Dolph Ziggler, John Cena and Triple H backstage

Ziggler and Cena discussed the odds mounting against them, and Cena said there would be no hard feelings if Ziggler decided to jump ship.

Ziggler said that they are on the same page, and The Authority needs to go. Cena thanked him for having his back, and said he would do the same by going to ringside with him to prevent The Authority from interfering in Ziggler’s match with Mark Henry.

Triple H walked in and was in a great mood. He banned Cena from ringside to give Henry a “fair chance” in his match with Ziggler.

He then talked about what happened to Jack Swagger, as he walked out singing “Another One Bites the Dust.”

This was great. Ziggler and Cena are working really well together, and Triple H is a great opponent for them. Ziggler is really being elevated in every segment he is involved in.

Dolph Ziggler vs. Mark Henry

Henry used his strength to work on Ziggler early. Ziggler had a short flurry of offense, but it was quickly shutdown by Henry’s strength.

Ziggler would use his quickness to avoid an attack from Henry at ringside, forcing Henry to flip into the timekeeper’s area. When Henry stood back up, he had a chair and threw it right into Ziggler’s face.

Ziggler defeats Henry via DQ.

After the match, Henry continued to attack Ziggler. Henry set up the ring steps and went to hit Ziggler with a World’s Strongest Slam onto the steps, but Big Show came out to make the save.

This segment was more about the angle than the match.

Show watched Henry run away, and told him that he joined Team Cena.

Dolph Ziggler, Big Show, John Cena and Sheamus backstage

Ziggler, Show and Cena were regrouping backstage, and trying to figure out two more guys who would join their team, when Sheamus offered up his services.

Cena immediately accepted him, as the four faces smiled and realized they only needed one more.

This was a rather lackluster way to put Sheamus on Team Cena.
