SmackDown Results: Consumed in Controversy

When interviewed as to why he called for the bell the second CM Punk locked in the Anaconda Vise on Undertaker at WWE Breaking Point, official Scott Armstrong seemed to imply that he made the questionable call because his job was on the line. He said that someone “much higher than him” had told him to do what he did.

WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon seemed to deny any involvement in the incident, demanding to know why SmackDown General Manager Theodore Long "double-crossed Undertaker". As a result, Long was forced to come before the WWE Universe and take responsibility. Long admitted the entire incident was “pre-planned” to prevent Undertaker from becoming champion. The apprehensive GM reminded the fans that Scott Armstrong and CM Punk were also involved, before inferring that his job was on the line as well. He apologized to all, asking for The Deadman’s forgiveness. Full results.
