Dark Match
1. The Uso Brothers defeated Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins. Not a bad starting match, writes Jon. The Usos did a good job of getting the crowd involved and got a decent pop when they came out, Hawkins and Reks got no response. Tony was bored by the match.
The lower bowl of the building has a good crowd, but the upper deck is tarped off.
WWE NXT Taping
Josh Mathews and William Regal came out for commentary.
Titus O’Neal came out to cut a promo on Alex Riley. Darren Young interrupted, saying he hated Titus but he respected him. Percy Watson came out to call out Titus and Young. When Titus challenged Percy, Alex Riley made his entrance and cut a short promo before Riley and Watson cleared the ring after a short brawl. A tag match was made for the main event. The heels went for cheap heat by bashing on Omaha.
Ray noted that there’s a big disco ball above the ring, meaning Brodus Clay is in the building.
1. Tyson Kidd beat Trent Barreta. Okay match, nothing to write home about with some botched spots.
Heath Slater came out to a lot of boos as they showed him winning last week over and over. Derrick Bateman came out and interrupted Slater and made fun of his losing streak. Bateman eventually drop kicked Slater out of the ring. It wasn’t that great of a promo.

A John Cena video aired followed by a WrestleMania video.
