Smackdown Spoilers

[Andrew]

Mark Henry comes out to open the show. He reminds the crowd about everyone he has taken out and says Randy Orton is next at WWE Night of Champions. Zack Ryder comes out and says Henry will face Orton tonight. Henry lays out Ryder and ends up having to face Ezekiel Jackson up next.

Mark Henry defeated Ezekiel Jackson. Jackson showed promise at first, dominating Henry but it didn't take long for Henry to counter and give him the World's Strongest Slam and follow it with the pinfall victory.

Sin Cara defeated Tyson Kidd.

Josh Matthews interviews Cara and says that he's not sure that Cara speaks English but we are seeing a more aggressive side of him in recent weeks. Cara says that this is the real him and he was holding back out of respect for the WWE talent but now he's not holding back anymore. Daniel Bryan comes out and challenges Cara to a rematch next week, only to be attacked by Cara.

World champ Randy Orton vs. Intercontinental champ Cody Rhodes is tonight's main event. Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett is also set.

Matt Striker interviews Randy Orton backstage, discussing the Rhodes bout.

WWE Divas Champion Kelly Kelly vs. Natalya w/Beth Phoenix. Kelly Kelly is beat up the majority of the match but Kelly Kelly rolled Natalya up out of a Sharpshooter attempt to get the pinfall victory.

Christian comes out and complains about Teddy Long not being fair by making the tag match on Monday's Raw Supershow and he wants another shot at Randy Orton and the World Heavyweight Championship. Sheamus interrupts, telling Christian to quit crying and to get out of the ring because he has a match. Christian exits and Wade Barrett comes out to face Sheamus.

Sheamus defeated Wade Barrett via disqualification when Christian came back out and helped Barrett beat down Sheamus. Prior to Christian returning to ringside, the match was back and forth. Sheamus ended up fighting off both Barrett and Christian and clearing the ring.

WWE Tag Team Champions Evan Bourne & Kofi Kingston defeated Jinder Mahal & The Great Khali in a similar bout to what they had last night. After the match, Mahal complains about Khali losing. Triple H comes out and gives him the pedigree twice and leaves.

- Cody Rhodes came out talking about his face and himself and Ted DiBiase.

- Randy Orton defeated Cody Rhodes.​

My Thoughts;

Ryder is still Long's assistant yet doesn't produce much other than TV Time. Henry still showing domination by taking him out then facing Ezekiel and beating him, this puts over Henry more stronger.

Sin Cara vs. Kidd for the 4th time, can't they have him against anybody else? But behold...

Sin Cara backstage and he cuts a fucking promo, OMFG. I'm digging this Bryan/Hunico feud... They could use Hunico for promos and such to be honest, this is an interesting segment.

Kelly wins... Nothing new. Let's go to the next thing.

Christian still bitching, now this is annoying... he helps Barrett beat down Sheamus only for Sheamus to clean house. Looks like Christian/Sheamus feud is set, Christian is going to be buried harder than before here.

Tag Match repeat, I somewhat see Jinder & Khali splitting, if they're going to argue and such... this isn't looking good tag teams...

Orton over Cody, of course... Nothing new...

Looks like another passable edition actually, only want to see Sin Cara talk.

[The New F'n Show]

Sin Cara promo and attack of Bryan. Sheamus vs Barrett in ring action and Christian-Sheamus feud build work as does Henry dominating Jackson. The rest sounds average at best.

 

[Troy]

Good to see that Jackson is still being used and he gets to face the top contender. Henry winning isn't a surprise but hopefully Jackson gets one or two big moves in.

Really looking forward to seeing Hunico cut a promo and continue this heel turn before Mistico returns to save the day.

Interesting that Barrett faced Sheamus. Wouldn't mind that feud in the future. Sheamus is being pushed very strongly since he cleared the ring of both Christian and Barrett.

Why are WWE splitting Jinder Mahal and Khali after two matches as a team! I just don't get it. Plus why did HHH pedigree Jinder?

Why do WWE keep putting the World champion against the IC champion? Of course Orton will win and there is a big chance that Rhodes will come out of that match looking bad.

1. Henry VS. Jackson sounds awful. I say either feature MH in squashs only until NOC or just have him do promo work or attack people in segments like before, I think they have done enough with him in ring to get him ready for Orton, and I like the idea of him bragging about the roster of guys he has taken out, there is no need to see him wrestle from now until his title shot.

2. The poor treatment of Christian goes on I see.

3. WWE have once again given away another great future main event, given a few more months build Rhodes VS. Orton champion VS. Champion really could have been something on Pay Pay View!

Good point about HHH Troy, that just seems needless and makes no sense, I mean he didn't pedigree Christian when he was complaining, surely on that logic he would pedigreeing half the heel roster LOL.

 

[Prodigy]

For fuck sake, the sooner Orton loses the better. Seriously the match could be good, but expect the typical burial ending from Orton..... I really hope this plants the seeds for an Orton vs Rhodes feud and Rhodes legit beats the crap outta Orton

Not that I was suprised, but I was really hopeing that Christian would replace Orton as champion for awhile, I certainly don't think Mark Henry is the answer, and he will only have a short reign anyway I would think. Smackdown are in big trouble!

People will disagree but they need to push Rhodes and they need to do it pronto!

 

[Keith]

I don't think Rhodes is ready for the World Title yet, but I don't see why they should not build on his progress this year and book a main event feud with Orton with Cody still the IC Champion, that way it would lift the profile of that title, they could do it around Survivorseries time.

In my eyes all that's needed to get him ready is to have Orton help put over his heel character even more. There's the obvious history between them both so why not play off that and really start having mind games between the two.

This guy is such a loser. It's funny and pretty entertaining, but this guy comes off so annoying. He makes some very good points about Orton and yes Orton is kind of a douche. But to call Orton sloppy and dangerous is stupid.
