Drew McIntyre & Eric Escobar def. Matt Hardy & R-Truth (PHOTOS | WATCH) Though McIntyre and Escobar are relatively new to the SmackDown roster, the two young Superstars proved why they deserve to be on the Friday night team heading into this Sunday by defeating two notable opponents in Matt Hardy & R-Truth. Despite Hardy & Truth giving it their all, it was a distraction by Vickie Guerrero and a cheap shot by Escobar that made the difference, allowing McIntyre to hit a Double-Arm DDT on Matt and pick up the pin to earn his team the victory.
Tommy Dreamer & Goldust def. Vladimir Kozlov & Ezekiel Jackson (PHOTOS | WATCH) In recent months, the team of Kozlov & Jackson has dominated Tuesday nights, but on this weeks WWE Superstars, The ECW Original & The Bizarre One showed that their opponents were still only human as Goldust caught Kozlov off-guard with the Golden Age and picked up the win for his team. Unfortunately for the victors, the spoils were not theirs to be had. Instead, The Moscow Mauler & Big Zeke viciously attacked the duo following the match, reminding them that Kozlov & Jackson are looking to dominate the WWE, and have the means to do just that.
Kelly Kelly def. Gail Kim (PHOTOS | WATCH) Just days before both Raw beauties join Divas Champion Melina to face SmackDowns Womens Champion Michelle McCool, Beth Phoenix & Natalya at WWE Bragging Rights, Kelly was able to beat Gail in what might be seen as a warm-up match. Both ladies showed exactly why they are two of the three Divas representing Raw this Sunday, but in the end, a miscue by Gail left it open for Kelly Kelly to nail the Kelly Killer and get the 1-2-3 over her sexy, smart and powerful teammate.
Shad Gaspard of Cryme Tyme posted the following on his MySpace page regarding his getting ill and not wrestling this past Tuesday at the Smackdown taping:
Ok before this thing gets out of hands let me set the record straight. This past Monday I got sick while traveling from Mexico to the US. On Tuesday my symptoms increased drastically to body pains, headaches, vomiting, diarrhea, and nausea. I tried several over the counter medicines that temporarily worked, but didnt help in the long run.
Finally I went to or WWE doctor who prescribed to give me a shot of Phenergan, which should have worked. Unforchantly it made me drowsy and brought on cold chills. The office thought it best I leave than try to perform. I spent Tuesday night in my hotel room vomiting and dealing with bad diarrheaa all night (Trust me no one ells was near or around me). When I got back home I dealt with the same symptom all day as my girl helped me get better bye taking what our family physician prescribed, and getting rest.....
Ive never let being sick ever keep me from performing, Ive worked sick, hurt, and injured before on live events, TV tapings, and Pay Per Views, I just never let no one excluding my partner know how I felt or what I was going through. I apologies to my tag team partner, the participants in my match and the WWE universe, I should have found out all the information about what was given to me before I took it, and prevented my self from getting sick in the first place.
I take full responsibility for what happened and Im sorry. In our industry there is a tradition that the show must go on no mater what, and I feel I have betrayed that tradition bye not performing last Tuesday. The greatest joy in my life is performing in the WWE (Win, Lose or Draw), I love what I do, and I will never let something like this happen agene.
Edge called into the Bubba the Love Sponge Show yesterday and said the Achilles tendon tear he suffered back in July was the most painful injury of his career yet. He added he does not know yet when he will be able to return to the ring.
During his appearance, Bubba asked him when his contract with WWE expires, to which he replied next June. He said while he's a homegrown guy, "he likes competition." However, he then made sure to note that "WWE is the NFL of wrestling."
When asked about Shane McMahon leaving the company, he said he was really surprised. He said it's really hard to work with Vince McMahon and be his son at the same time.
Edge put over Christian, John Cena and Randy Orton. He said watching Orton is like watching a horror show, but in a good way. He also feels Cena is a workhorse and having Christian on ECW was a good move.
When asked to comment on former flame Lita, he simply said she's out of the business.
As of this week, nobody who is talking within WWE has any idea what caused Shane McMahon's resignation from WWE or what he plans on doing next. People who worked under Shane are said to be shocked and devastated, saying it came completely out of left field. The department that Shane was in charge of always has had great morale and word is that all the good morale plummeted on Friday when the announcement came out. A lot of people were very worried about their future with the company and there was talk that layoffs might be coming.
