WWE Smackdown Results
August 26th, 2011
Bret Hart's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring. Hart says that due to unforeseen circumstances, Teddy Long isn't going to be able to make it tonight. COO Triple H thought it would be a good idea to appoint him as the Special Guest General Manager of Smackdown tonight. Another first is going to take place this Tuesday, live, with Super Smackdown. Superstars from Raw will be there also. The best part is the main event. Hart says that the number one contender Mark Henry will take on Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship.
Christian's music hits and he makes his way to the ring. Christian says he wants to make one thing very clear to Hart and the entire world. Christian says it wasn't his fault that he lost at Summerslam. Christian blames one person, and it's Hart's friend Edge. Christian says he couldn't concentrate after the things Edge said to him. He couldn't concentrate and it cost him the World Heavyweight Championship. Christian gets in the ring and says everyone is excited that Hart is the General Manager of Smackdown tonight. Christian says he's entitled to an immediate rematch as the former World Heavyweight Champion. Christian says he's entitled to one more match and he wants it on Tuesday.
Hart says Christian doesn't listen to his friends. Hart says Edge gave Christian the best advice he could give him at Summerslam. Edge told him to stop being a crybaby because it's embarrassing. Hart says Christian is starting to become an embarrassment to his friends, family, the WWE Universe, the World Title, and, worst of all, an embarrassment to Canada. Hart asks Christian to do everyone and himself a favor – grow a set of balls, be a man, start at the bottom, and work your way back to the top like a man. Christian says they'll talk about embarrassment. Embarrassing is guys like Hart and Edge not being able to cope with the fact that when their career is over, it's really over. Christian says Hart is in his leather jacket and greasy hair like he's twenty-five years old. Christian tells him to let it go. He says he hopes Edge is listening because he's the only Canadian that's relevant anymore.
Christian says he figured Hart had the same business acumen as Teddy Long, so he brought something with him. Christian produces a letter and Hart mentions it has some big words. Christian says it's a legal document that clearly states that no WWE superstar shall receive a World Heavyweight Championship match before he does first. Hart says he can't fight the law so he makes the rematch for next week. Hart says the kind of match is the question. What kind of match do you give a guy that has nothing but excuses? Hart says that Christian deserves a Steel Cage Match. On Super Smackdown, it will be Christian taking on Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Steel Cage Match!

Hart asks if Henry is trying to intimidate him and Henry says he doesn't have to intimidate anybody.
Sheamus's music hits and he makes his way to the ring. Sheamus has a story. A long time ago, his uncle had a milk farm somewhere in Ireland.
