July 29 , 2011 Smackdown results The July 29 , 2011 Edition of Smackdown is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s Smackdown brand , which took place on July 26 , 2011 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia , Pennsylvania . Summary . Following his first State of the WWE Address on Monday Night Raw , Triple H journeyed to SmackDown . He immediately addressed the WWE Championship situation on Raw , acknowledging that Punk has been re - signed and that there are , in fact , two WWE Champions – The Second City Saint and John Cena . He vowed to make a decision on how to handle this problem this Monday night on Raw . World Heavyweight Champion Christian interrupted Triple H , assuming the new man in charge would want to establish “ a closer , working relationship ” with him . However , taking the interruption as “ a slap in the face , ” Triple H declared that Christian will put his title on the line at SummerSlam against Randy Orton in a No Holds Barred Match . Soon after Raw Superstar R - Truth interrupted as well – proclaiming himself a “ man of action ” – Triple H decided to provide some for both he and Christian . To the delight of the WWE Universe , he decreed that R - Truth would face Randy Orton and Christian would take on John Morrison . Shortly after addressing the WWE Universe , COO Triple H decided to appoint Zack Ryder as the new Assistant to SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long . With his neck still clearly not 100 percent , John Morrison came to SmackDown to battle Christian . However , seconds after avoiding The Guru of Greatness ’ Starship Pain , the World Heavyweight Champion took advantage of his foe ’ s lingering injury . Catapulting Morrison ’ s neck off the top rope , the crafty champion claimed victory with the Killswitch . Making it clear that he came to the United States and WWE to make money , Wade Barrett said that he is returning to basics , proclaiming that greed is overrated . However , when he began to bad mouth Daniel Bryan , Mr . Money in the Bank took exception . Barrett struck the determined Superstar and began to berate him . But , Bryan quickly turned the tables , cinching in the LeBell Lock on the English grappler . After Alicia Fox avoided an aerial attack from SmackDown ’ s “ spitfire ” AJ , the dangerous Diva executed a brutal scissors kick for the win . But , which of WWE ’ s battling beauties will reign supreme this Monday on Raw when the Divas of WWE compete in a Battle Royal to determine the No . 1 contender to Kelly Kelly ’ s Divas Championship ? With no Superstars apparently willing to take on the destructive Mark Henry , Zack Ryder – SmackDown GM Theodore Long ’ s new Assistant – promised to get him an opponent . This ultimately came in the form of a local athlete , half Henry ’ s size . Decimating his outmatched foe , The World ’ s Strongest Man opted to continue his assault after the bell . Moments after Teddy Long rushed to the ring to try and stop the madness , Sheamus emerged . Provoking the furious Henry to charge toward him with a humiliating slap , Sheamus dropped the rope at the last moment , sending the subject of his ridicule crashing to the ringside floor . The massive Superstar tried to get back in the ring , but was promptly stopped by the chair - wielding Irish brawler . Despite the fact that The Usos scored a non - title match victory over McGillicutty & Otunga on " WWE Superstars , " they failed to overcome the WWE Tag Team Champions when the titles were on the line . With McGillicutty in trouble , Otunga threw a war torn Jimmy Uso into the ring . This distracted the referee long enough for Otunga to hurl the legal man Jey Uso off the top rope , paving the way for the recovering McGillicutty to hit Jey with the neckbreaker for the three - count . Ezekiel Jackson showed the courage and determination of a true Intercontinental Champion , taking on both Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase – at the urging of the newly appointed Assistant to the SmackDown Manager , Zack Ryder . But , when The Personification of Domination slammed his shoulder into the steel ring post , the bitter Rhodes took advantage , triumphing over his prey with the Cross Rhodes . When the observing World Heavyweight Champion Christian jumped up on the ring apron to disrupt SmackDown ’ s main event , R - Truth used the distraction to hit Randy Orton with a water bottle . This infuriated WWE ’ s Apex Predator , who attacked his opponent with a chair and forced the referee to call for the bell . Despite the fact that he had lost the match by disqualification , The Viper sent a powerful message to both R - Truth and his lurking SummerSlam opponent . After hitting R - Truth with a monitor , Orton blasted him with an RKO onto the announce table , not once but twice .
