Intercontinental Championship
If Ziggler gets counted out or disqualified, he loses the title.
Dolph Ziggler (c) vs. Kofi Kingston

We go straight into the title matches with the WWE Intercontinental Championship being up for grabs first. Vickie Guerrero interrupts Tony Chimel, accompanied by her NXT rookie, to announce Dolph Ziggler herself. Remember that Ziggler will lose the Championship if he is counted out or DQ'ed.

The bell rings and we're ready to start. Both men lock up and Kofi locks in a side headlock taking Ziggler over. They chain wrestle for a little bit, trading holds before Kofi goes for the Trouble in Paradise, only for Ziggler to avoid it. Ziggler kicks away at Kofi's midsection and arm, he tries to send Kofi to the outside, but Kofi catches himself on the ropes and clotheslines Dolph over the top rope and out to the floor. Vickie's NXT rookie checks on Dolph, and Vickie isn't too happy, sending her to the back. Dolph is able to beat the count back into the ring but he falls victim to a quick roll up and a series of strikes and a big dropkick from Kingston.

Kofi tries to go to the top rope but he ends up hung up on the top turnbuckle. Ziggler hits a low dropkick and a neckbreaker on Kofi for a two count before locking in a mounted rear chin lock, putting all of his weight on Kingston's back. Kingston begins to fight up to his feet but Ziggler wears him down back to the mat.

Another attempt and Kingston is able to fight up to his feet and out of the hold, but he eats a big boot from Ziggler out of nowhere that's good for another near fall. Big elbow drop from Ziggler and another cover for another two count. Ziggler locks in a sleeper with a body scissors to wear down Kofi even more. Kingston fights up to his feet but Ziggler takes him right back down by his hair. Ziggler hits a neckbreaker on a seated Kofi for another near fall, and Kofi looks to turn things around with a series of strikes to Ziggler. Ziggler connects with the rocker dropper but it's still not enough to keep Kofi down.

Ziggler locks in another rear chin lock, continues to work the submissions on Kingston. Kofi starts to fight out of it, but Dolph puts him down with a series of elbows to the back of the neck, that's good for another, you guessed it, near fall. In lieu of a cover, Ziggler goes right back to work with a mounted rear chin lock. Kofi fights back up to his feet and fights his way out of the hold, peppering Ziggler with right hands. Both men trade blows and Kofi comes out on top, beating Ziggler in the corner until the ref has to pull him away. Ziggler uses the distraction to put Kofi in the corner, but it's short lived as Kofi comes up with a big kick to Ziggler's face and a cross body from the top for a near fall.

Kingston hits Ziggler with a series of strikes and even hits a weird version of a Thesz press, continuing to pound on Ziggler, before hitting the boom drop. Kofi gets the crowd pumped up and goes for the Trouble in Paradise, but Ziggler avoids it and almost locks in a sleeper. Kofi fights away and hits something that I honestly missed, but it's good for a near fall. Ziggler rolls to the outside, so Kofi jumps over the top rope and to the outside on top of Ziggler. Kofi picks up Ziggler and slams him back down to the mat. Kofi rolls Dolph back into the ring and goes for a cover but only gets two.

Kofi picks Ziggler up to his feet and looks to be going for a suplex, but Ziggler fights out of it and locks in a sleeper hold, wrenching away at Kofi's neck. Kofi tries to fight out of it, but Dolph doesn't let up, taking Kofi down to the mat. Kofi tries to get out of it one more time, getting up to his feet and breaking Ziggler's grip before locking in a sleeper of his own! Ziggler counters out of it quicky. Vickie goes to slap Kofi, but Ziggler tells her not to, because he's got it. Vickie and Ziggler argue and Kingston goes for the TIP only to miss and end up in the ropes. Ziggler hits the Zig Zag and covers Kofi for the three count and another impressive victory.

Winner and STILL WWE Intercontinental Champion: Dolph Ziggler

Backstage:

Apparently all of the men in the Six Pack Challenge will get a bit of promo time tonight. Edge is up first. He says the question that should be asked is how the five other men will beat Edge. Edge always shocks people in situations like these and he'll do it again tonight and walk out the new WWE Champion.

