MARCH 18, 2004 - SMACKDOWN!

Three nights ago, the WWE Draft kicked off, and the SmackDown! roster took a massive hit as RAW stole the WWE Tag Team Champions and the United States Champion voluntarily jumped ship to the red brand. Tonight, SmackDown! is fighting for its life!

Night two of the draft starts off with SmackDown!'s manbeast Rhyno taking on Mark Jindrak. Jindrak starts off with a bodyslam and a piledriver for two. Rhyno hits a pair of slams for two. Powerbomb for two. Spinning neckbreaker from Rhyno, but Jindrak hits a full nelson slam for two, then a spear for two. Jindrak presses the advantage with a clothesline and a slam, but attempts a backdrop and takes a neckbreaker for his trouble. Lariat from Rhyno to set up the GOOOOOORE for the win! After the match, Undertaker htis the ring with a chair, and nails Rhyno with it! What is going on here? UT stands over Rhyno as we go to commercial.

Result - Rhyno to RAW

Paul London has been red-hot lately, and there seems to be little doubt that he'll remain that way tonight against Boss Man. London hits a spinning kick and a DDT, followed by a legdrop and a tiger suplex to set up the London Calling for the squash win.

Result - Boss Man to SmackDown!

Up next is a tag team triple threat match where the winners will be able to decide the fate of all six participants. It's the World Tag Team Champion Dudley Boyz against the Basham Brothers and the team of Akio and Tajiri. D-Von brawls with Danny Basham, then hits a clothesline in the corner before tagging in Tajiri for a DDT for two. Danny tags in Doug and they hit a double backdrop. Tajiri tags in Akio, who hits a dropkick on Doug, then a super Frankensteiner. Doug tags in Bubba Dudley who takes a back suplex. Akio tries for an arm wrigner, but Bubba hits the Bubba Cutter for the win!

Result - Dudley Boyz (AND the World Tag Team Titles) to SmackDown!

Two wrestlers who have recently been on a roll are RAW's Nova and SmackDown!'s John Layfield. Tonight, one of them will wind up on the other's brand. Nova hits a rolling kick, then a flying reverse elbow for two. Layfield gets a boot up on an avalanche attempt, then hits a headbutt and punches for two. Clothesline (from not Hell, apparently) for two. Another clothesline for two (and right after I typed the Hell joke, EWR responds "John Layfield hits a big clothesline, not of the 'from Hell' variety." Is it sad that I have the same sense of humor as this game?) Nov hits a running senton for two. Diamond Dust for two. Rolling kick, spinning back kick, but he blows a legdrop, which allows Layfield to hit some strikes, a discus punch, and the Clothesline From Hell for the win!

Result - Nova to SmackDown!

Up next is a four-team elimination match with a similar stipulation to the earlier triple threat. The winners decide the losers' fate! The Dudleyz chose to just jump ship and leave Kyo Dai and the Bashams on SD, will the winners of this match have the same response? It's Blueprint Express, Vitamin C, and the teams of Rikishi and Scotty 2 Hotty and Test and William Regal. Rikishi is pinned by Jericho following a tiger suplex, leaving he and Scotty at the mercy of two of the remaining six men. Blueprint Express hit a Hart Attack on Test to eliminate he and Regal, and it's down to the former WWE Tag Team Champons against Vitamin C. Morgan hits a spinning neckbreaker on Christian, then a DDT. Christian kicks Morgan in the face to counter a backdrop, then hits a dropkick and a stump piledriver for two. Tag to Jericho, who hits a superkick, but Morgan manages to tag in Train, who nails a big clothesline for a long two, then hits a big right hand. Jericho hits a high dropkick, knocking Train into Christian, who hits the Unprettier, allowing Jericho to pick up the win. But after the match, Jericho says Vitamin C is staying on RAW, while Christian says they're going to SmackDown! What's going on?

