The usual well attended post holiday house show with lots of kids and women.

1. Goldust beat Paul Burchill. Goldust won clean after a suplex turned into a reverse neckbreaker.

Kelly Kelly hosted a trivia contest. The question was where is WrestleMania this Year? The fan won the prize.

2. Melina and The Bellas over Maryse, Katie Lea Burchill and Alicia Fox. The girls were dressed as Santa's little helpers. Melina pinned Katie Lea with her finisher.

3. Miz beat MVP in a U.S. Title match. Miz won clean with his finisher. He did prematch mic work heeling the crowd on Santa Claus.

4. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase defeated Primo Colon and Evan Bourne. Legacy won clean with DiBiase pinning Primo with his finisher. They hyped "The Marine 2" during the prematch promo.

5. Mark Henry beat Jack Swagger. Henry won clean with World's Strongest Slam

6. Chris Masters beat Chavo Guerrero. Masters won with the Masterlock. Squash.

7.Randy Orton pinned Kofi Kingston. The best match of the night. Back and forth. Kofi kicked out of an RKO, but Orton hit another one moments later and pinned him.

8. Triple H beat Big Show in a street fight. Hunter won after a Sledgehammer shot. Garbage cans, chairs with some outside brawling. People were disappointed with no Shawn Michaels on the show.

9. John Cena beat Sheamus via DQ in a WWE Championship match. Sheamus cut a prematch promo about how he's not a fluke. Cena won after a low blow by Sheamus. The post-match promo Cena says he'll win the title back on Monday night.
