Layin da SmackDown! - SmackDown recap for March 15, 2013

Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes - Team Rhodes Scholars - start out tonight's show in Fort Wayne, Indiana by talking about how their Monday night plans with the Bella Twins...and their victory against The New Age Outlaws ("Road Dogg" Jesse James" and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn)...were ruined. They also complain about Sheamus and Randy Orton beating them later that night...so they're gonna ruin Sheamus and Orton's night this time around for good measure.

Sheamus and Randy Orton beat Team Rhodes Scholars (Damien Sandow and Cody Rhodes), then The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) show up on the TitanTron. They talk about how they own the ring and how they took down Big Show, then talk about how they don't have a match at WrestleMania. They challenge Sheamus, Orton and a partner of their choice to a 6-man tag team match at WrestleMania. Sheamus and Orton accept.

Big Show meets Randy Orton and Sheamus about being their partner at WrestleMania. He doesn't get the position, though...it goes to Ryback.

Layla gets the hot tag in to help herself - and Kaitlyn - to a win against Tamina Snuka and Aksana. Kaitlyn is not impressed.

The Funkadactyls (Cameron and Naomi) meet The Bella Twins (Brie and Nikki Bella). They get dissed by the Bellas, and it ends up being a brawl after the Bellas "introduce themselves." The refs have to stop the fight before it gets out of control.

Dolph Ziggler beats Kane thanks to AJ's interference. Daniel Bryan tries to distract Big E Langston, but to no avail. Kane grabs Dolph by the throat after the match only to be laid out by Big E.

Alberto Del Rio and Ricard Rodriguez make fun of Jack Swagger, Zeb Coulter...and Canada. Genius.

R-Truth and Chris Jericho laugh, but Jericho meets Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter. Jericho makes it clear that he's sick of their crap.

JBL is back from attempting to climb Mt. Death. He's safe and sound.

Fandango slams Natalya and The Great Khali's dancing, and wants them to pronounce his name correctly. Khali doesn't do well to Fandango's standards, and Fandango leaves again.

Josh Mathews interviews Sheamus and Randy Orton about their WrestleMania match, which Booker T has just made official. The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) attack both men from out of nowhere.

Ryback meets Booker T and Teddy Long. Booker asks Ryback to concentrate on his match against Mark Henry.

The match between Ryback and Mark Henry has just begun when The Shield (Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns) attack. Mark Henry walks away as The Shield destroy Ryback with a triple powerbomb. Mark Henry re-enters the ring and hits Ryback with the World's Strongest Slam...three times.

Jack Swagger beats Chris Jericho.
