Tonight’s broadcast opens with a preview of the wedding reception followed by footage of the wedding of Vickie and Edge. As the show goes live, the wedding party is led into Flair Country by the best man, Chavo Guerrero.

First Bout: Hawkins & Ryder defeat Finswoggle (Special Referee: Edge)

Edge plays the role referee in this match as he tosses the shillelagh towards the ramp. He then shows his biased side by allowing his Edgeheads to take control with cheap tactics. After the ‘heads block the Cross on their boss, Edge spears Finlay to give his boys the victory. So far, so good for La Familia.

As Edge returns to his guest, the “lucky” couple has their first dance as husband and wife. All of a sudden, The Big Show drops in to cut in. As a penalty for his interference, Edge puts him a deadly game of handicap.

Second Bout: Big Show defeats Shelton, Khali, Kozlov & MVP (Four on One)

Shelton starts the match by getting tossed back to his corner in a show of strength. Kozlov comes in but gets shoved back to his corner. After Khali comes in, all hell breaks loose. As Khali gets clotheslined to the ground, his three partners come in and intervene, prompting the ref to scrap the match. After his buddies for the night take down the big man, Show gets dropped once more with a Khali Bomb.

Show wins…sort of.

Going into the break, we find out that Matt and Jeff Hardy will be in action tonight…against each other.

Third Bout: Natalya and Vickie defeat Cherry

Back on SmackDown!, Vickie is still gunning for respect as she prepares to toss the bouquet to a few awaiting Divas. After Michelle gets removed from ringside for her fight with Natalya, Cherry manages to catch the arrangement. What Vickie said next would make her regret that. Cherry gets thrown into a match with Vickie…and Natalya.

After Natalya makes her submit with a Sharpshooter, Vickie sneaks in and grabs the quick pinfall. So far, La Familia has managed to take the show to the crapper.

Fourth Bout: Brian Kendrick defeats Jimmy Wang Yang

Kendrick and Yang exchange technical moves as the match begins. Yang has an armbar applied but decides to go airborne with a set of hurracanranas. On the outside, Ezekiel provides enough distraction to give Kendrick control. Kendrick applies a key lock, but Yang slips out and nails a missile dropkick to gain the advantage.

As Yang goes for the Yang Time Moonsault, Ezekiel steps in again to run interference and Kendrick takes advantage by nailing the Sliced Bread for the win in his return to SmackDown!

Fifth Bout: Umaga defeats Kennedy

    I am not too sure who called it, but I do remember reading an article a couple of weeks back with someone saying that they did think this would happen. I think this will be a big help for Smackdown because now that Edge has basically slapped La Familia in the face, there will be retribution...especially if Edge wins the title from Great American Bash.
