They wrecked Kingston and Wade Barrett grabbed the ring mic. He said it was just a little taste of what the Nexus has in store for Team WWE. He said that Team WWE is searching for a seventh member but it isn't going to make a difference tonight. He said that they were so fragmented and self-important with their own egos, Team WWE couldn't get along to sign a birthday card, much less form a unit to take them out. Barrett said the Nexus are the most impressive force in the history of WWE. He told the entire company and the world, "You are either Nexus, or you are against us."

Backstage, Chris Jericho was with Miz. Jericho asked him if he saw what the Nexus just did. Jericho told Miz that as much as it pains him, they need him because he's the only man with the talent and the uniqueness to stand tall with Team WWE. Edge was also buttering him up, saying tonight shouldn't be about cashing in the Money in the Bank. Jericho said they are in Los Angeles and by joining Team WWE, he'll be big news, bigger than Avatar. Miz told them that he has a lot of things on his plate right now and he doesn't know if he wants to make the Nexus a priority. He walked off. Edge told Jericho Miz will "think about it."

LayCool's music played and out came Michelle McCool and Layla El, insulting Melina. They said that they've defeated every Smackdown Diva so they wanted to come out and share in Melina's moment.

Sheamus said that he was going to drive Orton out of the WWE like St. Patrick drove the snakes out of Ireland. Kane told him no. Sheamus told him that was fine, but he was taking Kane's nickname since everyone says he's the "Real Big Red Machine". He told Kane that if he loses and goes on one of his psychotic rampages, to stay out of Sheamus way or he'll get dropped. Kane told Sheamus he liked him and that he had guts, but they would be spilled all over the place if Sheamus ever got in his way again.

The Miz came to the ring and asked the fans if they thought he should join Team WWE. The crowd popped but he told them he didn't care what they thought. He said that the word in the back is that he's the missing link to help bring Team WWE to victory. He said that John Cena and Bret Hart asked him to be on the team last week on Raw but today when Miz arrived, Cena got on his knees and begged Miz to join because he was wrong about Miz all the time and Miz was the only person who could save them. Miz claimed that each member of the Team kissed his rear end. Miz said he was a future WWE champion and Hall of Famer and everyone needs to know that, but he needs to get to the big decision. Miz put himself over huge saying tonight was bigger than the Lebron James' decision, taking a crap on the Los Angeles Lakers along the way. Miz was tremendous. He teased the answer forever and finally said he would join them. He said that when he was done, everyone will be talking about him, not the Nexus or Cena or anyone else. He said that everyone will be admitting that he's awesome when the match is over. He ripped on the fans for trying to do his catch phrase with him and told them to raise their hands if they have something to say. Great promo.
