Big Show makes his way back, and the tag team champions enter another battle on the March 7 edition of WWE SmackDown. Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Mich. played host for a show filled with both familiar foes and freshmatchups. Daniel Bryan, AJ Lee, Christian and Big E all wrestled as Micheal Cole and John "Bradshaw"Layfield called the action.
So the show starts with Captain Charisma in the ring ready for the first match of the night against Dolph Ziggler with Del Rio on Commentary after his loss to Ziggler on RAW this past Monday.
Christian Def. Dolph Ziggler
So the match starts with Christian showing his heel side and then Ziggler does what he does best by showing off. Ziggler almost loses straight away after being thrown into the steel steps by Christian and is almost counted out. Christian dominates the first part of the match.
Ziggler goes rolls out the ring in front of Del Rio, Ziggler is thrown back into the ring and Christian dominates again. Commentary talk about Christians aggression lately. Christian goes top rope and then Ziggler catches him with a drop kick and Dolph gets back into the match.
Ziggler face plants Christian to the floor and then Del Rio distracts Ziggler by going on the mic, Christian takes advantage of this by hitting the kill switch and steals the victory. Del Rio does not attack he just walks away smiling.
Will there be a feud leading up to WrestleMania 30?
Rate: 7/10, interesting match
After the commercial we have a promo video from this weeks RAW in Chicago. Bryan and Triple H fall out and Stephanie calls the security. Later in the show Batista VS Bryan, authority come out and Orton gets involved match continues ends with Batista spearing, Bryan kicks Triple H in face, Batista hits Batista Bomb on Bryan then Triple H with the pedigree on Bryan.
After promo from RAW out comes Batista or as everyone calls him now 'Boo-tista'. He talks on the mic about last week in SmackDown against Ziggler. Then he talks about RAW this past Monday against Bryan. "Same outcome, I destroyed him, that simple!"
Daniel Bryan then comes out to confront Batista. Batista says to him your just a fan so go buy a ticket and watch him become the new WWE WHC. Bryan says Batista did beat him after Bryan had to deal with many other issues like the authority coming out, Randy Orton interfering and Kane. "I'll always be one step ahead of you" Batista quotes.
A lot of commenting on eachothers looks and clothes then Batista goes to attack Bryan but Bryan gets Batista out the ring then Kane starts to walk to the ring. Batista and Kane attack Bryan then the Big Show's music hits and the giant is back to help Bryan. Kane and Batista back out and Vickie comes out to arrange the match, Show & Bryan VS Kane & Batista.
After commercial it's WWERemind: RAW this past week - The USO's become new tag team champions by defeating the new age outlaws.
USO's Def. Ryback & Curtis Axel
So the second match of the night is the new tag team champions against jobbers Ryback and Axel. Seriously the USO's are tag team champions they should be facing better superstars.
Ryback & Axel just keeping Jimmy on the floor. Jay is tagged in and dominates Ryback. Axel is down outside the ring and the Ryback is defeated in the ring as the USO's pick up their second win as tag team champions.
Rate: 5/10, Very short
Backstage being interviewed is Kane as he says Bryan's luck will run out tonight, "I'm going to rip of that beard and shove it down his throat".
Eva Marie & Natalya Def. AJ Lee & Tamina Snuka
Commentary talk about total divas a little and also about AJ being the longest reigning Divas Champion. Eva Marie being dominated by Tamina & AJ.
Eva manages to get to Natalya and tag her in, Natalya dominates as she enters the ring. Tamina helping AJ not lose like usual and AJ goes for the black widow but Natalya locks in the sharp shooter and the divas champion Taos out.
Rate: 6/10, could of been a bit longer

The Shield Segment
The SHIELD's music hits as they enter the ring without Seth - this past Monday Dean went to tag in Seth but he jumped of the ropes and walked away as the shield were defeated by the Wyatt Family.
Dean and Roman not looking happy and they talk about the shield should have eachothers backs like they have in the past. They call Seth out and he basically tells them the shield are falling apart.
The shield talk and then Seth gets into the ring and say we call it now. "We either walk our seperate ways or stay together". Seth gives a brilliant speech and then dean pushes him over. Seth slaps Ambrose and Ambrose slaps him back to get the anger out of them and get back on the same page as eachother. The shield sort things out.
Pretty pointless but just to show that they are a strong and dominate team again.
Rate: 7/10, good but needed something more
Sheamus Def. Alberto Del Rio
So the match starts with both superstars looking very angry. Sheamus carrying his injury on his arm which is taped up. Sheamus dominates the first part of the match. Del Rio then slams the bad arm of Sheamus into the steel steps and then targets the bad arm.
After commercial we see Del Rio with a kick to the head of Sheamus on top rope and Del Rio goes for the first pin of the match but sheamus kicks out at two.
Sheamus with a massive clothesline which buys him some recovery time. Del Rio gets back up and Sheamus take him back down and is getting back into the match.
Ten beats from Sheamus but he doesn't finish them and the Del Rio with a powerful kick to Sheamus's head. Del Rio almost picks up the win. Del Rio calls for the cross arm breaker but this lead to Sheamus dominating again. Sheamus goes for his first ion but del rio kicks out at two. Del Rio locks in the cross arm breaker in the middle of the ring but Sheamus gets out if it and lifts Del Rio on his bad arm. Del Rio gets him again in the cross arm breaker but Sheamus catches the bottom rope with his feet.
Out of no where Sheamus hits the brogue kick on Del a Rio and gets the win.
Rate: 8/10, Very good performance mainly but Sheamus
Freaky speech from the Wyatt Family to John Cena, then backstage Batista talking about his match later in the night and saying that he will win the WWE WHC from Randy Orton.
So after commercial we see Alexander Rusev's ring announcer I guess? And she introduces Rusev and he comes out to give his intro speech and walk away. When will he fight?
Advertising the host of WrestleMania 30 , Hulk Hogan, who has a big announcement on RAW next week.
Raw Exclusive: Santino Morella & Emma Def. Fandango & Summer Rae - Emma and Santino keep tagging eachother in by high fiving when they finally realise. Emma and Santino were made for eachother. Emma makes Summer Rae tap out to her submission hold.
