SmackDown! says goodbye to Al Wilson

Al Wilson may have passed on, but he was hardly resting in peace at his own wake. Dawn Marie and Torrie Wilson couldn't put their differences aside long enough to say goodbye to Al. Once Torrie arrived at the funeral home to pay her last respects, she met eye to eye with Dawn Marie. Dawn, who seemed overly dramatic and insincere at times with her mourning, accused Torrie of putting Al in his grave. Dawn said that Al had died of a broken heart because his own daughter was so against his marriage to Dawn. After alleging that Torrie was faking her grief, Dawn smacked her stepdaughter across the face … hard! Torrie couldn't believe what had happened, but recouped and delivered a smack of her own! The crowd in the funeral parlor gasped in absolute disbelief as Dawn picked up a nearby lamp and smashed it over Torrie's head as she knelt by her father's coffin! These two bitter enemies will attempt to settle things once and for all in the first-ever Stepmother vs. Stepdaughter match this Sunday at the Royal Rumble.

The SmackDown! crowd was anything but dead as Rey Mysterio returned to live action for the first time since suffering a major knee injury at the hands of A-Train. Mysterio was revealed to be Brock Lesnar's tag team partner in a match against A-Train and the Big Show. Despite being at a huge size disadvantage, Mysterio sealed the win by hitting the 619 on A-Train and getting the pinfall!

SmackDown! was full of surprises from beginning to end. Nobody would have guessed that John Cena would turn against his tag team partner, B-2. But after Chavo Guerrero's Frog Splash got him the 1-2-3 on B-2 in a tag team match, the two rappers came to blows! Suddenly, an accomplice of Cena's jumped out of the crowd and aided Cena in pounding his ex-partner. Cena later revealed that he had a new dawg at his side. The scary-looking assailant goes by the name Redd Dog!

Chris Benoit stated during SmackDown! that he would ensure that Kurt Angle is not 100 percent when the two go head to head in a WWE Championship Match this Sunday at the Royal Rumble. But Angle looked like he was ready to go. All three members of Team Angle entered the ring against Benoit and Edge in a 3-on-2 match-up. Team Angle was awarded the win by disqualification after Benoit refused to release the team's captain from the Crippler Crossface when ordered. Did Benoit manage to damage Angle just enough to give him an advantage in the WWE Championship Match? Find out this Sunday when the Royal Rumble kicks off from Boston at 8 p.m. ET!
