Start of the Show
Justin Roberts is in the ring and he introduces the NEW World Heavyweight Champion Edge! Edge comes out looking crazy as usual as Jim Ross and Tazz welcome us to Smackdown. I hope Edge does the WRONG, WRONG, WRONG thing he did on Raw!

Edge soaks in the boos before saying that he knows each and every one of us wanted him to come out this week on Smackdown without the WWE Championship so we could taunt, jeer, and boo him just to rub it in. We wanted this because none of us have ever accomplished anything in life and we don’t want him to either. Edge says he’s a little different than us because he’s a winner and not a loser. When he sees an opportunity he takes it. He’s not afraid to take a chance so when he saw that Kofi Kingston couldn’t participate in the Elimination Chamber, he offered his services, and he shows us the fruits of that service – the World Heavyweight Championship!

Edge says he is the first Superstar to compete in not just one, but TWO Elimination Chambers in one night! Because of that he stands here before us for a historic eighth time as our World Heavyweight Champion! Edge holds the title over his head and his music hits.

Jeff Hardy’s music now hits and he comes out sporting some really interesting face paint! He gets a hell of a pop this Oregon crowd! Hardy says the Edge did it but before he can complete the sentence he is cut off by a “Hardy” chant! Hardy says Edge walked into No Way Out as a champion and he left a champion. Some people say that’s skill, that it takes guts. Some people even call him the “Ultimate Opportunist.” Maybe he is, maybe he isn’t but we can all agree that he gets special privileges just because he’s married to a PITIFUL excuse of a General Manager!!

Edge asks if Jeff Hardy wants to come out and whine and complain just like John Cena on Raw. He says it’s bad enough that he had to go to Raw to address Cena and now he has to come to Smackdown just to be threatened like Cena did. Hardy says that’s not the case – he’s just here to challenge Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship… TONIGHT!

The crowd is really buzzing now and they’re chanting “Hardy!” Edge asks him what gives him the right – is he taking those illegal substances again? Edge reminds him that he lost on Sunday, giving him no claim to a Championship match against him for the World Heavyweight Championship. Hardy then reminds him that the only reason he isn’t WWE Champion is because he pinned him in three minutes!

Edge asks if the people liked that and they cheer. He then asks them if they want to see him face Jeff Hardy and they really do! Edge says it isn’t going to happen no matter what Jeff Hardy does. There’s no way he’s going to compete against him here tonight! He asks if Jeff got it and Jeff says maybe he can try persuading his boss and wife because she does wear the pants in the family! Edge is her puppet – she pulls the strings and he dances! Let’s face it – if Edge wants to go to the bathroom, he has to raise his hand!

Edge is pissed now. He goes for a clothesline which Hardy ducks and hits the World Heavyweight Champion with a Twist of Fate!! Hardy leaves the ring with the fan’s approval as JR and Tazz talk about how Edge just got punked out.

Main Event Match - Edge vs. Jeff Hardy

This is a non-title match in case I didn’t say it enough.

Mike Chioda calls for the bell and Edge immediately charges Jeff Hardy and immediately gets taken down with a drop-toe-hold! Edge angrily grabs his mouth in pain as Hardy backs off, as if to say, “Gotcha!” Edge charges Hardy and gets taken down with an arm drag! Hardy taunts the crowd as Edge looks miffed. Edge now hits Hardy with some right hands before sending him into the turnbuckle but Hardy jumps over Edge and takes him down with an arm drag and locks in the arm bar! Hardy taunts the crowd and keeps the arm bar locked in tight. Hardy punches his arm and starts a “Hardy” chant for himself! Edge gets to his feet and pushes Hardy to the corner. Chioda separates them and Edge gets a cheap shot in on him!

Edge puts a big right hand to Hardy and looks to the crowd. Edge has a whip into the corner reversed on him but he tries to push over Hardy and instead gets his feet caught on Jeff’s shoulders! Hardy then slams him face first to the mat! Edge pulls himself up on the ropes and rushes Hardy only to be taken down with another arm drag! Hardy locks in a Fujiwara Arm Bar now! Edge eventually gets to his feet and gets a knee in Jeff’s midsection. He clubs him a few times and punches him down. Edge whips Hardy into the ropes but Hardy holds on to the ropes! Edge charges and Hardy back body-drops him over the top rope but Edge lands on his feet on the apron! Hardy kicks his legs out and baseball slides him off the apron!

Hardy goes to the outside and bounces Edge’s head off the barricade and puts Edge back in the ring! Hardy comes in through the second rope and Edge kicks him in the face! Hardy is hung up on the second rope and Edge hits a twisting neckbreaker on him! JR wonders if there is any way Hardy can recover as we go to break!

-Commercial Break-

We come back to see Edge elbow Hardy in the back of the neck! Edge then illegally chokes Hardy on the middle rope before going into the ropes and hitting a cross-body across Hardy’s back, putting the pressure on that neck! Edge covers Jeff Hardy for a count of two and a half! Edge is frustrated by locks on a neck vice. Edge then locks on a Cobra Clutch with a grapevine around the legs. Hardy gets to his feet and elbows out. He goes for the ropes but Edge pulls him down by the hair! Chioda admonishes him because that’s illegal.

