Thanks to WrestlingINC.com reader Colin Kriegel for sending in these results from tonight's WWE Smackdown live event in Toledo, OH. Michael Redner & M contributed to this report:
Tony Chimel welcomed the crowd.
* In the first contest of the night, The Great Khali defeated Primo and Epico in a 2 on 1 handicap match. Khali danced with Natalya after the match.
The crowd is told they can vote for the main event World Title Match Stipulation. Options are a street fight or 2 out of 3 falls.
* Yoshi Tatsu defeated Michael McGillicutty. McGillicutty attacked Yoshi after the match.
* Layla beat Alicia Fox in about a minute.
* Team Hell No cut a promo on the screen toward Rhodes Scholars.
* Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter cut a promo in the ring. Swagger then defeated Justin Gabriel with the Patriot Lock (and kept it on for a lengthy time after the bell).
* Alberto Del Rio defeated Big Show to retain the World Title in a Street Fight (with the cross arm breaker). Show also went through two tables in the match. There was a botched face buster by Del Rio off the second rope which was supposed to have sent Big Show through a table, but instead only Del Rio went through.
* Wade Barrett beat Bo Dallas to retain the IC title with a bull hammer as Bo was coming off the top rope. There was some mic work by Barrett, who was taling up his movie.
* Team Hell No defeated Team Rhodes Scholars. After the match Kane and Daniel Bryan had a lengthy argument that ended with a Hug.
* In the main event, Randy Orton beat Mark Henry by DQ as Henry hit Orton with a chair. Henry grabbed a chair after the match, but was pulled into the RKO instead to send the crowd home happy.
I was really surprised by the boos that were drowning out Swagger and Colter, they just haven't seemed that loud on TV. There seemed to be a lot of people who knew who Tatsu and McGillicutty were.
Really cool of Orton, as he stayed around ringside for pictures and shaking hands.
Biggest Pops:
1. Randy Orton for sure
2. Alberto Del Rio
3. Team Hell No
Most Heat:
1. Jack Swagger & Zeb Colter
2. Team Rhodes Scholars
3. Wade Barrett
Surprisingly, Mark Henry and The Big Show had probably 60/40 boos to cheers.
