After Bragging Rights this past Sunday in which Smackdown proved that they were the better brand in the WWE, one would have to think that Smackdown General Manager Teddy Long would be off probation. At the start of last night's Smackdown, he was bragging (pardon the expression) about Team Smackdown's victory.


"As he was continuing to talk about Team Smackdown's victory, here comes Chris Jericho with the Bragging Rights trophy, telling Long  that  he was the one that carried Team Smackdown to victory at Bragging Rights all by himself and that he should be the one getting a crack at The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series.



"But Jericho who as always, was letting his ego get the best of him, has to realize that he had a co-captain in the Big Red Monster, Kane. And he too made claim that he should challenge The Undertaker at Survivor Series for the World Heavyweight Championship, and just as Kane was ready to chokeslam Jericho, Long stopped him and told them that if Raw was going to have a Triple Threat Match for the WWE Championship, then Smackdown should have a Triple Threat match for the World Heavyweight Championship, so Long made a match between Chris Jericho and Kane and the winner would get the 3rd slot in Smackdown's Triple Threat match.


"But that didn't sit right with CM Punk, who has been so hellbent on getting back the World Heavyweight Championship ever since he lost it to The Undertaker back at Hell in a Cell. And After last week's plan backfired in order to get back the World Heavyweight Championship, Punk was furious as ever, so just when he demanded another World Heavyweight Championship match, Vince McMahon told him no. But he did something else, and that's put Punk in a match against referee Scott Armstrong.


"OMG, here we go with another Charles Robinson situation from last year, and from back when Kurt Angle was the Smackdown General Manager.



"I will say this, Armstrong was not ready to back down from Punk  as he was hitting him with some good punches. As I was watching this match, it brings to mind if he ever had a boxing background. But it wasn't enough as Punk was fighting back, leaving Armstrong at his mercy as well as putting him away with the GTS.



"Back to the main event, in which Chris Jericho took on Kane with the winner getting a spot in the Triple Threat match at Survivor Series. Kane had the size and weight advantage going into this match, and not to mention the fact he is the Undertaker's Brother, so he knows him better than any WWE Superstar.



"But in the end, it was Chris Jericho that made a comeback and put away the Big Red Monster with a Codebreaker to get the win, and at Survivor Series it will be the Undertaker defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Chris Jericho and the Big Show, and I'm wondering if there will be a lot more friction among the Unified WWE Tag Team Champions leading up to Survivor Series. We will have to see as the weeks progress in the WWE.


"2 weeks ago, Matt Hardy had a match against Eric Escobar for a spot on Team Smackdown, but last week, if you remember, all of that changed, and that's all I got to say about that.



"Last night, Hardy and Escobar had their rematch, and did you see Vickie Guerrero's (blech!) costume, calling herself Princess Vickie Guerrero? I call her the wicked witch of World Wrestling Entertainment.



"Hardy and Escobar were in a hard fought match last night, and despite getting his knee injured by Escobar, Matt Hardy fought back and handed him his first singles defeat.



"Drew McIntyre has to have a huge head on his shoulders. Anybody would have a huge head on his shoulders if Vince McMahon signs you to either Raw or Smackdown and says that person will be a future World Champion.



"Drew McIntyre was supposed to have a match last night against Finlay, which was declared a no contest when he attacked Finlay before the match got started. This brutal assault on Finlay was McIntyre's way of saying thattThe party has just begun.




"Even though Team Smackdown won the Bragging Rights trophy, John Morrison was the only one that did not win his Smackdown vs Raw match. But that didn't stop him from doing what he does best against Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler hasn't had a chance at the Intercontinental Championship since Hell In a Cell, and this was a perfect chance for him to get another chance at the title. What another great match this was, and Morrison was once again set to prove why that he is the Guru of Greatness as he went for Starship Pain, but Ziggler exited the ring and Morrison went after Ziggler. Ziggler was using his quick thinking and hid under the announce table to get the win by a count out.


HEADS UP FOR YOU GUYS:

"This Tuesday night on My Network TV, Dolph Ziggler along with Eve and Maria and going to be on a special WWE edition of Deal Or No Deal this Tuesday night at 9/8c on My Network TV.


"Back to Smackdown, in which the whole WWE Universe as well as Rey Mysterio wants an explanation from Batista as to why he did what he did this past Sunday night at Bragging Rights.



"Mysterio was trying to rectify the situation, but the Animal wanted no part of it and demanded that Mysterio leave the ring, but the Master of the 619 wouldn't do it, and once again was trying to make things right again, but again, the Animal refused, and he was the one that walked away.


"Back in the locker room, Matt Hardy confronted the Animal and told him to think about what he was doing. The Animal's response was attacking Matt Hardy and sending him into the chain link fence.



"As a result of this, next week on Friday Night Smackdown, it will be the Animal, Batista taking on Matt Hardy.



"The Glamazon, Beth Phoenix had her first match on Smackdown last night against Jenny Brooks, a local athlete. Let's say this, the way that she handled miss Brooks last night was her way of sending a message to Michelle McCool that she will without a doubt be a threat to her WWE Women's Championship.



"Cryme Tyme hosted a Diva's Halloween Costume Contest, and here is how the Divas were dressed.

Natalya- A Bull Fighter
Layla-Micheal Jackson
Michelle McCool-The Devil's Advocate
Mickie James-Elektra


"After all the Divas were done showing off their costumes, it was Mickie James who was the winner."

Well, what an exciting Hallow's Eve, huh?
