Jimmy Reviews Velocity
Velocity openingPaul London vs. Nunzio
Wristlockery to start, and the announcers talk about Hassan a bit. London gets a springboard double stomp for 2. Nunzio gets a suplex for 2, and goes to the chinlock. London fights back, getting a leg screw. Northern Lights Suplex gets 2 for London. Fallaway Slam into a pin gets 2. London crotches Nunzio on the ropes while Josh talks about Stretch Armstrong. London gets a flying crossbody on the outside and rolls Nunzio back in for 2. Nunzio gets a rollup for 2. Scilian Slice is blocked, and London hits the Shooting Star Press for the pin. I'm probably overrating it, but I liked this match a lot. ***
We review Eddie telling the secret on Smackdown.
Funaki vs. Frankie Kazarian
Frankie gets a shoulderblock, but Funaki gets a pair of armdrags and works the arm. Kazarian goes to the head...twister...thing. He gets a neckbreaker for 2. He gets a swinging neckbreaker for 2. FK gets the corner dropkick. Funaki gets a crossbody for 2. Fisherman's Suplex gets the same for him. Kazarian gets a backdrop suplex, and hits a spinning reverse DDT for the win. Pretty good. **1/4
MNM without Melina vs. Steve Lee and Scotty Sabre
Mercury and Nitro dominate Sabre for a bit. Mercury misses a knee drop and Sabre tags in Lee. Lee has a little offense, but that doesn't last long. They work over Lee's knee, but he breaks free and tags in Sabre, who in a matter of seconds falls victim to the Snapshot for the win. They Snapshot Lee after the match. 1/2*
We review JBL vs. Undertaker from Smackdown.
Hardcore Holly (sucks) vs. Simon Dean
Dean insults Holly's body, and Hardcore slaps him. Josh mentions Peter Griffin, which further proves his awesomeness. Hardcore chops him for a bit. Simon cheaply rams Hardcore into the post and goes to work on the back. Backdrop suplex gets 2, and he goes to the chinlock. Hardcore fighs back with a full nelson suplex. He gets a powerslam for 2. Patented dropkick gets the same. Flying Clothesline gets 2 for Hardcore also. Dean reverses a whip, but gets caught in the Alabama Slam for the pin. Solid enough. **
TAKA Michinoku is the Heroic Trio, next on Spike TV.
Overall Thoughts: Good Velocity, as usual. Velocity is consistently owning RAW and Smackdown.
