WWE taped this week's edition of SmackDown at Freedom Hall in Louisville, Kentucky. Below are live spoilers:
* Batista opens SmackDown in the ring. He says that Vickie Guerrero tried to make things right last week, she's still not the General Manager so his match with Rey Mysterio won't happen. Batista calls out Teddy Long but instead Rey Mysterio comes out and says he's ready to go for tonight.
* Dolph Ziggler b. Kane

The "fan" is at first hesitant but finally agrees. Gallows pulls out an electronic razor and shaves his head.
