To sell the Jeff Hardy pyro storyline, WWE announced the WWE Champion wouldn’t be appearing at last night’s SmackDown live event in Charleston, WV and offered refunds to fans in attendance as Hardy was scheduled to face Edge. They ended up opening the show with Edge coming out and talking about Hardy which brought out Hurricane Helms. They fought until Umaga came out to save Edge, setting up Edge and Umaga vs. Hurricane Helms and The Great Khali later on in the card, which saw Edge get the pinfall on Helms after a spear.
