The new updated card now looks like this:
Updated WWE Rebellion Card, Nudity In The UK, more
-- Below is the current card for WWE Rebellion, which takes emanates from the Manchester Evening News Arena next Saturday, the 26th of October: (Please note that the card is subject to change, especially dependant on results from this Sunday’s WWE No Mercy spectacular)
» WWE Championship Match - Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Edge
» The Undertaker vs. Kurt Angle
» I disagree Match - Rikishi vs. Matt Hardy
» Billy & Chuck vs. The Guerrero’s
» Cruiserweight Championship Match - Jamie Noble (w/ Nidia) vs. Rey Mysterio
» The Big Valbowski (Val Venis) vs. Chris Benoit
» John Cena & Bill DeMott (Hugh Morrus) vs. D-Von & Ron Simmons
» Bra & Panties Match - Torrie Wilson vs. Dawn Marie
» Tajiri & Crash vs. Billy Kidman & Shannon Moore
» Albert vs. Funaki
-- A few points of note from that card, one would expect that the Albert vs. Funaki match will be a dark match to warm up the crowd before the curtains open.
Also, Billy Gunn is still scheduled on the card, even though he suffered an injury on Monday night at a House Show in London Ontario. Dependant on how severe the injury is, he may miss the trip to the UK, which would then almost certainly turn the match into a Eddie Guerreo vs. Chuck Palumbo match.
-- And finally, in recent past, some of the UK Pay Per Views have sported nudity from women in a gimmick match (with The Kat and Jackie springing to mind). However, do not purchase this pay per view on that regards, as the two female gimmick match participants are not known for their full inhibitions on WWE television, and any form of scheduled nudity will 99% probably not occur.

IT'S CHANGED AGAIN:
Re-Updated WWE Rebellion Card; New Main Event, Gunn Removed
Source: WWE
-- The WWE Rebellion Card has been updated through this weeks events, and radically changed. Below is the NEW card:
Crash Holly vs. Tajiri
Billy Kidman & Torrie Wilson vs. Albert & Dawn Marie
Chris Benoit vs. Eddie Guerrero
WWE Cruiserweight Title Match - Jamie Noble (w/ Nidia) vs. Rey Mysterio
Big Valbowski (Val Venis) & Chuck Palumbo vs. D-Von & Ron Simmons
I disagree Match - Rikishi vs. Matt Hardy
Edge vs. Kurt Angle
Handicap WWE Smackdown! Title Match
The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman
-- Some of the major changes to the card can be easily explained. The planned match with Bill DeMott (Hugh Morrus) in it was changed because Bill will be headed to RAW along with Ivory within the next few weeks.
The Billy/Chuck vs. Guerrero’s match was changed due to Billy Gunn’s unfortunate injury Last Monday at a Smackdown! house show. Gunn will be out of action for 3 weeks, at which point he will be evaluated for nerve problems. This therefore explains the pairing of Chuck Palumbo and The Big Valbowski.
And finally, there is now no female gimmick match on the card, with the Torrie vs. Dawn Marie Bra & Panties match being removed. This could be a ploy by WWE to ensure that people don’t purchase the event with a view to seeing nudity, and it not occurring, something which fans have voiced their displeasure over in the past.
-- Rumors will now run rampant that because the Lesnar/Edge match for the title has been changed, and the card now stacks the odds against The Undertaker in the main event, that Undertaker will win the title match tomorrow at No Mercy, in the Hell In a Cell.
However, as I stated the other day in the original card, the lineup for any event, particularly house shows and UK events, can be changed anytime from when it is announced, to the day of the event.
