With the match officially underway , the WWE Universe was treated to another competitive match - up between WWE ' s best .

The lovely Divas battled back and forth and each showed off impressive displays of athleticism . As Kelly Kelly built a fair amount of momentum , Brie Bella tried to distract the blonde bombshell , perhaps attempting Twin Magic . Kelly knocked Brie off the apron , but was rolled up by Nikki .

Nearly a year removed from their epic clash at WrestleMania XXVII , John Cena battled The Miz on WWE Raw Supershow . Before the contest was underway , The Miz needed to get something off his chest .

In perhaps their most impressive WWE Tag Team Championship defense yet , Primo & Epico managed to defeat two formidable teams in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match . Early on in the contest , Kofi Kingston ' s fast - paced offense seemed to be too much for his opponents to handle . However , in a contest with so many talented Superstars and strong pairings , no one could maintain momentum for too long . Each tag team seemed poised to outdo the other on their way to the tag team titles . However , Primo & Epico ' s teamwork was what ultimately led them to victory leaving the WWE Universe with no doubt as to why they are the WWE Tag Team Champions . The celebration for Primo & Epico was short - lived as the entrance way exploded in a burst of fire and Kane made his return to Raw SuperShow . The Big Red Monster made his way to the ring and laid out every Superstar involved in the contest . Although Primo & Epico retained their titles , an enraged Kane spread his message of hate at their expense . One week after revealing that she used Zack Ryder , Eve addressed the WWE Universe and explained that she is " a woman in a man ' s world . " She explained that she has no problem using men to achieve her goals . She implored the WWE Universe not to blame her for her natural strengths , but to blame their weaknesses . After she left the ring , Kelly Kelly confronted Eve and asked her what has gotten into her . Eve responded by laughing in Kelly ' s face and walking away .

The World ' s Strongest Man didn ' t even have a chance to enter the ring before The World ' s Largest Athlete unleashed his fury . Mark Henry never had a chance to recover as he was run over by Big Show . However , Big Show turned his attention to Cody Rhodes who left ringside and retreated up the entrance ramp . This allowed Henry a chance to recover , but Sheamus tagged himself in and took down The World ' s Strongest Man with a powerful Brogue Kick for the win . The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels will make a special appearance on WWE Raw SuperShow next week ! What will he say about his best friend , Triple H , accepting The Undertaker ' s challenge for WrestleMania XXVIII ?

The Brahama Bull then turned his attention to his WrestleMania XXVIII opponent John Cena . The Rock had many choice words for John Cena and whenever he hurled an insult at his WrestleMania opponent , the Portland crowd would chant in unison . The Great One explained to John Cena that he was fighting for the people and that he lived to entertain the people . As The People ' s Champion continued , John Cena made his way to the ring to counter The Rock ' s insults and fire back his own .
