This episode of Smackdown features Rey Mysterio calling out The World Heavyweight Champion The Undertaker. Plus, John Morrison and R Truth take on Chris Jericho and Drew McIntyre in a tag team match. Also, CM Punk saves another soul. All this, plus a whole lot more.

Tonight we emanate from beautiful Greenville, South Carolina.

Batista vs. Finlay.
Finlay gets in some early offense, and that doesn’t bode well for him. Endgame: Batista and Finlay are outside the ring, Batista gouges Finlay’s eyes, and the ref rings the bell. Your winner as a result of a disqualification, Finlay. Post-match, Batista beats down Finlay in and out of the ring. He has a mic and says that that’s what’s going to happen at the Royal Rumble.

CM Punk and Luke Gallows hold another soul saving session. This time, it’s a rather voluptuous young woman. She accosts Punk and Gallows, and gets led away by security. Punk lets her get back into the ring. We find out that her name is Serena. She says she’s an addict and she really wants to change. Serena then gets the obligatory head shaving that the two previous disciples had received.

Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre and Chris Jericho vs. John Morrison in a Handicap Match.
Pre-match, Teddy Long appears and informs us that this now a tag team match. John Morrison’s partner is R Truth.

Drew McIntyre and Chris Jericho vs. John Morrison and R Truth.
Truth gets hurt halfway through the match. Jericho and Morrison take advantage by double teaming Morrison. Eventually, Morrison does get a hot tag to Truth. Endgame: Morrison kicks Jericho from outside the ring. Jericho turns around into a scissors kick from Truth for the 1-2-3. Your winners as a result of a pinfall, John Morrison and R Truth.

Team Lay-Cool are in the ring, and they have a table, balloons, and party snacks. They tell us that Mickie James will be leaving Smackdown. They get interrupted by Maria and Mickie James. Words are said, punches and kicks are thrown. Beth Phoenix comes in and she helps Lay-Cool get the upper hand. Michelle shoves a pig-shaped cake into Mickie’s face, and drops a punch bowl over her head.

Mike Knox and Charlie Haas vs. Cryme Tyme.
Before the match can really get under way, Kane’s pyro blasts, and he comes to the ring and cleans house, throwing all four men over the top rope, Royal Rumble-style.

The Great Khali and Matt Hardy vs. The Hart Dynasty.
Pre-match, Natalya and Khali make goo-goo eyes at each other. The match itself is pretty quick. Endgame: Natalya tries to distract Khali. As she does, the Hart’s botch a double team on Hardy who rolls up Smith for the 1-2-3. Your winners as a result of a pinfall, The Great Khali and Matt Hardy.

Rey Mysterio calls out The Undertaker. The two have a good back and forth. It ends with Rey getting jumped from behind by Batista in the ring, who drops him with the Batista-Bomb.

Fade to black, good night from Greenville.
