WWE Smackdown 7th November 2008
Orlando, Florida
The opening video aired and fireworks lit up the stage. Jim Ross and Tazz welcomed us to the show. They plugged tonight’s main event of The Undertaker vs. Vladimir Kozlov and a United States Championship match between Shelton Benjamin and R-Truth.
MVP was in the ring hosting the latest edition of the VIP Lounge. He talked about his losing streak and how he needed to win a certain amount of matches to avoid having a “regular talent contract,” which was still more money than any of us make.
The Great Khali and Ranjin Singh came out to the ring. Singh told MVP they were going to have the Kiss Cam whether MVP liked it or not. MVP left the ring but stuck around. Singh brought two larger women into the ring. The first one looked like a man because of her profound mustache.
Khali pecked the mustache and almost puked. The second lady had fake teeth. He quickly gave her the thrill of her life too. Singh suggested they have a three way kiss. I guess when Singh has an idea, he should keep his mouth shut. Khali kissed both of them repeatedly.
MVP attacked Khali from behind before taking off up the ramp. Khali went from fun loving to serious as he stared down MVP.
Backstage, MVP approached Vickie Guerrero and complained about Khali messing up his show. Vickie called Khali a ratings draw while MVP keeps losing matches. MVP said he wanted a match and Vickie booked Khali vs. MVP for later in the show.

1. Shelton Benjamin defeated R-Truth to retain the United States Championship in 4:05. Truth came out utilizing his quickness but Shelton took the advantage after hitting a gut buster. Truth scored a nearfall after two closelines and a jumping thrust kick. Truth hit a somersault plancha onto Benjamin on the floor. He threw Benjamin back into the ring and hit a missile dropkick for a long two count. With Truth favoring his ribs, Shelton suplexed him across the top rope. He followed up with Paydirt for the win.
