Theme song gets us going.
Alicia Fox/Aksana/Layla vs. Brie Bella/Natalya/Naomi
The Total Divas beat up AJ.
Los Matadores need to get here already.
Damien Sandow vs. Santino Marella
Time to put a comedy character over a guy whose potential has been wasted for months on end. Sandow runs from the Cobra to start before headbutting Santino down and dropping some knees. The legweep sets up the Wind-Up elbow for two and we hit the abdominal stretch. Santino hiptosses out and hits the saluting headbutt, only to have the Cobra broken up again. Sandow misses a charge into the corner and the Cobra gets the pin at 2:05. Just go with it people.
We recap the opening segment.
Alberto Del Rio vs. Ricardo Rodriguez
Del Rio kicks him down to start and hits a running knee into the ribs. Ricardo comes back with a quick dropkick for two but Alberto hits the low superkick to put him back down. Ricardo gets up two feet in the corner and hits a tornado DDT for two but gets crotched on the top. A reverse superplex gets the pin for Alberto at 2:23.
Post match Alberto puts on the armbreaker but RVD makes the save and hits a quick Five Star.
Dolph Ziggler vs. Dean Ambrose
Shield beats up Ziggler but here are the Usos for the save. Vickie confirms that Dolph gets a title shot and makes it six man tag after a break.
