Smackdown SPOILERS 8/17
Smackdown opens with Alberto Del Rio coming out and demanding his title match at Summerslam. Smackdown GM Booker T comes out to tell Del Rio that a real man does not hire five goons dressed as police to take someone out. Chris Jericho comes out; Y2J tells Del Rio that everyone is sick of him whining like a chihuahua and that his breath smells like dog poop. He said the dog poop part in Spanish, then explained what he said for those who don't speak Spanish. Booker T set up Del Rio vs. Jericho as the main event.
(1) Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara defeated IC champion The Miz & Cody Rhodes.
After the match, Miz tried to attack Rey with the IC Title belt, but failed and ate a 619. The belt was lying outside the ring and Rey looked down at it for a bit, then held it up to cheers to promote Rey vs. Miz at Summerslam.
(2) Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks defeated two jobbers who weren't even introduced. The crowd really wanted Ryback here, as they chanted "Feed Me More," but no.
(3) Eve defeated Kaitlyn to become Booker T's assistant.
(4) Randy Orton defeated Daniel Bryan. Another good match that came down to DB putting RKO in the Yes! lock, only for Kane's explosion to go off. Bryan got out of the ring looking around for Kane, but he never showed up. Bryan got back in the ring, took an RKO, and that was that.
Kane then showed up on the entrance ramp before walking backstage.
(5) Antonio Cesaro defeated Zack Ryder. Quick match.
(6) Alberto Del Rio defeated Chris Jericho. Before Jericho could even come out, he was attacked by Dolph Ziggler backstage. After the commercial break, Del Rio said he wins by forefit, but then Jericho's music hit and Y2J walked out holding his ribs. Back and forth match before Ziggler ran out to interfere and pulled down the ropes. This cost Jericho the match and gave Del Rio the pin.
Afterward, Del Rio put Jericho in his submission hold with Ziggler egging him on. Sheamus's music then hit and he stormed the ring to go after Del Rio. Del Rio ran into the crowd and then Booker T came out. Sheamus told Booker he wants his match at Summerslam, but Booker said he is injured. Sheamus replied that he would need to be missing an arm to be injured. Booker made sure that Sheamus understood the title would be on the line and then put the match back on. Sheamus then beat up Del Rio some more outside the ring, then Del Rio ran away and Sheamus celebrated in the crowd.
