Cass came in to give Enzo a lift but he got taken out.  Enzo stayed there and was going for the belts when Anderson came in and stopped him.  He threw him off the ladder into a Cesaro uppercut.  The Club took out Cesaro and Anderson.  Matt hit a Twist of Fate and the fans popped.  As Anderson and Matt went for the belts, the fans chanted DELETE.  Matt did a Twist Of Fate from the top on Anderson.  Jeff did an insane Swanton off of the big ladder onto Anderson and wiped him out, and caught Sheamus too, as they were on the ladders the we perched over the apron and the post.  Crazy.  Matt went up and got the belts.  New Champions.  That was a hell of a lot of fun!  Awesome match.  Great use of the Hardys.  Just awesome.

Miz and Maryse vs. John Cena and Nikki Bella. Jerry Lawler is coming out as the guest announcer.  I hope he doesn't say puppies.  Al Roker is your guest ref.  He brought out the Miz and Maryse first.  They threw it to the foreign language commentators to say things I don't understand.  Al then brought out Nikki.  The fans booed when they thought it would be Cena.  Then when Cena came out, they really booed.  They think he sucks too.  John said that this is a long run and then hoofed it the mile and a half to the ring.  They hugged Cena's mom.

The fans were into Miz.  He was going for their applause early on.  He got Cena to chase him and then caught him coming in.  He was in control early on.  The fans were chanting Miz Is Awesome.  He was getting into it as he worked over Cena.  Then he missed the running knees into the corner and as Cena tried to tag Nikki, Maryse took her off the apron, leaving Cena in the ring.

Miz got the fans to chant YES and every time he kicked Cena in the chest they yelled YES.  The Miz got near Nikki and she slapped him and Miz went to the floor allowing Nikki to tag in.  She speared Maryse and she went to the floor.  While they were talking, Bella did a tope and hit Miz.  Nikki knocked out Maryse.  Cena took out Miz and they both did the FU and AAs.  They got the pins, making some people happy and others pissed.  

After the match Cena took the mic and told her this is what she wanted, a Mania moment.  He said he told her there would be a time she would be a little bit loopy and he could asked her something and she forget. He said he promised he would tell her when the time is right.  As she was going into the ER, he leaned in and asked if she could hear him.  He said he told her one day he would marry her, and she said yes.  Now he needs her to day yes one more time.  So he made her wait a year for this.  Say no Nikki!  He pulled out a ring and he asked her to marry her, she said yes.  Well, she mauled him anyway.  He put the ring on her finger.  And the people who usually boo him didn't.  So let me get this straight, he made her wait a year to get that ring and she isn't pissed?  Come on man!

As for the match, remember that, it was all about sacrificing Miz for a Engagement.  It was what it was.

HHH vs. Seth Rollins is up next.

Triple H came out first, riding a Harley with Steph dressed in leather on the back.  She looks like bad mommy, you know what I am saying.  They has a security detail with them of people on motorcycles.  Rollins came out in a yellow outfit carrying a torch.  He set the rampway "on fire" in a cool visual.  He looked fine walking the mile to the ring.  He sold the hurt leg a little but it seemed more due to the brace he is wearing.

The bell rang and Seth went right after H.  He even did a dropkick.  Then on the floor HHH did a Dragon Screw on the good leg.  Rollins came right back.  They brawled on the floor with Rollins coming off of the barricade with a splash.  He faced off with Steph and she looked mean.  

Triple H's plan early was to go after the leg.  It didn't work early and it led H to hit the floor and Rollins hit two topes as Steph screamed.  Rollins went for a Pedigree on an announce table but H got the leg and hit a DDT.  And now he is in control.  He worked over Rollins' leg on the floor and then took him back into the ring and continued to do the same.

HHH was in control for the next few minutes.  Rollins tried to go to the top rope but HHH chased.  Seth went for the Sunset Flip and sold that his knee blew out.  The announcers pointed out that it has happened before to his knee.  Then Rollins got up and went for a running powerbomb but the knee couldn't handle it.  But then, it could as Seth hit a Buckle Bomb.  He then went back to selling the knee as they both tried to come back.  The fans were behind him.  Rollins then whipped H over the ropes to the floor.  Steph yelled GET UP, like he hadn't thought of that.  Rollins went to the top and did a splash from the top to the floor on H, then sold the knee again.  Rollins then began bashing H's head into the ring posts.  Rollins went and grabbed a couple of chairs.  There's a hold harmless agreement in place so anything goes.  He grabbed a table too.  H went in the ring so Seth did a Frog Splash for a two.  H came back with a Spinebuster and then used the chair on Seth's leg.  Steph started orgasming.  H went to the top and Seth threw a chair in his face.  He then went up and did a Superplex into a Falcon Arrow, but only got two.  Seth went to the top and Steph grabbed his leg to know him down. H locked on a version of the Figure Four and locked it on. He tried to make Rollins submit.  Rollins fought back out and again H went to the knee.  

Rollins rolled out by H chased and hit him with a chair and then locked on the submission.  Seth threw a chair at H and then threw out a sledgehammer and H said OOOOO and went and got it.  Rollins went back in the ring and H chased with the hammer but Rollins fought him off.  The crowd started ti get animated and they went back and forth until H hit a very stiff clothesline.  

H went to use the hammer but Seth hit the Pele kick.  He got the hammer.  He got up.  Steph grabbed the hammer and that allowed HHH to hit the Pedigree for the two. H went up top and before he could Pedigree him he backdropped him.  Seth then hit a Phoenix Splash but only got a two.  They sold that knee was hurt.  Guys, no way you can do that move if the knee is hurt.  NONE!

They traded numerous Pedigree attempts and blocks until H went low.  But then H accidentally hit Steph on the apron and she went through a ringside table.  He kind of freaked and turned around and ate a kick from Seth and got the Pedigree.  Rollins wins.

It was a very good match.  The only thing I didn't like was that they oversold the knee.  A little was fine but Seth was doing insane moves after they were saying he would never walk again.  It was overkill.
