Written By : James Coyle SKYSPORTS. Edge will face Kane for the World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series.
The Rated-R Superstar rose above his fellow contenders, Rey Mysterio and Alberto Del Rio, and won a Triple Threat Number one Contender’s Match on SmackDown to secure the right to face “The Devil’s Favourite Demon” in three weeks time.
After burying The Undertaker alive at WWE Bragging Rights, Kane and Paul Bearer kicked off SmackDown by informing fans that they would never see The Deadman again.
Despite involvement by The Nexus in last Sunday’s epic showdown, Kane also dismissed the idea that anyone but he was responsible for The Phenom’s demise.
However, during a moment of silence for The Phenom, Alberto Del Rio interrupted, blatantly knocking Paul Bearer’s mystical urn to the mat. Moments after a conflict ensued, in which Del Rio took down the World Heavyweight Champion, Rey Mysterio emerged.
Exciting
Although Del Rio evaded the 619, The Ultimate Underdog dialled his favourite manoeuvre up on “The Father of Destruction.” Kane recovered and sent Mysterio from the ring, only to be Speared by Edge.
Afterward, SmackDown GM Teddy Long announced a Triple Threat Number one Contender’s Match between Del Rio, Mysterio and Edge to determine who would face The Big Red Monster at Survivor Series for the World Title.
In an exciting main event, it was the nine-time World Champion who ultimately rose above the rest to ensure that he would go on to Survivor Series.
As Del Rio attempted to counter Mysterio’s 619, he hoisted The Ultimate Underdog up on his shoulders, and that led to The Ultimate Opportunist blasting Del Rio with the Spear for the victory.
