WWE Smackdown

– *World Heavyweight Champion* Alberto Del Rio comes out first to “name” his SummerSlam opponent. He first says Brock Lesnar, but Brock is busy with Punk. He mentions Houston’s own Booker T, but then says that won’t work because like all things from Houston, Booker would be a disappointment. He then says that his opponent will be Ricardo Rodriguez. Vickie Guerrero comes out and says that since he was trying to disrespect her, he would face the winner of a Triple Threat main event between Rob Van Dam, Christian, and Randy Orton.

(1) Cody Rhodes def. Jack Swagger. Before the match gets started, footage of Rhodes throwing Damien Sandow’s Money in the Bank briefcase into the Gulf of Mexico is shown.

(2) Big E. Langston def. Sin Cara. Langston squashes Sin Cara quickly.

(3) C.M. Punk def. Fandango. Punk wins a fairly good match. He won using the Anaconda Vice following a superplex.

(4) *WWE Divas Champion* A.J. Lee def. Kaitlyn in a Championship Match. Layla stopped Kaitlyn from attacking A.J. outside the ring, then the duo skipped away together.

(5) Christian def. Randy Orton and Rob Van Dam. Christian becomes the new Number One Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship. Del Rio attacks him after the match to end the show.
