this was a short cursed era of smackdown before the “Smackdown Six” really started cooking at the end of the year.
we really missed out on a fun redemption arc of Steph and Stacey becoming friends by trying to prove themselves in the office side of WWE. Especially since Steph was supposed to be a face at this time anyways.
At some point, y'all have to do the episode where Crow Sting speaks for the first time
Why did they just randomly put hardcore holly into tag teams no one asked for most of his career 😂 like who asked for “HARDCORE VALBOWSKI” 😭😭
Dvon eaten da bussy
Working on getting the latest Watch This up! Having some issues with every website ever not wanting us to show you it.
The RAW before this Smackdown kinda lit not gonna lie
Back dat ass up
Dude, that shot of Rikishi on the stage was INSANE
I had a migraine by the end of that intro
That intro is just what the early 2000s were like all the time
I feel it in my chest, how loud James must've yelled after seeing Val Venis show up on his screen.
The Reverend D-Von gimmick was DOA from the start in my eyes. Just hacky and stupid. Of course, it's redeemed only because of a certain season mode in a certain video game run by a certain online group that may or may not have Jawnny with them.
Val Venis and Hardcore Holly pickin’ on rookie Batista? The Trish Stratus Summerslam commercial? As soon as I saw Rikishi come out with the “back dat ass up” shirt and that post match camera shot…I knew. This is gonna be an all timer episode.
the BIG VALBOWSKI???? GET OUT OF OUR COMPANY
Smack smack smack smack smackdown
“That’s the SIX NINETEEN COLE!” HUH?!?!
WHO?
WHOS THAT JUMPING OUT THE SKY... its ÓSCAR
People give Val Venis a lot of grief but when you take the time to sit and watch one of his matches you realize that god damn this guy sucks.
This opening Stephanie package sucks brother. “Rey…RE…Rey..REY Mysterio”
So in this show right the John Cena promo is this his suffering succotash moment? Because that was really hard to listen to.
fine speech, john felix anthony cena
Apologies for the mess up in the description! The thumbnail, date and links were all correct, we are watching SmackDown!
Please WATCH THIS! WCW Mayhem 3 Count (Shane Helms and Shannon Moore) vs Evan Karagias and Jamie Noble, vs The Jung Dragons (Kaz Hayashi and Yun Yang).
VAL VENIS GET OUT OF OUR FUCKING COMPANY!
What if it's something entirely different since this will come out on April 1st?
True, for all we know they’re doing a Jesse Ventura special
jawwny after reading the comments; "I CAN'T TAKE THIS SHIT NO MORE MAN".
CUT THE FUCKINGS CAMERAS!!!
THIS WAS MY BIRTHDAY DUDES. 8 YEAR OLD BLAKE WAS SO STOKED TO SEE REY FINALLY ON WWE. I hope this episode is as good as I remember. Lmao
Nice job doxing urself "Blake" I'm coming to ur house to eat your ass
Ah yes, my favorite show, WWE SmackRaw, kinda live every Wednursday on FU Network.
I got confused and watched Maki Itoh vs.Mizuki. Don't think it was RAW cause I didn't contemplate drinking bleach once.
I'm tryna see maki itoh vs THE MIZ
JAWWNY WERE GETTING YOUR ASS ON THIS ONE BRO
YOU MESSED UP! ITS THE PENIS EXPLODING MACHINE FOR YOU BROTHER…OR MAYBE NOT DUDE I DONT KNOW!
it's easy to mix up which show it is, because smackdown's loss is raw's gain
If you really think thats the right episode- let me try that ONE MORE TIME
Well maybe it's not SmackDown brother or maybe it's Raw
Do you mean Raw July 22nd? Or 29th?
Instructions unclear, ended up watching season 1 of Hogan Knows Best
That’s the day before my 13th birthday. I shall enjoy it as the president of the DPW book club.
I think is Smackdown lads ^-^'
YOU FUCKED UP, YOU FUCKED UP
i’m all grown up….nooooww
Is it meant to be Smackdown? There's no July 25 2002 episode of Raw
JUMPING OUT THE SKYYYYYY WEST COAST POOOOPP
Looks like this is the Rey debut episode of SD? Should be a fun one!
It’s smackdown guys😂
everytime i see this smackdown thumbnail i think maybe its the one i suggested then its not that then i go die in hell
It's either the RAW in Grand Rapids which I was supposed to go to when I was 8.. LEGENDARY EPISODE. Or it's the smackdown after. I think it's the former
Been waiting for this one! Juiced up Rey debut
WRONG THUMBNAIL BROTHER
Or maybe it's not dude
Wait the graphic shows Smackdown but the post says RAW.
WHOS THAT
