Commentators: Michael Cole, John Bradshaw Layfield
We open with a recap of the main event from Raw with Big Show costing Shield the titles.
Theme song.
Wyatt Family vs. The Miz/Kofi Kingston
Brie Bella vs. AJ Lee
CM Punk vs. Big E. Langston
Post match here are Heyman and company to congratulate Punk on his win over a marginally talented rookie. However Punk has to face a professional inside the Cell and he wants no part of that man. Punk says that makes Heyman an idiot rather than the best in the world. There are two words that Heyman needs to focus on.
We recap Big Show knocking out Maddox. Brad sold the heck out of that punch.
Real Americans vs. Usos
Colter is on commentary. Cesaro gets elbowed down by Jimmy to start as Colter rants about Los Matadores. Off to Swagger to run over Jimmy in the corner and Colter is blaming the government shutdown for the arrival of Los Matadores. Cesaro does a remarkable 27 rotation giant swing to Jimmy to one of the biggest reactions of the night.
Back to Swagger for some stomping and a double chickenwing. Colter wants to know what kind of people kidnap a little person and make them dress like a bull. Maybe they owe child support and have been passing bad checks. Cue Los Matadores so Torito can gore Colter a few times. Jey comes back with a NASTY looking superkick to set up the Superfly Splash on Swagger for the pin at 5:45.
Swagger gets beaten up post match.
