Singles Match
Sin Cara vs Justin Gabriel

The first match of the evening has a quick start with multiple reversals. Sin Cara got the first maneuver in as he ducks a clothesline and springboards into a hurricanrana. Lots of back and forth, quick, acrobatic action in this bout. A hard fought match comes to an end as Sin Cara leads Justin Gabriel to the corner and attempts a top rope arm drag but instead, he eats a boot as Gabriel enziguiri's him off the top rope. Cara's down and out and Justin Gabriel heads up top. He soars through the air going for the 450! Sin Cara moved at the last second, but Gabriel lands on his feet! He turns around and Sin Cara plants him to the mat with a running C4. Pin! 1, 2, 3.

As Sin Cara celebrates his victory, the lights go out and the countdown appears again on the titantron. Static flashes and the screen goes back to normal.

Match 2[/u]
Tag Team Match
The Usos vs Otunga & McGillicutty

Match number two begins as Jey and Otunga start to lock up, but Otunga quickly kicks Uso in the gut and attacks him while he's down. Multiple reversals at the start, but the Usos managed to overcome and keep the upper hand most of the match. Just as it looks like they may pull off the win, McGillicutty distracts the ref and Otunga bashes Jimmy Uso in the face with brass knuckles. He adds insult to injury with his inverted spinebuster. As he goes for the pin, Jey comes in for the save but McGillicutty stopped him in his tracks with his patented neckbreaker and Otunga gets the 3 count.

After the match McGillicutty gets a mic and announces that they are the best tag team in the business and deserve to be the champions. He also said they'd destroy any team that crosses their path on the road to gold.

Match 3[/u]
Non-Title Singles Match
Christian vs Daniel Bryan

Though it was a non title match, both men gave this match their all. Christian brought his A-game with his aerial attacks but Bryan was not about to take a loss. As Christian set up for the Killswitch, Daniel Bryan dropkicked him in the back, rebounding Christian off the ropes and straight into a LeBell Lock, causing Christian to tap out.

Main Event[/u]
No. 1 Contenders Match for World Heavyweight Championship
William Regal vs Wade Barrett

The notorious countdown clock was back and it stayed on the titantron all match long. It wasn't a distraction for either Superstar though. It was obvious that both men really want that Number One Contender spot. Barrett & Regal were pulling out all the stops. Finisher after finisher but neither could get a 3 count. At one point the referee got knocked out and Barrett attacked Regal with the ring bell, busting him wide open. He ditched the ring bell and finished Regal off with Wasteland. Less than 10 seconds left on the countdown clock. He shakes the ref and gets him to count. 1, 2, - And all the lights in the arena go off.

Multiple fireworks go off on the stage, but no music. The arena goes dark again and... 'Break The Walls Down' hits and the crowd goes nuts. Chris Jericho is seen facing the stage with his arms out. He turns around and everyone in the crowd is on their feet. While Jericho is making his epic return entrance on the ramp, Wade Barrett stares on in disbelief. Regal sneaks and gets a steel chair and attacks Barrett from behind. Jericho runs down to the ring to aid Barrett. He slides in and ducks a chair shot...Codebreaker! He taunts Regal and the crowd is still on their feet for Y2J. He walks over to Wade Barrett and helps him up, making sure he's okay. Then a vicious Codebreaker to Barrett! Jericho looks around with a sinister look on his face, and grabs a microphone.

"I'm not back here to start another "Y2J" gimmick. I'm not here to act like some sort of cheesy, comedic saviour. I am not here to pander to all you sycophantic hypocrites. I am only here to begin where I left off when the current champion, Randall Keith Orton, viciously attacked me with a punt to the skull, sidelining me indefinately. Ironic, really, that last time I returned I was after Mr. Orton. The only difference this time is, I'm not here to crack jokes, to act like I'm here to entertain all of you. I'm here to claim what is rightfully mine, the World Heavyweight Championship. I'm sick of watching undeserving delinquents tarnishing the legacy of the prestigeous World Championship, so I have returned simply to end this pathetic little "pass-the-title" game that people seem to be playing. This being said, Randall, I'm not here for you just yet... you're more like the bigger picture. Right now, I am here to end the charade that you, Wade Barrett, are some sort of big shot superstar. But you're not, all you are is some cheap little British bareknuckle fighter who took for granted my teachings during NXT, then betrayed me with your little "Nexus" stunt. But all you are is some glorified rookie who doesn't even deserve to have graduated from developmental, yet. So, Wade, expect more of this over the next few weeks, because I will prove to you why I am still the best in the world at what... I... do."
