WWE SmackDown, August 9, 2013: Five talking points

5. Christian reigns supreme

Christian showed us why he is the No.1 contender after another brilliant match with the champion himself. Del Rio and Christian looked solid inside the ring as they gave us a great match. The surprising factor was, however, Christian’s victory. Del Rio’s chances of holding the title past SummerSlam looks very bleak, and we can surely expect a new champion at the event. Ricardo did not make any appearance, which was a small let-down, but he will surely have a role to play in the title match at SummerSlam.
