Armageddon 2004

1. Rob Van Dam + Rey Mysterio defeated Kenzo Suzuki + Rene Dupree by pinfall

I really wanted to like this match but Suzuki and Dupree just suck all the fun out of everything. Plus neither RVD or Mysterio were extremely motivated, and honestly can you blame them?

Rating: 2.5

2. Kurt Angle defeated Santa Claus by submission

This was just to make up for the poor booking decision later on.

Rating: .25

3. Daniel Puder defeated Mike Mizanin by crowd reaction

This was for Tough Enough and not a wrestling match. The Miz should have won.

Rating: N/R

4. The Bashams defeated Charlie Haas + Hardcore Holly by pinfall

The Bashams are one of my least favorite teams of all time. That doesn't usually add up to a good match.

Rating: .75

5. John Cena defeated Jesus by pinfall

This was one-sided and boring. I don't blame the performers, just the booking.

Rating: .5

6. Dawn Marie defeated Miss Jackie by pinfall

Man, is this a horrible show or what?

Rating: 0

7. Big Show defeated Kurt Angle, Mark Jindrak, + Luther Reigns by pinfall

Yeah, it's really smart to have one guy defeat three guys. This was so stupid, even if two of the guys were Jindrak and Reigns, who were both awful.

Rating: 1

8. Funaki defeated Spike Dudley by pinfall to win the Cruiserweight Championship

This was kind of a neat moment, but in the long run, it pretty much meant nothing.

Rating: 1.75

9. JBL defeated Undertaker, Booker T, and Eddie Guerrero by pinfall

***Match Of The Night***

This had some flashes of brilliance, but hit a wall a few times as well. I loved JBL before and after the match and Eddie brought his usual greatness as well. Solid main event, but it couldn't save this horrible show.

Rating: 3

Well, this was really bad. Smackdown was just a bad show at this point and thankfully Cena pumped some life into the show in 2005. The undercard is one of the worst I can ever think of on a WWE show, well until probably the next pay-per-view they put on.

Overall Rating: 38%
