of Velocity at http://www.wwe.com/shows/webshows/velocity/
(1) Kid Kash defeated Paul London
with a moonsault
Segment one opens up with cruiserweight
action as we have Kid Kash taking on Paul London. London
was already in the ring and didn't get an entrance.
Paul London hits a couple arm drags and follows with
a dropkick for an early two count. London goes to a
headlock. Kash tries to back suplex him, but London
lands on his feet and goes back to the headlock. Kash
tries to whip him to the ropes but London hangs on to
the headlock, so Kash counters with a backbreaker. Kash
goes to work on the back. London fights his way out
with a couple right hands and comes off the ropes, but
Kash hits a back elbow and covers for a two count. Kash
goes back to the back, but London gets out with some
kicks to the head. Kash regains control and looks like
he's going for a back suplex, but instead drops London
stomach first to the mat. Kash goes to a surfboard,
but London holds on. Kash argues with the referee giving
London time to recover. London hits some punches to
the gut and catches Kash off the ropes with a spin kick.
Kash charges in, but London drops him throat first across
the top rope in a hot shot. London hits a running elbow
and follows with the dropsault for a two count. London
tries to suplex Kash, but Kash floats over and pulls
London to the mat by the hair for a two count. He follows
with some chops in the corner and goes for the musclebuster
but London fights out of it with some kicks and puts
him in an Oklahoma roll for a long two count. Kash whips
London to the corner and charges in, but London counters
with an elbow and climbs to the top for the mushroom
stomp. London runs in but is met with a kick. Kash tries
to climb the ropes, but London kicks his leg crotching
him on the rop. London tries to follow with a top rope
hurricanranna, but Kash shoves him off and hits a top
rope moonsault to score the pin. They close out the
segment with the hype video for the triple threat main
event at Taboo Tuesday.
THE VERDICT
Good match. Kid Kash is definitely someone
they can move into a program with Juventud over the
cruiserweight belt. I just wish they'd let him talk
more since that is a big strength of his. London seems
to be on the losing end every week on Velocity but he
always seems to be in the best match on the show and
this was no exception. This is definitely one to check
out.
(2) Bobby Lashley defeated Jason
Partain with the dominator
Segment two opens up with a commercial
for WWE shopzone. Back in the ring, Bobby Lashley takes
on Jason Partain. Lashley hits an early backdrop. Partain
goes to the headlock, but Lashley throws him off. Lashley
whips him to the ropes for a shoulderblock, then kicks
him out of the ring. He press slams him on the outside
and tosses him back in the ring where he hits an overhead
belly to belly suplex before hitting the dominator for
the win. After the match, Nunzio and Vito attack Lashley.
There will be a match on Smackdown next week with Vito
and Nunzio taking on Lashley.
THE VERDICT
Basic squash match but it did a good job
establishing Lashley as the big unstoppable power guy.
They did a nice job with the attack at the end to let
everybody know about the match next week on Smackdown.
Probably only worth checking out if you're a Lashley
fan or you haven't seen him yet and want to take a look.
(3) Sylvan defeated Funaki with
the 3 seconds of fame
Segment three opens with an ad for the
latest edtion of Smackdown magazine with Batista on
the cover. Back in the ring Sylvan is taking on Funaki
in singles action. Sylvan informs us that he's the the
first supermodel superstar in WWE history (That's funny,
I seem to recall another guy). He goes on say as a supermodel
he charges thousands and thousands of dollars for a
photoshoot. But tonight, after he wins his match he
will give the fans 30 seconds to take his picture, on
the condition that they don't sell it and keep it for
their private collection. Sylvan attacks Funaki while
he's getting in the ring with a series of kicks and
works over the back early on. He whips him to the corner
repeatedly and hits a back suplex. Sylvan is then distracted
by a young lady in the front row giving Funaki time
to recover. Funaki hits a couple punches to the midsection
but that is short lived as Sylvan regains control. He
hits a backbreaker then whips Funaki to the ropes and
catches him in a bearhug. Funaki tries to fight his
way out, but Sylvan rams him into the corner then reapplies
the bear hug.
Funaki finally elbows his way out and Sylvan tries a
back suplex, but Funaki manages to shift his weight
on top of Sylvan as they land, but he doesn't have the
energy to make the cover. Sylvan grabs the leg, but
Funaki counters with an enziguri. Funaki hits some right
hands, but Sylvan counters by whipping him to the corner
and charges in. Funaki moves out of the way and hits
Sylvan with a bulldog. Smackdown's number one announcer
then hits a flying body press off the top rope but doesn't
go for the cover. Instead he tries to set up Sylvan
for the tornado ddt, but Sylvan throws him off and catches
him in a spinebuster. Sylvan hits the 3 seconds of fame
(suplex into a ddt) to score the pin. He poses for the
crowd afterwards.
THE VERDICT
Another squash match. Sylvan has really
improved alot and his character is really coming along.
He's a good arogant heel. I think it won't be long till
he's a regular on Smackdown. Only worth checking out
if you're a Sylvan fan.
(4) "The Fixer" Jillian
Hall defeated Stacy Keibler with her feet on the ropes
Segment four starts with a recap video
of the six man main event from Smackdown. Backstage,
Jillian is having a protector for her mole attaced to
her face. She has two straps going across her face in
an "X" that looks like something out of a
bondage video. I wish I could describe it better, but
its one of those things you have to see to believe.
Jillian attacks early and rams Stacy into the corner.
She gives her a snapmare and follows with a kick to
the midsection. Stacy reverses an irish whip, but Jillian
counters off the ropes with a monkey flip, which Stacy
counters with a cartwheel to land on her feet. Stacy
follows with a reverse roundhouse kick on Jillian for
a two count. She then chokes Jillian in the corner with
her long leg. She whips Jillian to the ropes but drops
her head and Jillian reverses it into a sunset flip.
This leads to a series of fish out of water two counts.
Jillian hits a clothesline to score another two count.
She rams her head into the mat a couple times then lands
a cartwheel elbowdrop for a two count. She then chokes
her in the ropes and covers for another two count. Jillian
goes to work on the back but Stacy flips her off and
throws her out of the ring. Jillian comes back in the
ring and runs into a roundhouse kick from Stacy. Stacy
climbs the ropes for the punches in the corner, but
Jillian drops her to the mat and turns it into a pinning
combination while putting her feet on the second rope
for additional leverage to score the pin.
THE VERDICT
This was your average WWE women's match.
Jillian looks alot better in wrestling gear than the
way she usually dresses. Kinda short, but they both
got their spots in. If you want to see some women's
action, its worth checking out.
OVERALL
Overall this was a good show from the
Velocity crew. Kind of a step down from the last couple
weeks but there's still enough here worth checking out.
Kash vs. London was the best match and is definitely
worth checking out. Velocity is good for showcasing
some of the young talent as they did here with Kash,
Lashley and Sylvan. The women's match was something
different as you usually don't much in the way of women's
action from the Smackdown roster. And it was every bit
as good as the women's action you usually see on Raw.
This show had a little bit of something for everyone
and you'll probably find something you like on it no
matter what your taste is.
