JBL w/Orlando Jordan vs. Charlie Haas w/Miss Jackie
Haas got a nice pop. Back and forth match for a bit. Interesting moonsault by Haas for 2. JBL wins clean.
Winner: JBL
After the match JBL gets on the mic and says he is unbeatable. He gets the city they are in mixed up. He has some advice for everyone – invest in JBL. Crowd chants for Eddie and JBL says they can chant “JBL” instead because he loves to hear his name. Good heel micwork. Says he isn’t giving Undertaker another chance because he failed. Now he wants a funeral at his expense, and brings out “His Last Ride”. It’s a caddy. And from it emerges… Theodore Long!
He says JBL cant make these decisions and instead it will be JBL vs. Undertaker at No Mercy. In a Hearst match. Which is just like an ambulance match. Where is Mike Awesome in his 70s gear when you need him?
Tag team titles are on the line… NEXT!

Nice, Carlito is on the beach. He walks along the beach with Palm Trees in the background. You know what he doesnâá€Ã¡Ãƒâ€šÃ¢â€žÂ¢t like on the beach? Kids. They shouldnâá€Ã¡Ãƒâ€šÃ¢â€žÂ¢t be allowed on the beach. They shouldnâá€Ã¡Ãƒâ€šÃ¢â€žÂ¢t be allowed anywhere! He doesnâá€Ã¡Ãƒâ€šÃ¢â€žÂ¢t want the kids of WWE Fans near him or he might beat them down. He has a lesson in cool for everyone.
Paul Heyman watches in the back and loves what he sees from Carlito. Long comes over and after some Heidenreich discussions, Long tells Heyman he has a match with an announcer. TAZZ!@? Nope, Cole? Nope, out comes Smackdown #1 Announcer Funaki! Hilarity ensues for about 10 seconds until Heidenreich comes down and beats him down. Extensively.

Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle
Commercial Break
Angle continues to control with a rear chin lock. Angle beats down Eddie and finally Eddie makes a comeback. Goes for 2 vertical suplexes but doesn’t hit the third. Eddie contrinues. Now another suplex string and this time he hits all “Three Amigos”. Eddie goes for a superplex but Luther pulls his legs and they both land badly. Angle covers but Eddie kicks out! Angle slam rolled through by Eddie into a pin but the match breaks down very very quickly after Luther and Cena came in. After the whole match breaks down, the Big Show music plays and he comes down and beats up everyone. Announcers are shocked because he wasn’t due back for a couple weeks. Chokeslams for a lot of guys. Tosses Spike into the other Dudleyz on the floor. Chokeslam on Cena. Heabutts. Finally grabs Eddie. Chokeslam. Turns to Angle. He looks angry still. Angle begs off but he gets a chokeslam and The Big Show is Back.
Luther Reigns from behind and starts to take it to the Big Show, and gets some offense in before he eats a chokeslam of his own and we are out of time here on Smackdown.
