Compiled from e-mail accounts, here are spoilers for the rest of this week's WWE TV:

Sunday Night Heat
(Taped Monday, Airs Sunday)

• Johnny Stamboli beat Al Snow
• Spike and Tommy Dreamer beat two jobbers
• Jacqueline beat Molly Holly (somehow, Raven and Hurricane were involved in this one)

Velocity
(Taped Tuesday, Airs Saturday)

• Jamie Noble (w/ Nidia and Nunzio) beat Funaki
• Chavo Guerrero beat Shannon Moore
• Rikishi squashed a jobber
• Bill DeMott squashed a jobber
• NOTE: Josh Matthews and Ernest Miller were the new announce team for Velocity

SmackDown!
(Taped Tuesday, Airs Thursday)

• Kurt Angle opened the show with a promo.  Greeted by cheers, he started as a babyface, and then he started on the topic of Brock Lesnar.  He said he appreciated Brock's help and would grant him his title shot (to cheers).  Then he backslid, and said, "Well, but not just now" (to boos).  [The armchair booker in me loves the sounds of this already!]
• Backstage: Big Show is wigging out at Paul Heyman, saying he wants to be #1 Contender, but somehow, Chris Benoit got the slot tonight.  Heyman tells him to relax because it's all under control.
• Eddie Guerrero beat Billy Kidman in a good match.  Chavo was at ringside, and helped a little along the way as Eddie scored the pinfall.
• Backstage: Matt Hardy went to Stephanie McMahon, and in the course of his bitching, we found out that (a) Matt got a black eye from Brock Lensar over the weekend, (b) Matt has a match tonight against Brock Lesnar, and (c) Matt is unfit to wrestle tonight so Shannon Moore will take his place against Brock.
• John Cena, with B-Too following Eddie's example of "Cheat to Win," beat Chuck Palumbo via pinfall.  But he couldn't avoid a post-match beating at the hands of Rikishi...
• A Torrie Wilson interview saw her tell her dad and Dawn that they deserve each other, so go ahead and get married, see if she cares.  Dawn and Al came out and promised to get married on SD! very soon.
• Brock Lesnar completely squashed Shannon Moore.  Matt Hardy, who was at ringside, got his comeuppance after the match in the form of an F-5 of his very own.
• Kurt Angle made a surprise announcement:  his new agent is Paul Heyman!  They were in cahoots against Lesnar all along.  Of course, this brings out Big Show, who is understandably pissed, but Heyman manages to smooth things over, saying that a three-way partnership will be good for everybody involved.  [You know, I don't know if a Heyman/Angle partnership is exactly necessary to tell this story, but I'm not complaining...]
• Bill DeMott was the winner and only man left standing at the end of a tag match with him and Crash Holly taking on Jamie Noble and Nunzio.  DeMott never tagged in Crash, and won the match with moonsaults on both cousins.  Then for good measure, he demolished Crash, too.
• In a PPV rematch, Edge cleanly pinned A-Train.  [Man, is this show doing everything right, or what?]
• Chris Benoit took a DQ win over Kurt Angle in the main event.  Very good match (like you'd expect anything else?) with tons of crowd heat (owing much to Heyman's efforts) for about 15 minutes.  The finish came when Benoit was in control, so Big Show came out and interfered to cause the DQ.  Brock Lesnar ran out to make the save for Benoit, and wound up getting the best of Kurt Angle:  he tossed Angle into the ringpost a few times in a wicked spot, before the show closed.

Man, for a show that made some questionable personnel choices in the last month, SD! seems to have cured a lot of ills in one short week...  the main event situation alone has become approximately a billion times more intriguing, for instance.

Check out the show in its as-aired version on Thursday to see if all of this translates well to the screen, or check back with OO for full results and analysis afterwards!
