Main Event Recap

Main Event opened last night with the WWE's "A-Lister" The Miz. He came out looking fashionable and decided to read a letter to the fans. It was similar to the infamous LeBron James essay, but saying he was leaving home instead of coming home. He also called himself Cleveland's favorite S-U-N, which was pretty comical. Of course, this would be interrupted by his opponent for the night, Sheamus. Both of these guys are strong picks for the Intercontinental Title Battle Royal at Battleground. While not much of note happened in this segment, it was entertaining.

The opening contest pitted former Funkadactyl Cameron, and her new theme music, against Emma! I was definitely happy to see Emma back on my TV screen for the first time since her unfortunate arrest. While Cameron is still not impressive in the ring, she is nailing her heel character and seems more comfortable in that role. Naomi was on commentary and did a fine job there, better than I expect. The same could be said about the match as it was better than I expected. Emma won, which was great and surprising and I'm all for more Emma wins.

Next up, we witnessed a tag team match between four of the guys in the Battleground Battle Royal. Rybaxel took on Kofi Kingston and Big E in what was a fun little match. Big E and Kofi were randomly thrown together here. It made a little sense on Raw because of the connection that they've both faced Cesaro. Anyway, Rybaxel continues to be one of my favorite things on the current product, but they unfortunately took the loss here. Kofi and Big E impressed me and I wouldn't mind if they joined a floundering tag team division.

The main event of Main Event was next, and Sheamus continues to be the MVP of this show. No, not the Montel Vontavious Porter, the Most Valuable Player. Every week he has a good match and he is usually booked to appear on Main Event. Much like their match on Raw, Miz and Sheamus treated the fans to a very good match, though I prefer this one. There was a funny spot where The Miz ducked for cover like a bomb was going off when Sheamus went for the Brogue Kick. The United States Champion was able to avenge his loss from Raw and is probably the favorite to win the Battle Royal and unify the belts.

Another really good episode of Main Event as Tuesdays have become a great time for me. Following Main Event, I would normally discuss WrestleMania Rewind and Countdown but there were no episodes last night. Instead we were treated to a Beyond the Ring featuring CM Punk. This is surprising since Punk was finally officially moved to the Alumni section of the WWE.com roster page. Normally, when someone is on their way out, they are completely ignored but Punk has been featured the last two weeks. It was a lot of fun to watch this documentary again as it's one of the best the WWE has put out.

That's all for now folks, another fun Tuesday night for me. I will dig more into CM Punk officially leaving later as I will present an special Top Ten later today, this one featuring the "Best in the World".
