring and Hardy punches Orton. Kennedy holds Hardy for Orton as Orton punches Hardy.

He grabbed Khali for the chokeslam, but he was able to clothesline the Big Red Machine over the top rope. Khali went after Kane on the outside and grabbed some wire at ringside and choked Kane with it. When he wouldn’t break, Charles Robinson disqualified him.

Batista said he’s going to tell the ref at Cyber Sunday, no matter who it is: “Stay out of my way.” JBL brought up that Batista has never beaten the Undertaker. JBL read a passage from Batista’s book, then accused the big man of being afraid of Taker. As Batista was about to exit the ring, JBL called him a coward. So of course, things got physical, and Batista speared Layfield.
-Still to come tonight, for the first time ever, MVP vs. Rey Mysterio. Man, that’d be worth saving for a PPV, I’d say. But I guess there isn’t much of that done anymore.
[Break]
-JBL was in the middle of a diatribe as we came back from break. He said he’d cost Batista the title.

He says is is the Tuesday night delight, the new face of extreme, the shaman of sexy, so we should vote for him. Miz interrupts, and questions Morrison’s label of the shaman of sexy. He gets more girls in one night then he does in a lifetime. He gets so many girls he’s bored of them. Chicks dig him and their men fear him, and that’s why WWE fans are going to choose the Miz. Morrison laughs, and says he is a bigger star then him. He’s bigger than sports entertainment, bigger then the beetles, and bigger than anyone in ECW. Cue Big Daddy V and Matt Striker. Our teacher lets us know that BDV is bigger than both of them combined. BDV is the third choice to face Punk, and he is the most dominate force in ECW history. The WWE fans have no other choice but to pick him. CM Punk out now, and he approaches the ring. He says they all make extremely valid points as to why they should be chosen. Who would hi pick to face at Cyber Sunday? BDV did injure him, but Morrison took advantage of that and got a victory. As far as Miz goes, nobody likes him.

