The show opens with a Royal Rumble video package featuring the World Heavyweight Championship where the challenger, Dolph Ziggler was unable to get the win against Edge after a mistake move by his girlfriend, Vickie Guerrero. The we go to Royal Rumble match and have seen the return of Christian trying to win the Rumble but was cut short after getting eliminated by Sheamus. Another Smackdown Superstar made his return at the Royal Rumble and it was The Undertaker. The Phenom made his surprise comeback inside the Rumble match but his focus is not to main event Wrestlemania as he gets his hands off his brother Kane, costing him to be eliminated as well. The two brothers continued to battle out of the ring until the officials tried to stop them.
Pyros then start to burst around the titantron as Friday Night Smackdown starts with Michael Cole, Joey Matthews and Matt Striker.
Joey Matthews: Welcome everybody to Smackdown, I am with Joey Matthews along with Matt Striker and one of the greatest announcer's in all time, Michael Cole.
Matt Striker: What's up with the introductions, Josh?
Michael Cole: Why? he's right! I am the best announcer ever, and as Joey said you are tuning on Friday Night Smackdown, the first Smackdown episode after the Royal Rumble. Last Sunday, we have seen Edge retained his World Heavyweight Championship and the biggest Royal Rumble match ever with the returning Undertaker who will also be here tonight as he faces his demented brother, Kane in a casket match.
While Cole is talking in the announcer's booth, an angry Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero appear in the stage and annoys the crowd with her screeching voice while they walked down the ramps and inside the ring.
Vickie Guerrero: EXCUSE ME!
crowd boos...
Vickie Guerrero: I said EXCUSE ME!
crowd boos...
Vickie Guerrero: You see last night, my man Dolph Ziggler is this very close in capturing the World Heavyweight Champion until your champion managed to outsmart Dolph here. I say the match is a fluke and we demand a rematch!
crowd boos...
Dolph Ziggler: You see! Your champion is nothing but a cheap opportunist! You should never credit him of being a 10 time champion because he got all of those by being a cheap opportunist!
The crowd are against Dolph and Vickie's challenge as "Just Close Your Eyes" plays and the returning Christian arrives the stage, receiving some cheers from the crowd. Captain Charisma then walks down the ramps and enters the ring to confront the couple.
Christian: What's with all this commotion? I just arrived inside my locker room and I here pig squeals coming from the arena.
crowd pops...
Christian: You see Dolph! Whatever you do, you already had your title opportunity last sunday at the Royal Rumble and unable to accomplish it.
Vickie Guerrero: You are wrong! My Dolph here got screwed by Edge last sunday and as Smackdown's Official Consultant, I am demanding a title rematch tonight against Edge.
Christian: So you think he got screwed? Well, can we see the footage from last sunday and see if Dolph here really got screwed by Edge at the Rumble.
A video footage was shown from last sunday and we see Vickie climbing up the apron to distract Edge with his squealing as Dolph charges in but failed to attack Edge with his own version of spear as the champ evades and instead he hits his girlfriend. Ziggler then turns around and got struck by Edge's spear for the win.
Christian: You see Ziggler! It's more like Vickie screwed you instead of Edge!
Dolph Ziggler: Shut up Christian! Why are you here in the first place? As far as I remember, the last time we saw you is that you are tapping from Alberto Del Rio's armbar! You are not on the same level with me, a contender for the top prize! You see Christian, you will never get a title shot like me and I know you are jealous about it! I can become a World Heavyweight Champion before you ever become one if it will ever happen!
crowd boos...
Christian: You may be right Ziggler! You became a contender for the World Heavyweight Champion while I am still here trying to climb up the top, trying to prove to this fans that I am Championship material...
crowd cheers...
Christian: But after tonight, when I get my hands of you Ziggler, I am going to get my chance to be in a title match.
Dolph Ziggler: Oh! I would love to face you tonight Christian but not tonight, because I have much bigger fish to catch and that is to challenge Edge to a rematch.
The crowd didn't liked Ziggler backing out from Christian's challenge and so does Smackdown General Manager, as he shows up in the stage.
Teddy Long: Wait just a sec playa! I know you are in a relationship with Smackdown's Consultant but that doesn't mean you two can run this show. Let me remind you that I am the one running Smackdown!
crowd cheers...
Teddy Long: Dolph Ziggler, you are going to get your another title shot but in one condition, you need to beat Christian because tonight, I am going to schedule you two in an Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match! So how 'bout you give me a hola hola!
Josh Matthews: What a big announcement from Teddy Long! Christian and Dolph Ziggler will go toe to toe tonight in an Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match!
Matt Striker: And looks like Vickie isn't happy about the announcement!
Michael Cole: She should be unhappy! His man is the perfection! He almost beat Edge last night and he should have his rematch! While Christian failed to win the Rumble!
We then go backstage and see Drew McIntyre preparing for his own Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match.
