WWE Live Event Results From Cedar Rapids (6/29): Dolph Ziggler Vs. Alberto Del Rio, More
Thanks to WrestlingINC.com reader Zach Takes for sending in these results from last night's WWE live event at the US Cellular Center in Cedar Rapids, IA:
It was WWE's first time back to Cedar Rapids in two years. They drew a very good size crowd as well especially considering you didn't have big name guys like Punk or Cena on the show.
* Sin Cara beat Cody Rhodes. Decent opener.
* WWE Divas title match: AJ beat Kaitlyn. Good divas match, these two seem to work well together.
* Great Khali beat Damien Sandow. Not much to this match
* Randy Orton beat Wade Barrett. Orton got a HUGE pop, this was a VERY good match, that was given a good amount of time.
* Antonio Cesaro (w/ Zeb Colter) defeated Justin Gabriel. Weakest match of the night, the crowd actually gave them a "this is boring chant."
* The Usos defeated Health Slater and Jinder Mahal.
* Alberto Del Rio defeated Dolph Ziggler with the help of Ricardo Rodgriguez in a fans choice No DQ match. Great match, crowd was really behind Ziggler the whole way through.
This was my first house show in two years their "new" set up, it is pretty nice makes the house shows feel bigger for sure. Overall a pretty fun night. Most of the outcomes were predictable, but that's to be expected for house shows.
