"WWE Friday Night SmackDown!" Talkback (Spoilers)

[The Penguin]

It's just a day after Valentine's Day tonight on SmackDown and Edge has said he has a question for Vickie Guerrero tonight. Just days from No Way Out, how will this play leading up to No Way Out?

In love and war
February 15, 2008

On last week’s edition of "The Cutting Edge," the Rated-R Superstar revealed he plans to ask SmackDown GM Vickie Guerrero an important, life-changing question for Valentine’s Day. Later in the night, Diva Eve hinted that he might pop the question to the GM. On this week’s SmackDown, will the Ultimate Opportunist ask the GM to join him in holy mat(rimony)?

Rey Mysterio made it clear how he felt about their relationship when he West Coast Popped Edge, leaving him dazed and confused outside the ring. On this week’s SmackDown, what will the Master of the 619 have to say about the future of the romantic duo? Although Edge’s specific question remains to be revealed, there’s no uncertainty when it comes to what the ultimate underdog sees in his future – the World Title he once held.

And, if Edge does ask the “big question,” how will Vickie respond? How might her answer affect the entire “Guerrero family”?

With No Way Out just two days after this week's SmackDown and the Elimination Chamber looming, Chamber opponents Batista and United States Champion MVP will kick the show off in a one-on-one encounter. Who will gain the upper hand just 48 hours before stepping into the sadistic structure? And what will the other Chamber participants Undertaker, Big Daddy V, Finlay and The Great Khali do to ready themselves for the opportunity to move on to WrestleMania XXIV and an opportunity at the World Heavyweight Championship?

After tasting defeat last week in action against Shelton Benjamin, Kane will team with CM Punk to face ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero and Benjamin. Will the Big Red Monster & the Straightedge Superstar earn victory over Guerrero and ECW's "Gold Standard?" Or will Chavo & Shelton steal a win on SmackDown?

With Valentine’s Day love in the air, will Michelle McCool finally distance herself from the raging Chuck Palumbo and spend more time with Jamie Noble? After the vicious beating Palumbo delivered to Noble last week, he certainly could use some lovin’.

With anticipation building for No Way Out, the Superstars are sure to step up their intensity level a few notches on this week’s SmackDown. What will transpire before they compete in the biggest Elimination Chamber Match in history? Will cupid’s arrow be thrown far off-course with the intensity of Friday Night Smackdown? Tune in at 8/7 CT on The CW Network to find out.

Very sloppy editing when they were setting up for the wedding. They just threw it in directly after the preceding match. Normally they would just cut to commercial or something else. A blemish on the usual top-notch WWE production.

The Proposal was much better than thought. Mainly because Edge can carry any type of medicore segment and improve it with his promos. at him singing bryan Adams song. at Rey Mysterio's mic work. Very terrible mic work.

Overall, an ok smackdown.

Did it go un-HD for the last minute of the show for anyone elese?

Well, I don't recall Edge ever giving Lita a ring a couple of years back. They tried to get married, but that didn't work, and neither will this one. Remember, it was just 5 months ago that Teddy Long was going to be married, and had that "heart attack" that caused a premature end to his administration. Now, maybe the reverse can hold true, and that Vicki is taken out, giving Teddy his job back.

It's funny, though. A week after this show was taped, Rey Mysterio ends up tearing a tricep muscle in a match in Chile, which means he may not be at No Way Out. His promo, then, may have a hollow ring to it.

The tag matches deserved more time, and the heel teams ended up getting squashed as a result.

When will someone explain why Vicki has to have a wheelchair?

Notice that the only heel to win tonight was Victoria, and she needed a distraction from Chuck Palumbo to gain the fall. Palumbo needs to take acting lessons from Adam Sandler.

How often does SmackDown start off with Batista? I lost interest before MVP even came out.

It’s about time someone used the ring bell outside of the official match to take advantage of the mood swings of Festus. I really thought it would be an opponent making his docile during the match, but Jesse used it very well to save Moore & Yang from the double teams.

Chuck Palumbo is an . This character has become so despicable I hate him more than you are supposed to hate a heel. I don’t appreciate the good job the man is doing or how he is being written. I’m just disgusted and angry.

I don’t know what the Undertaker has against managers after he had Paul Bearer by his side all those years. He’s just so rough on them these days. Striker should have left the Dead Man alone. What do people think of Taker’s leg hold? I don’t know that I’m very impressed.

I liked the concept and execution of the Punk/Kane-Chavo/Benjamin match. Punk has won way too much lately to win the title on Sunday.

No surprise that the “chaos in the corners” made the final decision in the Finlay-Khali match. It will also not be a surprise when neither of these men win on Sunday.

Rey being upset about Vickie being with Edge puts at risk Eddie’s name being dragged up again and I really don’t want to see that.

PLEASE, for the love of God, end this "relationship" between Edge and Vickie Guerrero. These two have no type of on screen chemistry whatsoever, and the results are just hideous because Vickie Guerrero can't act to save her life (there's something very wrong when I find Lita to be a better actress than another woman).
