WWE SmackDown
(Airing August 6)
* The show opens with Rey Mysterio. Rey says he did not take out The Undertaker. Drew McIntyre comes out and says he's going to take out Mysterio just like he did to Christian last week. Rey accepts Drew's challenge for the main event.

* Cody Rhodes defeated Matt Hardy.

* A backstage segment with Layla, Michelle McCool and Teddy Long. Teddy demands they give up one of the belts and Michelle does. LayCool argues and break the other belt.

* Dolph Ziggler defeated Kofi Kingston to become the new WWE Intercontinental Champion. Ziggler got help from Vickie Guerrero in the match. Kofi attacks Dolph after the match and beats him up bad.

* CM Punk, Serena, Joey Mercury and Luke Gallows come out. Punk shows footage of them beating up Big Show last week and brags about it. Punk cuts a promo on his fellow SES members.

* Punk, Gallows and Mercury defeat the team of MVP, JTG and Chris Masters. Good match here with Gallows getting the win for his team.

* Teddy Long and Jack Swagger had a backstage segment. Swagger blamed all his troubles with Kane on Teddy. I think this may have been a segment for arena viewers only since they referenced the dark main event.

* Rey Mysterio defeated Drew McIntyre in the main event with a rollup. This was the best match for SmackDown of the night.

* After the match Kane comes down and there's a casket. Rey escapes from Kane and says he didn't take out Undertaker and reveals that Kane was the attacker. SmackDown ends with Kane staring up to the sky for a long time, crying or laughing to himself.



Finally Dolph Ziggler wins the Intercontinental title, he should have won it a long time ago when he was feuding with Mysterio if I remember correctly. Good for him to get that win and it allows Kofi to potentially move up to the mainevent if they get him in the right storyline and feud.

Joey Mercury being unmasked is good since those who didn't know finally know who he is. Plus it means that he will wrestle regularly and it is easier calling him Joey Mercury than masked attacker. Great for him to be back on the main roster in WWE after that sickening injury a few years back.

Undertaker storyline doesn't seem to have progressed that much since I have been gone. The best news is Kane is champion which is the best decision WWE has made in years :p

Your thoughts on this show? I will add more once it airs.
