~ Smackdown comes on the air and goes right the intro with Michael Cole and Tazz welcoming us to the show. Tonight Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho defend the Tag Team Titles against Steve Austin and Vince McMahon. Basically the match we should have gotten the previous Smackdown instead of hotshotting Benoit’s rematch against Austin.
