SmackDown results: Del Rio made Ziggler tap out, but Big Show delivered the final blow

SAN DIEGO ? Following Big Show?s vicious attack on Raw, World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio?s attempt at giant retribution ultimately backfired. Meanwhile, SmackDown?s elite looked to shock-and-awe in a series of explosive showdowns, hoping to earn their place in the World Heavyweight Title No. 1 Contender?s Elimination Chamber Match.

As SmackDown began, an agitated Alberto Del Rio was seen pacing in the parking lot, weapon in hand, presumable awaiting for the arrival of The World?s Largest Athlete and payback for the actions against him and Ricardo Rodriguez on Raw.?

Inside, General Manager Booker T officially opened SmackDown, surrounded by select group of former World Heavyweight Champions. He declared that their status made them all possible entries in the upcoming No. 1 Contender?s Elimination Chamber Match ? at the pay-per-view of the same name ? to determine who would face Alberto Del Rio for the World Title at WrestleMania.

Returning after a long absence, Jack Swagger interrupted the head of the blue brand. Revealing that he had been living as a ?real American? in his absence from WWE, Swagger said that he was disappointed with the direction WWE had been heading before insisting that ? since he was also a former World Heavyweight Champion ? he should also be considered for the Elimination Chamber.

In contrast, Dolph Ziggler stated that since he was already Mr. Money in the Bank, he would decline the invitation to be a candidate for one of the most brutal matches in WWE history. Nevertheless, Booker informed The Showoff that he would compete in a main event match against World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio.

The rest of the former World Heavyweight Champions would also be in action, with the goal of impressing both the GM and Senior Advisor Theodore Long. If they did, they might be put into the Elimination Chamber Match in 16 days with an opportunity to face Del Rio on The Grandest Stage of Them All on the line.

The first match would be WWE Tag Team Champions Team Hell No vs. Sin Cara (who had yet to become World Champion and would presumably not be considered) and San Diego?s own, the returning Rey Mysterio!
