September 26, 2008 | Posted by Brad Borchardt

Welcome everybody to the Smackdown report. I’m back after being gone for over four months and this is either my full return or my final goodbye depending on if I get Smackdown next week. Not sure if I’ll have My Network TV yet as I don’t have it now anywhere on any station.

We start the show off with Vicky and Chavo Guerrero talking about Undertaker’s attack on Chavo last week. Chavo seems devastated over it and tells Vicky that Undertaker wanted him to be a messenger to tell Vicky that tonight he’s coming for her. Vicky tells Chavo to go get Big Show so they will be protected. Jeff Hardy interrupts and demands a match with Vladimir Kozlov. Vicky says neither him nor Triple H will get a match with him as they need to focus on No Mercy. Big Show comes in and holds Vicky in his arm.

Well, if this is indeed my last show, thanks to everyone who has been reading over the past couple years. Hopefully I know by the beginning of the week if I’m going to be able to catch Smackdown. I will be at the show as its being taped Tuesday a couple hours down the road in Green Bay so I’m excited, especially since I have first row seats to the event. Everyone enjoy the weekend!
