WWE Smackdown Spoilers (28/6/13)

[Andrew]

* Sheamus defeated Damien Sandow in a Dublin Street Fight. This was a pretty fun brawl that saw a beer keg, cane and even a bag of potatoes used. Pretty long match that saw Sheamus get the win after sitting Sandow on two chairs and planting him with a Brogue kick.

MizTV was next, Miz's guest was Paul Heyman. Curtis Axel comes out and Miz challenges him to a match. Heyman refused, and Axel attacked Miz and left him laying to end the segment.

* Natalya defeated AJ Lee via pinfall in a quick match. Kaitlyn came out dressed like AJ to distract her, allowing Natalya to pick up the win. Kaitlyn speared AJ after the match.

* Teddy Long was backstage with Vince McMahon and announced the Money In The Bank contestants for the World Heavyweight Championship title shot. The contestants are: Fandango, Wade Barrett, Dean Ambrose, Jack Swagger, Damien Sandow, Cody Rhodes and Antonio Cesaro.

* Randy Orton pinned Kane. Daniel Bryan was on commentary. The end saw Kane get sent to the outside. Bryan helped Kane back into the ring, only for Orton to nail Kane with the RKO for the win.

* Ryback squashed Justin Gabriel. After the match, Chris Jericho came out and cut a promo calling Ryback "Cryback." They fought for a minute before Ryback took off to the back.

* The Usos and Christian defeated The Shield after Christian pinned Dean Ambrose. Said to be a very good match.

* Fiesta Del Rio closed the show. There were tons of balloons and a mariachi band. Dolph Ziggler interrupted and attacked Del Rio and hit him with the props around the ring. Ziggler went to hit Del Rio with a Spanish guitar, but Del Rio bailed.

While Ziggler was celebrating, Del Rio got back in the ring but accidentally kicked Ricardo in the head. Ziggler sent him packing and broke the Spanish guitar on Ricardo's upper body. Ziggler then played the broken guitar with the mariachi band to end the segment.

Full detailed.

Liking the MITB for SD.

So the Shield goes undefeated in 6-man tags against the likes of Cena, Taker, Kane, Orton, etc, lose once to D-Bry and now the Usos & Christian beat them their first time out?

DAT CHRISTIAN PUSH

As much as I really dont care about the IWC crush that is The Shield. That is simply Blue booking. They beat all these Main Eventers, former world Champs and now Christian + Uso's can beat them...

That sdaid Christian getting a good push is certainly not a bad thing.

 

[CGS]

Predicted 5 guys right. Not bad. Surprised they didn't include Big E though. Would have preferred him over Swagger.

As for the Shield losing I guess it is pretty random booking but at the same time their hype has really died down since Extreme Rules. Don't think WWE are going cold on them but after such a huge impact they could only go down. Was way to early to be pushing them any further than they did.

The booking is something you would expect from TNA. I don't mind Christian getting a push, but where exactly did he fit into this match? he is not even in the WHC MitB.

 

[Gimmick]

Having Christian and The Uso's beat The Shield doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I get that they probably want to give Christian and The Uso's some momentum, but when you consider how many main eventers The Shield have beaten in the past it just doesn't look like the smartest decision.

Smackdown MITB looks good though. Funny how they're basically putting Swagger in the category of people who've never won the World title.

Also, that Dublin Street Fight sounds awful. We don't use a cane when fighting.

I Hope Ambrose Wins SD MITB Cause He Is The Only 1 i Care About In The Match.

#1 Sign that Vince is planning on disbanding a team sometime in the near future, when he jobs them out to someone like The Usos. Granted though that The Shield may disband, but they (hopefully) may keep Rollins and Reigns together still, since they're really great together.

 

[The Cork]

lol jobber MITB.

Hope Fandango wins.

 

[Troy]

Swagger is the odd man out in MITB, should have left him out and then they could have played up the fact that none of the entrants have been world champion before. Should have given his spot to Big E or even Sin Cara just to be the spot monkey for the match.

Uso's and Christian beating The Shield is an odd decision. I ge that they want the number one contenders to look strong and Christian to look good after returning but still it doesn't make much sense. Hopefully there were some shenanigans leading to the finish to not make Shield look too weak.

 

[Deezy]

shield are over now, they are beyond wins and losses at this point. WWE using heel tactics 101, they put over the challengers before they win by the skin of their teeth at the PPV, ensuring they get as much heat on them as possible. Four Horsemen/Freebird psychology 101 here. Whats the big deal? nWo didn't use this and looked what it did to WCW faces.

Rest of the show looks pretty damn good, wonder what Swagger and Cessaro in the same match means? Both team up to take that briefcase for Swagger or does someone turn? Zeb going to make a choice between either? PRetty intriguing if you ask me.
