I'm going! (Don't worry, it'll be on topic in a second.) I noticed that it was coming to Wilkes-Barre (Pronounced "Wilkes Berry", not "Wilke's Bear" like every announcer except JR seems to think...) which is right next to my town (Scranton, PA! Home of the comedy "The Office"). So, I bought tickets, and I'm now waiting for the show. But, there's a problem! The commercials still list the Main Event as being Batista vs. Mark Henry. With his injury, I'm sure that Henry will not be in the ring soon/ever again. So, I was wondering, (seeing as I haven't even watched Smackdown! in weeks...) what do you think the main event will turn out as? What are the currently building feuds? Thanks in advance... (I'm aware that the show is far off, but I'm just looking for blind predictions based on what's been going on recently...)

Cool, but Slough, England is the home of the Office.

Well it'll obviously be based on the aftermath of Summerslam since it's the first tapings following the PPV. With that said, you might actually get to see the odd couple of rematches feature the show, similarly to what we saw on the first SmackDown following the Great American Bash with 3/4 of the card encored.

The dark matches should be good though. You might just see Batista vs. Booker in the end.

But the problem I see in this is SD! and ECW were said to be having different tapings now, right? Will this show still be taped in the same arena?

Well, I hope you like Undertaker and Khali, because I bet that will be the dark match main event (or those two will be involved anyway).

Well, yeah, but that's the original. The US version is based here, in Scranton. (Both versions rock!) Well, in response to you guys, When should I show up to the show then? With the show listed as starting at 7:30 PM, will the dark matches start then or before? With an hour of dark matches, 2 hours for smackdown, about 20 mins. for the ECW transition, and another hour of ECW, that'll end up being 4 hours and 20 minutes! (and my dad, who is bringing me, doesn't really care for wrestling...) P.S. What happened to Velocity? When/where do they tape that? Is it even online anymore?

I'd get there as soon as the doors open. I've been to a few WWE shows in the past and that is the best time IMO.

As for Velocity, it was removed completely when ECW was started back up.