Big Show vs. CM Punk

Punk gets some promo time before the match. He says he loves Chicago, to a ton of pops from the crowd. He runs down a couple of the tourist attractions of Chicago before proclaiming his love for the city again. He says what he hates, is the inhabitants of Chicago, and here comes the heat. Punk points to the fans and says that they ruined his beautiful city. He calls them middle class lazy teamsters, corrupt politicians, horrible White Sox. He basically runs down everyone in the arena three times over, saying they make him sick. He says he's proud to be from Chicago, but he's not proud to live with the scum of the Earth in a city that should be burned to the ground a second time. And if that happens, Punk says he'll build a utopian Straight Edge city in its place. Punk then turns his attention to Big Show, saying this is his house, and he runs from no one. Punk says tonight he's David, and Big Show can be goliath, and Punk's slingshot is the power of almighty straight edge.

The bell rings, and Punk tries to score a couple of quick kicks, but it's all for naught, as Big Show simply head butts Punk to put him down. Punk is able to score a drop kick, but Show comes right back with a clubbing blow across the back. Show chokes Punk with his boot in the corner before pushing him against the ropes and chopping him across the chest, sending him out of the ring. Show is right out after him and sends him right back in the ring. On his way back into the ring Punk catches Show with a big boot that sends him back out to the floor. Punk stands on the apron and kicks away at Show before hitting a beautiful plancha out on top of Show.

Show is able to make it back into the ring at a 9 count but he walks right into a series of kicks from Punk. Show responds with a club like blow to Punk's stomach that stops him for a bit, but Punk goes to the middle rope and hits a flying forearm to Show. Punk goes for a series of covers but he just can't hold Show down. Punk continues to assualt, kicking at Punk's stomach and head, but catching big fists to the stomach every now and then. Punk goes to the apron, and he goes for a springboard flying forearm, but Show responds with a spear, knocking Punk out of mid-air. Show catches Punk with the KO punch and covers him, scoring the three count.

Winner: Big Show

Backstage:

Chris Jericho is up next, getting his promo time before the Six Pack match. Jericho says he's not lucky to be in this match. The GM put him in the match for a reason. He knows that Jericho beat The Rock and Steve Austin to become the first ever Unified Champion. And his victory in the scramble match last year, as well as winning the Elimination Chamber. He says tonight his MO is simple, eliminate everyone. He guarantees that he will walk out of the Six Pack Challenge the new WWE Champion, and that is because he's the best in the world at what he does.

- We get a video package highlighting the history between Daniel Bryan and The Miz that has led up to our next match.

United States Championship

The bell rings and Bryan chases Miz around the ring before Miz steps into the ropes to stop Bryan's advance. Miz kicks Bryan in the stomach before locking in a side head lock and taking Bryan over with a shoulder block. Bryan goes for a hip toss and Miz tries to reverse it, almost allowing Bryan to lock in the LaBell lock, but Miz is able to roll to the outside. When he comes back in, Bryan takes Miz right over with an arm drag, and a big leaping boot, that's good for a near fall. Bryan focuses on Miz's arm with an arm bar, but Miz turns it around, hanging Bryan's arm up on the top rope. Miz locks in a hammer lock and slams him into the turnbuckle. Another hammer lock from Miz, and this time we get a belly to back drop that's good for a near fall.

Miz tries to work over Bryan's arms, wrenching away and pulling his arms straight back and away from his body. Bryan is able to fight up to his feet and out of the hold, going for a backslide that's good for two. Miz comes right out of it with a kick to the shoulder and continues to work over Daniel's arms. Miz distracts the ref and it allows Alex Riley to wrench away on Bryan's arm as well. Miz hits a couple of elbow breakers before going back to work with a hammerlock. Bryan backflips out of it, but Miz responds with a big shoulderbreaker, that's good for a two count.

Bryan rolls out to the apron, and Miz uses some pretty inventive offense to continue the work on the shoulder. Miz brings Bryan back into the ring and goes for the pin, but only gets a two count.

Danielson nails Miz with a stiff kick to the side of the head but it's still not enough to keep the Miz down.

Bryan almost scores the win with a quick roll up, but Miz sends him to the outside. Bryan sidesteps Riley on the outside, sending him into the ring post, and he's able to kick out of a small package from the Miz. Miz punches and kicks away at Bryan, forcing the ref to pull him away. When Miz goes back to Bryan, Bryan locks in the LaBell lock! The Miz taps and WE HAVE A NEW US CHAMPION!

Winner and NEW WWE US CHAMPION: Daniel Bryan

Backstage:

John Cena is backstage for his obligatory promo time. He says all he hears about is percentages and numbers. Cena runs down a bunch of goofy statistics. He says no one can call this one. He's not going to says he's going to win, because no one knows who will win, but you can't count Cena out.

