FEBRUARY 19, 2004 - SMACKDOWN!

Just ten days away from No Way Out, and a big PPV preview main-event has been booked for tonight as John Cena teams with Kurt Angle to take on Brock Lesnar and Chavo Guerrero. Plus, Edge and Rey Mysterio will team up at NWO in a triple-threat for the WWE Tag Team Titles, and tonight they have one-on-one matches with the champs, the World's Greatest Tag Team!

The show opens with Rikishi going one-on-one with The One Billy Gunn. Rikishi hits a suplex and a DDT for two. Gunn turns a sleeper into a jawbreaker, then a punch and a kick for a two-count on the big man. Big-time clothesline gets two. Billy lands a kick, but gets tripped, and Rikishi hits a powerslam for two. Discus punch from the big man gets two. Slam and a kick from Rikishi till Gunn hits a right hand and a DDT to set up for the One And Only for the win.

It's the return of Midcard Mania as Paul London captains a team consisting of Ultimo Dragon, A-Train, Shannon Moore, and Scotty 2 Hotty to take on John Layfield's team of Carlito, Chris Kanyon, Chuck Palumbo, and Nunzio. Carlito, Palumbo, and Nunzio isolate Moore early until he can tag in Scotty, but Palumbo, Kanyon, Layfield, and Carlito work him over. Finally Scotty hot-tag A-Train, who hits a neckbreaker and a DDT on Carlito before tagging in Dragon for a double clothesline. Dragon hits a springboard dropkick and tags in London. Dragon and London use quick back-and-forth tags to work on Palumbo until Palumbo overpowers Dragon and tags Layfield back in. Train tags back in, and Layfield winds up hitting him with the Clothesline From Hell for the win!

Eddie Guerrero is backstage, preparing for his match later, but he has some words for Billy Kidman. He knows Kidman hasn't forgotten that Eddie was the one who took his Cruiserweight Title, and he knows that their paths will cross soon. But he also wants Kidman to know that he knows. He has a big match with Sean O'Haire at No Way Out, but he's not dumb enough to think that Kidman's going to stay out of it. Kidman is a liar, a cheat, and a thief, three things that Eddie knows a thing or two about.

It's a battle of ECW alumni next as the red-hot Rhyno takes on the Japanese Buzzsaw Tajiri. Rhyno hits a forearm, a headbutt, and a pair of back elbows until Tajiri takes to the air with a flying axehandle and a seated senton for two. Rhyno turns a backdrop attempt into a bulldog for two, then hits a shoulder slam. Tajiri reverses a hiptoss and lands some strikes, but Rhyno slams him down, then as he regains his feet, he nails him with the GOOOOOOOOORE! Very good match, and the crowd was hot for it. These guys are both on the verge of breaking through.

Up next, it's Charlie Haas against Edge in our first Tag Title match preview. Edge hits a forearm, but eats Haas' foot on an avalanche attempt. Haas smacks Edge around, then hits a suplex variation for two. Edge hits a running knee lift and a piledriver for two. Edge hits a powerbomb for a very long two, but Haas gets two on a bulldog. Edge manages to hit the Edgecutioner for the win, then they shake hands afterwards.

Sean O'Haire is out next for his match, but first he has some words for Chris Benoit. Has he gotten into Benoit's head? Last week, Benoit assaulted him after the main event with a chair and beat him so badly, he almost wasn't able to compete tonight. Have O'Haire's comments been hitting too close to home? Or is the real Chris Benoit finally starting to show himself? Chris already knows the answer, so O'Haire isn't going to tell him anything he doesn't already know.

O'Haire's partner Big Show is out next for a tag match against Eddie Guerrero and Undertaker. Eddie hits a dropkick on Show, then a huge super Frankensteiner for two. Tag to UT for a double suplex, then UT hits a flying shoulder tackle for two. UT smacks Show around, but Show blocks a kick and hits a side suplex. Tag to O'Haire, and now O'Haire hits a shoulder tackle. Bulldog from O'Haire, and UT tags in Eddie. Eddie hits a Whippersnapper for a very long two. Dropkick by Eddie, but O'Haire backdrops him out of a piledriver. O'Haire hits a piledriver of his own, then finishes him off with the Prophecy. O'Haire has picked up a clean victory over the US Champion just ten days before their title match!

Five weeks ago, as part of the Chase For The Championship, Chris Benoit and Billy Kidman eliminated each other by fighting to a time-limit draw. Tonight, they go at it again! Kidman hits a back suplex and a thump for two. Benoit hits a forearm and a butterfly suplex for two, then a double arm suplex for another long two. Benoit hits a thrust kick, but Kidman ducks a clothesline and hits a spinning bulldog for two. Springboard dropkick for a long two, then another pair of dropkicks until Benoit hits a thrust kick to the midsection to set up a top-rope back suplex. Before Benoit can crawl over to make the pin, the bell rings. They've again reached the time limit! Benoit pulls Kidman up and shakes his hand, but Kidman pulls him in and slams him to the mat! Kidman heads to the top rope and hits the Shooting Star Press!

Stephanie McMahon appears on the TitanTron and says that she's going to give these two one last shot at a clean finish. At No Way Out, it's going to be Chris Benoit against Billy Kidman, one fall, there must be a winner!

And now it's time for Rey Mysterio against Shelton Benjamin in our second Tag Title match preview. Rey starts off with a spin kick, but Shelton backdrops him and slams him. Shelton hits a big powerbomb, but Rey gets up and kicks him in the face. Another kick gets two, then a top-rope DDT for two more. Shelton slams Rey down for a long two, but Rey hits the West Coast Pop for the win! Afterwards, they shake hands. Edge and Rey Mysterio both picked up clean wins over the champions. Does this make them the favorites going into No Way Out?

Tonight's main event mashes together two of SmackDown!'s biggest rivalries as John Cena teams with Kurt Angle to take on Brock Lesnar and Chavo Guerreor. Cena and Lesnar start the match, and the champ takes control early with a suplex and a neckbreaker for two. Tag to Chavo for a double suplex for two more. Chavo hits a flying elbow, but gets speared for two. Tag to Angle, who powerbombs Chavo for two. Running knee lift from Angle, but Chavo hits a flying axehandle to create the separation to tag in Lesnar. Lesnar punches away at Angle until Cena tags back in, only to get backdropped. Cena tries for a roll-up, but Lesnar rolls through and grabs Cena's tights. The ref doesn't see it! Lesnar steals one from Cena, but they're not done fighting. All four men brawl up the ramp and to the back as SmackDown! goes off the air.

The No Way Out card is set! We've known for weeks about the huge tag-team main event pitting John Cena and RAW's The Rock against Brock Lesnar and RAW's Shawn Michaels! Plus, the SmackDown! side hosts a huge United States Title match with Eddie Guerrero against Sean O'Haire, Kurt Angle versus Chavo Guerrero, a triple threat match for the WWE Tag Team Titles pitting the World's Greatest Tag Team against Edge and Rey Mysterio and the unlikely duo of Undertaker and Big Show, and tonight we found out that Chris Benoit will once again take on Billy Kidman! So we know the card, what is going to happen next week on the last televised show before No Way Out?
