*SPOILERS* SmackDown Tapings Results For Tonight

Dustin Alan from Omaha here, I attended Tuesday’s Smackdown tapings and here is my recap.

Quite an interesting show it was. Much fun was had. You know, when you start to lose interest in the WWE product, going to see it live really invigorates the love of pro wrestling. To start it off…..

Pre-NXT dark match

– The USO’s defeated Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks in a very good match.

NXT

– Titus O’Neil came out with a horrible, horrible promo (which included stuttering, putting words in the wrong order) to be followed by Darren Young who sided together when Percy Watson and Alex Riley came out to challenge them to a match.

– Tyson Kidd defeated Trent Baretta in a really, really good match.

– Heath Slater was punked out by Derrick Bateman in an all around boring promo

– Maxine was distracted by Johnny Curtis which led to quite possibly the greatest roll-up ever done by someone who considered themselves a professional wrestler.

-Young and O’Neil sloppily defeated Riley and Watson it what looked like an idie match. It was shocking that a guy with O’Neil’s skills was paid by WWE.

Superstars

– Jinder Mahal submitted Yoshi Tatsu in their match.

Smackdown

-The show opens with Theodore Long in the ring as he announces the participants in the 2012 Smack Elimination Chamber match:

Daniel Bryan, Big Show, Mark Henry, Cody Rhodes, Wade Barrett, Randy Orton

A few minutes later, out comes Mark Henry demanding that he be taken out of the Elimination Chamber match and granted a World Title match against Bryan tonight. Teddy says, “you lost, your lucky I even put you in the Chamber match.” Henry complains more and Teddy removes him from the Chamber match (only to be sadly, sadly replaced by The Great Khali) and doesn’t grant him a title match. Henry fiddles with Teddy’s tie, Teddy gets angry that he put his hands on the GM so he indefinitely suspends Henry. Henry grabs Teddy but out comes Sheamus to a huge pop and argues a bit with Mark and Teddy before Brode Kicking Henry out of the ring. Cody Rhodes came out to tell Sheamus that he needs to be worried about Wrestlemania because he will be facing the Intercontinental Champion as well as the World Heavyweight Champion Cody Rhodes after the Chamber match. Teddy then made a match between the two.

– Sheamus defeated Cody

– Justin Gabriel came out for the next match with Hunico but before that could begin, Rhodes, who was still upset with the loss and hanging out ringside, proceeded to jump Gabriel from behind and Hunico and Camacho joined in until The Great Khali came down to save Gabriel.

– In a backstage segment, Teddy told Drew McIntyre he needs to think of something to do to impress Teddy, then Santino told Teddy he found a new partner in Hacksaw Jim Duggan, then Aksana came in to talk with Teddy, only to inform him of the giant wood below the camera. (She picked up Hacksaw’s 2X4, get your mind out of the gutter).

– Santino and Duggan were defeated by Primo and Epico.

– Cole Interviewed Daniel Bryan saying he was wrong and he is now behind Daniel Bryan and offered him a handshake. Bryan declined and went on a vegan rant, Big Show finally came out and confronted Bryan. Bryan poked and prodded at Show until AJ with a neck brace came out to stop Bryan getting whooped.

– Next, somebody call Brodus Clay’s mama because she won’t believe the hurting he put on Heath Slater! Not to mention, Drew McIntyre came out after the match to make an impact on Brodus only to be eradicated by the Funkasaurus. Someone, please, please call his mama!

– Beth and Natalya were backstage before their match only to set up more fart jokes on Natalya.

– Beth and Natalya faced Aksana and Tamina in a tag match, Beth came in out of nowhere to get the pin on Aksana after delivering her finisher. (I could only assume they are building up a Phoenix / Karma match at Mania.)

– Orton and Barrett faced off in a pretty good No DQ match. Orton defeated not one, but two tables, breaking the legs on 1 and going through the other after being pushed off the top rope. Barrett hit his finisher shortly after but Orton kicked out. Then Orton fought back and delivered and RKO to Barrett, followed up by another RKO, this time on a chair, then got the pin.

– Bryan came out during Orton’s celebration only to steal the spotlight without saying anything then left. Teddy announced Orton would face Bryan on next weeks Smackdown.

In the dark match after the tapings, Bryan defeated Big Show via DQ after McIntyre and Mahal came out to beat up on Show but to little effort as Show easily fought back and sent the crowd home.
