Crowd was very into the match from the beginning. Nice pop for Del Rio. After the usual back and forth Mysterio gets the pin via the 619.
Brodus Clay vs. Zack Ryder
Brodus comes out in a Boston Celtics jersey and immediately gives the cue to cut his music. He makes Justin Roberts refer to him as the "main event player." Zack Ryder steals one with a roll up in about two minutes. After the match Brodus, received a lot of boos.
Bellas & The Funkadactyls vs Kaitlyn, Alicia Fox, Rosa Kendes & Aksana
This was a fans choice match. A dance off or a 8 man tag match were the choices and the dance off easily won. The dance off off lasted all of two minutes before a brawl broke out between the divas. Brad Maddox came out to restore order and made an 8 man tag match. Brie pinned Alicia Fox via the X- Factor. Very pro Total Divas crowd
Curtis Axel vs. Sin Cara
Axel immediately took the mic and cut a small promo. Sin Cara came out to a moderate pop. The crowd chanted "boring" midway through the match but it was a good match. Sin Cara won with the Senton bomb. After the match, Axel got on the mic to say he wouldn't end 2013 like that and challenged anyone from the back. The Great Khali answered the call leading to...

Big Show vs Kane (w/ special referee Booker T)
Another great match with Big Show getting a good pop. The crowd was split throughout chanting "Let's go Big Show/Let's go Kane". Kane super chokeslams Big Show off the top rope for a 2 count.
