Scramble Match Cancelled, MVP-The View, ECW Time Change, Nassau Coliseum

Quote :: - This week Raw, WWE announced that Friday's SmackDown would feature a Scramble match to determine the #1 contender to Edge's World Heavyweight championship at next month's Judgement Day. As it turns out, the match never occured at last night's tapings. Instead of the advertised scramble match between Chris Jericho, The Great Khali, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio and John Morrison, it was actually changed to a Fatal Fourway match, with the Great Khali and John Morrison being left out.

-- Sherri Shepherd, co-host of daytime talk show The View, was a guest at last night's WWE SmackDown tapings from Madison Square Garden and accompanied United States champion MVP to the ring. On The View this morning, Shepherd spoke about her time with MVP, who she called a great entertainer. Barbara Walters asked her about MVP "smacking her down" and she said not before she "smacks him down." Overall it was a pretty light segment and some decent publicity for WWE.

-- As a reminder, ECW on Sci-Fi will be permanently returning to it's original time of 10PM (eastern) next week.

-- WWE is having a presale for their August 4th Smackdown/ECW taping at Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, NY on tomorrow morning at 9am on Ticketmaster.com. The pre-sale password is "NVMC".