Edge taunts the crowd and takes his time before picking Hardy up. He then hits a nice twisting neckbreaker for a two and a half count! Edge is really frustrated now. He sizes Hardy up and waits for the Spear! Edge thinks twice and hits a knee in Hardy’s spine before going back to the chin lock – which is really a sleeper hold. Hardy gets to his feet again and elbows out! Hardy goes into the ropes, ducks a clothesline, goes back into the ropes, and dives but Edge ducks and Hardy flies out of the ring! Crash and burn! That was cool!

Chioda is counting Hardy out and Edge is going to let him. Hardy gets in at nine and Edge stomps him upon reentry! Edge hits an elbow and covers for two and a half! I haven’t seen Edge do an elbow-drop… ever! Edge goes to the top rope and Hardy punches him off to the outside! Hardy then hits a plancha over the top rope! Hardy puts Edge back in the ring and shoulders him before going for a sunset flip and pins him for a two and a half count!! They then both go for a clothesline and both go down!!

Both men are being counted out now. They both get up at seven! Hardy approaches Edge who sweeps his legs and pins him with both feet on the ropes but Chioda catches him! Edge and Chioda argue and Hardy rolls Edge up for a two and a half count! Edge punches Hardy and goes to bounce his head off the turnbuckle but Hardy blocks it and bounces Edge’s head off instead! Hardy then hits Whisper in the Wind!! He then covers for a two and a half count!!

Hardy goes into the ropes, ducks a clothesline, and clotheslines Edge! Hardy goes back into the ropes and hits a twisting clothesline! Hardy hits an Inverted Atomic and then sends both of his legs into Edge’s “midsection” but really it’s his crotch! Hardy then dropkicks him in the face and covers for a two and a half count!!

Hardy gets the crowd into it! He has a whip reversed on him and Edge lays him out with a big boot! So much for that! Hardy is on the apron and Edge goes to pick him up but Hardy pulls his neck down on the top rope! Hardy then slingshots over the top rope with a legdrop! Hardy covers and gets two and a half with Edge gets a foot on the rope! Hardy continues to get the crowd into it and goes for the Twist of Fate but Edge counters into the Edge-O-Matic! Edge covers for a two and a half count!!

Edge now sets Hardy up for a Spear. Hardy slowly gets up and turns. Edge goes for the Spear but Hardy gets a small package like he did at No Way Out but this time only gets two and a half!! Hardy then immediately hits him with the Twist of Fate and goes to the top rope!! Jeff Hardy hits the Swanton Bomb but before he can cover he is hit with the Twist of Fate by his evil brother Matt!!

Winner by Disqualification: Jeff Hardy

Matt Hardy grabs the microphone and says it doesn’t seem like Jeff can get rid of the black cloud over his head but he’s going to give him an opportunity to turn his luck around. Matt proposes next week it be he and Jeff – one on one!! Matt Hardy then leaves the ring.

Jeff Hardy slowly gets up and gets taken down by Edge with a Spear! Edge raises his World Heavyweight Championship over his head as Smackdown ends.

Jeff Hardy Returns to Smackdown!

WWE Smackdown
February 13, 2009
Fresno, CA
Report by: Mike Tedesco of WrestleView.com

Jeff Hardy’s music hits and he gets a great pop from the crowd in Fresno, California! His pyro hits and he miraculously isn’t blown up! JR says Matt Hardy’s betrayal is of biblical proportions and I honestly don’t want to hear anymore biblical references after Hunter Golden on Wrestling News Live!

Jeff Hardy says it’s been a really weird time for him lately. He feels broken and left alone. He feels like doing bad things to bad people but something isn’t right. Matt Hardy is his brother. They made it to WWE together. They won and lost championships together. A big brother is someone you’re supposed to be able to look up to – he’s someone who’s supposed to have your back. Evidently with Matt that isn’t the case. He isn’t sure if it’s jealously but whatever it is it’s messed up. The Royal Rumble used to remind him of good times. He and Matt would watch it every year as kids. However now all it reminds him of is betrayal, a chair shot to the head, and a broken dream. He says to Matt no matter what is going on inside his head he should know better than anyone how Jeff rolls. He’s not the type of person to live in the past – he moves on. He’s moving on to this Sunday and the Elimination Chamber where he will become the WWE Champion for the second time whether Matt Hardy likes it or not! They did the dark music and inserted pictures of the brothers together during this promo much like Matt’s promo a few weeks earlier. Still it was very effective.

Hardy, Edge, Triple H, Big Show, Kozlov & Undertaker Inside the Elimination Chamber at No Way Out 2009

At No Way Out, six of WWE’s most elite Superstars will wage war inside one of the most brutal contests ever conceived – the Elimination Chamber Match.

Undertaker, Triple H, Big Show, Vladimir Kozlov and Jeff Hardy will have one goal in mind when they step inside the two miles of chain – Edge’s WWE Championship. But achieving victory inside the unforgiving steel structure will be no easy task.

As the Road to WrestleMania XXV forges onward, each Superstar took a unique path to qualify for the six-man fray at No Way Out.

On the Jan. 30 edition of SmackDown, Triple H defeated The Great Khali & Vladimir Kozlov in a Triple Threat Elimination Chamber Qualifying Match. And on the same night, Big Show defeated Festus, and Undertaker defeated Mark Henry to qualify.

The final two spots were filled on the Feb. 6 edition of SmackDown, when Vladimir Kozlov was the last man standing in a 15-man Battle Royal. And, SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero announced former WWE Champion Jeff Hardy would get the chance for a rematch against Edge after his heartbreaking Royal Rumble loss as a result of his brother’s betrayal.
