LOL WWE spoiled this.

Still, it's awesome. I like it.

Thanks to Mike, Brian & @xaviervenom for the following WWE SmackDown spoilers from tonight's tapings in Miami, Florida: * SmackDown opens with CM Punk and Paul Heyman at Sun Life Stadium. Punk puts on The Rock's college football jersey. The stadium The Rock played college football at (the Orange Dome) is gone and the WWE that The Rock used to wrestle for is gone too. At the Royal Rumble, Punk is going to show The Rock that you can never go home.

* The Rock comes out for a promo. Flo Rida is in the house. The Rock is back on The Rock's show, SmackDown. Rock talks about his college football days. Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes come out. They say they are going to be champions soon and The Rock doesn't deserve this time. Rock says Cody has a dead caterpillar on his lip and makes fun of his lisp. Sandow has a wager for The Rock. Sandow says if Rock can answer 3 questions, he can stay. If not he leaves. Rock says bring it. Question 1 - who was the 19th US president. Rock says Rutherford B Hayes, b---h. Cody asks what movie won Best Picture in 1993. Rock says Schindlers List & he's right again. Question 3 - Rock says now it's his turn to ask a question. What happens when you combine a geological aggregate of minerals with its lowest form. Sandow says that's easy - you get Rock Bottom. Rock grabs him and gives him a Rock Bottom! Cody gets in Rock's face and gets a spine buster and then a People's Elbow. Rock celebrates.

* Lilian Garcia introduces SmackDown General Manager Booker T. Booker announces Antonio Cesaro vs. Randy Orton. The Rock will be in this very ring tonight. Also Big Show vs. Alberto Del Rio. Show comes out and confronts Booker. He gets a microphone and says his match with Del Rio is because Booker T has a personal vendetta against him. Big Show says Del Rio is only getting the match because they're in Miami and Del Rio is Latino. There are no more Latino heroes, no more Irish heroes, no Viper heroes. Del Rio runs out and attacks Big Show and clears him out of the ring. Loud chant for Del Rio.

* Backstage segment with Booker, Rhodes and Sandow.

* A pre-recorded video from Antonio Cesaro announces he will be in the Royal Rumble.

* Randy Orton vs. Antonio Cesaro is next. Cesaro comes out with the US flag. As Orton was in control and getting ready to hit the RKO, The Shield ran down and destroyed Orton & hit the 3-man power bomb.

* Show vs. Del Rio for later tonight will be a Last Man Standing match.

* Matt Striker interviews Heath Slater, Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre backstage about the Rumble. They have a score to settle with Sheamus tonight.

* AJ Lee and Dolph Ziggler vs. Natalya and The Great Khali is up next. Hornswoggle and Big E Langston are at ringside. AJ pins Natalya in a short match after hitting Sliced Bread. After the match, Langston levels Khali with his body tackle. Ziggler hit the leg drop on Khali and Langston hit his finisher on Hornswoggle.

* Sheamus vs. 3MB in a Handicap Match. 3MB runs away as soon as the match starts. Slater runs back and attacks Sheamus from behind but gets hit with a Brogue Kick. Sheamus gets the win.

* Kane and Daniel Bryan vs. Darren Young and Titus O'Neil is up next. Team Hell No win a quick match. Bryan's knee was taped up and he was limping after the match.

* Show vs. Del Rio in a Last Man Standing match is next. Del Rio came out in a Lamborghini. Big Show put him through a table on the outside. Del Rio starts using a chair on Show in the ring. Lots of back and forth. Show hits a choke slam and Del Rio gets up after 7. Outside the ring, Big Show slams Del Rio through the ringside barricade. Del Rio gets up after a 9 count and the crowd goes nuts. Back in the ring, Big Show nails Del Rio with the WMD knockout punch. Del Rio makes the count by rolling out of the ring at the last second and standing up. Big Show tries to hit Del Rio with ring steps but it backfired and he hits himself. Del Rio hits Big Show with the ring steps 3 times and Big Show is hurt. Del Rio turns the announcers table onto Big Show and gets the 10 count for the win. And new World Heavyweight Champion - Alberto Del Rio! Del Rio celebrates in the ring and in the crowd.

