WWF Champion: Stone Cold Steve Austin
WWF Tag Team Champions: X-Pac/Masked Kane
Original Match: The Blue Blazer vs. Val Venis
New Match: Al Snow vs Aguila
Aguila: 1-0
Al Snow: 0-1
Aguila was only competing in the Light Heavyweight division up until this point, but I would use him to see what he can do against someone like Al Snow to open the show. Maybe he impresses enough and he can go beyond that.
Original Match: The Big Show vs. Test
New Match: Bob Backlund vs. Big Boss Man
Bob Backlund: 1-0
Big Boss Man: 0-1
Boss Man was making no friends on the 1st Smackdown. So, I figure why not have somebody cost him this match and a legend like Bob Backlund gets a win on the 1st ever episode of Smackdown.
Original Match: Droz vs. D-Lo Brown (ended in DQ)
New Match: Bull Buchanan vs. Bradshaw (Bradshaw wins via DQ after interference by Chyna which was just to introduce her involvement with the newly formed Corporate Ministry)
Original Match: X-Pac(c) & [Masked] Kane(c) vs. The New Age Outlaws (WWF Tag Team Championship Match)
VERDICT: Keep it.
I'm going to leave this and officially welcome X-Pac & Kane as my tag team champions in this timeline. Think of it as the titles were vacant and now I crown the 2 of them as my inaugural champions.
Original Match: Ken Shamrock vs. Bradshaw
New Match: Carl Ouellet vs. Christopher Daniels [Street Fight]
Christopher Daniels: 1-0
Carl Ouellet: 0-1
Daniels wins a no holds barred match on the 1st Smackdown. That would be one to look back on.
Original Match: Mankind vs. Big Boss Man
New Match: Droz vs. D-Lo Brown
Droz: 1-0
D-Lo Brown: 0-1
I like the idea of having this match on the first Smackdown, but I disliked its placing and I disliked ending it on a DQ. Instead Droz beats Brown clean. Let's see what that does for him, something a hell of a lot more than a DQ match.
Original Main Event: The Rock/Stone Cold vs. The Undertaker/Triple H
New Main Event: Triple H & The Undertaker vs. The Rock & Test
The Undertaker: 1-0
The Rock: 0-1
They were planning to have the match be thrown out anyway, so they could have just thrown Test in there, but I'm going to have a finish to the match. Test and The Rock were both in essence screwed by the, now, Corporate Ministry, so having them team up in the Main Event felt like it wrote itself. Building the shown around Taker seems to make sense to me.
