WWE Smackdown Spoilers (12/14/12)

[Andrew]

* Big Show defeated R-Truth with the knockout punch. Sheamus and Antonio Cesaro were on commentary during the match. Show and Sheamus had a staredown after the match, but before anything could happen, Cesaro nailed Sheamus from behind and went to the back with Show.

* Backstage, Big Show complained that Sheamus violated the no-contact clause because Sheamus bumped Show after Cesaro nailed Sheamus from behind. Nothing really happened, the TLC match is intact.

* The Rhodes Scholars defeated The Usos.

* Big Show and David Otunga went to the ring and complained about Booker T failing to act after Sheamus violated the no-contact clause. They want Booker T removed as GM and the match cancelled, and are going to the Board of Directors to plead their case. Booker T came out, followed by Sheamus, who had a chair. Sheamus said that since the clause was broken, there's nothing to stop him from beating on Show. Show retreated and said the clause was still valid, so their match at TLC remains intact. Sheamus planted Otunga with the Brogue kick to end the segment.

* They cut away backstage to The Shield attacking Randy Orton. They eventually left, leaving Orton laying on a table.

* Kaitlyn defeated Aksana.

* It was announced backstage that Orton suffered a separated shoulder and a possible concussion from The Shield's attack.

* Miz TV is up next with his guest, Team Hell No. Daniel Bryan and Kane were cutting a promo when they were interrupted by a video from The Shield. When the video was over, the Shield was shown in a luxury box and started to head to the ring. Before they could make it all the way, Ryback hit the ring and The Shield retreated to the back.

* Tyson Kidd, Justin Gabriel, The Great Khali and Hornswoggle defeated Primo, Epico and The Prime Time Players.

* Intercontinental champion Kofi Kingston defeated Alberto Del Rio. Wade Barrett hit the ring after the match, but was met with Trouble In Paradise.

* U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro defeated Sheamus via countout. Big Show came out to ringside with an injured William Regal and Sheamus went after him. Show nailed Regal with the chair and then walked away smiling since Sheamus couldn't touch him.

Not a bad show, like the Shield bit, MizTV and Cesaro/Sheamus.

[Embrace Thou Maryse]

Better than last weeks at least.

 

[SAIYANS]

So Orton going k kill the shield solo at mania

 

[Dale]

Sounds a good show actually, i'll try and give this a watch.

Kofi actually beat Del Rio, am I reading this right!?

Going with a seperated shoulder for Orton, guess that'll put him on the shelf for a while.

 

[AZUCAR!]

According to PWInsider, Orton suffered some sort of wrist injury at the Tribute to the Troops taping.

SD looks decent for once. Might actually give it a watch this week.

 

[Deezy]

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm over Show beating on Regal for cheap heat.

 

[The Cork]

I like the midcarders beating the main eventers, switch it up a bit from the usual 'main event face beats midcard heel'.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

A Cesaro win helps him out so much. And Kofi beating Del Rio is also something that will help him. I may actually have to watch this show.
