Jim Ross out to announce the show with Jerry Lawler and Michael Cole in his Cole Mine.
R-Truth is out for a promo. Not many people in London like him. At all. He's interrupted by John Morrison. This sets up R-Truth vs. John Morrison right now for Truth's spot in the main event at Extreme Rules.
The 2011 WWE Draft was announced during the break.
John Morrison b. R-Truth - he takes R-Truth's place in the Extreme Rules main event vs. The Miz and John Cena. Truth turns heel on Morrison after the match by attacking him from behind. The beatdown lasts forever, and Truth ends by bumming a cigarette from a fan and blowing it into Morrison's face... which surely is illegal in UK public places.
Dolph Ziggler b. Evan Bourne - Ziggler has cut his hair and dyed it dark brown. Ziggler wins a short match.
Michael Cole will be knighted later tonight.
A video looking back at Edge's career is shown.
The Miz is out for a promo. Miz vs. Cena vs. Morrison will be a Steel Cage Match at Extreme Rules. Sin Cara comes out to interrupt The Miz. This leads to John Cena and Sin Cara vs. The Miz and Alex Riley later tonight. Cena, as usual in London, booed heavily. Sin Cara is super over.
John Cena & Sin Cara b. The Miz & Alex Riley - Sin Cara still looking shaky with some of his spots, but the fans didn't care. Miz abandoned Riley, leaving him to Cara's finisher and the AA. Sin Cara pinned Riley with a springboard lionsault.
The new Kong promo airs.
Eve Torres b. Nikki Bella - your usual Divas match. This earns Eve a future title shot against Brie Bella.
Michael Cole was knighted by "The Queen". He is now Sir Michael Cole. Jack Swagger then forces Jim Ross to kiss Cole's feet. At Extreme Rules, the losing team must kiss the winning team's feet.
Sheamus b. Santino Marella in a non-title match. Total squash.
Randy Orton b. CM Punk in a really good match - The New Nexus were banned from ringside. Dueling chants throughout the match. Orton won with a rollup after about 15 minutes. After the match, Nexus beat down Orton, but there's tension between Punk and Ryan. Orton recovers and hits the RKO on Punk.
