The following are spoilers for Smackdown which will air on Friday January 21, 2011.

Smackdown opens with the Nexus guys and Ezekiel Jackson coming out. Wade Barrett refers to the group as "The Core." Teddy Long comes out and says that unlike Raw, he isn't a GM hiding behind a computer and warns Barrett that he's not going to tolerate what went down last week. He says if Barrett doesn't like that, he can leave Smackdown.
 * Alberto Del Rio defeated R-Truth with the rolling armbreaker. During the match, we saw footage of Teddy Long being taken into an ambulance with the implication being that The Core/Nexus guys had beaten him up.


 * Beth Phoenix defeated Layla.


 * The Core tell Vickie Guerrero that they had nothing to do with what happened to Teddy Long. Vickie tells Wade Barrett that she's looking for someone to take out Edge to insure that Dolph Ziggler can be the new World champion.


 * Rey Mysterio defeated Cody Rhodes with the 619 in a good match.


 * Backstage, WWE champion The Miz and Alex Riley show up and stop Josh Mathews from getting an update on Teddy Long. Miz says that after what they did to Randy Orton, the whole world deserves to see him and he'll share what he did with the world.


 * In what I am guessing was a segment just for us here in Tulsa, Jim Ross got a huge reaction coming out and then interviewed Jack Swagger. Swagger ripped on his home State, claiming he moved to Texas. As you can imagine, we didn't like that.


 * Jack Swagger defeated Kofi Kingston in an arm wrestling match. Snore.


 * Drew McIntyre defeated Trent Baretta. He offers Baretta his hand as a sign of respect after, then kills him. Kelly Kelly comes out and is pissed. She helps Baretta to the back as Drew looks mad at himself.


 * WWE champion The Miz comes out and rips on Randy Orton and the fans. World champion Edge hits the ring and warns Miz that "he's done here." It ends up with Edge spearing Miz. So, it was basically a segment to preview Raw Monday but good mic work.


 * The Core comes out and Vickie Guerrero announces Edge vs. Justin Gabriel. The others are at ringside and Dolph is doing announcing. Edge and Gabriel have a decent match. In the end, Edge gets into it with The Core and that allows Ezekiel to lay Edge out and Gabriel gets the pin. The Core beat down Edge until Rey and Kofi make the save.
