NOTE: Daniel Bryan did not cash in his briefcase. Some websites are reporting it but 100% he did not cash it in. Here is a transcript from another site from someone that was there.
"Alberto Del Rio promo. Says it's his 1 year anniversary. He said one year ago he beat Rey and one year later he beat him again. He says that in that year he' s become a fan favorite with all of us. (Huge Boos.) He challenges anyone to face him. Daniel Bryan comes out and says Del Rio isn't special because Del Rio cashed in like everybody else. Bryan says he'll cash in his briefcase honorably. Note: he meant at WrestleMania, not here."
I swore loudly at the computer when I read the wrong report that said Bryan cashed it in. I double checked on some other sites and he didn't cash it in. So don't panic he still has it.
Back on the show it sounds like a really good show.
I don't mind the opener. They didn't make it to SummerSlam so it is good that he gets his rematch right away.
Gabriel and Kidd had a great match on NXT last week so it is great that WWE really are watching and have given them time on Smackdown.
Del Rio vs. Bryan sounds really good. Once again it is a NON TITLE match.
Natalya taking out Fox I don't find since it gets Natalya more over as a heel.
Everyone knew that once Orton won the title Henry would be number one contender. Really like the idea of a battle royal to determine the number one contender and good seeing Sin Cara the last guy eliminated.
Your thoughts on the show?
