WWE SmackDown Results For Friday:
– The Money in the Bank briefcase is hanging above the ring.
– Teddy Long announced that Christian would be barred from ringside during the Randy Orton vs. Mark Henry match. Christian demanded a World Heavyweight title match against Ramdy Orton at Money in the Bank.
– Randy Orton defeated Mark Henry by countout. During the match, Big Show’s music played and distracted Henry and allowed Orton to hit him with an RKO on the outside. This led to Henry getting counted out – and he started going berserk and destroying the ringside area.

– Backstage, Cody Rhodes talked trash to Ted DiBiase.
– Christian pinned Sin Cara with the spear. Sin Cara had some very solid, flashy offense and got some huge pops from the crowd. He also had a few spots that were almost botched, which Christian helped him recover from.

– Cody Rhodes (w/Ted DiBiase) defested Ezekiel Jackson in a non-title match. Cody got the win after DiBiase distracted Zeke.
– Kane beat Wade Barrett with the chokeslam for the win. This one appeared to be a Money In The Bank qualifying match.
