He proclaimed that destiny can be delayed , but not stopped . The Master Manipulator interrupted him , rolling in on a tow truck containing Del Rio ’ s ruined luxury automobile . The Ultimate Opportunist opted to add insult to “ auto ” - injury , spray painting his elitist foe ’ s fancy ride . Although an outraged Del Rio demanded another title match , Edge responded that Christian deserved it more , since Captain Charisma had defeated Del Rio in singles SmackDown matches two weeks in a row . Before things turned physical , SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long created a main event No . 1 Contender ’ s Match between Christian and Del Rio . The winner would face Edge at Extreme Rules in a Ladder Match .

As Kane was preparing to finish Barrett with a chokeslam , The Corre ’ s use of excessive force brought the disqualification , giving their opponents the third fall and the overall victory . The Corre was then treated to a post - match onslaught by their triumphant adversaries , culminating in a triple chokeslam on Ezekiel Jackson by Kane , Big Show and Santino . When Cody Rhodes was kicked in the face by Trent Barreta , the jaded Superstar completely snapped , unleashing a bitter assault on his opponent that culminated with the Cross Rhodes for the win .

When Michelle McCool was hurled into the ropes by Beth Phoenix , her momentum knocked Layla off the apron . As a result , the English - born Diva was unable to tag in when Michelle came calling . Later , when Layla was trying to tag Michelle in , a sudden “ back issue ” kept the first - ever Divas Champion from relieving her partner - in - flawless , allowing Kelly Kelly to pick up the quick victory . As the dust cleared , the animosity between the members of Team Lay - Cool was noticeable . As Michael Cole and Jack Swagger were singing their praises from their nefarious actions at WrestleMania , WWE ’ s explosive new Superstar Sin Cara emerged , defying both gravity and logic with a jaw - dropping attack on The All - American American .
