We are back in the ring with Khali continuing his attack as we get back from commercial. The crowd somehow finding the energy to chant Hardy's name.

Whisper in the Wind by Hardy! Followed by a Swanton Bomb! It's over... but wait! MVP comes out. But why!

Hardy sees MVP and pushes him off the ropes, but Khali pulls Hardy from his hair back in the ring. As MVP eggs Khali on, he locks the Khali Vice Grip on  Hardy. The ref calls for the bell.

Winner: The Great Khali


The Wright Take: Seeing Khali in a match is as entertaining as listening to a John Cena promo. Both very painful! I guess this match served two purposes. First it showed how Khali can dominate a match (and kill a crowd). Second, this furthers the Jeff Hardy and MVP, which I think is the positive out of this. Ineteresting that the WWE Champion himself Triple H did not make an appearance (most likely because of the birth of his and Stephanie's baby).


R-Truth promo airs. 


Match #5 - Maria vs. Victoria


After weeks of hype, Maria makes her Smackdown debut, looking lovely in Smackdown blue.

Her opponent Victoria makes her way to the ring. No doubt she will welcome Maria to Smackdown with arms wide open.

The match begins with Victoria using his strength against Maria. Victoria hits a series of slams and locks, but Maria keeps kicking-out.

Maria fights out of Victoria's Full-Nelson. She hits a series of kicks, and a clothesline. Off the top rope flying clothesline! Maria pins.

Winner: Maria

The Wright Take: It is GREAT to see Maria, but why should Victoria be the one doing the "job"? Maryse would of been a better opponent for Maria. I'm still waiting for Victoria's Title push! 



We see Edge talking to Alicia Fox. He tells her he wanted her to sit in the crowd, and he wants her to see his  Cutting Edge.


As we return from commercial, we get our mandatory dose of Triple H. And since he can't be there tonight, we see a very flashy video package.


Foley and J.R hype the announced WWE Summerslam matches.


Match #6 - The Big Show vs. Domino

Big Show comes down to the ring, as we go to commercial.


The Wright Take: Apparently, a Triple H promo and a Big Show entrance is way to much... we need another commercial break!


Domino is now in the ring as we get back form commercial. I have a feeling Domino will wish he was on the other side of tracks right now!

Big Show first throws Domino out of the ring, then slams him to the mat. Domino then takes off his shirt, because obviously that was the problem!

Shirt or not, Domino gets chokeslamed!

Winner: Big Show

As the ref checks on Domino, Big Show celebrates his squash victory. All of sudden, out comes the Samoan Bulldozer Umaga. As he enters the ring, the two big men stare at each other. They circle each other, sizing each other up.
