WWE Smackdown Results
September 23rd, 2011
In the ring is WWE's Executive Vice President of Talent Relations John Laurinaitis. In Triple H's absence, he has assembled the Smackdown roster to discuss the accusations that Triple H, as COO, has lost control of WWE. That chaos engulfed Raw and culminated in the dismissal of two premiere superstars in R-Truth and The Miz. Laurinaitis says he has changed his mind and believes that Triple H has control of the situation. Some superstars and fans may not agree, but on Monday night, when he looked into Triple H's eyes, he saw resolve and determination. When Triple H gets here tonight, he hopes we see that in him too.
Now he'd like to announce the new World Heavyweight Champion Mark Henry. Henry makes his way to the ring to a chorus of boos. Henry gets in the ring and shakes hands with Laurinaitis. Henry says it's taken him fifteen years to earn this title, and it'll take fifteen more before somebody takes it away from him. There is no man here that's going to take what he has. Henry specifically calls out Ezekiel Jackson, saying he didn't believe in Henry. Henry says Teddy Long didn't believe. Now they believe.
Triple H's music hits and he makes his way to the ring. Triple H gets in the ring and offers his hand to Henry, but Henry won't shake it. Triple H continues to hold it out. Henry just hands him the microphone.
Before Triple H can get a word out, Christian says Hold on and enters the ring.

Christian says that Triple H's treatment of the superstars on Smackdown has been exemplary and he appreciates it. Triple H's credo has been to lead by example and as a former two-time World Heavyweight Champion, that's Christian's credo as well. Christian points to the roster at ringside and says they all look to him as a leader. Christian says he's kind of a big deal. Even though you know who is the champion, Christian asks if Triple H can see Henry's face on a billboard. Henry takes exception, but Triple H calms him down. Christian says that he's the face of Smackdown and for him to be the leader that he knows he can be, he kind of needs to be the World Heavyweight Champion. Christian says he deserves one more match to become the champion. Christian says after Hell in a Cell, when you know who chokes in his match, he'll be the guy that will pick up the rings and lead Smackdown. He'll embarrass and beat Randy Orton to become a three-time World Heavyweight Champion.
Triple H thanks the superstars for coming out, and assures them all that he is in complete control of Raw, Smackdown, and all of WWE. Triple H appreciates Christian stepping up as a leader. Triple H does lead by example, and he'll give Christian that opportunity to do so in front of all these WWE superstars.

In that match, their leader will go one-on-one for the World Heavyweight Championship against you know who, Mark Henry. The winner of that match will face Randy Orton at Hell in a Cell.
