- A video package aired showing highlights of Cody Rhodes speaking at the 2007 WWE Hall of Fame inducting his father Dusty Rhodes. The events leading to tonight's Texas Bull Rope Match is also highlighted.
- Randy Orton defeated Dusty Rhodes in a Texas Bull Rope Match. Ross and Lawler make it clear you can win by pinfall or submission in this contest. We see each being strapped to the bull rope to get the match underway. Early on in the match, Orton continued to try and escape, but Rhodes would pull him back each time. Dusty was way over with the crowd in San Jose. Yet another short offering from WWE tonight with just a little over five minutes. The finish saw Orton hit Rhodes with the cow bell, a noise that echoed throughout the arena, to get the pinfall and the win. After the match, Orton looked to attack Dusty some more when Cody Rhodes hit the ring. Randy and Cody had a stare down as Randy left to the back. Really came off as a squash match believe it or not.
- A video package airs highlighting the events of Smackdown this past week showing how The Great Khali won the World Title in a 20 Man Battle Royal and how a no contest between Batista and Kane led into tonight's match.
- The Great Khali defeated Batista & Kane in a Triple Threat Match to retain the World Heavyweight Championship. During the entrances, Michael Cole noted that Edge had successfully surgery this week for his left torn pectoral muscle. Batista and Kane teamed up early on to slam Great Khali through the ECW announce table (which Khali cleared off earlier). Back in the ring, Kane gave Khali a chokeslam that got a big reaction from the crowd in San Jose. Batista broke up the pinfall attempt by Kane on Khali. Batista with a big spinebuster on Khali and Kane breaks up the pinfall attempt. Kane then responds with a big chokeslam on Batista. Kane leaves the ring going for a steel chair, but Batista counters that attempt by Kane. Batista hits a spinebuster and Batista Bomb on Kane, but Khali pulled Batista out of the ring during the pinfall. Khali then slammed Kane and got the pinfall to retain the title. Was about as much as you could expect out of a match involving Khali.
- Another promo for Triple H's return.
- King Booker came out to the arena along with Queen Sharmell. Booker cut a promo on Triple H saying he isn't the king of anything and that only king in WWE was King Booker. He also requested once again that Jerry Lawler, or "Jermone" Lawler as he called him, stop referring to himself as The King and charged him with an act of treason. Jim Ross announced that Triple H would returning at SummerSlam on August 26.
