WWE Friday Night SmackDown Spoilers for July 2nd, 2010
The Smackdown taping began with Jack Swagger coming out to cut a promo about last week's match with Big Show. He also complained about losing the World Hvt. Title at the Fatal Four-Way PPV.
Big Show interrupted selling his ankle injury. Show promised to break Swagger's jaw. As Show started to enter the ring, Cody Rhodes jumped him. Swagger and Rhodes KO'ed Show and started working over his ankles. Rey Mysterio then made the save and helped clear the ring.
There was a follow-up angle for the live audience as Swagger decided to invoke his re-match clause in a World Title match against Mysterio. Smackdown GM Teddy Long then confirmed the title match and said it will be in a steel cage later tonight.
(1) Intercontinental champion Kofi Kingston beat Dolph Ziggler (w/Vickie Guerrero). Kingston hit Trouble in Paradise for the win. Vickie left Dolph in the ring after the loss.
