Zeb Colter is a real american as he gives us a history lesson. He will say names what do they have in common. He mentions Benedict Arnold, and other historical traitors along with Cesaro. Cesaro validated everything he said about sneaky immigrants. Colter says Heyman cannot get a woman if his life depended on it. He also throws a bunch of other insults to Heyman. Big Show is also a big problem just like Cesaro and Heyman. Big Show is the poster child for American laziness. He wants every Real American to rise and the crowd obliges with a We the People. Big Show comes out to a pop.

Show hits slow running clotheslines and a flap jack to Swagger. Show calls for the Chokeslam. Jack reverses that into a victory roll and Patriot Lock. Swagger has it locked on in the middle of the ring. Show can barely crawl because he’s in the middle of the ring trying to escape. Colter shouts encouragement. Big Show is fading quickly and looks like he nearly passed out. Big Show somehow gets out and gozzles Jack Swagger. The gozzle push and a knockout punch for Big Show. 1..2..3.

OFFICIAL RESULT: Big Show @ 7:00 via pin
MATCH THOUGHTS: This was match of the night simply for getting enough time. The match was pretty decent and Big Show sold everything really well. The only complaint would be Big Show staying in the Patriot Lock too long.

FINAL THOUGHTS: Decent little show tonight. It was nothing too extraordinary just an average episode of Main Event. Thanks to any who read the recap.
