Match 3. Chris Jericho vs. Fandango
Jericho hit Fandango with a neck breaker. Fandango came back with a back suplex and northern lights suplex. Jericho locked in a few submissions to wear down Fandango. He then rolled up Fandango, but Fandango rolled him back over and got the win.

Match 4. Dolph Ziggler vs. Dean Ambrose
Ambrose tossed Ziggler into the corner and landed some knife-edge chops. Later, Ziggler locked in the sleeper hold and almost made Ambrose tap. Ambrose broke free and busted Ziggler open with right hands to the face. Ziggler hit the Fame Asser and landed a diving elbow drop to win.

Main Event. Randy Orton w/ CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan w/ John Cena
I can't believe these guys are still standing after last night. Punk tossed in a chair for Orton. Bryan threw Orton into the corner and landed a dropkick. Orton hit Bryan with snake eyes and a back breaker. Orton busted Bryan open with a DDT. Bryan kicked out of a pin and locked in the Yes Lock. Cena was tossed out of the match. Orton hit Bryan with an RKO on the chair to win.

After the match, Punk got in the ring and yelled at Orton.

Main Event. Corey Graves vs. Leo Kruger

SmackDown
Match 1. Sin Cara vs. Curtis Axel

Match 2. The Usos vs. Wyatt Family

Match 3. Drew McIntyre vs. Rey Mysterio
Rey countered Drew's Irish whip and kicked him in the gut. Drew came back with a huge powerslam. Rey caught Drew with a flying head scissors and busted him open. Drew tossed Rey into the ropes again and hit the Future Shock DDT to win.

Match 4. Damien Sandow vs. R-Truth
This is a matchup of complete opposites. Sandow landed two consecutive snap neck breakers. Sandow locked in a rear naked choke and then hit Terminus. Truth countered Sandow's attack in the corner and landed a rolling head scissors. He then hit the Lie Detector and won.

After the match, Axel and Rhodes came out and motioned that they are also in line for an IC tile shot.

Main Event. Alberto Del Rio vs. Sheamus
Sheamus hit a corner clothesline and lifted Del Rio up for the Celtic Cross. He hit a second finisher about three minutes later. Del Rio locked in the cross arm breaker and hit a tilt-a-whirl back breaker. Sheamus hit the Irish Curse back breaker and made Del Rio tap from a choke hold.

Recap: I like Raw a lot more than SmackDown now. The main event picture is awesome and there are new stars in the midcard. However, there is a nice youth movement on SmackDown.
