December 12 , 2012 Main Event results The December 12 , 2012 Edition of Main Event is a Professional wrestling television show of the WWE , it was taped at the Webster Bank Arena at Harbor Yard in Bridgeport , Connecticut on December 11 , 2012 . Summary . With only days remaining until WWE TLC : Tables , Ladders & Chairs , Ryback set out to destroy experienced two - time WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio and send a message to The Shield . Also , 3MB battled the high - octane duo of Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd in an impromptu 3 - on - 2 Handicap Match . Before the contest got underway , Ricardo Rodriguez made his way to the ring and rather than give his patented ring introduction for Alberto Del Rio , he offered a video tribute for his favorite WWE Superstar . As the celebratory video of The Mexican Aristocrat began running down a laundry list of his superior qualities , however , it was interrupted by three simple words that have taken WWE by storm : “ Feed Me More ! ” Ryback had enough of the Del Rio – praise and made his way to the ring . Of course , this only upset the Mexican Superstar , who entered Bridgeport , Conn . ’ s Webster Bank Arena ready to teach his opponent a lesson in respect . Most of the time , WWE Superstars display some trepidation before entering the squared circle with Ryback , but Del Rio was so disgusted with the audacity of his opponent that his arrogance and overconfidence outweighed any fears he might have of Ryback ’ s sheer power . When the opening bell sounded , Ryback faced a true test in his young and dominant career . Del Rio — a legend in Mexico — is a wise and shrewd tactician ; a full - on show of strength would be a fool ’ s folly against a Superstar of Del Rio ’ s caliber . Nonetheless , Ryback ’ s powerful abilities certainly played in his favor . The battle between the crafty veteran and powerful rookie was certainly a textbook example of agility vs . power . Del Rio ’ s offense was aggressive , knowing full well he had to keep his monstrous adversary on the defensive as often as possible . But as The Mexican Aristocrat discovered early in the bout , Ryback ’ s entire arsenal is based purely on strength . Displaying both his cunning and experience , Del Rio managed to pin Ryback ’ s arm between the steel steps and the ring post . With his opponent trapped , the two - time WWE Champion kicked the steps , hoping to soften up Ryback for a Cross Armbreaker . Throughout the contest , The Mexican Aristocrat focused on Ryback ’ s arm , using his agility and lucha libre abilities to counter many of Ryback ’ s maneuvers and to keep the pressure on his opponent ’ s limb . Though if there is one thing the WWE Universe has learned about Ryback over the course of 2012 , it ’ s that not only is his power impressive , but also his resilience is equally as extraordinary . The hungry Superstar continued to fight and overpowered his opponent as Del Rio set up for his patented Cross Armbreaker . Being slammed into the turnbuckle left The Mexican Superstar reeling , and with the WWE Universe chanting , Ryback hit the Meathook clothesline before executing Shell Shocked on Del Rio to pick up arguably his most impressive victory to date . Following the match , Matt Striker asked Ryback about teaming with Team Hell No in their battle against The Shield at WWE TLC . When asked if he could coexist with Daniel Bryan and Kane , Ryback responded , “ Yes ! Yes ! Yes ! ” Following the highly competitive featured contest between Alberto Del Rio and Ryback , 3MB took the opportunity to rock their way to the ring and address their issue with ION Television airing of the 12 / 12 / 12 Hurricane Sandy benefit concert . The group praised the event designed to benefit victims of the storm , but they were dumbfounded as to why they weren ’ t invited to play the show . In addition to their 12 / 12 / 12 snub , they also felt disrespected for not being invited to perform alongside Lady Gaga and Bruce Springsteen at WWE ’ s special Rolling Stones concert this Saturday on pay - per - view . Thankfully , as 3MB decided to “ delight ” Bridgeport , Conn . , with a preview of their new single , the high - flying duo of Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd entered the arena and challenged the rock band to a 3 - on - 2 Handicap Match . Outnumbered , Kidd & Gabriel hoped to rely on their uncanny agility to offset the three - man advantage enjoyed by Heath Slater , Jinder Mahal & Drew McIntyre . Although , their fast - paced styles were put to use in the contest , Kidd & Gabriel simply couldn ’ t overcome the numbers disadvantage as a cheap shot to Kidd by McIntyre out of the official ’ s line of sight allowed Heath Slater to secure the victory .
