-Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston d. U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro(non-title) by DQ when Wade Barrett ran in from the broadcast table. "R-Truth" Ron Killings(who was also doing commentary for the match) made the save, leading to...
-Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston & "R-Truth" Ron Killings d. U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro & Wade Barrett; R-Truth blind-tagged into the match and Cesaro set up Kofi for the Neutralizer, but Truth came off the top rope with a sunset flip. Cesaro tried to block it but Kofi hit him with Trouble In Paradise and Truth completed the pinning combination for the three-count.
-In light of WWE Champion C.M. Punk's recent knee surgery, he is off the PPV...now Ryback & Tag Team Champions Hell No(Kane & Daniel Bryan) will face The Shield(Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, & Roman Reigns) in a TLC Match.
-Next week: Ryback vs. Alberto Del Rio.
TNA XPlosion
Commentators: Jeremy Borash & Todd Keneley.
Samoa Joe vs. Kid Kash for the T.V. Title: Joe dominates for quite a while, but Kash dropkicks the knee to halt his momentum. Kash stays on the leg until a striking exchange ends in Joe's favor...Kash fights out of a muscle buster and ranas Joe to the floor(going over the top rope himself). However, Joe is merely annoyed by Kash's efforts and counters an O'Connor Roll by pulling Kash down into the Kokita Clutch...the tapout is academic.
WWE NXT6
Commentators: Tony Dawson, S. William Regal, & Jim Ross(for the main event). Ring announcer: Byron Saxton.
U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro vs. Michael McGillicutty, non-title: This should be...interesting. MM has been a fan favorite in some recent outings and this appears to be no exception. He hits the Perfect Dropkick in the early going but gets dumped on the turnbuckles by the U.S. Champ. Regal notes that Cesaro's offense is focused on the midsection...perhaps to set up the Neutralizer. Fine back-and-forth matchup between these two...MM gets a few surprise near-falls, but Cesaro stops him with a thumb to the eye and then a pop-up European uppercut. Neutralizer hits and that's the ballgame.
Bo Dallas vs. Axl Keegan(w/o entrance): Keegan is making his NXT debut, but he's got a tough task ahead of him despite a slight size advantage. Bo appreciates the competition and rallies with a belly-to-belly suplex before finishing with the spear. Bo speaks to the people after the match...he's lost a few fights lately but he wants to face the best opponents. On that note, he issues an open challenge...hmm...
Yoshi Tatsu vs. Corey Graves: Yoshi lives! Unfortunately, Graves wants to make an impact and jumps Tatsu in the aisle before the opening bell. Yoshi fights back once the match officially starts, but Graves is quick to take out the leg. Corey stays on the injured limb for a few minutes...Yoshi rallies but the leg is giving him problems. The big roundhouse kick is blocked and Graves takes him down straight into the Fuller Leglock(now called the Thirteenth Step) for the submission.
Gavin Reid vs. Roman Reigns: Another debuting wrestler has an uphill battle ahead of him. Roman jaws with the fans as he wears Reid down with a CRAVATE~!...yeah, this looks like a squash to me. Reigns finishes at his leisure with the Moment Of Silence(Protobomb)...apparently he has that "it factor" I've heard so much about. Roman dumps Reid to the floor and calls Byron into the ring...only to insult him and shoo him out of the ring.
Tom Phillips interviews Tyson Kidd about his feature match tonight...but Kassius Ohno interrupts him. Ohno gloats about putting Richie Steamboat on the shelf but Kidd is not deterred...
Tyson Kidd vs. Leo Kruger: J.R. joins Regal at the broadcast table for this one...YAY WRESTLING~! Leo gains control after Kidd's cross-body attempt hits only ring ropes...but Kidd comes back with the proverbial educated feet. Kidd launches a springboard elbowdrop but Kruger raises the knees...Leo follows up with a big clothesline for a near-fall. Kruger goes to the top rope...not really his territory and we see why as Kidd pops up with an armdrag off the turnbuckles. Leo rolls out, but a plancha fakeout by Kidd leads to a running punt from the apron...springboard move is met by a raised boot but this time Kidd sees the counter coming and gets a hold of the foot. Sharpshooter...no, DUNGEON LOCK is applied and Leo taps! Kidd barely has time to celebrate before Ohno runs in to attack from behind...the numbers are against him and they hit a combination roaring elbow/Kruger's End(Shortcut). The heels stand tall...and Regal leaves the broadcast position to pull Tyson out of the ring, then help him to the backstage area. Interesting...
Next week: Seth Rollins vs. Jinder Mahal for the NXT Title.
