SmackDown 5/30 Part Four: Will You Be My Friend

Friday Night SmackDown, May 30, 2008
Match Four
Batista and Big Show def. Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins
Batista’s music and intro happens and I guess the Main Event happening at the half way point. Who will be Batista’s tag team friend? Batista grabs the mic and proudly declares “I don’t need a partner.” We don’t think Hawkins and Ryder are particularly fearsome either. They look pretty cocky and Mick Foley thinks it’s foolish confidence. He is soooo right.
The still wheelchair-bound Vickie Guerrero feels the need to taunt the Animal about his apparent friendlessness. But Batista has some clever semantics in store “I didn’t say I didn’t have a partner I said I didn’t need a partner. Cue Big Show’s music. The World’s Largest Athlete appears, wheelies Vickie off the stage, and returns to the ring to participate.
A one-sided affair just got a lot more one-sided. Will Ryder and Hawkins connect on any offensive moves? It’s doubtful. Big Show slaps Hawkins silly, pulls Ryder off the floor and into the ring one handed and slaps him silly. It’s now Batista’s turn to unleash some damage. Clothesline, body slam, spine buster, and now the inevitable Batista Bomb. Hawkins tries to intervene but Big Show catches him in midair and we have Bomb-choke slam landed in perfect synchronized tandem.
Segment Grade: B- This bout was an unadulterated and lopsided beating which was just ridiculous enough to be interesting. Batista and Big Show would make for an unstoppable tag team.
