WWE MAIN EVENT 11.14.12 (Episode 7)
-Michael Cole and the Miz welcome us to the show, which is from Cleveland, the house that Miz built. That’s what Miz said. They run down the big tag team title match, and then we see highlights of Miz teaming with Kane on Raw.

-Josh Matthews is with Kane and the ever-jealous Daniel Bryan. Kane says it is clear that HE is the tag team champions, but Bryan says Kane and Miz only won because he helped them win. Kane says he almost cost them the match, which insults Bryan. They argue and Kane walks off. Rhodes Scholars arrive and beat down Bryan in the interview area. Kane arrives as they run off, but the damage has been done to one half of the tag team champions.

-Miz puts himself over as the best tag team partner that you could have, and that Bryan got himself into trouble.

-We get a video history of Team Hell No.

-After the commercial break, we are told that Daniel Bryan has been medically cleared to perform. That was fast.

Tag Team Title Match: Team Hell No © (Kane and Daniel Bryan) vs. Rhodes Scholars (Cody Rhodes and Damien Sandow)
The champs rush the ring and clean house of the challengers right away. Once the referee gets order, the match begins as Kane and Cody start things off. Cody takes Kane to the corner, lays the boots to Kane, but Kane with a shoulder block to take down Cody. To the corner, rights by Kane and then the side headlock takedown. Cody to his feet, off the ropes and a shoulder block by Kane connects. Tag to Bryan, who then lays in the kicks to Cody. More kicks from Bryan in the corner, and then looks for the surfboard. He can’t do it due to his ribs being injured, so stomps on the legs and tags in Kane. Kane inadvertently hits Bryan when Cody ducks, and they argue. As Kane looks to help Bryan to his feet, Cody dropkicks him to the floor. Sandow then drops to the floor and slams Kane to the post…

~commercial time~

We are back from the commercial as Sandow is working over Kane with a headlock. Kane works to his feet, but Sandow slams him to the corner and tags in Cody. Double suplex to Kane, and Cody covers for 2. Boots by Cody, up top and the moonsault grazes a standing Kane. Both men to their feet, Cody with elbows, off the ropes and here is the backdrop where Cody lands on his shoulder badly, which HAD to suck. Cody tried to pop up really high and then tuck, but never fully got around and was going to one side, not straight over the top. Seriously had to suck. Tag to Bryan, lays the kicks into Cody. Clothesline by Bryan follows and covers for 2. Bryan misses the flying head butt, and Cody (who looks out of it) gets a tag to Sandow. Sandow works over Bryan on the floor as the trainers check, according to Michael Cole. Bryan rolls back in and Sandow lays the boots to him. Sandow with knee drops and then chokes out Bryan. Elbows on the apron follow, and then covers his face with the ring apron and goes crazy hockey fists on him. Sandow then drags him in and covers for 2…

~commercial time~

We are back from the commercial as Sandow is working over Bryan with a knee to the gut. We get a replay of Cody’s bad fall, as Sandow sets Bryan on the top rope. Bryan fights the superplex, tosses Sandow to the mat and then hits a missile dropkick. BOTH men are down and looking for a tag. Tag to Kane, who runs wild on Sandow with rights. Corner clothesline follows, and then the side slam and cover for 2. Kane with a right to Cody, which sends him to the floor. Kane up top, flying clothesline to Sandow. Chokeslam follows, tag to Bryan, flying head butt connects and that is all.

OFFICIAL RESULT: Team Hell No @ 18:00 via pin
RATING: **½ {The match never hit the next level, which was likely due to the injury to Cody and the fact that they were already working the “worked injury” with Bryan. Sandow did his best to work the rest of the match for his team, which I commend, unfortunately these things happen.}

-Striker interviews the champions, and when asked about working with Miz, Kane takes the mic and says Bryan’s answer should be YES! Miz leaves commentary and goes over to the champions and offers his hand. Bryan refuses but after Kane talks with him, Bryan offers a HUG to Miz! Miz then refuses and returns to commentary.

-We get a video package for the CM Punk vs. Ryback vs. John Cena match at Survivor Series.

-Cole and Miz breakdown the rest of the Survivor Series card.

-Dolph Ziggler is in the locker room. Cole asks about the results of the tag team title match, and how his teammates lost. Ziggler says he is a leader that will not abandon them, and his team’s chances of winning are…awesome. He then mocks Kofi and Miz, since they hate each other. The same as Team Hell No. he adds that Randy Orton hates everyone. He then says Miz will end up like Foley one day. Miz then says he and Foley are both former world champions and WM main eventers, while Ziggler doesn’t even main event regular PPVs. Ziggler runs down Miz and Cole, and says Miz cannot judge him because he is the best. Miz then says the briefcase doesn’t make Ziggler legit, while he can steal the show, he cannot steal the title. Miz then calls him Vickie’s puppet, and says he will lead Team Foley to victory. After some more back and forth, Miz challenges Ziggler to face off in the main event of WWE Main Event. Miz calls Ziggler’s team losers, and says all Ziggler is a BIG LOSER because he loses all the time, and has only ever won one important match, MITB. Miz says Ziggler will lost at the PPV, and promises to beat Ziggler next week. Ziggler agrees to the match.

Santino vs. David Otunga
JIP as Santino get san arm drag. Otunga shoots Santino off the ropes, power walking by Santino and another arm drag. Rights by Otunga to counter, to the corner and a shoulder block by Otunga follows. Knees to Santino, Otunga pulls the Jericho one-foot pinning combo for 2. More posing bullshit from Otunga, to the corner and another shoulder block to Santino. More knees follow and a cover for 2 by Otunga. He stands on the chest of Santino, then hits the elbow drop for 2. Otunga with ANOTHER shoulder block in the corner. Poses. Santino fails to kip up, avoids the shoulder block and does the split, hip toss and goes for the cobra. Cobra strike, game set match.

OFFICIAL RESULT: @ 3:00 via pin
RATING: NR

-Next week’s main event is the Miz vs. Dolph Ziggler.
