The following matches were taped in Colorado Springs, Colorado on Tuesday night prior to the WWE SmackDown television taping for this week’s edition of WWE Main Event, which will be available soon on Hulu Plus, and will air as scheduled in certain international markets.
Dark Match
– Luke Harper def. Heath Slater to kick off the evening. In the end, Harper picked up the win with his 360-clothesline finisher for the 1-2-3.
WWE Main Event
– Bad News Barrett def. Sin Cara in a non-title match. The crowd was said to be pretty into Barrett live, and was popping for a lot of the spots in this match. The finish saw Barrett pick up the pin fall after blasting Sin Cara with the Bull Hammer Elbow.
– Brie Bella def. Summer Rae in Divas action. Nikki Bella was in Brie’s corner for this one. The Bella Twins, despite being heels, were getting a lot of babyface reactions from the Colorado fans. Bella scored the pin in a pretty typical Divas match after nailing Summer with a face-buster.
– The Ascension def. a local enhancement tag-team. This was said to be pretty much the same match we’ve seen from The Ascension since the two debuted on the main roster a few weeks ago. The crowd boo’d The Ascension a lot during the match, but it was said to be pretty normal heel heat.
– Tyson Kidd & Cesaro def. The New Day in a tag-team match to close out the taping. Kofi Kingston and Big E. represented The New Day in this one, with Xavier Woods staying outside of the ring during this one. The finish saw Cesaro score the pin for his team after getting some help from Kidd.
