Wedding Crashers: WWE SmackDown! Rebound

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

Kennedy lands a series of punches after the shove from Umaga. Umaga turns into a wall as Kennedy hits the ground running. After waving off a kick, the Samoan Bulldozer drops him again with a clothesline. Kennedy recovers and delivers a splash, but Umaga levels him with an elbow in the corner. Umaga applies a Samoan Vise Lock on Kennedy’s shoulder, but Kennedy fights out of it, only to get laid out with a Samoan Drop.

Umaga continues the pressure on Kennedy, and a botched body slam gives him complete control. It is only after a missed splash that Kennedy is able to regain momentum. After nailing the spinning heel kick, Kennedy goes for the Mic Check, but Umaga blocks the finisher and nails the Samoan Spike to pick up the victory.

Going into the break, SmackDown! unveils the new Slim Jim commercial featuring Edge.

Sixth Bout: The Dirt Sheet defeat Jesse and Festus

Jesse and Morrison start part two of the Fatal Four Way preview. After Festus scares the pants off of Morrison, he comes in briefly to land a headbutt on the Shaman. But thanks to the Miz, the champs are able to gain control of the match. After Miz makes a mistake, Jesse is able to tag in his partner.

As Morrison and Festus fight on the outside, Miz tries to gain control on the inside. After getting shot with the Biscuits Splash, Miz is saved by his partner. Jesse tosses him outside to an awaiting Festus, who drops him with the Gravy Train. On the inside, Miz hits the Reality Check on Jesse to pick up the win and the momentum for the Bash.

Back on SmackDown!, JR and Mick recap the anarchy that is RAW and do a rundown of this Sunday’s Great American Bash.

Before the main event even begins, the Hardyz grab the cake and toss it onto the wedding party en route to the ring.

Main Event: Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy (No Contest due to Interference)

Both brothers exchange arm wrenches and arm drag takedowns to start the match. Jeff gets the Twist of Fate blocked but hits the Whisper in the Wind. As Jeff flips back into the ring, Matt sends him back outside with a clothesline. Back inside, Jeff blocks the submission and lands the donkey kick. After a Side Effect, Jeff misses the Swanton Bomb.

Matt recovers and lands a moonsault on his brother, but before he can pick up a victory, La Familia hits the ring and drops the brothers. After Edge spears both of them, they are cleared out of the ring to make room for a special edition of The Cutting Edge.

Back on The Cutting Edge, Edge is showing a video montage of the journey that he and his new bride took to get to this point. As the video ends, the show is saved by the appearance of Triple H. The Game comes bearing gifts for the happy couple. His first gift is a video piece that shows Edge and Alicia Fox. Now at first glance, everything seems normal as the groom and the wedding planner go over the gameplan for the wedding.

But as the video continues, Edge feigns a shoulder/neck problem in a way to get a massage from Ms. Fox. Edge reaches his breaking point and sends the crew to take down his opponent for the Bash.

Triple H was prepared for an ambush as he unveils his second gift: his patented Sledgehammer. As we return to the video, Edge is finishing off his massage with Alicia Fox, and in the process, he starts insulting his wife’s “size.” Triple H throws more gas on the fire as he unveils his third gift: A pair of Vickie’s “parachutes.” As we go back to the video, Edge and Alicia begin to play tonsil hockey on the couch.

As Triple H walks away smiling and laughing, La Familia is holding back a screaming and cussing Vickie from a frantic Edge, who runs away as SmackDown! goes off the air.
