Dark Match
1. Alberto Del Rio defeated Matt Hardy. Del Rio won via submission with an arm bar.
WWE NXT taping:
The show opened with the pros onstage, while the rookies were in the ring. The rookies were given 30 seconds to talk about anything other than why they shouldn’t be eliminated. Eli Cottonwood said he can take on Undertaker. Husky Harris spoke about beating MVP.
Kaval spoke about dreams and mentioned that he fought for decades as Low-Ki. Michel McGillicutty said not to worry about his topic because he won the immunity challenge last week. He recalled Miz saying he’s mediocre. Miz told him to get a contract and then come talk to him.
Alex Riley spoke about Starbucks. He also dissed Kaval and Percy Watson and said everything revolves around him. Percy spoke about having a good time, and said his motto is work hard, play harder.
1. Percy Watson (w/MVP) defeated Zack Ryder. Watson is wrestling without his glasses. Watson won with a float over DDT followed by the standing 180 splash.
John Morrison and Eli Cottonwood watched footage from the obstacle course last week. It was a funny segment. JoMo told Cottonwood he has a match with McGillicutty. Cottonwood said he’s not worried.
2. Mike McGillicutty (w/Kofi Kingston) defeated Eli Cottonwood (w/John Morrison). Ben Roethlisberger, er, McGillicutty won with a running, swinging neckbreaker sort of move. He is now 5-0, while Cottonwood is 2-2.
Husky Harris bumped into Kaval backstage and said they would have fun tonight while referring to him as “Small Fry.” Kaval agreed that they would have fun.
