Cena immediately plays to the fans, letting us know that this is SmackDown.

Ugh.

He talks about him beating Ziggler on Raw earlier this week. Cena says Ziggler will not be in a match tonight, but he will be in a fight with Sheamus.

Enter...Alberto Del Rio?

Del Rio says Cena shouldn't be worried about Ziggler, but he should be worried about stepping into his house. Cena says that he's wrong, as this broadcast belongs to the WWE Universe.

Again, ugh.

Del Rio says that this is his show and that Cena is a "gringo estupido." Del Rio reminds Cena that he is a former MITB and Royal Rumble winner. He adds that he is a two-time WWE Champion. Del Rio asks if Cena remembers the last time they met, as he beat him down. Del Rio tells Cena to leave his show and his ring right now. Cena says he remembers all of those things and he can't go. But, he remembers he has a match with Del Rio...right now.

Raw Rebound covers the effects of The Shield.

----------

Damien Sandow begs our indulgence. He reminds us who he is and that he has made futile attempts to enlighten the unwashed masses. As our intellectual savior, he promises that he will not abandon us. However, he isn't focusing on the masses. In his infinite wisdom, he will be sharing his knowledge with us on an individual basis.

"Silence!"

First question asks how many wheels on a tricycle, to which the fan answers correctly. The fan celebrates, but Sandow tells him that it is bad form. Second question asks how often the US holds a presidential election, to which the fan answers correctly again. Third questions asks the orbital velocity of Jupiter's moon, Europa. The fan has no idea. Sandow tells the ignoramus that it is 13.74 km/s.

Sandow tells the fan that he has embarrassed his family and the state of Louisiana. He tells the fan that the only thing stupider than his ignorance is his ridiculous haircut and he needs to leave the ring.

Sandow tells us that we are welcome.
