I went to the show! I also made a topic about what the main event was listed as. And, seeing as WWE's advertising crew is terrible, I was wrong. They said on commercials for weeks that Mark Henry would face Batista, and that was after his injury! Then, they changed it to Batista vs. King Booker for the World Heavyweight Title. That's what the commercials said on RAW this week! Silly people... The show was relatively enjoyable. I think Finlay's midget got the biggest pop... Second place goes to CM Punk's entrance, and third goes to Batista's entrance during the knighting ceremony. (Boy, Batista's pyro is loud too!) I can't wait to see if they edit in cheers for The Miz. Everyone booed him! My favorite match was actually Matt vs. Kennedy. Second for this goes to Big Show/Sabu and third goes to the dark match! (The finish was straight out of a crappy TNA match...)
Cool, but Slough, England is the home of the Office.Total-KO
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'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...)

Well, I don't know if you've seen me before, but I've definately posted here. I stopped for over a month though, but that was only because I was on another wrestling-based board (EWR). So, I'm in if you'd allow it, and I'm definately going to post if I get the chance.
