1. Mark Henry defeated William Regal. Slow match with almost no wrestling.
2. The Miz over Evan Bourne to retain the United States Championship. The match of the night maybe. A lot of heat for Miz. Nice pop for Bourne. They tried the huracanrana from the second rope, but Bourne couldn't get high enough. Bad looking. Evan Bourne went for the Airbourne finisher, but Miz put his knees up and got the win. The ending was nasty looking.
3. Yoshi Tatsu beat Zack Ryder. The only thing I could think was how Ryder is technically a former number one contender and now he's jobbing to Yoshi.
4. Sheamus defeated Randy Orton in a lumberjack match. Good action. The lumberjacks were the Usos, Miz, Alex Riley, Regal, Hart Dynasty, Tatsu, Henry, and Bourne. So the heels kept beating on Orton and then the faces and heels fought every time they'd beat on Orton. When Sheamus was thrown out, the faces beat on him. The heels tried to attack from behind but Tatsu turned around and the heels backed off. Yes, Tatsu warded them off.
5. The Hart Dynasty defeated The Uso Brothers to retain the WWE Tag Titles. Good tag match. Is it just me or is the tag division getting better?
6. Melina defeated Alicia Fox to retain the Divas Championship. It was a decent women's match that went about 10 minutes.
7. John Cena, Daniel Bryan, and Chris Jericho defeated Justin Gabriel, David Otunga, and Heath Slater. What?! No Wade Barrett?! Oh well, good action and Daniel Bryan made the hot tag. Cena got a tag and Y2J turned on him and tried to do the Codebreaker, but he was thrown out by Cena, who went on to win the match.
After the match, all the Nexus members came out and beat down Cena and Bryan. The babyfaces eventually put them in their submission fininshers to send the crowd home happy. It was a good show.
