Match for SmackDown Next Week, New Tag Title Contenders, Birthdays

- Hulk Hogan turns 59 years old today while former ECW manager Bill Alfonso turns 55.

- Booker T announced on last night’s SmackDown that Eve Torres will face Kaitlyn on next week’s show. The winner will win the right to be Booker’s new Assistant to the General Manager.

- Titus O’Neil and Darren Young became the new #1 contenders to the WWE Tag Team Titles on last night’s SmackDown by defeating Primo and Epico. No word yet if they will get their title match at SummerSlam or if AW’s release will change anything. At last word, a three-way for the tag team titles with Young & O’Neil vs. Primo & Epico vs. Kofi Kingston & R-Truth was in the works for SummerSlam.

    The right to be Booker T’s assistant? So nobody wants to be Women’s Champion anymore? Nobody wants to be the number 1 contender? Don’t think I’ve even seen Layla since Cyndi Lauper vs. Heath Slater. In short, this is a joke but both are babes, so I’m kind of in…

    Let eve and kaitlyn wrestle to a draw so they can both be booker’s assistants and they can both get tv time. And dude is right, what happened to the women actually wrestling?. All they have been doing is backstage skits with the chicks, haven’t seen the divas champion in like 3 months and has aj actually had a wrestling match?. Wwe destroying divas wrestling division just like they did the tag division, gee vince is SO BRILLIANT,NOT!!!!
