Big Show came to the ring, took the mic, and declared he wants the championship. Randy Orton interrupted to loud cheers. Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez came out. All three want the match against Seamus for the title. Orton RKO'd Del Rio and then all three ended up leaving the ring.

1. Antonio Cesaro defeated Santino Marella to retain the U.S. Championship.

2. Beth Phoenix defeated Natalya. Beth received huge cheers in her hometown.

Eve came out and announced that Beth Phoenix has been indefinitely suspended per an investigation into the Kaitlyn situation from Night of Champions. However, Booker T immediately reversed the suspension. Eve blamed Teddy Long and made Booker wonder whether he can trust Long.

3. Wade Barrett pinned Zack Ryder. Barrett won by pinfall.

The second installment of Miz TV took place. Sheamus came out immediately. A few minutes later, Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler came out. They had a word battle over Sheamus's title. A fight ensued and Sheamus cleared the ring.

4. Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow defeated The Uso Brothers.

5. Ryback defeated Tensai. Huge response for Ryback, who picked up Tensai over his head and slammed him down for the win. Wow.

6. Big Show defeated Randy Orton. Alberto Del Rio came out. He beat up Orton backstage. Orton was hurt from the attack. Orton whacked Alberto and headed to the stage. Show ended up chokeslamming and pinning Orton


Genuinely excited to see Ryback vs Tensai :P

I read a detailed spoilers report and the Rhodes Scholars Vs The Usos was the first match in a 8 team tag tournament to determine who will Face Team Hell No at Hell In A Cell.

It's great to see tournaments being used again and giving the tag team division some even more exposure!

On a positive note the Sheamus/Del Rio program has ended, on a negative note a Sheamus/Big Show and an Orton/Del Rio have now started. Something tells me, Ziggler will cash in at Hell in a Cell.

As much as i like wwe putting emphasis on the tag division , but when they put 2 tag teams together like Rey Cara and Cody Sandow and then teams like Usos/PrimoEpico get jobbed out which is a pity . Will be a tough call between Kofi Truth vs PTP although can see PTP winning

Mr.Saturn

I doubt Kofi/Truth'll be getting it, considering the fact that if they were planned for the shot, I imagine they would've been given their automatic rematch.

Good to see a tournament being used again,and not just a one night ''gold rush'' type thing.

gnfnrhead

As if it was in doubt, Tensai's push is well and truely dead.

starviewadams

He hadn't a hope once they saddled him with that gimmick in fairness.

Yeah its a pity he was saddled with that gimmick and the commentators saying he used to be in the wwf/e and went to the orient(japan not leyton orient). I'm a fan of him and really enjoyed his full on matches with Sheamus.
The only way it'd be worse for him is if they bring back Velocity and Funaki so we can reignite that feud. I LOVED his i'm a Velocity prison promo my brothers and I marked out to it big time.

do wwe not understand people don't want to see the big show?

the groutch

So is Beth leaving or not?

Also assuming that Tensai would be a bit too bit for the Shellshocked.

Despite what girls have said to me in the past, size matters. Big Show's size makes it look like he's harder to beat, which means if a face beats him when he's heel, it makes the face look good and strong, and if a heel beats him when he's a face, it makes it look like the heel got lucky.

Talent, staleness and personality mean f*ck all in wrestling when you're that size.

GTR63

I can already see him taking a brouge kick and spitting enough to fill a washing basin.

paddyismaddy

sandow and rhodes deserve a singles push

A Primal Nut

I'll have to tune in to watch Cesaro and Santino for the 467th time. Cesaro has barely fought anyone else since he debuted.

Nattie tweeted this hyping the match tonight:



Lasted 4 minutes.

How grim is that?

GTR63

When they showed that Punk-Ryback clip again I was just reminded of the pic where Blackman replaced Ryback, wish wwe did the same.

Mr.Nice Guy

Was I the only one very distracted by the amount of times Sheamus said 'honestly' or 'let's be honest' in that segment. :pac:

Sounds like a cheap Cente Forward

CastorTroy

Think it was the liveliest divas match I haven't fast forwarded through in a long time. Was half expecting a Beth wardrobe malfunction. And a finisher in a divas match that's kicked out of?

I saw the tag team tournament and guessed it would be Rhodes Scholars versus Rey Cara for the number one contendership. RS will win and may lead to a Rey/Cara feud?

I think WWE know people are fed up of ADR fighting Sheamus but decided to troll us by having him attack Randy and threatening another match. Though it could end up being a fatal 4 way, I suppose

sd this week wasn't a patch on last weeks "bryan and kane" show

TechnoFreek

Ryback throwing Tensai across his shoulders to finish the match was almost unbelievable!

Tensai ain't small.

Easy Wade you'll get your chance!

I don't understand why people are getting so in a twist over Ryback being in the main event so soon, he's only being used as a stop gap until Cena is 100% again, which is anywhere from only 2-6 weeks away depending on what reports you believe.

Once Cena is back Ryback will prob drop back down to the I-C level and people will fast forget he was parading around as a Main Eventer for a couple of weeks.

I can see Albert getting future endeavoured soon. He started off with some hype, which quickly died - Now he's gone back to being a mid-card jobber.

Stereomaniac

He was really over in Japan. I don't see why he was never given some sort of a chance in WWE this time around. I mean, he was alright at Money In The Bank I thought. It's confusing.

From his current gimmick down through his A-train, Prince Albert and Albert days the WWE fans just never really took to him. His in ring work is fine but he's not great on the mic and just lacks that top tier factor imho.
