Commentary: Welcome to Smackdown, and off the back of last weeks ending with Triple H falling victim to the latest TNA assault, GM Teddy Long is looking for unity among his locker room, rather than letting personal feelings get in the way..........

Backstage: Christian is seen speaking to someone out of camera, someone who has returned and is prepared to fight alongside Christian tonight against CM Punk & Mark Henry...................

Backstage: A Car arrives in the Car Park, occupied by Paul Heyman, CM Punk, the TNA Tag Team Champions Team 3D & Knockouts Champion Gail Kim..........

Heyman heads straight to the office of Teddy Long, where he gloats about last week's actions, including injuries suffered putting Scott Hall out of action and the decimation of Triple H...........Teddy retaliates that this week TNA won't be able to use numbers to their advantage..............

Aksana v Maria 

Post Match: Up on the Titantron appears Rosemary, knelling in front of a coffin, as the camera pans around to the front, we see that there is a body inside the coffin, the camera zoioms in, and we then find out that is AKSANA lying in the coffin, and then Rosemary looks up to the camera and psychotically smiles......................and all this is seen by a clearly shaken Aksana in the ring.................

 Backstage Interview: Following the beatdown he suffered last week, does Christian regret his decision to reject the invitation by Paul Heyman to join TNA, Christian does not regret his decision, and promises that later tonight he and his partner will show Punk & Mark Henry what loyalty is all about, Renee then tries to find out who Chruistian's partnmer will be, but he tells her that she'll find out when TNA find out................

Promo: Scott Steiner strolls out to the ring, still agitated by the sudden arrival of Team 3D last week.................he demands that Team 3D come to the ring and face him lkike men, and not the cowards that attacked from behind last week...............

at this point Bubba Ray makes his way to the ring...............he claims that Steiner's legendary status as one half of the Greatest Tag Team in the business was usurped a long time ago by The Dudleys...................and it was time for him to move on...................

this causes Steiner to strike out and a massive brawl breaks out in the ring...........during this fight D'Von turns up at ringside and sets up a Table, which Bubba uses to send Steiner crashing through, then Team 3D walk off with arrogance.............

Ad Break

Commentary: The Mystery surrounding Brock Lesnar's new Employees continues to roll on, as up next Matt Hardy is to go one on one with Brock Lesnar in a Non Title Match....................

and here comes The Champion.................................but he's not here to compete, he claims that after last weeks "Incident" he is unable to compete this week, however he has a ready made replacement............to which one of the unidentified "Employees" makes his way to the ring....................

Matt Hardy v ????????? w/ Brock Lesnar

Mid Match: Lesnar tossed a steel chair into the ring, then distracted the referee long enough for his Employee to use the Chair on Matt Hardy.................over his head...........

Winner: ??????? via Pinfall.

So after claiming to be unable to compete, Lesnar was the deciding factor in this match..................

Backstage: Teddy Long bursts into the changing room of Alberto Del Rio, where Del Rio, Ziggler & Cesaro are, and Teddy is not in a good mood, especially after their actions last week.................Del Rio is not apologetic, he claims he has no reason to fight for Teddy or the WWE after the way he has been treated, and that it was maybe best for TNA to take over.............to this Teddy loses his temper completely, and tells them to get out of his arena, and not to even think about returning until their attitude changes.....................

Promo: Summer Rae calls out the Knockouts for a 1 on 1 match, making it clear that there be no numbers advantage, Gail Kim walks out, she reminds Summer that it was the Diva's last week that attacked from behind, yet still lost, but if Summer wants to face defeat again so be it..........later tonight she takes on Summer Rae..................

Ad Break

Promo: CM Punk stands in the ring, he has given Mark Henry the night off, since he has bigger things on his mind, because he has the utmost confidence that he can defeat both Christian and his mystery partner here tonight on his own.....................

then out comes Christian, followed by his Mystery Partner..........................................JEFF HARDY!!!!!!!!!!

Christian & Jeff Hardy enter the ring, and Punk's confident expression appears to have gone, asking for a mic, Christian gives Punk the option to call out a partner.....................Punk however claims he has nothing to fear because he's CM Punk, and if Christian thinks he's afraid of Jeff Hardy, then he doesn't know what CM Punk is all about................and then Christian falls victim to an attack from behind by................Jeff Hardy.......................resulting in CM Punk & Jeff Hardy leaving Christian beaten again and CM Punk feeling very proud of himself.....................

Backstage Interview: With so much going on on Smackdown, how is Teddy Long planning to deal with everything.........................Teddy deals with the World Title picture first, next week Lesnar finds out his TLC opponent, and should he abstain from wrestling again, he will be in breach of contract and stripped of the Title, as for TNA..........that is something he will address for everyone to hear..................

Gail Kim v Summer Rae

Winner: Gail Kim via Pinfall.

Promo: Paul Heyman walks out onto the stage with an announcement, however he is cut off by a clearly irritated Summer Rae...............however he will not be silenced, he feels that since Gail Kim has faced Summer Rae twice and bested her both times, it's time for Gail to get a Title shot, so he puts forward the 1st week of 2013 as the time, unless Summer Rae is afraid to lose the Title................Summer Rae agrees, however should Gail fail to win the Title then she should put the Knockouts Title on the line next....................Heyman agrees because Summer Rae can't beat Gail Kim, but now back to his announcement..........

he is here to address the Royal Rumble in January, since this is a WWE Event, and WWE are afraid of TNA, no TNA Wrestlers have been invited to be in the Rumble itself, he makes it clear that whatever happens, TNA will be the victors at the Rumble, however that may be......................

Just then Teddy Long comes out, he informs Heyman that TNA may not even exist come January, so no need to worry about that, however following the earlier assault by Bubba Ray on Scott Steiner, a WWE Tag Team Title match has been agreed upon for TLC against Team 3D......................
