Date Added: February 20, 2006
From WWE.com:
On the heels of No Way Out, the Road to WrestleMania continues for the SmackDown
Superstars when Friday Night SmackDown rolls into Washington, D.C., this week.
At No Way Out, Kurt Angle defeated Undertaker to retain the World Heavyweight
Championship, while Randy Orton defeated Rey Mysterio to win Rey’s main event
opportunity at WrestleMania 22. During No Way Out, Angle told the Legend Killer
that he wasn’t worried about him, focusing only on his match with Undertaker;
now that both men are WrestleMania bound, will Orton come looking for the World
Heavyweight Champion?
Also at No Way Out, Chris Benoit finally got his revenge on Booker T, winning
the United States Championship by making Booker tap out to the Crippler
Crossface. Will the former champion come looking to regain his gold, or will a
new challenger emerge for the Rabid Wolverine in the nation’s capital?
Plus, Matt Hardy chose Tatanka as his No Way Out partner, and together they
defeated MNM in a non-title match. Will Hardy and Tatanka come looking for a
golden opportunity this week?
