No In Memory graphic for Nelson Frazier Jr. Even TNA had one of those. Maybe on Sunday.
Opening sequence.
Daniel Bryan vs. Jack Swagger
Bryan is nursing a bad shoulder after Christian and Kane attacked him on Raw. Jack goes after the shoulder to start but Bryan takes him to the mat and grabs a headlock. Two running dropkicks in the corner send Swagger to the floor but he catches Bryan charging off the apron and drops him onto the barricade. The bad shoulder goes into the barricade and post as Jack is being much more aggressive tonight.
Daniel Bryan vs. Cesaro
Bryan fights up and goes to the middle rope but dives into a shoulder breaker for two. We hit the armbar as Cole thinks Bryan should just give up now and save himself for Sunday. Daniel is able to knock Cesaro to the floor and hit the FLYING GOAT but a Colter distraction lets Cesaro kick the bad shoulder. Jack gets caught with a chair and gets ejected for his efforts. Colter gets the same and we take a break.
Kane announces the result like he did on Monday. Cesaro hits the Neutralizer on Bryan to blow off some steam.

Wyatt Family vs. Cody Rhodes/Goldust/Rey Mysterio
A spinebuster puts Rowan down and the spinning cross body does the same. Rey comes in with a 619 to set up a Goldust powerslam for two. Harper catches Rey diving over the ropes and slams him into the barricade as Bray makes a blind tag. Goldust loads up Shattered Dreams to Erick but Wyatt runs him over, setting up Sister Abigail for the pin at 12:52.
We recap Sheamus accidentally kicking Christian last week.

Alexander Rusev will achieve greatness.
Road Dogg vs. Jimmy Uso
Dog gets taken into the corner to start but comes back with some kicks to the rib and one to the side of the head. We hit a quick chinlock on Jimmy but he comes back with a Samoan drop. A right hand misses and Dogg fires off his shaky punches but Jimmy escapes the pumphandle and superkicks Roadie for the pin at 3:03.

Sheamus vs. Christian
Sheamus poses but Christian shoves him off the top and to the floor to end the show.