Title Unification Lumberjill Match for the WWE Women's Championship and the WWE Divas Championship

World Heavyweight Championship
No Holds Barred Match
Kane (c) vs. The Undertaker

We get a video package about the history of these two men, pulling from footage from even before Kane's debut at WWF Bad Blood. It's nice to see WWE acknowledging their own history, when they so often just completely ignore it.

This match is announced as being a No Holds Barred match. The trademark gong hits, the lights go out, and right on cue, the fans go nuts. The Undertaker makes his way out to the ring to lots of love from this Chicago crowd.

The World Heavyweight Champion, Kane, is the next man out to the ring. Taker charges Kane before he can even get to the ramp, and he and Kane trade blows at the top of the ramp.

Taker heads to the back finally as the crowd cheers him.

Backstage:

WWE Tag Team Championship
Turmoil Match

This is a match basically contested under guantlet rules. The Hart foundation is the first team out to the ring, accompanied by Natalya. The Hart Dynasty's first opponents will be the Uso's.

There will apparently be five teams in this match. Uso pounds away on Kidd right at the beginning, but Kidd comes right back with a roll up and a kick to the gut. It's pretty impossible to tell the Uso's apart as they're wearing identical trunks. Kidd tags out to Smith who comes in with a big shoulder block, and a clothesline to Uso.

He tosses the Uso on the outside down to the floor before hitting the World's strongest slam on the legal Uso.

McIntyre focuses on Bourne's shoulder, but Bourne is able to fight out of the hold. Rhodes tags in and goes right to work on Bourne, hitting his rope assisted knee drop.

McIntyre tags back in and gets Bourne into a fireman's carry before bringing him down across his knee, but it's only good enough for two.

Alberto Del Rio Promo:

For what seems to be no other reason than he's getting a huge push, we get an Alberto Del Rio promo. It's no different than any other, where he spends the whole time bragging on himself.

- We get a promo about the WWE Championship, it's just a filler piece, really, and only a little bit of it is about tonight's Six Pack Challenge match.

Backstage:

Sheamus finally gets his turn on the mic before tonight's WWE Championship match. Sheamus says he isn't concerned about tonight. He's WWE Champion because he wins, no matter the stipulation. Sheamus says he always leaves with the title, and he doesn't care what anyone has to say, because tonight's match suits him perfectly, and it's going to end like any other night. And tonight he'll be leaving with two things, a smile, and the title on his shoulder.

WWE Championship
Six-Pack Elimination Challenge Match
Sheamus (c) vs. Wade Barrett vs. Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. John Cena vs. Chris Jericho

Sheamus is the first man out to the ring to a generous amount of heat from the Chicago crowd. Cena is the next man out, and he gets a bit of a mixed reaction from the crowd, until he steps out on the ramp, and then it's mostly positive. Edge is the third man out to the ring, and I've just noticed that we're apparently going to get formal introductions for everyone in this match, as we're not getting them during the entrances. Anything to kill time for the PPV I guess. Jericho is out next, to another mixed reaction. The leader of the Nexus, Wade Barrett himself, is the fifth man out to the ring, with none of his flunkies following. Randy Orton is the final man out to the ring to a humongous pop from the crowd which builds before his music even hits.

We get formal ring introductions for everyone, and yes, it does take a good long while, and after what seems like 20 minutes of build (30 if you include all the six pack promos earlier in the show), we're finally ready to kick things off.

The bell rings, and it's mayhem as things break down and everyone is just brawling. Please bear with me as this one will be difficult to call.

Jericho and Orton are left as the only men in the ring and Jericho pounds on Orton. It doesn't last long though as Cena comes in and he and Jericho stare each other down before trading blows. Jericho pounds on Cena in the corner, but he eats a bulldog in return. Jericho gets an RKO from Orton and Orton pins Jericho for the three. WOW!

Chris Jericho has been eliminated

Jericho is slow to leave the ring, looking stunned on his way out. Everyone else even looks pretty stunned as Jericho slowly makes his way to the back.

When Jericho finally makes it to the back, things start up again. Barrett ends up in the middle with everyone staring him down. Everyone but Orton jumps Barrett, and even he eventually joins in before Barrett is clotheslined over the top rope by Sheamus and Edge. Orton and Cena toss Edge and Sheamus to the outside and we get an Orton/Cena tease, but Barrett breaks it up. Everyone is back in the ring and Barrett tries to order Sheamus and Edge around, but to no avail. Edge and Sheamus team up on Barrett instead, taking him down with a double shoulder block. Again we're left with Cena and Orton alone in the ring.
