WWE SmackDown Friday Night 31st October 2008 Results: Undertaker VS Chavo Guerrero
SAN DIEGO – Just five days after Cyber Sunday, MyNetwork TV hosted a special Halloween-themed edition of SmackDown full of Superstar tricks, costumed Diva treats, and a wicked Casket Match set by devilish General Manager Vickie Guerrero.
Undertaker def. Chavo Guerrero (Casket Match)








Even with Big Show becoming more than a casual observer, the fate of Chavo Guerrero in a Casket Match against Undertaker seemed set in stone. After punishing the self-proclaimed “Mexican Warrior,” The Phenom signaled to the referee that the end was near. But, as he was about to send Guerrero to his doom, Big Show slammed the casket door closed. Then, when The Deadman countered his opponent’s attempt to use a chair with a vicious chokeslam, Big Show attacked. However, the trick was on The World’s Largest Athlete as The Phenom pulled the top rope down, sending the charging Superstar tumbling over the ropes and onto the top of the looming box of death. Undertaker then hit Guerrero with the Tombstone and rolled him into the coffin for the win.
Vladimir Kozlov calls out Triple H





General Manager Guerrero gives Kozlov an opportunity. Vladimir Kozlov came before the WWE Universe, demanding a title opportunity against WWE Champion Triple H. When The Game emerged and pushed for a face-to-face confrontation without securing a title match, the Moscow Mauler backed off. Later, after watching her nephew lose to Undertaker, Vickie Guerrero informed Kozlov that if he beats The Deadman next week, she will award him a chance at the WWE Championship at Survivor Series.

Best Surprise Ending For Vince McMahon As CableFAX Hall of Fame 2008
In the October 2008 edition of CableFAX: The Magazine, WWE Chairman Vince McMahon was honored as one of the 2008 CableFAX Hall of Fame inductees, while WWE was one of the proud recipients in the magazine’s Program Awards issue, earning the “Best Surprise Ending” award.
McMahon’s 2008 Hall of Fame induction is discussed extensively in the CableFAX article. The piece states that while the small screen has become a hotbed of reality television, McMahon has developed WWE into a mainstay television product as well as a global commodity, because of the Chairman’s willingness to live on the edge to give the WWE Universe the product they desire.
The “Best Surprise Ending” award stems from the June 11, 2007 edition of Raw. As Mr. McMahon solemnly exited the arena to a chorus of boos, he walked past several WWE Superstars and into the parking lot where his white limousine was waiting for him. When he stepped into the limo and shut the door, the entire WWE Universe was shocked to witness the Chairman’s limo burst into flames as it exploded right before their eyes. The very next day, the page views on WWE.com rose astronomically as fans tried to figure out the fate of Mr. McMahon.
