WWE Main Event 01/02

Miz and Cole inform us we will hear from CM Punk's doctors to see if he will be cleared to wrestle Ryback Monday on RAW. They also hype the main event which is billed as a big match. I said last week I thought Khali would go over so Cesaro could assent to greater heights.

Cesaro comes out with more hype and video packages. Khali is so going over, this is the biggest platform the US Title has ever been featured since its return. This is made to look like a big deal and I know Khali is going over.

Antonio Cesaro vs The Great Khali - United States Championship
I can't believe it but I was completely wrong. Cesaro and Khali have a pretty good match revolving around Cesaro cutting Khali down to size by destroying his legs. Also Cesaro has to stay away from the mammouth chops Khali throws as when he is in position for one he has no way to counter them. Cesaro gets Khali up in the neutralizer and it is awesome. I find it odd (and Cole even mentioned it) that an Indian, Canadian, and an Irish midget would chant USA USA. I guess it may be one of those McMahon ironic twist type of things he seemingly loves to book. Impressive win for the Swiss native.

Cesaro and Miz have a verbal confrontation where Miz defends America.

Replay shows I shouldn't have skipped RAW as Wade Barrett won the IC Title from Kifi Kingston.

The WWE physician says CM Punk is 100% and Punk can wrestle Monday against Ryback.

Wade Barrett JTTS Gauntlet Match
Yoshi Tatsu
One of the hardest elbows you will see in WWE...that was it.

JTG
JTG puts up more of a fight, Bull Hammer elbow for the win.

Justin Gabriel
Barrett gets a tougher test here having to deal with the strikes and air tactics of Gabriel. This match put over how close Gabriel is to breaking through. I think he will break in the tag ranks but apparently my instincts aren't the best tonight. So far the gauntlet is putting over the Bull Hammer as a death blow to be feared.

Kofi Kingston
Wade said he would challenge anyone and the face pulls the wool over the heels eyes. Barrett is so shocked he get nothing in and is dominated by Kofi who hits him with all of his moves. Trouble in Paradise ends it and Kofi has the upper hand going into the Smackdown rematch.

Main Event is a great wrestling show, maybe the best WWE runs on a weekly basis. It is easy to watch being only and hour and does not feel like overload as RAW can easily do.
