All Three Dudley Boys (693 pounds) vs FBI & Funaki (635 pounds) - I guess we're not seeing Josh and Bill, because Josh goes out of his way to do the introductions. Bill: "I'm a people person!" Spike and Nunzio to start? Okay. Nunzio's got a knee wrapped up - and he's got a forearm in the back, courtesy of D-Von. Guess it'll be D-Von and Nunzio to start. Forearm. "Who's the man?" Forearm.

Funaki with a right, right, whip, reversed, D-Von grabs a leg, Funaki turns around and gives him a swinging dropkick, taking himself to the apron. Bubba tries to suplex Funaki in from there, Funaki lands behind and forearms him in the back. off the ropes, Funaki visibly ducks under the clothesline, and then falls down like it hit him anyway. Maybe it got Funaki's hair? That looked really bad. Bubba distracts so Spike can come in and throw Funaki out, and then Johnny argues while D-Von flapjacks Funaki on the barricade.

Tough Enough 4 highlights. Pushing the physical toll hard. I think the Miz would have a much better chance on the old system; they obviously want and expect a guy who's at least a solid midcarder and has sure potential to be a main event look guy, and no amount of promos is going to make up for him not being one of the more imposing guys included. Navy guy, arrogant guy, chick picker upper guy, Miz, broken shoulder guy (cut! not cut! what a way to string him out), and the eight who made it. (6:55)

Tonight: Hardcore Holly vs Kurt Angle
Up Next: Big Show in action "right here, on the big B, Billocity!"

Repeat, this time swatted way. Akio thrown into the corner. Right is ducked, Akio with a right hand, and now he's just made Show angry. Akio rammed into the corner. Open hand slap. big hiptoss out. Clothesline. Akio rolling out and asking for time out. Dude should just keep walking. Show picks him up off the floor by the hair, and tosses him in. Press Slam with ease. Calling for it! Goozle. CHOKE (walking) SLAM. One two three. (1:27) Oh so close. Your ref was Jim Korderas, by the way.

Up Next: Hardcore Holly vs Kurt Angle

Juice Box presents Carlito thinks Torrie is not cool of Tuesday

Kurt Angle (no hometown, no weight, w/o anyone?, "the only Gold Medallist in WWE history and a former WWE champion") vs Hardcore Holly (Mobile, Alabama, 234 pounds) - Bill would've punked Carlito out, if only he was there. Odd introduction out of Chimel. Bill points that since it became Billocity, they've been getting Torrie and the Dudleys and Big Show and Kurt Angle; if Billocity is responsible for Tough Enough stealing a half hour chunk out of SmackDown! each week from now on, he may be on to something. Josh is going to lose mega points if he doesn't bring up the history here; he's currently too busy going over the latest Cena/Carlito developments. Circle. Lockup, Angle going for a fireman's carry, blocked, Angle to a waistlock, Hardcore switches, Angle rolls him over to his back, grabbing an armbar, Hardcore with a headscissors reversal, and to a standoff. Circle. Lockup, Angle headlock takedown. Bill: "Let's not forget what happened to Hardcore Holly at the hands of Angle in the past here, in the WWE." Broken arms and all that. Angle with a headlock, shot off, shoulderblock. Angle off the ropes, over, hiptoss, armdrag, and another standoff. Circle. Lockup, Holly with a headlock. Shot off, Holly wit a shoulderblock. Off the ropes, over, Angle hiptoss blocked, Hardcore's not, Hardcore armdrag, armdrag, Angle's clothesline is ducked, Holly waistlock, Angle back elbows free, Angle steps away, then charges, and Holly backdrops him to the floor. Someone out, time for a break. (2:08)

Holly has Angle cornered, and lets loose with a chop. And another. Whip, reversed, Holly goes in chest first, and Angle gives him the German Suplex on the rebound. Holding onto to chain another, Holly blocks and switches, Angle moves forward and grabs Brian Hebner, Hebner is smushed into the ropes and Angle is able tog et in a low blow mule kick. Bill argues Angle should be DQed for touching the referee, but Josh believe Kurt could use an attempt to get the ropes as an excuse. Angle with a stomp and a stomp. Side sidebreaker, one two no. Suplex onto the top rope for a gutbuster, one two no. Kurt with a kneeling waistlock. Fans not sure how to react to this as a weardown hold, but eventually get the clap going. Up to their feet, Hardcore with a back elbow, back elbow to get free. Off the ropes, grabs by Angle, overhead belly to belly suplex one two no. Angle puts a knee in Holly's back and pulls his neck back in a chinlock. Bill: "It's a special breed that competes here in the WWE. You don't just walk off the beach and say you're a superstar! You have to prove it!" See, "the WWE". Angle cranking in the chinlock, now with no knee. Hardcore trying to rally from the crowd, but they're slow to react. They get into it after Holly makes hi more, right, right, right, Angle right, Holly right, Angle right, Holly right, Holly right, Angle headlock, shot off, shoulderblock and both go down. Replay shows it the "smack heads (heads clearly do not touch)" spot someone's grown really fond off the last couple months. Hebner counting them down and up to eight before either is close. Nine, and Kurt uses the ropes to get up. Kurt tries a clothesline ducked, Holly back elbow, clothesline, clothesline, whip, dropkick one two no. Holly with a corner whip, reversed, Kurt charges into a boot. Hardcore swings and misses on a dropkick, Angle with a waistlock, Hardcore reverses to a waistlock rollup, one two NO and Hebner realizes they both were well into the ropes after the fact. Angle charges Holly again, Holly catches him and loads him up for the Alabama Slam, but Angle grabs the ropes to prevent it. Holly turns around underneath, and sets up for the alternative - Alabama Crunch. Reverse DDT, one two NO. Holly going up? Holly going up! Top rope clothesline/press/something one two no. Hardcore right, whip, quick reverse into an overhead belly suplex. Holly grabbing his hip and slow up. Angle up a lot quicker and waiting for Holly to get up. Angle Slam, and it works! One two NO! Hardcore Holly just kicked out of the Angle Slam on Velocity (and it didn't get near the reaction you might think.) Angle still has to pull down the straps, and so he does. Anklelock. Hardcore Holly right in the middle of the ring and not moving. He's got a long way to go, reaching, reaching, spinning and kicking Angle away. Holly up one foot, Angle charges again, Holly catches him and loads him into the Alabama Slam again, but this time we're not near the ropes. Angle improvises with blows to the (weakened!) rib area, and Holly looses his grip. Angle slides down into a sunset flip and rolls into anklelock! Angle scissors the legs. The ropes are just a half an arms length away from Holly, but he can't make a move. Holly gives up. (6:58, 8:64 total) That was pretty fun.

That's it.
