You’re either Nexus or against us.
Love it or hate it, Nickelback is pretty awesome. Yes, I said it. We’re live in Kansas and here comes the Nexus. Wade Barrett is smirking as he tells us that the Nexus lives. There are a few issues from last night’s match. The two people that got involved in his match were Husky Harris and Michael McGillicutty. The second issue was the fact that the Nexus almost got Wade Barrett disqualified. Tonight is not the night for arguments, but it is a night of celebration. He introduces John Cena, who comes out wearing his own purple and yellow attire and no entrance music. Wade reminds him that he has to be true to his word and that being a part of Nexus will be the best thing to happen to him. Tarver takes the microphone and says nothing important, but gives him the Nexus armband.Cena takes off the CeNation armband and he puts on the Nexus one. Heath Slater takes the microphone and he gives John Cena an official statement. Cena takes some time before speaking in monotone. Wade says that since Mark Henry and Evan Bourne want a piece of the Nexus, so Cena’s first task is to choose a partner to face them in tag team action. Cena picks Michael Tarver and the match is now.
John Cena & Michael Tarver v. Mark Henry & Evan Bourne
Cena wants a handshake and Bourne acknowledges. This pisses Tarver off, so Cena tags in Tarver. After some much needed stalling, as if we needed it…Tarver and Bourne go at it and we get a commercial at the most opportune time.
Commercials.
We’re back and Mark Henry and Michael Tarver are trying to entertain this crowd. Tag to Bourne and Bourne gets a two count off a missile dropkick. Cena tries so hard to play by the rules. Evan scores with a kick and we get a tag to Henry. Cena mocks the tag request and Henry continues to decimate Tarver with a front facelock of all moves. He steps on Tarver and he tags in Bourne. Standing moonsault gets two and Cena is wanting a tag, I think. Tarver eats a kick in the corner, but he gives Bourne a belly to belly suplex. He rolls over for a tag, but Cena decides to sign autographs. Tag to Henry and Tarver turns around into a World’s Strongest Slam for the pinfall.
Winners: Mark Henry & Evan Bourne
Grade: D
John Cena has a statement of his own. While he is a member of Nexus, he intends on destroying the Nexus from within. He proceeds on using the microphone on Tarver. Tarver then eats a lariat and Cena does some work with the steel steps. Scoop slam on the steps and Michael Tarver is going to feel that in the morning. Another one hits the dust and Tarver gets tossed in the ring. Cena charges…chop block to Tarver and Cena locks in the STF. The RAW GMail chimes in and Michael Cole reads the stipulation to John Cena and he tells Cena that he must listen to Wade Barrett or Cena would be fired from the company. Cena is beside himself wondering what to do.

Michael Cole is trying to make us want to care about tonight’s show. We recap John Cena’s troubles from earlier tonight.
Michael Cole is in the ring explaining that the RAW GMail won’t be talking in autotune anymore, but will talk through the “Voice of the WWE”, Michael Cole.
We recap Edge’s frustrations with the RAW GMail.
Michael Cole tries to say that this was unacceptable and that Edge has to come out to apologize and once that apology comes, the fate of the WWE Championship will be revealed. Edge comes out to the ring, ignores Michael Cole’s handshake and he turns face to the crowd. Edge calls the GMail stupid, Michael Cole stupid, and how he would rather listen to J.R. on tape record than Michael Cole. The RAW GMail chimes in again and we’re going to determine the new #1 Contender by having a 20 man Battle Royal and Edge won’t be a part of the Battle Royal because the GMail traded him to SmackDown. The laughter on Cole’s face was creepy. Edge shoots on Michael Cole and Cole looks shocked. Michael Cole gets all pissy and demands some respect from Edge. Edge argues with Cole and is promptly interrupted by the Miz and Alex Riley. Edge calls the Miz an Edge wanna-be. The Miz says that they are not alike, to which Edge says that he was actually WWE Champion. We get some gay jokes to which Alex Riley gives the verbal fellatio on the Miz. Either the Miz will be fighting for the WWE Championship or leading Team RAW to beating SmackDown. Edge calls the Miz a jackass and he introduces the Miz into the podium, knocking the computer off the perch. Spear to Riley and the Miz hits the Skull Crushing Finale.
Best segment of the night.
Wade Barrett tells Cena by eliminating Michael Tarver was actually what he wanted. He thanks Cena for taking care of that. Later tonight, all the Nexus members will be a part of the Battle Royal and Cena’s instructions is to make sure Barrett wins at any cost.