I don't get that line about the rock being in ring....then never mentioned again.

Well, they were in Miami, Rock was playing "host" I guess. Maybe WWE just wanted him to welcome fans to Smackdown, since they already were in Miami, where he lives.

Or, let's be honest: They just brought him out for no real reason. Similar to when they go to Canada and Bret Hart just shows up for no reason.

But they said in the red sentence he would be in ring tonight, right after he was just in the ring.

Wow wtf was that title change all about?

LOL I saw what you're talking about. Maybe on tv the line-up is going to be different. Maybe they'll show The Rock in the ring last on Friday, even though he came out early during taping.

Also, pretty pissed that TPWW Facebook spoiled this for me.

I guess this means Dolph will be champion soon. Which is cool.

Still, how did they come to the conclusion that they should spoil their own show? That's one of the most mind boggling things they've ever done. And they have a pretty impressive resume of doing stupid shit.

I never liked albert dorito anyway

....Dorito...

Pretty random title change.


Probably was just meant for the after show stuff.

Could be editing. They'll put that in to kick off the show, and maybe something happened after the show went off the air where The Rock did a small promo and rock bottom'ed someone.

Didn't WWE.com spoil Daniel Bryan's win too? Maybe it wasn't Bryan, but they've definitely done this before.

Foley.

I think it was Swagger that they spoiled

you mean like last fucking week?

And wwe spoils yet another title change

They did this when Kurt Angle won the world heavyweight championship on snackdown.

They have always spoiled Smackdown title changes. Nothing new here. I don't see the big deal. I bet Smackdown will get a lot more viewers this week than usual knowing that The Rock is appearing and the World title is changing hands.

Good shit, Big Show was kinda funny but never liked him as top guy.

Hope Del Rio hasnt won it just to hot potato to Ziggler though.

The only thing that could make this news better is if WWE signs El Generico :shifty:
Ole!

What I do hate about spoiling title changes though is that when a title match is scheduled and no spoiler comes out then you know that the champion retains.

Why couldn't they do this on RAW or on a live version of Smackdown?

IDK.

They spoiled when Edge cashed in on Taker. Also, when Swagger cashed in they spoiled it also. Some top notch shenanigans here.

Maybe they spoiled it so people will watch?

Ziggler has the MITB briefcase, plus he's in the Royal Rumble.

World Championship or bust, Dolph!

Because nobody watches Smackdown so they've clearly gone all out this week to stimulate some interest for the new year. Live Smackdowns sell themselves, probably why they always tend to be pretty disappointing IMO. But what would be the point in keeping all the shit in your regular time slot but saving all the good stuff for the Live specials on a Tuesday which most fans will probably tune into anyway.

I hope Dolph cashes in at Wrestlemania. They've always said that it could happen since MITB started, about time it did.

Vince McMahon's also, but that was in 1999.

DB's happened live on PPV.

Generico is garbage

I don't think this will happen (at least this year), but if WWE ever decides to unify titles, the position in which Dolph is in would probably be the best way to do it.

I mean, he's the Smackdown MITB briefcase holder, plus he's in the Rumble. So WWE could have the WWE and WHC matches go last, after the Royal Rumble match, have Dolph win it, and then cash in his MITB after the WHC match.

So they could portray him as the World Heavyweight Champion who's also challenging for the WWE Title at 'Mania.

I'd be down for that. If a young guy like Ziggler pulled that off, it'd really help his career. It'd make him a legitimate star.

... That's one stacked fucking Smackdown. No idea why they had to spoil the title switch though. Not sure why they couldn't have advertised that The Rock was going to be there and draw viewers in that way rather than spoil the title change.

well it was just smackdown so yeah they probably wanted people to watch

Well that changes things. I was thinking we'd get Big Show vs Ryback for the title at Wrestlemania, I mean we still could, but it'd seem a weird short title change.

How's Del Rio been doing as a face anyway?

Ugh.

Just ugh.

Wow...

I love Show as champion and his feud with Sheamus solidified him as a threat.

Del Rio turning face and taking the title from him so suddenly is pretty badass though.

It seems quite likely they just did it so Ziggler can take the title off of a face and then go into a feud with him. But still. I hope face Del Rio works out and this is a good step.
