Major League Wrestling (MLW) SmackdownFriday August 8, 2008 Las Vegas, NV (Second-Third of the show, First-Third is posted above)In the Ring: Savage-T with the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase and Virgil. - Savage-T: "Million Dollar Man, who am I wrestling tonight. Do I have to wrestle one of The Vegas Haters again?" -Million Dollar Man: "No Savage-T, I promise you don't have to wrestle one of The Vegas Haters tonight. Instead you're going to wrestle both of The Vegas Haters tonight in a 1 on 2 handicap match." - As the Million Dollar Man laughs, The Vegas Haters come out for their handicap match against Savage-T. Match #5: The Vegas Haters (Don Leo Jonathan and King Kong Bundy, managed by Eddie Fyne) defeated Savage-T in a 2 on 1 handicap match.- The Vegas Haters controlled the entire match and won when Bundy gave Savage-T an AVALANCHE. -As a result, Savage-T still has to be the servant of the Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase who (also as a result) gets to stay on Smackdown In the Ring: Sandman -Sandman: "I heard Rapping Red Bastien has something he wants to say to me tonight even though he is still in the hospital unable to speak or rap due to the injuries I gave him in the Barroom Brawl match at the Great American Bash last month." - Sandman: "So I'm calling out whoever Rapping Red Bastien's messenger is to come out here right now to the ring and deliver Rapping Red Bastien's message." - The entrance music for Boogie Woogie Man plays and Boogie Woogie Man comes out holding a piece of paper. - "Sandman, Rapping Red Bastien wrote this song he wants me to give you and he told me to sing it in the same tone of voice as the song Handlebars by The Flobots." Rapping Red Bastien's Rap Song (performed by Boogie Woogie Man):"Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars. Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars. Sandman says look at me, look at me, he can give you a HARDCORE DDT. But you won't see Sandman often winning. Because he likes to spend way too much time double-fisting. Sandman says look at me, look at me, he don't care about looking clean and he always smells like nicotine. Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars. Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars. Sandman says look at me, look at me, pretending he's on top. But that's only until I give him my ATOMIC DROP. Sandman if you get no DUI, no DUI, no DUI Then I challenge you to a match between you and I, between you and I, between you and I Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars. Sandman, you're a big [censored] at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars, at the Vegas bars."-Sandman: "So Rapping Red Bastien wants to challenge me to a match when he gets back to Smackdown some time after Summer Slam. Well since you Boogie Woogie Man delivered a message to me from him, I only think it's fair if you now deliver Rapping Red Bastien a message to him from me." -Boogie Woogie Man: ''OK man. What's your message?' -Sandman: "This!" -Sandman then repeatedly hits Boogie Woogie Man with his SINGAPORE CANE as Smackdown goes to commercial break. (note: Although I obviously changed some of the words around so it would make sense for my fed, the basis for Rapping Red Bastien's song was a song called "Vegas Bars" by the Blobots which is a spoof of the hit song "Handlebars" by The Flobots). blobots.com/End of Second Third. Final Third will be posted next and includes Antonino Rocca vs his enemy Ivan Koloff, Road Warrior Hawk vs Antonio Inoki, and the big anticipated main event of MLW Chairman Bruno Sammartino and United States Champion Frank Gotch vs their respective Summer Slam opponents Larry Zbyszko and MLW Champion Buddy Rogers.

Major League Wrestling (MLW) Smackdown Friday August 8, 2008 Las Vegas, NV (Final Third of the show, First Third and Second Third are both posted above)
Match #6: Ivan Koloff (accompanied by Nikolai Volkoff, Terrible Turk, and manager Nikita Breznikov) defeated Antonino Rocca by countout.
- this was a tune-up regular match for these two enemies (Rocca and Koloff) who are set to battle in a falls count anywhere match next week at Summer Slam.
- a good match which ended when Koloff threw Rocca out of the ring and then distracted the referee as Volkoff, Terrible Turk, and Breznikov triple teamed Rocca outside of the ring. As a result, Rocca was unable to reenter the ring before the referee finished his 10 count and the match was awarded to Koloff. But the announcers emphasize that at the falls count anywhere match next week between Rocca and Koloff at Summer Slam a countout finish like this won't be possible and there will indeed be a guaranteed winner.
Match #7: Road Warrior Hawk (accompanied by Road Warrior Animal) defeated Antonio Inoki (accompanied by Giant Baba).
- this match featured 1/2 of the two tag teams (World Tag Team Champions Road Warriors and United States Tag Team Champions Giant Baba and Antonio Inoki) who are set to battle in a best 2 out of 3 falls match for the World Tag Team Championship next weekend at Summer Slam!
- Road Warrior Hawk won this match when he pinned Inoki after 2 consecutive FLYING CLOTHESLINES

- For this match, Johnny Valentine and George Hackenschmidt accompanied their Horsemen teammates Rogers and Zbyszko to ringside
- This was the first match for MLW Chairman Bruno Sammartino since he wrestled Gotch at Wrestlemania (note: for this match I'm using the Bruno Sammartino bootleg from Cory Olson's LOW Bootlegs group)
- this was a great main event match that saw all 4 competitors have to escape from at least 1 pin/submission attempt. The end came when Gotch forced Rogers to tap out to a rolling kneebar. The announcers point out that if Gotch can repeat this result next week at Summer Slam in his Last Man Standing match against Rogers at Summer Slam, then he'll become the new MLW Champion!

It's now time for this week's Saturday morning editions of Heat and Velocity- the B shows for Major League Wrestling's (MLW's) RAW and Smackdown brands respectively!
(note: The way my B shows work is that they're a way to use the wrestlers who didn't make TV this week on RAW or Smackdown and also a way through the RAW Replay and the Smackdown Slam of the week to review some things that happened that week on RAW and Smackdown. I will also sometimes bring up wrestlers from my developmental brand Minor League Wrestling to work a match on these shows which, although they're not on every week, take place on Saturday mornings 1 hour each over a straight two hour period.)

Raw Replay: The footage from this week's edition of RAW (results posted above) shows how just before the 6 man tag team match between Mil Mascaras and the New Age Outlaws vs The Sheik and the Vachons was set to begin Mascaras grabbed the microphone to announce the surprise appearance of his best friend and frequent tag team partner Bobo Brazil! The Las Vegas crowd rose to their feet to give a standing ovation to Brazil who was making his first appearance since Vengeance when he got hit by a FIREBALL from The Sheik who interfered in Brazil and Mascaras' tag team steel cage match against the Vachons. As a result, Brazil has been out injured since Vengeance but is scheduled to return next week at Summer Slam in a match against The Sheik.
-The footage continues to show how the 6 man tag team match ended when The Sheik got distracted by shouting toward Brazil at ringside only to be hit by a FLYING BODYPRESS from Mascaras to lose the match.

The footage shows highlights of the match and how it ended with Gotch making Rogers tap out to a rolling kneebar. If Gotch can get the same results next week at Summer Slam in his last man standing match against Rogers then he'll become the new MLW Champion!
