WWE Smackdown house show
December 29, 2007
Baltimore, Md. at Baltimore Arena
Report by A. Madison, PWTorch correspondent
The arena is three-fourths full maybe more. They usually twarp the top levels off but, there were people up there this time. Anyway woooo's go around the arena before the show. The show begins with Smackdown GM Teddy Long. He announces that U.S Champ MVP will be in action. Big Daddy V and The Great Khali will team up to face The Brothers of Destruction. And finally we will have a Last Man Standing Match between Edge & Batista.
Kelly Kelly & Michelle McCool defeat Victoria & Layla. McCool was over with the fans in Baltimore. Kelly got a mediocre reaction while Victoria got a few pops. This match was longer than the last. Not a bad match. Kelly played victim while McCool did most of the wrestling. Layla seems to be getting better. She showed lots of improvement. McCool would win after landing a chick kick to the face of Victoria.
MVP defeated Chuck Palumbo to retain the U.S. Title. Before the match MVP did some mic work talking about The Baltimore Ravens. I was a little disappointed not seeing Rey. When MVP's music hit, people started running to the barricade. Now I don't know if it's me but, I think he's gonna be huge and soon. Chuck Palumbo comes out with Michelle McCool. He pretty much manhandles MVP. He came so close to a win that people were boing when the ref called it a kickout. Jamie Noble would come out to grab McCool. Enough to distract Palumbo so MVP could hit The Playmaker. MVP retains. (After the match, Palumbo was booed. He grabbed the mic and called Baltimore garbage. He asked fans who would give Michelle a ride home cause he wouldn't. McCool would then walk away on Palumbo leaving him all alone.)
