SmackDown Results 8/26/2011

[Ed Burns]

Here's this week's Smackdown Results.
***********************************************************************************************************************************

Bret Hart entered the ring as the guest general manager of Smackdown. He spoke about the live Smackdown next Tuesday and said it was his decision. Sure, it was. He said Mark Henry vs. Randy Orton will take place on that show. Out came Christian, who said it was not his fault for losing at SummerSlam. He blamed Edge and said he couldn't concentrate during the SS match. Christian wants his rematch Tuesday on live SD.

Bret told Christian to stop being a crybaby. He said he's an embarrassment to the WWE Universe and to Canada. Yikes! He said he has to work his way back up. Christian called Bret an embarrassment and said he's the only relevant Canadian. Christian presented a court order to Bret that says he gets his rematch before anyone else gets a title shot. Bret gave it to him for next Tuesday and added that it will be in a steel cage match.

Mark Henry came out and said he's been here for 15 years. He said this is disrespect and that he earned his shot. He said someone's gonna get hurt. He wants the winner of the cage match. He was trying to bully Bret. Out comes Sheamus, who tells a story about how his uncle castrated a black bull. He is gonna do the same. He clears Henry from the ring.

They did a retake of Sheamus and Henry.

1. Christian defeated Daniel Bryan. Christian won with the Killswitch. An excellent match, just as you would expect from these two.

Wade Barrett came out for a match against a local wrestler. He said he is responsible for attacks on John Cena and others. He said he has shaken WWE to its very core (get it, Corre?). He says there is no way he will face this guy. He said it was an embarrassment and then left. That was the end of the segment. Seriously.

2. Sin Cara beat Heath Slater. There were a couple of botched moves and a quick roll up for the win. They had to reshoot the finish because it was so bad the first time. The kids love Sin Cara, though.

3. Randy Orton defeated Ted DiBiase (w/Cody Rhodes). Cody said he performs miracles and is resurrecting the Intercontinental Title. The paper bags were handed out. It was a nice match with lots of great spots. They had obvious chemistry with one another. Orton got the win with the RKO. Cody was pissed and hit CrossRhodes on DiBiase after the match. He put a bag on his head and their relationship appears to be finished.

4. Kelly Kelly beat Tamina. Kelly Kelly won with her new finisher.

Jinder Mahal was schooling The Great Khali and telling him he needs to take care of Ezekiel Jackson, which is coming up next.

Randy Orton vs. Christian in a cage match was officially advertised for the live Smackdown show.

5. Ezekiel Jackson defeated The Great Khali. Jackson broke out of the Vice Grip and put Khali in the Torture Rack. Impressive.

Randy Orton cut a promo on the big screen. He basically asked how many times he has to fight Christian.

6. Sin Cara defeated Heath Slater. They redid the match completely. No kidding. And, shockingly, it was way better the second time.

7. Sheamus defeated Mark Henry by countout. This was a slow plod. Sheamus scored the countout victory after throwing Henry into the announce table. Afterward, Henry killed Sheamus with the World's Strongest Slam onto the ring steps.

Looks like a decent show.

Sounds like a pretty solidy put together wrestling show. Wow, did I just see say the word "wrestling"? It's nice we still get to see some wrestling-focused TV from WWE. Hopefully, Christian vs. Bryan, Orton vs. Rhodes and Cara vs. Slater all got decent enough time and spots, even though SmackDown's only two hours. They are all PPV calibre matches right there, if good. I like whoever booked the matches for this week's SmackDown.

I appreciate they saved Henry vs. Sheamus for the main event, but seriously, I have absolutely no interest whatsoever in another renewed push for the WSM (World's Sloppiest Mong)....no WWE, the Universe don't find him as near as tough, strong or scary as we do lame and boring. They need to "Wish Mark Henry the best with all his future endeavors" and push Cody Rhodes ASAP; get him successfully defending that Intercontinental Title and move him up to the World Heavyweight Title picture - an Orton/Rhodes feud would be good. They're seriously under-utilising Wade Barrett, also.

Still, with all that said, looks like it should be an enjoyable show, I'll definitely watch.

What Kelly Kelly's new finisher move?

[CelticWarrior]

'Out comes Sheamus, who tells a story about how his uncle castrated a black bull. He is gonna do the same.'
Whoa.

I really enjoyed this episode of SmackDown. I am loving how Cody Rhodes' character has developed, I hope he gets elevated to main event heel soon.

Like I've already said, the only thing I don't have any interest is Mark Henry's main event heel push, although I must admit they have done a pretty good job in getting the angle over. Apart from that, a good solid show.
