By Daniel Pena

- In honor of the 15th Anniversary of SmackDown tonight, Xavier Woods, Big E and Kofi Kingston are re-enacting historic SmackDown moments on the WWE App Second Screen experience. In this re-enactment, Big E and Xavier re-enact Heidenreich's infamous ode to Michael Cole on the September 16, 2004 episode of SmackDown-?Big E portrays Heidenreich and Woods portrays Cole.

On the episode, Heidenreich attacked Cole and dragged him backstage. Cole was then pressed up to the wall as Heidenreich breathed heavily. Heidenreich later revealed that rape was implied in the scene and was the brainchild of Vince McMahon.

Speaking on the incident in a 2008 interview, Heidenreich commented that "Vince McMahon came up with it in a dream one night." He said that Stephanie was the one who approached him on the day of the show to inform him of what was going to go down. Heidenreich added Pulp Fiction came to mind when he heard it and stated, "I'm just happy I was doing the raping and not getting raped."

- Gene Snitsky was backstage visiting at Sunday's WWE live event in Allentown, Pennsylvania.
