WWE Smackdown
Air Date: Sept. 27, 2013
-Triple H opens the show and talks about the heavy burden on him and his wife, carrying the company and being responsible for everything. He says that he gave all the Superstars a fair opportunity, which brings out The Miz. Miz asks the Game if he "really" thinks he's being fair to the roster. Triple H says Miz is the prime example of somebody who gets chance after chance, and fails, and it's not his fault that he can't capitalize on the chances given to him. Miz insults Stephanie, and Triple H books him in a match against Randy Orton later tonight.
(1) Alberto del Rio def. R-Truth. This is basically a squash.
-Del Rio beats down Truth after the match, locking in the Cross Arm Breaker and refusing to let go. Rob Van Dam makes the save, attacking the champ with a steel chair. RVD celebrates with the title and Ricardo.
-Triple H and Vickie Guerrero talk about what to do with RVD and Del Rio at WWE Battleground, and decide on a Hardcore Rules match.
(2) The Real Americas def. The Prime Time Players. Zeb Colter cut a promo before the match, so it looks like they found their voice again after a few weeks of radio silence. Young had the pin but the referee was distracted, and Swagger made him tap out with the Ankle Lock.
(3) Bray Wyatt def. Zack Ryder in a quick match
