January 15 , 2014 Main Event results The January 15 , 2014 Edition of Main Event is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE , it was taped at the DCU Center in Worcester , Massachusetts on January 14 , 2013 . Summary . What should have been the usual night of action - packed battles featuring WWE Superstars on WWE Main Event turned into the Ryback show . “ The Big Guy ” made sure the entire WWE Universe had its eyes on him as he marched to the ring during every match . Aside from Ryback ’ s strange attention - grabbing ploy , there was plenty of star - studded action on Wednesday night . Kofi Kingston took on former Intercontinental Champion Curtis Axel and Sin Cara clashed with Damien Sandow . 3MB had quite the tall task on their hands , as they not only faced The Prime Time Players , but the high - flying trio of Los Matadores and El Torito . The Wildcat is riding high after his huge victory over WWE World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton on Raw . A big win like that makes the target on Kingston ’ s back even bigger , though . Curtis Axel definitely wanted to put himself back in the title hunt with a win over Kingston on WWE Main Event . Though Axel was able to temporarily slow down Kingston with a few well - placed elbows , Kofi soon rebounded , leaping up , over and around his opponent to gain the upper hand . The former Intercontinental Champion soon focused his attack on Kingston ’ s back , hoping to keep The Wildcat from taking flight . Kingston used his agility to avoid being driven into the unforgiving apron , leaping back into the ring before darting out with a dive through the ropes . Kofi ’ s time on the attack did not last long , as Axel grounded him once again , landing a snap mare reminiscent of his father , WWE Hall of Famer Mr . Perfect . Wrenching Kingston ’ s arm , Axel got Kofi back to a standing position before drilling him into the mat with a back suplex . The third - generation Superstar looked to be in control of things as he pummeled Kingston . However , The Wildcat could not be tamed on this night . Kingston battled back , landing a twisting dropkick off the middle rope to stun Axel . Kofi unleashed a flurry of strikes on Axel before connecting with the Boom Drop . It looked as though Axel had the bout won after evading Trouble in Paradise at ringside . Kingston kicked the steel ring post instead , a sickening thud echoing through the arena . The third - generation Superstar tossed Kingston back into the ring , only for Kingston to use momentum to roll up Axel and claim victory . The Wildcat was ready to pounce as Ryback ’ s music hit after the bell and the monster stomped to the ring . Surprisingly , “ The Big Guy ” simply trudged a lap around ringside and back up the ramp , leaving everyone confused . Damien Sandow was looking to get back on track with a victory after coming up short in a thrilling bout against John Cena on Raw . That would be no easy task , as he took on the spectacular Sin Cara Wednesday night . The masked marvel twisted and twirled through the air in the opening moments of the match , befuddling The Intellectual Savior of the Masses and nearly pinning him . Despite Sandow ’ s best efforts to pummel Sin Cara , the highflier was still able to go airborne , leaping over the top rope and crashing into Sandow on the arena floor . Sandow was able to slow down the speedy luchador , grinding his boot into Sin Cara ’ s face in the corner . Sandow soon connected with the Elbow of Disdain , moving quickly to stay on the attack . Sin Cara wriggled free of his foe ’ s grasp , bouncing off the ropes with ease to land a flying headscissors and a handspring back elbow . Sin Cara looked to be on the verge of victory when , once again , Ryback ’ s music blared through the arena . “ The Big Guy ” marched around ringside , screaming at the WWE Universe . The match continued , but not for long , as Sandow capitalized on the distraction , pinning Sin Cara after “ You ’ re Welcome ” to pick up the win . With just less than two weeks left until the 2014 Royal Rumble , Superstars left and right are declaring their intention to take part in the annual over - the - top - rope battle , hoping to earn the opportunity to main event WrestleMania . Anyone opting to take part in the 2014 Royal Rumble Match got some bad news on Wednesday night . Bad News Barrett bellowed from atop his towering lectern that he is the latest Superstar to throw his name into the ring for a chance at glory . Though he went on to badmouth the WWE Universe , Barrett ’ s proselytizing was cut short , as Ryback once again stormed to ring to take the spotlight for himself . Brad Maddox dropped some serious truth bombs on 3MB before their match on WWE Main Event . The Raw GM told WWE ’ s resident rockers that the only reason they were facing The Prime Time Players was so that everyone backstage could enjoy a few minutes of peace and quiet . While everyone else enjoyed the sounds of silence , 3MB battled Titus O ’ Neil and Darren Young . While the odds were stacked against The PTP in this Handicap Tag Team Match , the WWE Universe was firmly behind them . 3MB used the odds to their advantage , using quick tags and sneak attacks to keep Young away from his partner . The wannabe rockers spent a little too much time jawing with the official , though . While Drew McIntyre was distracted , Young rolled the Scotsman up to give The Prime Time Players a victory . A stunned Heath Slater demanded Maddox restart the match . Maddox agreed to another match for 3MB , but against Los Matadores and the feisty El Torito ! The bumbling band didn ’ t fare much better against Los Matadores . The speedy bullfighters left Drew McIntyre dizzy with their lucha libre - style offense . McIntyre eventually caught Diego with a boot to the midsection to slow the matador down . Slater & Jinder Mahal triple - teamed Diego as the WWE Universe clamored for El Torito to enter the fray . They got their wish as the tiny bull took the tag and leapt into action , taking Mahal down with a top - rope hurricanrana . McIntyre tried to take out the speedy bull , but Torito leapt out of McIntyre ’ s grasp . Diego & Fernando took care of Slater & McIntyre , while Torito wowed the WWE Universe , hitting Mahal with a twisting plancha off the ropes . Torito scurried into the corner , leaving Mahal in the ring with Diego and Fernando . Los Matadores hit their trademark double team maneuver to win the bout . Unfortunately , Los Matadores and El Torito would not have much time to bask in their victory , as Ryback once again marched to ringside , ensuring the only thing the WWE Universe would be thinking after WWE Main Event was that Ryback ’ s actions were as inexplicable as his recent tweets .
