WWE taped this week's edition of WWE SmackDown tonight at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. Below are full taping results:
Dark Match:
* Chris Masters defeated Dos Caras with the Master Lock.
WWE SmackDown:
Teddy Long came out and announced that, because of the disqualification finish to the World Title match at Over the Limit, Big Show automatically qualified for the fatal four-way match at Fatal Four Way.
Drew McIntyre came out and complained about losing to Kofi Kingston. Teddy suggested that McIntyre worry about Matt Hardy. McIntyre pulled out a letter for Teddy Long to read out loud. The letter, written by Mr. McMahon, declared Matt Hardy suspended without pay. Matt Hardy came out but was pulled back by security. He didn't get anywhere near McIntyre.
1. Big Show and Kofi Kingston over Jack Swagger and Drew McIntyre after Big Show knocked out McIntyre. Fans were cheering, "Kofi! Kofi! Kofi!" My friend, who has limited knowledge on the product, said, "I could really go for some coffee right now."
Backstage, Vickie Guerrero hit on Dolph Ziggler and announced Ziggler and Chavo against Christian and Hornswoggle.
2. CM Punk over Kane to qualify for the fatal four-way match, with interference by the SES. CM Punk came out with a towel over his head. He pulled off the towel, only to reveal a black luchador-like mask. Kane tried to pull off the mask, but with no success. Punk botched the GTS twice. After the second attempt, he just pinned the Big Red Machine. No idea how this will play out on television.
3. Christian and Hornswoggle over Chavo Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler after Christian hit the Unprettier on Guerrero. After the match, Ziggler put Christian in a vicious sleeper hold.
Layla and Michelle McCool are apparently co-holders of the Women's Championship. They delivered a promo backstage and taunted Beth Phoenix.
4. Luke Gallows over MVP. Gallows won with interference by the masked man.
5. Undertaker over Rey Mysterio to qualify for the fatal four-way match. So the World Title match at Fatal Four Way will be Swagger vs. Punk vs. Big Show vs. The Undertaker.
There was no dark match after the show--just a random beatdown on Jack Swagger by JTG, R-Truth, MVP, Christian, and Matt Hardy. Fun show, overall.
Greatest Pops:
1. The Undertaker
2. Matt Hardy
3. Rey Mysterio
Greatest Heat:
1. This is surprising--David Otunga during NXT.
2. Chris Jericho
3. Vicki Guerrero
WWE shows have low turnouts in Cleveland, to the point where the upper section is usually closed off. This show had the upper section closed off, as well as a middle section. It was sad to see such a low turnout, but the crowd was really into the product.