Shane was flooded with calls over the weekend and he pretty much told everyone the same thing he said in his official statement. It is very likely that the only people who know what is going on are Shane, Vince McMahon and perhaps Linda or Stephanie. Even people who spoke with Triple H had the impression that he didn't know really what went down.
PWTorch.com is reporting that there is growing concern backstage for Smackdown rookie Eric Escobar. Apparently Escobar developed a reputation for being a "headcase" while he was teaming with Primo Colon in developmental, and that stigma continues to follow him now that he has been called up to the main roster.
Apparently, WWE is pulling footage of TNA broadcasts that feature current and ex-WWE wrestlers from YouTube. In one instance, WWE has pulled YouTube footage of Christian at TNA's Victory Road PPV from last year now that Christian has re-signed with WWE.
- Carlito is off WWE TV right now because the creative team has nothing for him. The feeling is that he doesn't care too much these days and creative would rather spend more time with people that are actually contributing ideas.
During an interview with the major Mexican newspaper El Universal previewing this past weekends tour of the country, Batista said WWE has been wasting the talents of one Rey Mysterio. He feels Mysterio should be at the level of the biggest stars of the company.
John Cena will be off house shows during the month of December in order to film his next movie, Oxleys Road. This straight-to-DVD project has Cena playing the role of a pro wrestler whose younger brother is trying to make it as a high school wrestler.
According to a report from the New York Daily News, Hulk Hogan reveals in his new book entitled "My Life Outside the Ring" that he would have committed suicide after breaking up with Linda and coping with Nick's car accident had it not been for a call from the daughter of boxing great Muhammad Ali.
Hogan claims it was Ali, Muhammad Ali's daughter, that prevented him from pulling the trigger on a gun after he had downed a cocktail of Xanax and rum. According to Hogan, Ali said she called after noticing he had been looking distracted at work. Hogan says in the book he had his finger on the trigger when Ali called.
Hogan also talks about how he begged Linda not to file divorce and said Linda's behavior was not documented on television.
The Wrestling Observer reports that Ken Kennedy Andersons people are advising him not to sign anywhere right now (including TNA) with the idea that if he works for Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff on their tour, then Vince McMahon will want to bring him back to WWE.
Booker T is believed to be finished with TNA after his current deal expires next month and he's not expected to work any more matches. Sources say Booker was unhappy with the contract offer TNA made him and that unhappiness is what led to issues between him and TNA in recent weeks.
Sources close to Booker now indicate that he plans to take some time off from wrestling and isn't looking to return to WWE right away. Word is that Booker may make some international appearances if the money is right but he plans on just taking some time off for himself and working on his PWA promotion in Texas.
In an update to and earlier post concerning Chris Sabin's injury suffered during tonight's TNA Impact taping, ProWrestling.net is reporting that Sabin is alright after suffering what is now believed to be a stinger.
Additionally, it's being reported that Kevin Nash, as well as cutting a promo on TNA for not stopping the match, also yelled Team 3D backstage following the match, telling them that they should stop the match because it was obviously that Sabin was injured. Furthermore, Nash felt that Team 3D, being veterans, should have held Sabin's health as the number one priority during the match. It is being said, however, that there is no heat on Team 3D within TNA management as the incident was recognized as an accident.
According to Mike Johnson, Nigel McGuinness has signed a two-year deal with TNA. It is believed that WWE backed out of their offer after getting the results of a physical test that McGuinness took. Apparently, it was McGuinness that reached out to TNA and not the other way around.
At this point, Bryan Danielson has passed his drugs/physical test and still expected to be signing with WWE.

Yoshi Tatsu def. Zack Ryder Sheamus vs. local competitor ECW Champion Christian def. Unified Tag Team Champion Chris Jericho (Non-Title Match)
COLUMBIA, S.C. Unified Tag Team Champion Chris Jericho took a trip to the Land of the Extreme Tuesday night. While the SmackDown Superstar came to ECW to scout for talent to join his WWE Bragging Rights team, ECW General Manager Tiffany had another idea for Jericho.
ECW Champion Christian def. Unified Tag Team Champion Chris Jericho (Non-Title Match) (PHOTOS | WATCH) Unified Tag Team Champion Chris Jericho joined ECW on Syfy this week, but his plans to recruit members for the SmackDown Team for the WWE Bragging Rights Tag Team Match quickly went awry. After interrupting The Abraham Washington Show (WATCH) and Rosa Mendes ECW debut, ECW General Manager Tiffany denied Jerichos request to scout for talent. (WATCH) Later, the tag champ conspired with William Regal to allow Ezekiel Jackson and Vladimir Kozlov to join his SmackDown Team Sunday, but Tiffany stopped the disrespectful Jerichos scheme and ordered him to face ECW Champion Christian later that night. (WATCH)
In Tuesdays main event, Captain Charisma gave Jericho a little taste of what the Land of the Extreme had to offer. The former World Tag Team Champions hadn't faced each other in six years. Jerichos night of talent-seeking backfired when he met the ECW Champion in one-on-one action. After a devastating Killswitch, Christian pinned the Unified Tag Team Champion for the monumental victory on ECW on Syfy.
