OPENING: Damien Sandow cuts a heel promo.
World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio vs Damien Sandow. ADR wins and later shares a long stare with Jack Swagger.
The Miz vs. Antonio Cesaro: WWE United States Title Match - 2-out-of-3 Falls match.
After Cesaro notched the first pinfall with a Neutralizer, Miz scored the second fall to even it up at one apiece. Cesaro and Miz would go on to have an exchange of counters, but Cesaro ended up scoring the final pin to retain his belt.
Fandango Promo and Matt Striker Exchange
Fandango got his own promo early on during the taping which should have led to his debut on SmackDown, but since Matt Striker couldn't pronounce his name correctly backstage, Fandango says he will debut when Striker can get it right and that didn't happen during this show.
Jim Ross interviewed Zeb Colter and Jack Swagger
During the interview, and Swagger did his best to bash the Oklahoma Sooners, which wasn't something the crowd was too pleased with.
Colter would go on to diss Del Rio's english-speaking abilities and ended up getting into an argument with Ross. After Swagger smacked JR's hat off, Del Rio came out to the ring to save the legendary broadcaster.
Del Rio would then go on to cut a promo against Swagger and the two took part in yet another stare-down that ended without incident.
Team Hell No vs. Darren Young and Titus O’Neill
Earlier in the show, Bryan and Kane got into an argument backstage, and that was a sign of things to come.
In their match with Young and O'Neill, the deck was stacked against Bryan and Kane. The Big Red Machine had to fight blindfolded while Bryan had his arm tied behind his back.
Kane and Bryan would end up getting into another argument during the match and that led to O'Neill rolling up Bryan for the victory. It didn't end there, however, as Bryan would go on to smack Kane across the face when it was all said and done.
Sin Cara defeats Heath Slater
Not exactly one of the bigger matches of the evening, Cara scored the victory by way of a roll-up. It seems that WWE is doing to 3MB what they did to The Corre: they are dropping the ball after great debuts.
Expect 3MB to start disappearing after Wrestlemania
Randy Orton vs. Big Show
Earlier in the evening, a match between Big Show and Orton was scheduled, but Sheamus promised to get Orton's back during the showdown.
The Shield would make its presence known early on by coming out and surrounding the ring, waiting for Sheamus. After beating down both Orton and Sheamus, Roman Reigns got knocked out by Big Show, and that forced Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins to run for their respective lives.
The Big Show then chokeslammed Orton, but Sheamus came in and landed a Brogue Kick to knock Big Show out of the ring. The match ended in a no contest.
