Another Former WWE Star Passes

Start off on another sad note as yet another former WWE star passes away. Former Diva Gertrude Vachon, better know for her in ring name Luna Vachon was found dead at 10am Friday morning. She died at the age of 48.
I am unfamiliar with her work during WWE as she was a performer before my time of watching.
My deepest condolences to Luna’s family and friends.

This weeks SmackDown! Wasn’t very amazing, although we saw the return of the Undertaker we didn’t get to see him in action. At the end of the show Kane and Undertaker cut a promo, hinting towards Taker vs. Kane at NOC.
Although that is all we saw of Taker it was a good promo, its something that both Kane and Taker are very good at.

At the start of the show Kane took on Rey but this time it was under Kane’s rule of no DQ.
The match didn’t last that long and wasn’t too great either, Kane made short work of the smaller man.
After the match Alberto Del Rio came down and also attacked Rey targeting his injured arm. After slamming Rey’s arm in a steal chair he locked in his Arm Bar.
This may be to remove Rey from our screens and give him a break.

Later on Alberto made short work of a local competitor to help push him up the ranks and make him look good in the process.

CM Punk went up against JTG. JTG is just a failing competitor now neither he nor Shad have made anything of them selves since splitting, they were better off together.
Punk ended it with the GTS and the anaconda vice.
Punk then had the S.E.S on there knees in the ring and told them to be better or they are gone. This angle will most probably be used as the reason for Serena’s leaving.
She was present at this show as it was recorded earlier in the week before the decision was made for her release.
I wish her well and hope to see her wrestling again soon, (with a full head of hair I hope).
Later Luke Gallows took on the Big Show, CM Punk watched back stage to see his S.E.S member win but unfortunately Big Shows right hand met Luck Gallows face with an almighty smack allowing Show to pick up the win.

Kofi battled with Dolph once again but this time if Dolph is disqualified, he loses the title.
Now usually seeing the same two Superstars wrestle every week against each other can get quite samey and repetitive, but that doesn’t seem to be the case with these two, it was a good match in fact id say bet match of the night.
Kofi won but not by, DQ, pin, or Submission, thanks to Vicki keeping Dolph outside the ring Kofi won via count out, but Dolph there for is able to keep his belt.

The last match to mention is Jack Swagger vs. MVP in a Senior Invitational. It was an interesting and unique contest as it was done in the style of proper wrestling. The rules were the first to get five take downs wins.
If MVP won Swagger would have to pay for MVP’s Summer Block Party, and if Swagger won he would host MVP’s VIP lounge for one night.
Swagger took an early lead going three to zero; MVP became frustrated and slapped Swagger getting himself instantly disqualified. Swagger didn’t let it end there though, he attacked MVP and locked in his ankle lock outside the ring.

We did see LayCool back stage with there Rookie Kaval, LayCool spoke more about seeing Melina on Raw.
Hornswoggle reviled LayCool’s plan to Teddy Long in the form of charades.
What LayCool are going to do is still unknown to us.

Raw I believe will be a 3 hour special and will have stars from all over the WWE universe; we will most probably have a lot of the extra hour used to show old footage of Raw.

Make sure to tune to Raw for the historic episode.

Matty.D Signing off.
