November 9 , 2012 Smackdown results The November 9 , 2012 Edition of Smackdown is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE ' s Smackdown brand , which took place on November 6 , 2012 at the Birmingham LG Arena in Birmingham , England . Summary . As WWE once again made history by bringing SuperSmackDown LIVE to the U . K . for the first time , Randy Orton squared off with Wade Barrett in a furious Falls Count Anywhere Match , Sheamus & William Regal looked to get gigantic retribution on Big Show & Wade Barrett and Kofi Kingston put his Intercontinental Title on the line against The Miz . A very angry Sheamus joined Michael Cole in the ring as the lights came up on an epic SuperSmackDown LIVE . Clearly not in the mood to be interviewed , he insisted that Cole leave the ring , as he paced back and forth like a caged animal . The rage of the first Irish - born WWE and World Heavyweight Champion was the direct result of an altercation with World Heavyweight Champion Big Show the previous night inside a Birmingham pub . In the volatile incident — first reported by WWE . com and captured by a mobile phone recording — The Celtic Warrior was sharing a pint with former Intercontinental Champion and King of the Ring winner William Regal , the same English grappler who has been a tremendous influence on Sheamus ’ and so many other Superstar ’ s careers . Though Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston defeated The Miz at Hell in a Cell , The Awesome One earned another opportunity at the title on the Nov . 2 edition of SmackDown — when he pinned the “ Wildcat ” to give himself and World Heavyweight Champion Big Show a huge tag team victory over Sheamus and the reigning titleholder . In the extremely fast - paced match that followed , Miz hurled Kofi ’ s leg into the steel ring steps , causing an excruciating injury that effectively grounded the highflier . This opened the door for the devious former champion to launch a vicious offensive and made it seem as if he would reclaim the illustrious championship gold . Despite his incredible pain , however , the resilient titleholder would roar back in heroic fashion . And after connecting with a fierce headbutt that sent his outspoken foe crashing from the ropes to the canvas , Kofi delivered a flying crossbody for the victory . But the action did not stop with the bell . When a deflated Miz offered his opponent a post - match handshake , Kofi exerted a more aggressive manor not seen before and hit Miz with dropkick , sending the defeated Superstar sailing out of the ring . For weeks now , the explosive combination of Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara have found themselves at odds with Darren Young & Titus O ’ Neil — in a physical rivalry that ’ s included a high - octane showdown at Hell in a Cell , individual matches on last Friday ’ s SmackDown and a Six - Man Tag Team Match on Monday ’ s Raw . Despite the awe - inspiring skill of the luchadores on SuperSmackDown LIVE , it would be The Prime Time Players that would emerge triumphant in the latest round . After Darren Young caused a distraction that effectively neutralized Mysterio ’ s 619 , O ’ Neil seized the moment , hitting the Clash of the Titus sit - down powerbomb on The Ultimate Underdog for the three - count . As the smoke cleared , The Prime Time Players commandeered Matt Striker ’ s microphone , humiliating the WWE announcer as they celebrated and characterized their victory as being worth “ millions of dollars ! ” One night after a controversial barroom attack by Big Show , the giant teamed with the ruthless Wade Barrett against a Sheamus / William Regal combination thirsty for retribution . Even before the bell even rang , Sheamus and the raging Regal threw the gantlet down , as the enraged duo battered their adversaries out of the ring in a hurry . Once the referee finally regained order , the action would take a drastic turn . Before long , the brutal back - and - forth brawl began to favor a two - on - one assault by Big Show and Barrett on the battle - tested Regal . The frustrated Celtic Warrior was forced to watch and wait for a tag , still displaying his wounds from his match with Big Show at Hell in a Cell . But Regal would fight back valiantly , heroically tagging Sheamus into the action . Moments later , the Birmingham members of the WWE Universe erupted , as The Celtic Warrior leveled Big Show with a shoulder block off the top rope , knocking the giant off his feet . Before Sheamus could capitalize , though , a distraction by the meddling Barrett would put a halt on Sheamus ’ Brogue Kick , allowing the recovering World ’ s Largest Athlete to blast his No . 1 contender with a gigantic spear . Show would then spread the wealth , blasting Regal with the KO Punch for the skull - shaking win . Last Friday , after Alberto Del Rio ’ s distraction caused Randy Orton to lose his match against Wade Barrett , The Viper engaged The Mexican Aristocrat in a fierce backstage brawl . ( WATCH ) Then on Raw , Orton returned the favor , using his entrance music to throw Del Rio off his game long enough for Kofi Kingston to defeat him — before he dished out an RKO . Now on SuperSmackDown LIVE , in a contest that not only encourages anarchy but also insists upon it , Randy Orton would battle Alberto Del Rio in Falls Count Anywhere Match . It was a setting where absolutely everything could be legally used as a weapon to end the fight anyplace . The brutal showdown that ensued would stretch outside the ring , into the U . K . crowd and all over the arena — incorporating everything from chairs , garbage cans , equipment trunks , the SmackDown announce table , the ramp , a table , the unforgiving steel ring post and everything else in sight .
