Coverage and thoughts on the September 23, 2011 episode of Smackdown
The show starts with the whole WWE Roster at ringside and Johnny Ace talks about Triple H’s job as COO and then brings out the new World Champion Mark Henry. Henry says that it took him 15 years to win the World and that he it will be another 15 years before anyone take it. Triple H then comes out but before he can say anything Christian says that since he is a former 2 time World Champion that he is a leader and should get a Title match. He then says after Mark Henry loses the Title to Orton he will beat him and become a 3 time World Champion. Triple H then announces Christian vs. Mark Henry for the World Title in a Lumber Jack match for tonight’s main event. He then says that the entire roster will be the lumber jacks and the winner will face Randy Orton at the next PPV. This was a good opening segment.
Sheamus vs. Health Slater. Sheamus gets the pin. This was a decent match.
Backstage Christian tries to get Khali to help him out during his match later.
Justin Gabriel vs. Wade Barrett. Barrett gets the pin. This was a good match.
Matt Striker interviews Randy Orton and Orton says that he will drag Mark Henry or Christian to the depths of hell and we come back he will be World Champion.
Backstage Christian tries to Ezekiel Jackson to help in out in his match.
AJ & Kaitlyn vs. Beth Phoenix & Natalya. Beth & Natalya win when Beth pins AJ. This was a squash.
Randy Orton vs. Intercontinental Champion Cody Rhodes. Cody wins by DQ after hitting Cody with the protective mask. After the match Orton continues attacking Cody with Cody’s mask and DDTs him.
Backstage Christian talks to Sheamus and gives him potato as a peace offering because the Irish love potatoes and he asks Sheamus to help him out later. Sheamus tells him no problem. Christian walks out. Sheamus then bites the potato and then spits it out and says that it’s from Idaho Ireland
Great Khali vs. Jinder Mahal. Khali gets the pin. This was dull.
Sin Cara (Mistico) vs. Daniel Bryan. During the match Hunico came put and pushed Mistico off the top and took his spot and gets the pin.
Backstage Christian tries to get Zack Ryder to help him out during his match. Ryder then gets a call from Hugh Jackman and walks off.
WWE Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston & Evan Bourne vs. The Usos. Kofi & Bourne win when Bourne pins Jimmy. This was a real good back and forth match. These guys are really talented.
Christian vs. World Champion Mark Henry in a Lumber Jack match for the Title. The lumber jacks went after Henry and he cleaned house on them all. Christian then tried to bail, but Sheamus came out and threw Christian back in the ring and Henry hit the World’s Strongest Slam for the pin. After the match Randy Orton came out and went after Henry. He went for an RKO but Henry shoved him off. Orton then ducked a clothesline and drop kicked Henry out of the ring. They have a stare down with Mark Henry holding up the World Title to end the show. This was really fun to watch. The match was good as was Henry cleaning house on the lumber jacks and the post match Orton-Henry stuff was good too.
This was a really fun show overall. I liked the main event. They had some good stuff in there. The Kofi & Bourne-Usos match was also good to watch. Both teams are really good in the ring. On the whole this was a good show.
