Smackdown March 7th 2008 Nassau Coliseum, Uniondale, New York Hosted By Joey Style & Jerry lawler
The show opens with General Manager Mick Foley making his way to the ring
Mick Foley I like to welcome you to my show Smackdown which starts its new life right here in Uniondale, New York. I have got many talented wrestlers on my roster including Batista, CM Punk, Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, Edge, The Big Show and of course Triple H. The first bit of buisness I have to do his decide how to crown a new WWE World Champion, and after a lot of thought I have decided on an idea that my old friend came up with six years ago
Triple H's music start as he makes his way to the ring with a smirk on his face
Triple H September the second 2002 was the date Mikk, that was the date that was the date that Eric Bischoff crowned me the WWE World Champion, so after hearing what you had to say Mikk I am honoured to accept the World Championship once more.
Mikk Your wrong Hunter, thats not the idea I had in mind, suprisingly Bischoff came up with another idea in the same year, he came up with The Elimination Chamber. And tonight we will have a series of qualifiers to decide who will partake in the Elimination Chamber at Wrestlemania 24 and dont worry Game you will be in a qualifier and your opponent tonight will be, Jeff Hardy.
Mikk leave the ring as Triple H looks angrily at him.
Elimination Chamber Qualifier Edge vs Kane
A brutal match end when Kane goes for the chokeslam and Edge hits him with a low blow and then a spear for the pinfall victory
Winner Edge
Rey Mysterio in Mick Foleys office
Rey Mick, im upset that you didnt consider me one of the twelve superstars for the Elimination Chamber qualifiers
MiCk Listen Rey you have just had two World Title shots on PPV before the draft and you lost both of them, you have to start again, if you start winning matches again I may consider you for a future title shot.
Chavo Guerrero bursts into the office
Chavo Mick I was the last ever ECW Champion, and you dont even give me a chance to be the World Champion?
MiCkHOW DARE YOU BURST INTO MY OFFICE LIKE THAT CHAVO, do you really want a shot at gold?
Chavo nods
MickWhat about you Rey???
Rey also nods
MickOk then right here next week we will have a four corners match for the WWE World Tag Team Championship, in one corner we will have Drew McIntyre & Dave Taylor, another corner it will be Paul London & Brian Kendrick, another corner it will be Juventud Guerrera and Super Crazy and in the final corner we will have the team of Rey Mysterio & Chavo Guerrero
Elimination Chamber Qualifier The Big Show vs Finlay

Winner The Big Show Elimination Chamber Qualifier Johnny Nitro w/Melina vs Rob Van Dam

Winner Rob Van Dam
Rule Britania blairs over the loudspeakers as William Regal, Paul Burchill, Drewe McIntyre, Dave Taylor, DH Smith and Katie Lea make their way to the ring.
Regal Disgusting, that is the one word I would use to describe Mick Foleys decidion not to include any British wrestlers in the qualification process for the Elimination Chamber, but we will not be detoured. Next week on Smackdown we will start our domination of the brand when Drew McIntyre and Dave Taylor become Tag Team Champions.
Burchill Disgusting William? Yes it is, but that word doesnt even come close to what the WWE wanted me and Katie to do
KatieThe WWE actually wanted us to pretend we were brother and sister, then claim that we were having a relationship, infact we arent brother and sister and we certainly arent in a relationship, but we are joined in force to stop the conspiracy against British wrestlers.
Regal You see Foley we wont stop we hold all the gold on the Smackdown brand.

The finish came when Batista hit a spinebuster on Kahli for the pinfall in a short match
