Smackdown Results 07/08/11

Smackdown Results from Tucson, AZ:

The show opened with all of the Smackdown Money in the Bank ladder match contestants in the ring, minus Sheamus. They were all asked if they will be able to defeat the rest of the group to win the World Heavyweight Championship title match contract hanging in the MITB case. Sheamus appeared suddenly with a chair in hand and cleared the ring of everyone else. Sheamus demands a title match against Orton since he was punted out of the title match by Orton several days ahead of Capitol Punishment.

#1 Contender Christian came out and said in his title match at MITB if Orton is DQ'd or the ref makes a bad call, Christian is automatically awarded the World Heavyweight Championship. Smackdown GM Teddy Long arrived out and said the main event tonight will be Sheamus versus the World Champ Randy Orton in a non-title bout.
