Dark Match

1. Kofi Kingston beat Tyler Breeze. Kofi won with Trouble in Paradise in about five minutes.

WWE Main Event TV Taping

1. Seth Rollins (w/Roman Reigns) defeated Goldust (w/Cody Rhodes) in roughly five minutes. Huge pops for Goldust and Cody. The Shield received an okay pop too. Back and forth action and the crowd was really into Goldust. Rollins won with a rollup after Goldust was distracted by Cody and Reigns brawling at ringside.

A John Cena video promo was shown and the crowd really booed him.

2. The Real Americans defeated The Prime Time Players. The Real Americans came out to not much heat. The Players were next they didn't get the reaction I expected. The Real Americans were in control to begin. A "We The People" chant started and then the crowd had a small pop for the hot tag to Titus O'Neil, but he got caught in Antonio's spin before Swagger put him away with the Patriot lock in about seven minutes.

3. Cameron and Naomi defeated Alicia Fox and Aksana. A typical Divas match with Cameron pinning Aksana in four minutes.

4. Damien Sandow defeated Dolph Ziggler. Dolph received a huge pop and Sandow got a lot of hate. In fact, it was the most heat of the night. Back and forth action from both guys with Sandow picking up the win in about five minutes. This concluded the Main Event taping.

Smackdown

The show opened with Michael Cole interviewing Triple H in the ring. They were seated in chairs for the sit-down interview. Triple H said six people were fired for setting up the production for Big Show. He noted that Show filed a lawsuit. He said Show is irrelevant and he remains fired and he can't comment further.

They spoke briefly of the Alberto Del Rio vs. John Cena match and moved onto Daniel Bryan and Shawn Michaels. Hunter said Michaels will do the right thing. Daniel Bryan's music hit. Hunter stayed in his seat. Bryan cut a promo saying he will prove Hunter wrong at Hell in a Cell. Bryan had a staredown and Triple H left to yes chants

1. The Uso Brothers defeated Luke Harper and Erick Rowan (w/Bray Wyatt). Miz was at ringside and kicked Wyatt. Rowan chased Miz, and the Uso's double teamed Harper and got the three count.

2. A.J. Lee (w/Tamina Snuka) beat Nikki Bella (w/Brie Bella). A.J. picked up the win with the Black Widow in three minutes.

3. Los Matadores defeated Heath Slater and Drew McIntyre. Zeb Colter and The Real Americans watched the match from the stage. A quick win for Los Matadores. They are kinda over with the crowd. Zeb cut promo saying the Americans will prevail at Hell in a Cell.

Backstage, The Wyatt Family had Miz chained up in a dark cage with "liar" painted on his stomach.

4. Ryback and Paul Heyman defeated C.M. Skunk in a No DQ handicap match. Yeah, that's right C.M. Skunk, a local jobber with skunk hair. The crowd really popped when Punk's music hit, but it was merely a squash match for Heyman and Ryback. Afterward, Heyman cut promo on Punk, saying he is Best in the World. He absolutely had the most heat of the night thus far.

Big E Langston told Vickie Guerrero that he wants in the main event match now that Miz is out. She agreed after he told her that she is nothing like Brad Maddox.

Alberto Del Rio delivered a promo on the stage. Pretty standard mic work from Del Rio.

5. The Great Khali (w/Natalya) fought Fandango (w/Summer Rae) to an apparent no-contest. Summer Rae slapped Natalya and they fought inside the ring, which led to the apparent no-contest. Khali chopped Fandango to end the segment.

6. Randy Orton, Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose vs. Daniel Bryan, Cody Rhodes, Goldust and Big E Langston is up next. Bryan's team gets the win after Langston interrupts a RKO, allowing Bryan to dropkick Orton for the win.

Kinky stuff with the Miz.

I thought Sandow was a face now?

Was just a one week thing as half the roster were overseas

zero heat for The Real Americans
I expect they'll either turn them face or have them beat down Sergeant Slaughter or someone like that.

Daniel Bryan coming out on top in Raw and SD this week does it mean he isn't winning in HIAC

HHH promo with Bryan interrupting. Haven't seen that 100 times.

Being honest, if Punk vs Heyman ends this week, I can't see Punk doing anything other than going after the WWE title and Orton. It would make no sense for him not to go back into that hunt. Just means Bryan gets pushed to third fiddle again (with Cena back too...).

I'm hoping it leads to something at Survivor Series. Hopefully if Punk does get involved that he refers to the "idiotic daughter" and the "doofus son-in-law" like before. Have the likes of Bryan, Punk and the Rhodes taking on "The Authority" head-on.

Bryan's attention will turn to Triple H, I'd imagine. Something to keep him busy and something to allow Triple H to show off his massive ego.

Wouldn't be surprised if Vince had something to do with The Big Show's antics lately, either.

Still pinning all my hopes on Matt Morgan finally attacking Punk on Sunday.

Edit: Los Matadores vs Real Americans have been added to the show.

Man event could be very good if it was given time.

Great to see Big E getting a boost.

Bryan v Triple H has to be happening at some stage.

Because Punk doesnt have a hard enough time getting good matches from his current opponents?

Main event was predictably a lot of fun.

Seeing Brie and Nikki standing side by side, they just look more like sisters than twin sisters now.

So happy Summer Rae is getting something to do.

Check out the 1.48 mark:

Khali so amazingly sweet

Amazing what surgery and the Cena diet plan can do!
