WWE Extreme Rules 2012 Live Stream Pre-Show Match

The WWE Extreme Rules 2012 pre-show goes live on Sunday, April 29th, starting at 7:30 PM EST.  This special show prior to the main Pay-Per-View will be live streaming on YouTube and features a United States Championship match.

The current US Champion, Santino Marella, will be putting his title belt on the line against one of the former champions, The Miz.  Miz and Marella were opponents at Wrestlemania as they were on Team Johnny and Team Teddy respectively.  Miz ended up winning the match for his team, which ultimately gave John Laurinaitis control of both Raw and Smackdown as the General Manager.

Santino has now held the US title for at least 54 days heading into the Pay-Per-View pre-show match.  He's recently defeated opponents such as David Otunga, Jack Swagger, and Dolph Ziggler, with the latter two in a Triple Threat match.  The Miz held the title for 224 days before losing it to Bret Hart on an episode of Monday Night Raw in Toronto.  The Miz won the title again on an episode of Raw in a Fatal Fourway match, where R-Truth was current champion.

Now on Sunday night, the former champion steps into the ring to try to win the United States Championship for a third time by defeating Santino Marella.  Marella has been dubbed the Milanian Miracle.  Can he continue his winning ways, or will the "Awesome one" reclaim the championship belt?

The WWE Extreme Rules 2012 live streaming pre-show will start at 7:30 PM EST on the WWEFanNation YouTube channel.
