Smackdown starts with Batista attacking Kennedy backstage, getting quite a number of boos. Finlay comes to help Batista, and as Kennedy took over, the crowd cheered. They fought from backstage to down the aisle. And when the bell tolls, the lights go off, and turn back on again - Undertaker was standing in the middle of the ring. Lights off, Lights on, Taker is gone. Finlay and Kennedy run backstage, Batista slowly follows.

Backstage, Kennedy and Finlay say to Teddy that Batista vs Taker should be tonight, and not at Backlash. Long makes the match Undertaker and Batista vs Kennedy and Finlay in a no DQ match for later.

Kane and Boogeyman vs Regal and Taylor: Lots of cheers for Regal, and "let's go Regal" chants. Taylor and Regal work Kane for most of the match, before Kane finally tags the boogeyman, which got huge cheers. Boogeyman does a few moves to Regal before pinning him after a double handed, sit down chokeslam. After the match, Boogeyman offers Kane some worms (tells him to eat them off the ground, but Kane laughed and declined) Nice opener.

Brian Kendrick vs Deuce: Both come down with their respective partners. Not an exciting match.. Quite a lot of headlocks at the start. Finish saw Domino beat on London, distracting Kendrick, and he walked into a flying kick from Deuce. Deuce pins for the win.

Jillian vs Michelle McCool: Jillian says that now that Prince William is single, he should give her a call sometime, before starting her singing... it's 10 times as bad and as piercing as on TV. Michelle McCool comes down to stop it. Not a bad woman's match to be honest, McCool is a decent wrestler and did minimal Diva moves like hair pulling and tossing. Jillian gets the victory and starts singing again, but McCool knocks her out.

MVP vs Jobber: MVP came down to a fair few cheers, but the start of his promo was hard to hear due to the amount of boos. He introduced a Scottish champion. Jobber comes out in William Wallace gear and facepaint before being squashed. MVP is about to announce his second opponent when Chris Benoit comes down to huge cheers and challenges him to a match.

MVP vs Benoit: Nice back and forth match, MVP leaves after escaping his secnd crossface, resulting in a count out.

Backstage, Teddy and Krystal proclaim their love for one another and say how they want to spend more time together. Teddy says he's going to give someone a lot more responsability so that he can take time off to be with her.

Finlay and Kennedy vs Batista and Taker: Taker's entrance gets huge cheers. Nice tag match, Old School to Kennedy then immidiately to Finlay. The the end sees Taker chokeslam both Finaly and Kennedy, but Batista comes in with a spinebuster to Finlay to secure the pin. Batista gets on the mic and says he is taking the title back at Backlash.

Mr. Kennedy hit the ring to open the show. He put over his WrestleMania win and that he was Mr. Money in the Bank. He said the Kennedy era had now began. This led to a match with Jeff Hardy, which was a really cool match with some good spots. Kennedy got the win after a neckbreaker.

Kane beat David Taylor. Not sure if they announced this as a no-contest or not. Regardless, Taylor got destroyed by Kane, who the crowd were totally into.

Paul London and Brian Kendrick beat Chavo Guerrero and Gregory Helms. Match of the night by far, and this wouldn’t have looked out of place on Sunday’s PPV. Deuce and Domino (with Cherry) watched on at ringside.

The Undertaker came to the ring, with a big entrance complete with druids. The crowd loved this. Batista hit the ring, and congratulated Undertaker on his WrestleMania win. Then he left.

The crowd wasn't too much into it other than booing MNM... Kendrick & London win.

Chavo vs. Jimmy Wang Yang in a non-title contest.
Wang Yang wins with his moonsault.

MVP comes out and announces he will face the Heavyweight Champion of Lictenstein (who actually is a local wrestler named Johnny Gargano). MVP obviously wins in a squash.

Kennedy & Orton vs. Lashley in a Tables Match
Bobby controlled most of the match. He put Kennedy through a table in the corner, and tried to put Orton through a table doing a running powerslam but he just fell on top of the table. Lashley picked him up again, but this time the leg gave way and it barely broke. The ref rang the bell. And in an odd situation Lashley brought out another table, and did a better powerslam through the table as they rang the bell again. Looks like they will probably edit out the flub.

Chris Benoit vs. Helms
Benoit wins in basically a squash.

Booker and Finlay attack Batista backstage, but the feed looked like it was lost. So they may reshoot.

Booker and Finlay vs. Batista and Undertaker
Only Taker came out as Batista was already attacked. Back and forth until Finlay decided to use the shileighlei and get them DQed. Booker and Finlay pound on Taker until Batista comes out to help.

Smackdown opened with Batista doing an interview. Fans were with him except when he made Undertaker references, and then he was booed. Same stuff as before, talking about how he's not intimidated but still being a face. Undertaker's music played but he only appeared on the screen cutting a promo. Undertaker's reaction was far bigger than Batista's.

Money in the bank qualifier: Matt Hardy b Joey Mercury with a twist of fate off the ropes in 10:48. Booker was doing commentary and Hardy made the same climbing the ladder motion that Punk did during ECW.

Jimmy Yang & Shannon Moore & Scotty 2 Hotty b Chavo Guerrero & Gregory Helms & Daivari when Yang pinned Daivari with a moonsault bodyblock. Helms and Yang were a solid level or two above everyone else here. Good match.

Vince McMahon was out and had red hot heat. They showed the clip of Lashley doing the flying tackle through the cage on Umaga from ECW. He plugged they would announce the special referee on RAW on Monday. Lashley came out and got in Vince's face. Vince told Lashley he'd pay him double whatever Trump was paying him to back out of the match. Lashley of course declined. Vince slapped him in the face and as Lashley got a crazed look, Vince ran away.

Backstage, Mr. Kennedy wanted a shot at Lashley. Vince ordered a match where Kennedy couldn't be DQ'd or counted out, but Lashley could, and the title was at stake.

Ashley b Jillian with an elbow off the middle rope in 2:26. No matter how hard they push her, Ashley Massaro just isn't that popular. Jillian did her Brooke Hogan impersonation before the match.

Fit Finlay won the Money in the bank qualifier over MVP and Chris Benoit in 9:04. Benoit was excellent here, doing all his signature stuff and carrying the match. It wasn't Benoit vs. Finlay level, but MVP didn't hurt the match either. Finish saw Hornswoggle (before the match Finlay explained that was his name) distract the ref. Finlay hit both men with the shillelagh and pinned Benoit.

Lashley b Kennedy with the Oklahoma Stampede. Kennedy used a low blow, tights, chair to the head all to no avail as Lashley kept kicking out. Lashley really didn't look so hot, but they'll probably be able to cover for him in post-editing. Lashley isn't quite as popular as he should be given his push, but he was the at the level below the top guys.

Mysterio calls Vince a loser, so Vince brings out Umaga.

Umaga attacks Mysterio and then finishes him off with a splash from the top rope on his legs. Mysterio is carried off on a stretcher.
