If you like ol' timey rasslin'
If you are a fan of old-skool wrestling that was about in-ring story telling and technical skill, be sure to watch Smackdown tonight at 8 PM on My Network TV (MyZ 3.2 around here). New world champ CM Punk takes on Jeff Hardy in a loser-leaves-town steel cage match for the belt. People in attendance have been raving all over the internet about this being one of the best matches in quite some time and the stipulation hearkens back to the old territory days of the NWA.
It should be a classic and, best of all, you don't have to plop down $50 (or however much a PPV costs these days) to see it.

Thanks for the heads-up. It was as old-school a match as I've seen in the Vince-era.
I thought it was pretty authentic. Lots of suspense, near wins, and ring psychology. My one beef would be that Hardy is leaving to work on his music career (a la Chris Jericho) rather than to take over his uncle's garage or because his wife got a new job as a nurse in Kansas City.
4 out of 5 Tully Blanchards.
