Smackdown Summary

Alberto Del Rio and Teddy Long Opener:  This was a great promo on the part of Del Rio.  He played the role of villian perfectly, you legitimately believed in the things he was saying.  The touch of having Del Rio truly believes that he should just be handed the title, was great.

Kofi Kingston Vs. Ezekiel Jackson:  Another match where Jackson obliterates his smaller opponent.  The ending showed Jackson showing some individuality from The Corre, and I welcome this.  The sooner we are all done with this Corre crap the better.  Anyone else shocked that Ezekiel Jackson struggled to hold up Kofi?

Cody Rhodes Promo:  This was a fantastic promo in my opinion.  It's good to see Cody was able to find a truly interesting angle and be given the chance to do a truly interesting and entertaining promo.  I am really liking the whole psycho obsessive character and can't wait to see it develop from here.

Rey Mysterio Vs. Drew Mcyntire:  A pretty good match put on by these two.  I am curious to see as to the reason they are pushing Mcyntire be a constant loser.  This has to be leading up to something and I just pray its not stupid.

Edge's Fairwell Speech:  This was a truly touching speech given by the Rated R Superstar.  He really spoke from the heart and brought up many great memories that some of us may have forgot.  Seeing his mom crying ringside and having the crowd cheer her really got me choked up.  It's sad to see Edge go and I know I'm not alone when I say I will truly miss him in the ring.

Kelly Kelly Vs. Layla:  A decent match by these two, and of course Lay-Cool disbanded.  Let's see how well these two divas do on their own.


Number 1 Contender 20 Man Battle Royal:  This was a fun Royal Rumble type match and definitely had some exciting moments during the match.  It was pretty obvious that Christian was going to win.  This is very interesting that they finally gave Christian a title shot, and even more interesting to see if they actually give him his first title.
