CHICAGO Fans at the Allstate Arena got a taste of the intensity to come in just 16 days at WrestleMania XXIV as the SmackDown Superstars collided in the ring, on the unforgiving concrete arena floor, and within a 15-foot-high steel cage. There is no doubt, The Granddaddy of Them All is near.
Since his comeback, Big Show has continued to demolish any opponent who has dared get in the ring with the 7-foot, 430-pound giant. Friday was no different in a match against two Superstars, as the Worlds Largest Athlete dispatched Shannon Moore with a direct punch to the head, followed by an effortless pin using his size-22 boot. Next, in what is becoming a common occurrence, the goliath pressed Jimmy Wang Yang overhead and tossed him to the arena floor to cap off his exhibition of force. After Floyd Money Mayweather suffered the same fate on Raw (WATCH), the boxing champion must be asking himself if the risk is going to be worth the reward when he does battle with Big Show in The Biggest and The Best at WrestleMania.
Mo money Speaking of the almighty dollar, the opportunity for the last spot in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match at WrestleMania was enough to turn friend into foe as WWE Tag Team Champions John Morrison and The Miz battled each other on SmackDown. A swinging neckbreaker from Morrison allowed him to pin his teammate, The Miz. (WATCH) With Morrison earning the final spot in Money in the Bank, the stage is now set for one of WWE's most coveted opportunities on The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Samoan spoiler After finally beating The Animal by count-out one week earlier, United States Champion Montel Vontavious Porter battled Batista in a No Holds Barred Title Match. The back-and-forth struggle for dominance included steel chairs, a chokehold with a neckchain, and a slam to the exposed concrete arena floor. But, the odds quickly shifted when Raws Umaga inserted himself into the match and delivered a vicious Samoan Spike to The Animal. His sneak attack left the door open for MVP to capitalize on the fallen Batista and get the pinfall. (WATCH)
Earlier in the week, Batista paid a visit to Raw where he delivered a spear to Umaga. (WATCH) After a tumultuous week, both Superstars will be looking to settle the score when they battle for brand supremacy, SmackDown vs. Raw, at WrestleMania.
Father knows best While Friday was family night for some, Finlay choked back emotion as he updated fans on his son Hornswoggles condition following a recent brutal assault from JBL. For payback for the initial injury as well as ruthlessly slapping Hornswoggle during a hospital visit the Fighting Irishman vowed to deliver a beating to JBL at WrestleMania. (WATCH)
Also on SmackDown Chuck Palumbo & The Great Khali squared off against Kane & Jamie Noble who was still nursing injured ribs, courtesy of a Big Show beating last week on SmackDown. Taking advantage of his most vulnerable opponent, Khali slammed Noble to the mat and got the easy pinfall. The match offered a preview of what is to come at WrestleMania, as all four Superstars will be part of a special 24-Man Battle Royal, featuring members of Raw, ECW and SmackDown. The winner of the over-the-top rope encounter will receive an ECW Title Match that same night against ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero.

Safety in numbers SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero stacked the deck even more in favor of her lover, World Heavyweight Champion Edge, by changing the scheduled 3-on-2 Handicap Steel Cage Match to a 4-on-2 brawl by announcing ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero would join the Ultimate Opportunists team. Along with Guerrero & Edge, Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder helped relentlessly punish Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels. After the Rated-R Superstars team wore down HBK and beat Flair to a bloody pulp, Undertaker emerged within the steel cage to shift the balance of power, but Edge still managed to find the ultimate opportunity.

MILWAUKEE After six months, seven days and countless Swanton Bombs, Jeff Hardys high-flying reign as Intercontinental Champion has finally been grounded. In a title match at the Bradley Center, the Rainbow-haired Warrior found himself dragged back down to earth by the resolute hands of Chris Jericho.
Ever since his return to competition from a two-year absence last November, Y2J has been anxious to win some gold. After tackling the challenge of the self-proclaimed wrestling god, JBL, Jericho refocused his efforts, determined to recapture that which hed held many times before, the Intercontinental Championship.
While Hardy had been on an enviable winning streak for months, his lion-hearted rival would not be rebuffed. The pair swapped blows, ascending the ropes and taking to the air throughout the match. In the end, however, the determination fixed on Y2Js face proved too overwhelming to surmount.

Caught in the Crossfire Finlay was prepared to battle Mr. Kennedy in a match pitting two former Money in the Bank participants against each other. Before the match, though, JBL did his best to rile the Irishman, who in turn was disqualified for rapping his shillelagh against the loudmouth from Green Bay, Wis., in order to send a vicious message back to JBL. These two will have one ugly meeting of the minds at WrestleMania XXIV during their Belfast Brawl. (VIDEO) (PHOTOS)
Cold Warriors In a flashback to 1985s WrestleMania I, Barry Windham & Mike Rotunda, better known as U.S. Express, were slated to tackle the menace of Nikolai Volkoff & Iron Sheik. Before the match, however, the tag teams discovered a common threat when a shrieking Jillian Hall attempted to croon the U.S. Express former entrance song, Born in the USA. Rather than endure the Divas caterwauling, Rotunda silenced the Diva with an airplane spin. (VIDEO) (PHOTOS)
Kane Unable With Randy Orton in charge of the Triple Threat Takeover this week, the current WWE Champion arranged a match between Triple H and The Games WrestleMania XV opponent, Kane.

Boy Troubles It was a beauty of a battle pitting Maria against Melina, each accompanied by their respective BunnyMania tag team partners, Candice Michelle and Beth Phoenix. The Playboy cover girl held her own until her jealous beau Santino Marella showed up ringside and tore in half her Playboy cover. The diversion allowed Melina to take advantage and roll up her stunning adversary. (VIDEO)
Weighing In At the Big Show-Floyd Mayweather weigh-in, The Worlds Largest Athlete outweighed The Greatest Fighter in the World by a daunting 300 pounds. While Show reveled in the disparity, Mayweather made it clear that he would not be intimidated.

Full story (VIDEO) (PHOTOS)

He brought Raws representative, Umaga, to the ring. But SmackDown representative, Batista, interrupted the festivities.

Takeover Turnaround Taking advantage of his Triple Threat Takeover, Randy Orton threw John Cena in a match against his WrestleMania 23 opponent, Shawn Michaels. Things didnt turn out exactly as the Legend Killer had hoped. In an attempt at throwing the victory to HBK, Orton attacked The Showstopper and then went to RKO The Champ.
