WWE Smackdown vs Raw 2008 preview for PlayStation 3 When Good ol' JR uttered the phrase "Tables, ladders and chairs – oh my!", we can bet he had no idea that his vision of extreme would be completely outdated by 2007. When recording the commentary for this year's vision of SmackDown vs Raw, the world's most successful wrestling franchise of all time, perhaps we'll be hearing him yelling "Flaming barbed-wire baseball bats, dual burning tables – oh my!" instead, as these are by far the deadliest weapons you'll come across in this year's game. It's also a clear indication of the exciting direction that the series is taking.

In this match, as you may have guessed if you follow WWE (or ECW), there are basically no rules, and any weapons are permitted. Before beginning the match, you can even choose what weapons you have available to you, from two-by-fours, to dustbins, steel chairs, and even – as we mentioned previously – flaming barbed-wire baseball bats and stacked burning tables.
