WWE taped this week's edition of Smackdown tonight from the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan. Thanks to WNW reader Shi for providing us with text-message updates. Below are full results:

Smackdown (Airing Friday on MyNetwork TV):

* The show opens with the Peep Show featuring Christian. Alberto Del Rio comes out and interrupts. Del Rio rants about the only thing Christian needs to know about him is what he did to Rey Mysterio. Christian says he has survived greats in WWE and challenged Del Rio to a match at Night of Champion. Del Rio declined then said he'll think about it before tapping Christian on the cheek. Christian spins Del Rio around and slaps him which sends him retreating. Del Rio screams "NO" at him on his way up the ramp.

* WWE Tag Team Champions The Hart Dynasty vs. "Dashing" Cody Rhodes & Drew McIntyre in a non-title match. Winners via Cody Rhodes hitting Cross Rhodes on David Hart Smith, "Dashing" Cody Rhodes & Drew McIntyre.

*Kofi Kingston comes out and cuts a promo on WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler. He says all Dolph does is hide behind Vickie Guerrero and calls her a "loud mouth, nasty, beast of a woman". Kofi is sure he'll win at Night of Champions on Sunday and will rid the WWE Universe of Vickie and Dolph.

* Kofi Kingston vs. Jack Swagger. Swagger was in control of the match for 80% of it. The crowd was actually chanting for Swagger through part of it. Kofi ends up hitting a spin kick to the head of Swagger and pins him to win the match.

* They continue to hype Kane vs. The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship at Night of Champions on Sunday.

* Backstage, Teddy Long is with Hornswoggle and a nun (no, I'm not making this up). The nun is trying to teach Hornswoggle his ABC's as Hornswoggle plays a prank on Long, getting him in trouble.

* Kelly Kelly & Rosa Mendes w/Naomi vs. WWE Women's Champions LayCool w/Kaval. Winners via Michelle McCool pinning Rosa Medes, LayCool.

* CM Punk vs. Christian with Alberto Del Rio at ringside with announcers. Punk and Christian work with on another until they bump heads and both go down. They begin to stir when the referee gets to the count of nine. Del Rio interrupts the match but Punk counters and hits GTS. Punk leaves the ring but Del Rio follows. Big Show comes out and goes to the ring. When Punk gets back in, Show hits the knockout punch on him.

* World Heavyweight Champion Kane comes out and cuts a promo on The Undertaker. He says their rivalry will end on Sunday at Night of Champions. Kane says no holds barred is exactly what he wanted. The Undertaker's music hits and he comes out. The lights go out and when they come back up Kane is behind Undertaker at the top of the ramp. Kane and Undertaker exchange blows but move to the ring. Kane hits a chokeslam and a piledriver on The Undertaker. The pyros go off in the ring posts and Kane leaves ringside.

Michael Cole is one the best things about Nxt and this current diva season without the giant diva the show is crap imo

Yep, I am. I'm enjoying the whole comedy aspect to it (esp with Cole on commentary). Naomi will probably win it imo.

Nice to see the Hart Dynasty on SD but I'd say it's safe to assume Rhodes/McIntyre will go up against them at Night of Champions. Del Rio/Christian is coming along nicely as well.

Michael Cole's rant at the end of NXT was brilliant

About 6 minutes in

I'm loving heel Michael Cole. I actually want him to be the Raw GM. I think it would be fantastic.

CMpunked

Possibility of a kofi heel turn?

grames_bond

I have to agree, Cole is brilliant on NXT, i just wish they would turn him full face on RAW, instead of what he is currently doing and swapping between heel and face depending on who is in the ring!

paddyismaddy

vickie looks like she lost some weight maybe she could give fatt hardy some tips

Wowzers at Michael Cole. He looked real serious, i wonder how this will play out for RAW or will it have any effect. Should be fun to see how him and Striker get on at NoC Sunday night.

Also, why oh why did Vickie have to have such a tight tracksuit on???:eek:

Thank god for Cole on NXT - the laugh he made of it made the crapness of it acceptable.

Now something that was not Crap. Alberto Del Rio. I have only watched the start of Smackdown so far but Alberto was Brilliant. He's my new 2nd favourite Wrestler.
