WWE Smackdown Results For 10/24/02 (Taped 10/22/02)
Matt Hardy vs. Rikishi
Good wrestling on Mattitude�s part throughout the whole match. Ever since he has become a singles competitor he has improved a lot. Matt counters a stink face with a low blow. Rikishi again goes through his exact same move sets but I was very surprised to see the Rikishi Driver, which he got for the 1-2-3.

Winner: Rikishi

Rikishi celebrates with some dancing. Big Show comes down to take out Rikishi and hits a huge chokesalm. Show gets on the mic and tells us how big he is and says nobody can take him and how he is to prove he is a big bad man. Show then goes on to challenge Brock, calls him a coward and states Brock doesn�t have the guts to face him.

Brock and Heyman entering the arena.

Stephanie is in the ring saying how great SmackDown already is. Next to Stephanie she has a huge trophy for the new tag champs. Angle comes out with a new shirt that says submit. Benoit comes out next with a decent pop. Angle says how he was glad Stephanie forced him and Benoit together so he could single handedly lead his team to victory. Angle says he won the freakin match so he is the captain and Benoit is just the supporting cast. Benoit tells Angle to leave his ego behind and Benoit and how he is the captain of the team. They both start to fight over the trophy it breaks and nails Stephanie in the head. Stephanie slaps Angle after he helps her up and Benoit laughs then slaps Benoit and calls them children. Tells them since they can�t get along they can fight and the winner keeps the trophy.

WWE CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Jamie Noble (c) w/ Nidia vs. Tajiri
Noble comes out looking like a white trash Elvis. Noble gets on the mic and does a horrible Elvis impression. This match gets off to a very fast start. Tajiri grabs the Elvis glasses and does a funny impression. Tajiri is serving up some brutal kicks. Nidia helps out Noble with some outside interference. Tajiri sells his left ankle being hurt and Noble works on that a little. Noble wins with a roll up/bridge and uses Nidia�s arms for leverage.

Winner & STILL Cruiserweight Champion: Jamie Noble

Dawn Marie is shown walking around backstage looking for Torrie.

Dawn Marie finds Torrie and talks about her relationship with her dad blah�blah.

Angle and the Guerrero�s are in the backstage telling Angle that Benoit wanted the Guerrero�s to set him up.

Edge & Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie & Chavo Guerrero
Rey whips edge to the turnbuckle to nail a spear on Chavo. Then Edge whips Rey into the corner and hits a bronco- buster. (Why would they do that lets be happy X-Pac is gone don�t relive any of his gay moves.) The Guerrero�s continue to impress as a team. A few Eddie sucks chants throughout the match. Rey goes on a nice roll and goes for the 619 misses and falls out of the ring. Edge then spears chavo. Rey then hits the 619. Edge puts Chavo on his shoulders and Rey hits a leg drop off the top rope Edge goes for the pin and Eddie breaks up the pin with a flip from the outside. Edge then hits a spear on Chavo and Rey hits another leg drop from the top rope. Edge pins Chavo and Eddie starts celebrating because he thinks that he won.

Winners: Rey Mysterio & Edge

Taker enters the arena and says that he will be waiting for Brock in the ring.

(Recap of Hell in a Cell with a very cool package about how Brock is the man.)

Undertaker comes to the ring limping and grabs the mic and calls out Brock. Paul Heyman comes out and tells about hoe Brock took out Hogan, beat the Rock and took out Taker. Lesnar comes out and pushes Heyman out of the ring and confronts the Undertaker. Taker talks about how people are telling him if you weren�t hurt you would have beat Brock. Taker gives Brock props for beating him but Taker says no matter what five years ago he would have beat his ass. Taker says he has fought the best and beat the best and on Sunday Brock was the best. Brock says he needed an Edge to fight the Undertaker that is why he brought his personal life into it. Taker then says, "after 12 years in this business my body����.." Big Show interrupts and is pissed that Taker said Brock is the best. Big Show says because of Show Brock won because for the last two years Show has been busting Taker up that�s why he is a broken down has been. Taker tells Show I�d rather be a broken down has been than a giant that never was. Show then follows Taker up the ramp and big show then leaves. Big Show comes back and picks up Taker over his head and throws him off the stage.

Taker is still on the ground with medical people assisting him. Michael Cole thinks that Takers neck may have snapped. Come on Cole that is ridiculous it was a cheesy bump. Taker then gets up and tries to get and fight off any help and walks away under his own power. A way too drawn out segment, it wasn�t even believable that it hurt. I know he needs time off but can�t they injure him off any better.

Dawn Marie is looking for Torrie�s dirty old man of a dad. Dawn says that she wants to break things off but says he was the best. Blah�.blah�blah.

Billy Kidman vs. John Cena

A very boring match, for the most part. Cena looked confused the whole time. Kidman wins with a roll up and uses the ropes like Cena did last week. Cena then attacks Kidman. Have you noticed like 90% of Cena�s matches end with a roll up.

Winner: Billy Kidman

Brock gets interviewed about the Big Show. Brock asks where Funaki is and tells the reporter to tell Funaki hi. Brock says he will give Big Show is answer.

The Guerrero�s come to Benoit and says that he wants to make up with Benoit. Benoit seems to accept.

Big Show goes to Brock�s locker room and finds Heyman. Heyman kisses Shows ass and says he can�t have a shot at Brock. Then Brock Tells Show that he can have a title shot.

Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit
This match is a very technically sound. There was a lot of actual wrestling in the beginning. It seems to be that Benoit will be pushed as a face even though there was some speculation Angle would turn face. Who knows? Benoit suplexes Angle and looks like a broke his neck. Benoit then goes for the head butt. Angle kicks out of the pin and gets locked into the cross face angle counters into the ankle lock. Angle connects the Angle slam, Benoit kicks out. The Guerrero�s come out and attack Angle and Benoit gets the roll up for the win. Benoit seems pissed the Guerrero's helped him. Angle of course isn�t having this and Angle slams Benoit and starts destroying the trophy.

Winner: Chris Benoit
