Big Show vs Brian round 2 (Smackdown Ep 659 reviewed)

Smackdown began with the entrance of D-Bry, who wanted to set the record straight. He would insult Big Show again about his 45 second reign, but said that he was a decent champion and would give him a rematch. He would say that Haymanrules512 comments on message boards were a load of dung. D-Bry would then state that the problems came from Mark Henry, Henry should be suspended. Henry then would come down to the ring, Henry would then intimidate D-Bry, and said that he met with the GM, Teddy Long, and was banned from ring side, but by not interfering, Henry would get a title rematch against whoever wins next week. D-Bry would accept the match. Backstage AJ would tell D-Bry that she loved him.Later Big Show would be talking with a referee, AJ would interrupt them and said that she didn't want Daniel, Big Show would try to explain, D-Bry accused Big Show of stealing his girl, Big Show said that the title had changed him, but would take the title from him.

D-Bry vs Big Show would be no DQ and no Count outs, AJ would come down to support D-Bry. Big Show would dominate Bryan with fryingpan chops, headbutts and body slams. Big Show would counter D-Bry's attempted diving move with a massive spear. Big Show would continue his offense outside, until D-Bry would grab a chait and pummel Show, Show would punch the chair from D-Bry and grab it himself, D-Bry ran into the ring, as Big Show got up on the appron, D-Bry knocked him off with a dropkick and gained control. D-Bry would hit a DDT on the steel chair but only received a 2 count, Big Show took control again after numerous moves, he would attempt a chokeslam, but D-Bry would escape, however Big Show would still dominate, Show would clear the announcement table for a chokeslam, but a low blow would give D-Bry an escape but not for long, D-Bry would run from Show, AJ would be knocked over by Big Show, This would end the match as medical personnel came down and stretchered AJ out D-Bry went with her

The first match would be between former Nexus members Heath Slater and Justin Gabriel, due to the attack last week by Gabriel on Slater, after Slater lost to Hornswaggle last week, as Slater would attack Hornswaggle after the match. Gabriel would dominate the match until Slater delivered a right hand and took control. Gabriel would try to build up some momentum with a head scissors and hip toss, but Slater took contol again with an atomic drop. Slater would dominate the match and and prevent Gabriel from gaining any mimentum. Slater would argue with the ref, before going up top. Hornswaggle's music would play and distract Slater so that Gabriel could take advantage setting Slater up for a 450 splash for the win.

Cody Rhodes would come down to the ring, Insulting the crowd about being Spanish and claiming some were illegal immagrants. This was to brag about being the longest reigning Champion in WWE at this present time. He said that in 2012 he would pull an ultimate warrior- being a  Intercontinental champion and the world heavyweight champion by winning the rumble. His opponent Big Zeke, Ezikiel Jackson came down after the promo to begin the match. Zeke would demonstrate his power, but Cody would quickly gain control of Big Zeke, Zeke would break a front face lock and hit some powerful moves. Cody would counter a torture rack attempt and after a first missed attempt at his springboard kick, he would hit his second attempt and finish Zeke with the Cross Rhodes.

Smackdown would also have a segment showing the inductees of The Hall of Fame class 2012, this would be the Rated R superstarm Edge and The 4 Horseman.

Backstage Santino was running match ideas past Teddy Long, 1st being a small cage that is within a medium cage that is within a giant cage and that the referee would be the cage smith. 2nd would be reallowing reptiles to the ring. David Otunga would interrupt with a request from Lauranaitis to have a list of Smackdown stars which would be in the rumble. Santino would challenge Otunga to a match and Teddy made it happen. Drew would come in to talk to Teddy Long, but Teddy wouldn't listen, instead Teddy instructed Drew to win his match

Drew would compete against Ted DiBiase. Hunico and Camacho would come down to the ring before the match would begin on their bycicle. Drew attempted a quick pin, but resulted in a two count. DiBiase would send Drew outside, and hit an outside dive, but Drew gained control after hitting two spinebusters outside. Ted would reverse a running clothesling and pick up some momentum. Drew would counter a diving axehandle and regain control. Drew would go up top, with DiBiase, in an attempt to hit a super back suplex. However Drew would fall onto the ropes which would allow Dibiase to win.

Sheamus would take on Jinder Mahal after Mahal would hit Sheamus with the camal clutch last week. Jinder came down stating that he was not expected to win, and said he was most dangerous when unexpected. Sheamus would pound Mahal at the start off the match. Mahal would finally counter the Irish hand grenades and build up some offense. Sheamus would counter and land the Irish hand grenades and finished with a Brogue Kick.

Otunga vs Santino would start up with Otunga beating down on Santino, Santino would counter with a roll up but Otunga would kick out and take control. Santino would build up some momentum and attempt to hit the cobra, but Otunga would counter ( with what would appear to be a Celtic Cross used by Finlay rather than his one handed spinebuster) to win.

Brodus Clay would compete against Tyson Kidd. (Kidd obviously being a jobber) Brodus would win within a minute with a running cross body. He would then dance in the ring.

Tamina and Natalya would have a rematch from last week. Natalya would hit a big suplex but Tamina would return with a samoan drop followed by Superfly to win the match.

Wade Barrett would have a promo about him winning the Royal Rumble, and stating that Sheamus was not impressive, Wade Barrett would then challenge Sheamus to a match in Las Vegas next week on Smackdown.

WWE would put on a from the vault, with Cena, Taker, HBK and HHH vs Legacy and CM Punk from 2009. This would end as it did with Taker planting then Heel Orton with Tombstone Piledriver.

Overview:
The Title match was the best overall, however why have previous Divas been injured during these matches, and the match was never stopped. Why has this been the only one? I felt that something would happen when she came down, but that was a bit stupid.

The Royal Rumble promotion matches were very good matches, apart from Slater vs Gabriel as it had a dumb ending.

The Otunga vs Santino shocked me, but I was annoyed that Otunga decided to use a new finisher (Finlay's Celtic Cross)

Brodus had a Jobber match, yawn.

I will be looking forward to Barrett vs Sheamus next week as I believe Barrett will win the Rumble but with two heels competing next week, Sheamus may win, to respark the rivalry between him and Henry or to create a new one with Bryan.

Overall I would rate this 4/10
1 (Title match)
2 ( Henry gets a rematch)
3 ( Great match between Jinder and Sheamus)
4 ( Bug Build up for the Rumble)
