SmackDown! ? Friday 9th November 2007
Match One
Kenny Dykstra faced Chuck Palumbo last week and narrowly lost but this week he has challenged the nature boy Ric Flair. He claims that Flair?s time has passed and he should now be the future and the top star on SmackDown! The match was a domination and lesson from Ric Flair with chops galore and work on Dykstra?s legs perhaps preparing him for the Figure Four but Dykstra saw one to many moves coming and was able to reverse a clothesline attempt into a school boy roll up and he grabbed the tights for a cheap victory! Kenny has defeated the nature boy!

Theodore Long enters the ring which has red carpet and a table with a clipboard, pen and a piece of paper on it. He then introduces the challenger Edge and gets him to sign before introducing the World Heavyweight Champion Batista who gets the biggest pop of the evening by a long way. He then signs instantly and Edge starts saying that Batista is not worthy of being the champion and at Survivor Series he won?t have to represent SmackDown anymore because the Rated R era will begin. Batista finally hears enough and hammers Edge in the head with the microphone before Batista bombing him through the contract signing table and leaving Edge in a heap on the canvas.
