Smackdown Preview 05.14.10


With Over the Limit PPV matches on the horizon, each episode of Raw and Smackdown will get more intense. Tonight's Smackdown in particular will feature a battle between two of the scheduled competitors for an OTL match. Rey Mysterio and CM Punk will go one-on-one in the ring with no stipulations on the line yet. However, both superstars will look to gain momentum by winning this contest. Mysterio may also be watching his back, as in several past encounters with CM Punk, Rey has been attacked by a mysterious hooded figure. Will the mysterious SES member show up again tonight? Who will win as Mysterio and Punk battle nine days before OTL?

Also, last week's Smackdown had a volcanic eruption at the start of the show, as Drew McIntyre flew into a rage and repeatedly attacked Matt Hardy at ringside. GM Teddy Long warned McIntyre to stop, but the Intercontinental champ refused to listen. Due to his inability to follow the GM's orders, Drew was not only suspended, but then stripped of the IC title and fired on the spot. After Drew was escorted from the building, Teddy Long scheduled a tournament to determine the new IC champ. The winners of two matches would meet over the vacant championship. Tonight the Intercontinental title is decided as Kofi Kingston battles Christian. Which of these newly acquired Smackdown stars will become the new IC Champ?

And finally, as we head towards Over the Limit, Jack Swagger is looking for any edge he can gain over his future opponent, The Big Show. On their first in-ring meeting, Swagger got a KO punch from Big Show that left him face down. Last week, Swagger went one-on-one with Kane, with Big Show watching from the commentators' table. After the match, Kane attempted to chokeslam Swagger but was kicked down by the World Champion. However, Big Show was quickly up and knocked Swagger down, then chokeslammed him through the table. Swagger was left layed out once again. Will Jack Swagger be able to gain any momentum going into OTL, or is Big Show going to dominate?