Backstage, Stephanie McMahon and Eric Bischoff are having a heated discussion about the results of that last match. Stephanie is eager to have Vitamin C on SmackDown!, but Bischoff is insistent that since Jericho said he wanted to stay on RAW first, that they should honor that. After some harsh words, they decide that since Vitamin C want to go to separate brands... they're going to split all four teams!

Result - A-Train and Rikishi to RAW, Christian and Test to SmackDown!

Chris Nowinski has started to turn some heads on RAW with some very good matches recently. He's come out on the losing end, but he's looked good every time. Tonight, he faces SmackDown!'s Rey Mysterio, who hits a back heel kick, a dropkick, a flying elbow, and a flying neckbreaker before Nowinski can hit a neckbreaker of his own, then a piledriver for two. Rey hits a flying crossbody for two, then a spiringboard dropkick for two. They exchange punches until Rey hits a flying axehandle to set up the West Coast Pop for the win.

Result - Chris Nowinski to SmackDown!

Two of the most popular wrestlers in World Wrestling Entertainment are out next, as RAW's Val Venis takes on SmackDown!'s Chris Benoit. Val hits a headbutt, but Benoit responds with a stiff lariat, then a Tiger Driver '91 for two. Val comes two with a slam, then a bulldog for two. Val hits a lariat for a long two. Val tries for an arm wringer, but Benoit turns it into a T-bone suplex for two. Benoit goes for a splash, but Val gets his knees up. Benoit bounces back and is furious that Val is putting up such a fight. He begins to ground-and-pound Venis with brutal punches, and the referee decides to step in and break it up, but Benoit shoves him aside. The referee calls for the bell, and Val wins by DQ! After the match, Benoit continues his frenzy, nailing the referee with a DDT! Chris Benoit has finally snapped!

Result - Chris Benoit to RAW

Up next, it's the Intercontinental Champion Hurricane against Chavo Guerrero, who has begun to get some positive reactions from the crowd. Hurricane hits a slam, but Chavo responds with a spinning back kick and a springboard dropkick for two. Hurricane slides out of a slam and hits a back suplex and a superkick (thus spanning the entirety of Shawn Michaels' history of finishing maneuvers) for two. DEV gets a long two. Chavo responds with a big punch and a running senton for two. Hurricane winds up hitting the Eye of the Hurricane to end it, but afterwards he and Chavo shake hands. What sportsmanship!

Result - Hurricane (AND the Intercontinental Title) to SmackDown!

Up until Sunday night, Eddie Guerrero was the Cruiserweight Champion and Matt Hardy was the Intercontinental Champion. Both men are looking to rebound with a win tonight against each other, and this could start an exciting new series of matches! Hardy hits a kick, but Eddie hits a mule kick, then a kick to the leg and a back heel kick for two. Eddie misses an elbow (HA! Serves you right for messing up the kick chain!) Hardy hits a running knee lift (which is sort of like a kick), then a spinning bulldog for two. Facecrusher for two more. Eddie heads to the top and hits a flying crossbody for two, but Matt hits the Twist of Fate for the win.

Result - Matt Hardy Version 1.0 to SmackDown!

Our main event tonight, and the grand finale of Draft Week, pits arguably the two biggest stars in the industry today against each other - The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar! Rock hits a neckbreaker and a bulldog for two. Lesnar hits a stiff chop, then a slam for two. Lesnar hits a spinebustr for two, then a slam. Rock hits a full nelson slam for two, then a lariat for two more. Huge backdrop and a slam, but Lesnar gets his knees up on a splash, then hits a fallaway slam and a Death Valley Driver. Paul Heyman climbs onto the apron and begins mocking The Rock, saying how much more dominant Lesnar is, and Lesnar takes advantage by hitting the F5 for the win! Heyman comes into the ring to get in some cheap shots, but Rock fights back and chases both men off as SmackDown! goes off the air.

Result - The Rock to SmackDown!

The 2004 Draft has come to a close, and both RAW and SmackDown! are forever changed. New rivalries will emerge, new alliances will be forged, and World Wrestling Entertainment is preparing in just five weeks to experience Backlash!
