Rey Mysterio won the World Heavyweight Championship Fatal 4-Way Match
Uniondale, New York – Amidst the tumultuous fury of Fatal 4-Way, Rey Mysterio did what he does best. In the wake of Big Red madness, The Ultimate Underdog reigned supreme over World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger, CM Punk and Big Show to become the new World Champion.
In a match where any of the four elite Superstars could emerge as the champion by scoring a pinfall or submission over any of his three opponents, pure bedlam was destined to reign from the opening bell. In the culmination of the absolutely furious battle, all four war torn Superstars eventually laid on the canvas. As the WWE Universe sat glued to the edge of their seats, waiting to see who would get up first, a rage-filled Kane suddenly chose to strike. Of the four grapplers, The Big Red Monster chose to grab Punk, dragging him from the ring and attempting to place him in a coffin. Though Luke Gallows rescued his savior, the recovering Master of the 619 quickly capitalized on the confusion. Dialing up his signature maneuver on “The All-American American,” Mysterio reclaimed the coveted World Title.
As with the majority of his storied career, Mysterio had to overcome tremendous odds to capture of his second World Title – the first of which he won in an explosive Triple Threat Match at WrestleMania 22.
After The Undertaker – who originally qualified for Fatal 4-Way with a hard fought victory over The Master of the 619 – was found in a “vegetative state” by his brother Kane, Mysterio stepped up to heroically claim his vacant spot. Flying high in a SmackDown Battle Royal against the entire Friday night roster, Mysterio proved that no matter what the obstacle, he was determined to once again leap to the top of the mountain.
Along with his fellow Fatal 4-Way combatants, Mysterio was terrorized and attacked by Kane in the weeks leading up to the innovative new pay-per-view, as The Big Red Monster became obsessed with finding the identity of The Deadman’s unknown attacker. Their irate pursuer promised that at Fatal 4-Way, it would truly be a “fatal” night for the Superstar “guilty” of the brutal attack on The Phenom. Ironically, when Kane took Punk out of the equation during the match, he inadvertently helped to clear a path for Mysterio’s triumph.
Though Rey Mysterio has reclaimed ultimate glory at Fatal 4-Way, the greatest challenge may be to keep the title in his procession. With all of SmackDown setting their sights on the new World Champion, the biggest heart in WWE will need every bit of his desire to continue to defy the odds.

World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger, The S.E.S., Big Show and Rey Mysterio attacked Kane
After Luke Gallows emerged from the darkness dressed as The Undertaker to help CM Punk play a joke on the WWE Universe, an enraged Kane arrived to seek retribution. Before he could reach the ring, however, he was ambushed by The Straight Edge Society and World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger. Big Show and Rey Mysterio soon chased The Big Red Monster’s assailants out of the ring, only to hit Kane with an earth-shattering 619-chokeslam combination.
Rey Mysterio & Big Show def. World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger & CM Punk
In a tag team main event between the Fatal 4-Way participants, the athleticism of Rey Mysterio proved to be the difference. As Swagger was attempting to hit the Gutwrench Powerbomb on The Ultimate Underdog, Mysterio suddenly countered, crashing down upon “The All-American American” for the quick pin.
Although the victory gave Mysterio and Big Show momentum heading into Fatal 4-Way, the action did not end with the bell. Moments later, Kane reemerged, still determined to weed out the identity of The Undertaker’s unknown attackers. After he chokeslammed Swagger and Punk to the canvas, Kane knocked Big Show from the ring apron and blasted Mysterio with a tombstone. Finally, Kane proclaimed that this Sunday, “it will be a fatal night for the guilty party.”

Smackdown starts with CM Punk gloating about making Taker tap and his vegetative state. Suddenly the lights flicker and go dark and Undertaker appears in the ring! Punk cowers until he pokes Taker and reveals him as Luke Gallows. They laugh until Kane hits the scene, but Swagger blindsides him. Four-on-one as the masked SES member joins, until Mysterio and Big Show make the save. SES runs and they end up giving Kane a 619 and chokeslam respectively for last week.
Main event saw Big Show and Rey Mysterio beat CM Punk and Jack Swagger. Mysterio got double-teamed until he made the hot tag to Show. Chokeslam reversed into a DDT and Show tagged back out. Mysterio reversed a Pump-Handle Slam attempt by Swagger into a sort of Backstabber for the win.
Post-match Kane chokeslammed everyone but gave a Tombstone Piledriver to Rey. He got on the mic and promised Sunday would be “fatal.” Then he did Undertaker’s kneel and an open casket on the stage was surrounded by plumes of fire. Kane left the open casket and walked out to end the show.
