June 28th WWE Smackdown Report

We are in Columbia, South Carolina and your announcers are John ‘Caka’ Layfield and Michael ‘Lackey’ Cole.

Before we start our first match, Damien Sandow has something to say. He says in 1860, South Carolina was the first state to secede from the Union. After one day, he suggests that they do so again. This is like a third world country. Y’all is not a word. It is pronounced ‘you all’ as in You all are a bunch of ignoramuses. He demands silence and then says after he defeats the ignoramus in the ring, this match will be recalled after the man who dominated, the Sandow Street Fight.