October 15, 2007
WWE RAW
(Commentators - Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler)
We see a recap of Shawn Michaels returning last week, then Randy Orton visits William Regal to talk about the situation. Orton suggests a match between his three potential Cyber Sunday opponents, Michaels, Mr Kennedy and Jeff Hardy. Regal says he has a decision and an announcement to make. Post-credits, Regal comes out to the stage and, after playing with the English crowd to get them on his side (which seems to be accompanied by some weird editing), announces that Randy Orton will in fact face the three potentials, starting with Jeff Hardy.
Jeff Hardy Vs Randy Orton: Orton doesn’t look pleased. Well I suppose it would be a bit rubbish if he came out skipping and rubbing his hands with glee. Once the match starts, Hardy uses his quickitude to have some success, culminating with a pescado to Orton on the outside. After a break, Orton has Hardy in a chinlock. We’ll be seeing more of that hold tonight. Orton does his stomps and a knee drop gets two. Hardy gets a comeback and hits the Whisper in the Wind for two. Hardy goes up top for the Swanton, but Kennedy comes out to distract him, allowing Orton to hit the RKO for the win.
Winner: Randy Orton (Time 8:28)
Santino Marella Vs Val Venis: Maria is out with Santino and looking a touch skanky. Santino rips on England, then decides everyone looks so miserable because they’ve just finished watching The Condemned. In what is presumably a tribute to England, Val comes out looking very pasty. Santino attacks Val’s knee from the bell, keeps attacking it, then attacks it some more, Val fights back with some knockdowns, but Santino sits down on a sunset flip roll up in the corner, and grabs the rope to get the pin.
Winner: Santino Marella (2:39)
Diva Search: “The most fun part of it was running”.
Carlito and Coachman share a joke, but the mood turns nasty as Carlito laughs about Hornswoggle. Coachman says he wants to get rid of him for good, then the little fella appears and nicks Coachman’s apple. Well, Coachman had nicked it from Carlito, who’s the real victim here? Coachman chases after Hornswoggle, they mess up the canteen, then disappear into the distance.
Mr McMahon talks to Regal about the whereabouts of HHH. Regal says he’s in no condition to fight due to the beating he took from Umaga. McMahon questions the way Regal says Umaga.
Mr Kennedy Vs Randy Orton: How long before Jeff Hardy appears? Kennedy announces himself, which the English crowd loves. Simpletons. Orton and Kennedy wrestle for three and a half minutes, at which point Kennedy hits his fireman’s carry roll thing (not from the ropes), which is the cue for Hardy to turn up, kick Kennedy down, and hit him with the Swanton. I guess it’s a dq win for Kennedy, but they don’t announce anything.
Winner: Mr Kennedy (3:34)
Mr McMahon comes dows to the ring to talk about Cyber Sunday, and how great it is for the fans. He brings out Umaga. I’ve just noticed Andy ‘Boy’ Simmons in the ring shitting himself. McMahon points out that there are three choices for the Umaga match with HHH at Cyber Sunday, one of those being a Streetfight. McMahon talks to Simmons (not the butler) and asks him if he is afraid. “Yeah”.
Umaga Vs Andy Simmons: (Streetfight) Funnily enough, Umaga beats the crap out of Simmons, throwing him over the announce table and Samoan dropping him onto a chair for the three count. McMahon stops Simmons as he is being helped out, and tells him the fans could also vote for a first blood match…
Winner: Umaga (1:36)
Umaga Vs Andy Simmons: (First Blood) Umaga uses his head, then thumbs Simmons to the throat multiple times, making him cough up blood. Of course, there is a third option for Cyber Sunday: a cage match…
Winner: Umaga (1:27)
Umaga Vs Andy Simmons: (Steel cage match) Simmons gets a little bit of respite as the cage is lowered and McMahon shows replays of what we’ve just seen. The match starts with Umaga throwing Simmons into the cage. McMahon talks on the mic as this goes on, calling Simmons HHH. Umaga does some more throwing, then steps out the door.
Winner: Umaga (1:25)
Hornswoggle is still running from Coachman. He hops on a tiny tricycle, Coachman follows on a bike, Ron Simmons says Damn.
Jillian Hall Vs Candice Michelle: Jillian gets on the mic and tells Lilian her performance last week was pathetic. Well, it wasn’t great. Jillian keeps talking, then starts singing. Unlike Lilian’s spanish singing, Jillian is going to sing in British. Wannabe by the Spice Girls to be precise. She is interrupted by Candice Michelle’s music. Sweet baby Moses, can we not hear Jillian instead? Jillian attacks Candice as she enters the ring, but things don’t last long as Candice hits the Candy Wrapper for the quick win.
Winner: Candice Michelle (0:40)
We get a taped promo from Beth Phoenix, who reveals that Candice Michelle is getting her rematch next week on Raw. Bob Holly talks to Cody Rhodes, questioning his decision to take him on again. Cody says he can beat him and earn his respect. Bob slaps him hard to fire him up.
Brian Kendrick Vs Rory McAllister: Both men have their respective tag partners with them, and Cade & Murdoch are at ringside for commentary. Rory dominates Brian, which is boring. Kendrick gets a boot up and begins a comeback, but Robbie distracts him, allowing Rory to hit a one man Scot Drop for the three count.
Winner: Rory McAllister (3:16)
Todd Grisham’s guest at this time is Shawn Michaels. Basically, he wants to get his revenge on Randy. Coachman chases Hornswoggle into the Diva’s Locker room. Then out again. After another Jericho thing, this time with the words ‘Upon us’ in it, Hornswoggle runs down to the ring, and under it. Coachman takes a giant cartoon style plunger from under the ring, and threatens to blow Hornswoggle up. He pushes it and nothing happens, so Coachman follows the wire under the ring. Obviously, Hornswoggle comes out, sees the plunger, and pushes it. The cameras wobble and smoke comes from under the ring. Coachman comes out covered in soot, as Horny jigs about.
Cody Rhodes Vs Bob Holly: Who cares? Cody gets a bunch of roll up nearfalls, but holly hits the Alabama Slam for the third win.
Winner: Bob Holly (3:52)
Shawn Michaels Vs Randy Orton: HBK pounds on Orton at the bell, and doesn’t stop when Orton rolls out of the ring. Back in the ring, HBK gets a two count, but Orton hits an elbow and slows the pace down. HBK blocks a superplex, knocks Orton off the ropes, and hits the big elbow. Kennedy runs in before HBK can think about any Sweet Chin Music, with Jeff Hardy coming down for the save.
Winner: Shawn Michaels (2:12)
Hardy is thrown out of the ring, Orton stalks HBK for the RKO, HBK blocks the move thereby shoving Orton into Kennedy, and Orton turns round into the superkick. HBK looks pleased with his night’s work as his music plays and we fade to black.
Well that was a typical overseas Raw: not much on the way of action and a whole lot of filler. Still, there’ve been much worse editions of Raw this year.
