The show opens up with Del Rio Fiesta. Alberto Del Rio got a small pop coming out, they'll probably dub that. Dolph Ziggler interrupts the party. The Big Show comes out as well, and then Sheamus. This sets up a tag match for later tonight, with Ziggler and Big Show vs. Del Rio and Sheamus.
U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro defeated Kofi Kingston in a non-title match.
Team Hell No and Randy Orton vs. Team Rhodes Scholars and Wade Barrett is up next. Orton won the match for his team after hitting Sandow with an RKO and pinning him. After the match, Kane hugged Orton and Daniel Bryan joined in.
The Great Khali defeated Tensai.
The Miz defeated Primo with a figure four leglock.
WWE Divas Champion Kaitlyn defeated Aksana. World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio and Sheamus defeated Dolph Ziggler and The Big Show

I'm sure Orton loved being part of that.

Orton: "I want to be a heel."
Vince: "I counter your proposal with a segment where you hug Kane!"
Orton: "..."

Funny story bout that the guy he 'beat up' on the road in that skit was Robbie E

Sheamus did a sequel to this segment:



and told the heels to "leave it out."

I hope Tensai didn't take out a massive mortgage upon his 2012 WWE signing as he got issued his offical geek card issued to him:

Within the last month or two apparently Tensai tried to talk his ex-partner Karl Anderson into signing with WWE and reforming their highly successful New Japan act.

Anderson is headlining the next New Japan iPPV. Anderson declined.

DEFTLEFTHAND

Should Tensai wait for release and the payoff or quit and return to Japan? A good guy like Matt Bloom deserves respect, if I were him though I'd see out the deal and hope that they cut soon. Remember if they release you they have to pay the remainder of your contract in a lump sum.

Decent show, the opening and tag matches were good from a sports entertainment pov.

Cesaro and Kofi ending was good, even if the match was a little short.

Miz still sucks though, the Americans will probably shout for him just because he is copying flair.

LOL at the dents on Ziggler's briefcase maybe WWE will do a storyline of him not cashing in before it expires

Stereomaniac

I actually hope that that is what they do with him. Have him fall flat on his face at every attempt.
