October 2 , 2013 Main Event results The October 2 , 2013 Edition of Main Event is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE , it was taped at the Baton Rouge River Center in Baton Rouge , Louisiana on October 1 , 2013 . Summary . The bayou was filled to the brim with action on WWE Main Event as Antonio Cesaro proved he is pound - for - pound the strongest competitor in WWE . World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank contract winner Damien Sandow entered the Baton Rouge River Center immediately insulting the WWE Universe and expressing his disgust for Santino Marella ’ s regular antics . Enraged , Santino was ready for a fight and the WWE Universe was fully behind him . However , Sandow – constantly reminding everyone he is the self - proclaimed uncrowned World Heavyweight Champion – was relentless in his attacks . Santino ’ s greatest folly throughout the contest was taunting and performing the very antics his opponent referenced earlier . Each time Santino fired up the WWE Universe , Sandow attacked . As the Italian Superstar attempted his patented Cobra Strike , the self - proclaimed Intellectual Savior of the Masses escaped and managed to strip the Cobra cover from Santino ’ s arm and use it as a distraction to execute his signature maneuver for the win . The last time The Prime Time Players faced Erik Rowan and Luke Harper of The Wyatt Family on WWE Main Event , the usually effective and powerful duo were unable to muster a million - dollar offensive and were uncharacteristically dominated throughout . Attempting to take down Bray Wyatt ’ s associates once more as The Eater of Worlds watched in his rocking chair , The Prime Time Players again met their match . Though they mustered some momentum by trying to brawl with Harper and Rowan , Titus O ’ Neil and Darren Young were completely overpowered by The Wyatt Family paring . Following Rowan and Harper ’ s victory via a thunderous clothesline , Bray Wyatt once again added insult to injury by executing Sister Abigail ’ s Kiss . Former United States Champion Zack Ryder hoped to score an upset victory in Baton Rouge by battling Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel . Relying on his athleticism and support from the WWE Universe , Ryder managed to keep the third - generation Superstar off - balance early in the contest . With Paul Heyman clutching the Intercontinental Championship and offering words of encouragement for his “ guy , ” Axel managed to rebound and keep Ryder at bay . Unable to reassert his offense , Long Island Iced - Z was ultimately defeated when Axel managed to execute his patented neckbreaker . Brodus Clay and Tensai hoped to rely on their sheer size and strength advantage in their tag team battle with The Real Americans on WWE Main Event . However , what they didn ’ t expect was Antonio Cesaro to prove once more that he is undoubtedly one of the strongest Superstars in WWE . The contest was relatively back and forth , but two moments stood out in the match . Both instances added clout to the argument that Cesaro is the strongest Superstar in the locker room . First , he executed the Cesaro Swing on the 375 - pound Brodus Clay to the shock and awe of the WWE Universe . Later in the contest , he recovered from an onslaught by Tensai and managed to lift the 360 - pound competitor up to hit the Neutralizer for the victory . Cesaro ’ s actions on WWE Main Event certainly proved The Real Americans are a force to be reckoned with .
