Jack Swagger
WWE taped this week’s Smackdown in Las Vegas and officially put the cap on WrestleMania week for their talent with a huge title change.
Here are complete spoilers for the show.
One night after threatening to cash in Money in the Bank on Raw, Jack Swagger actually followed through during Tuesday’s taping of WWE Smackdown in Las Vegas.
The All-American American defeated Chris Jericho to become the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion during the opening segment of the show.
Jericho opened Smackdown by cutting a promo about retaining the title at WrestleMania. Edge came out and said that he should get a rematch right now, but Jericho declines his invite. So, the two start to brawl.
Edge then spears Jericho at which point Swagger came out and cashed in MITB.
He nailed Edge with the briefcase and then hit Jericho with a Power Bomb to win the belt. (watch video of title change)
John Morrison and R-Truth def. Cryme Tyme in a short match. JTG and Shad get into an altercation after the match and it appears that their run is over.
Backstage, Jack Swagger is bragging to everybody about winning the title. He and Shelton Benjamin have a comical exchange.
Shad Gaspard does an interview about going solo. It’s his time now.
Drew McIntyre def. Matt Hardy with a DDT in another quick match.
Layla, Michelle McCool and Vickie Guerrero congratulate Jack Swagger on winning the title.
Dolph Ziggler def. Great Khali with a Sleeper Hold. After the match Khali told Ranjin Sing that he is going back to India, but will come back and win the World Championship.
CM Punk, Luke Gallows and Serena come out to insult Vegas and put over the Straight Edge Society. Punk says that he will shave his head if he cannot defeat Rey Mysterio and that he still wants Mr. 619 to join them.
Teddy Long announced that Punk would face Undertaker later in the show.
Tiffany and Beth Phoenix def. Simply Flawless.
Backstage, Chris Jericho is pleading with Long to reverse the title change. Long won’t and informs Jericho that if he wants a rematch it will have to be tonight.

Jack Swagger came to the ring to deliver his State of the Championship Address. Chris Jericho interrupted and threw a tantrum about wanting the belt back. Edge joined the party and also wanted a title shot. So, Teddy Long set up Jericho vs. Edge for a title shot next week on Smackdown. Segment ended with Edge taking out Jericho and Swagger taking out both of them.
