Montel V. Porter vs. Matt Hardy (Non-title). Porter cut a promo pre-match again claiming he's better than us. Right. Posers make claims like that, guy. He even goes so far as to put himself on a par with the NFL's Dallas Cowboys. The fans in Big D realize the man is a walking parody of Cowboys star Terrell Owens, so they give him some serious heat. Rick the Sign Guy has been here "all week". Creative should talk to him about some ideas. Nah, that's too easy. Just like on Raw, a Hardy's in the curtain jerker, and it's your match of the night. Based on this match, we're likely to see these two hook it up again in 16 days at the Great American Bash, this time with the US title on the line. Porter's running kicks apparently are derived from Japan's Masahiro Chono. I believe it. Porter does do his homework. He ate two Side Effects, but blocked the Twist of Fate. He hoisted Hardy on his shoulders, then dropped Matt behind him. Tried it a 2nd time and Matt hit the Twist out of nowhere to end it. Winner: Matt Hardy.

Chris Masters vs. Jimmy Wang Yang. Never a good idea to put a cruiserweight in against someone like Masters. Yang had his moments, but a crossbody attempt was caught and converted into the Masterlock. Ballgame. Winner: Chris Masters..

Great Khali comes out after with Runjin Singh. Masters decides discretion is the better part of valor and bails, leaving Yang to suffer further with a tree slam. Singh & Khali issue an open challenge for the Bash.

Teddy Long & Kristal are having issues over the wedding. Edge shows up, but isn't willing to wrestle, so Teddy offers a compromise in the form of hosting Cutting Edge tonight with a mystery guest. Teddy & Kristal leave Vicki Guerrero in the office with Edge.

The Major Brothers vs. Jeremy Young & Mike Fox. The lone tag team match of the week, and it's a rent-a-jobber special. Winners: The Major Brothers..

Ric Flair vs. Finlay.They say these two have never fought before. I'm not so sure about that. JBL yaks about ref Charles Robinson's long time friendship with Flair. Foreshadowing something, perhaps? Very good match, not quite as good as Hardy-Porter, and tainted by the lame finish. Finlay worked on the legs, employing Flair's strategy, and applied the Celtic Knot (Indian Deathlock). Flair made the ropes, and would soon apply the figure four. As was the case vs. Carlito last week, Flair released the hold just before Finlay could force a rope break. Hornswoggle pops up and enters, only to be greeted with a chop. 'Swoggle rolls out and detains Robinson long enough for Finlay to use the shillelagh, then reapply the Celtic Knot. Flair taps out quickly. This isn't over. Winner: Finlay.

Khali assaults a tech aide. Lame. Victoria accuses Torrie Wilson of stealing her spotlight on Raw, and now they're both on Smackdown, so she doesn't want it to happen again. A catfight breaks out. Vic has had more talk time in the last two weeks than she's had in two years. Vidpack airs promoting the return of Rey Mysterio, similar to Triple H returning to Raw.

Kenny Dykstra vs. Chuck Palumbo. Smackdown debut for the former Spirit Squad captain, and Palumbo is returning to Smackdown for the first time in 3 years. Seems Uncreative didn't have anything for him other than squashing rent-a-jobbers on Heat over on the Raw brand, so Chuck's back in the land of blue & white. Cole & JBL bring up Palumbo's 4 tag title runs (2 WCW, 2 WWE) and his love of motorcycles. Pretty even match, but how do you follow two veterans like Flair & Finlay? Palumbo's Full Throttle finisher is now a swinging sideslam instead of a shoulder-high stunner. Huh? Dykstra didn't pay any attention to MVP earlier, as his pre-match promo put him in a hole he didn't completely dig his way out of. Winner: Chuck Palumbo.

Eugene vs. Deuce (w/Cherry & Domino).They confirm that Domino broke his nose last week vs. Cryme Tyme. Eugene finds Cherry's shiny roller skates to be a distraction, such that Deuce gets an early advantage on the man-child. Eugene hulks up, and after the two knock heads, knocking Eugene to the floor, Khali & Singh return. Deuce is chopped down. Domino tosses Eugene back in, and Eugene gets another tree slam.Winner: None. No Contest due to Khali attacking both men.

Cutting Edge: Edge is caught a little off-guard, but then freaks out when Kane's pyro & music hit. He tries sucking up to Big Red, noting that it's been nearly 10 years since Kane's debut. He mentions "See No Evil", which was really only a success in terms of DVD sales. Kane tells Edge, "I don't like you", and punches him out of the ring. Naturally, the cowardly champion doesn't want anything further to do with Kane, and tells him so, but Long returns and reveals that he anticipated Edge's actions, so he arranged for Kane to be the guest, as Kane is the next challenger for the World title at the Bash.