Yoshi Tatsu def. Zack Ryder (PHOTOS | WATCH) Yoshi Tatsus winning streak continued this week on ECW on Syfy. The Japanese Superstar was victorious over Zack Ryder, earning himself a future ECW Championship Match! Tatsu was overjoyed by his win over the brash, cocky, Long Island, N.Y.-bred Superstar, unabashedly celebrating while the WWE Universe in the Colonial Life Arena cheered.
New No. 1 contender Tatsu will fight Christian for the Extreme Title on next week's ECW on Syfy! Will the Japanese Superstars winning streak continue when he faces ECW Champion Christian for the gold? Watch ECW on Syfy Tuesday night at 10/9 CT.
Sheamus vs. local competitor (PHOTOS | WATCH) The Celtic Warrior met a local competitor in singles action on ECW on Syfy, but their match was interrupted by none other than Sheamus enemy, Shelton Benjamin. The Gold Standard, angry about Sheamus proclamation last week that hell stop at nothing to annihilate him, stormed into the ring and attacked his rival, causing the match to end in a no-contest. After the assault, a stunned Sheamus grasped the back of his head and stumbled up the ramp as an irate Benjamin watched.
Whats next for Sheamus and Benjamin? When will these two Extreme Superstars meet again in the ring?
Paul Burchill confronts The Hurricane (PHOTOS | WATCH) After defeating The Hurricane last week on ECW, Paul Burchill demanded that Gregory Helms unmask himself as The Hurricane in front of the WWE Universe. After The Hurricane entered the ring and began to remove his mask, Burchill and his sister, Katie Lea, were stunned to see it was an imposter. Moments later, The Hurricane appeared from under the ECW ring and attacked Burchill with The Hurri-Cane. The shocked brother and sister duo retreated up the ramp, allowing the masked Superstar to get the last laugh this time.
Will Burchill ever be able to prove his theory that Helms and The Hurricane are one in the same? When will these rivals meet again in the ECW ring?
CM Punk was featured in an interview with TheState.com this morning to help promote the WWE Smackdown/ECW taping in Columbia, South Carolina. One topic covered was Punk's dream Wrestlemania opponent:
"Last year, before I was in the MITB match, it was Rey (Mysterio), Punk said. "This year, it's still Rey. Mania is a long ways away right now, so it's hard to say where I'll end up, but I do need a haircut."
The following is an excerpt from an article from Chron.com:
Former wrestler details her very close call
By KEN HOFFMAN Copyright 2009 HOUSTON CHRONICLE Oct. 19, 2009, 5:19PM
Torrie Wilson, the former WWE diva who now runs a clothing store called Jaded in The Woodlands, scared the pants off her fans last week by tweeting
Big scare for me tonight. I was in the emergency room. Thought I was heading up to Heaven for a minute there. Thanks for letting me stay a little longer, Jesus!
That's all she wrote.
Here's what actually happened that night.
She was visiting her brother in San Diego when
I had a bad reaction to medicine because of a thyroid problem I have had for years, and my heart was starting to shut down on me. This was combined with the newfound discovery that I have an abnormally slow heartbeat. By the time I reluctantly went to the doctor, I was rushed to the emergency room with numb arms and legs and blue hands. I was extremely dizzy and nauseous. I still didn't take this seriously until the doctor started freaking out on me, Wilson said.
I had a horribly close call, and I'm ashamed to admit that I Twittered' about it hours after I was out of the hospital because I was so flabbergasted at what happened! I guess I forgot how many people actually pay attention to me, Wilson said.
I believe the proper word would be Tweeted.
She continued. I was not taking prescription pain pills and anything crazy like the Internet rumors said. It's horrifying that all those crazy people accuse me of that just because I used to be a wrestler. Who knows what would have happened if I didn't go to the emergency room? It's a scary thought. My heart rate was 30 per minute and slowing when I finally got help. I will never take medication without doing research on possible adverse reactions. In a nutshell, that's what happened.
