Brodus Clay vs Ted Dibiase

During the match, Maryse gave her number to Grisham as part of a ploy. As Dibiase was being manhandled by Clay in the ring, Maryse pulled her cell phone out and snapped a picture of the action in the ring.

Clay was dominating the match as Maryse posed in front of the ring and shot another picture. Dibiase managed to clip Clay by hitting him in the knee.

Next up, Bateman dissed Dolph Ziggler saying he has the face of a worn-out catcher's mit. He said Ziggler's name was formerly, Turd Ferguson, which got the crowd into a silly "Turd" chant.

Curtis talked about Chris Masters, but said he can't follow up Bateman's impressive speech. Instead, Curtis slapped Clay in the face, then escaped the ring to hide near the commentators.

Finally, Brodus Clay talked about US Champion, Daniel Bryan. He made a remark that Bryan needs to bring Gail Kim to his apartment so he can show her what a real man is like. Bryan responded that a real man isn't a fat man. Clay gave a mean stare in Bryan's direction.

The heels gained control as Aksana tagged Alicia in to work on AJ.

Striker came over to say now that they've squared off verbally, they'll face off in a match, next.

Early on, Kaitlyn started goofing off doing the robot, so Naomi mocked her dancing. Kaitlyn rushed her and went for a surprise schoolboy pin.

Moments later, Kaitlyn tossed Naomi to the mat for a near fall.

Cole and Matthews pretended they were bored with Cole whistling, saying he was trying to get emotionally involved in the match, but it was tough to do. Cole made an apology for not mentioning Harley Race as a former KOTR winner last night. Matthews noted that Don Muraco also wasn't mentioned.

Both divas ended up on the outside, with Kaitlyn using a catapult move to launch Naomi towards the ring. Kaitlyn settled into a leg scissors in the ring to wear down Naomi.

They showed the Raw Rebound which recapped Miz's speech as the new WWE Champion, and Lawler interrupting to talk about how Miz won after 7 guys attacked Orton. The Raw GM eventually got involved in their argument, ordering Miz to defend the title against Lawler in a TLC match for Raw's main event. Later on the two fought it out, with things going wrong for Miz despite Alex Riley trying to help out.

Lawler was up on the ladder with Miz having crashed through a table on the outside. Michael Cole left his announce position to go try to help Miz up. Eventually, Cole got into the ring and grabbed Lawler's leg to prevent him from reaching to get the WWE Title down. That prompted Lawler to drop down, confront Cole and eventually punch him down. Meanwhile, The Miz made the climb up the ladder. Lawler rushed back up the other side but was eventually clocked in the face by the belt, so Miz was able to retain his title.

Cole reiterated he'll try to contact Lawler privately about this matter, but will address it at length on WWE Raw.

Friends Kaitlyn and AJ faced off in the finals AJ got Kaitlyn down on the mat but couldn't quite move her out of the yellow circle.

The next question was "On a scale of 1 to 5, how would you rate your rookie's in ring ability? 1 being terrible, 5 being expert." Naomi and AJ got theirs right.

NXT Results 10/26/10

WWE NXT Results from Milwaukee, WI:

Cole said it's appropriate this is Halloween week because tonight's show will be horrifying. Matt Striker was in the ring to introduce each of the rookie divas who were dressed up in Halloween costumes. AJ was a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, Naomi was Hamburger Helper Hand, Kaitlyn was Vickie Guerrero, Maxine was Ice Queen and Aksana was the Red Devil girl.

Striker said starting tomorrow WWE Universe begins elimination voting. The next elimination will be next Tuesday. He mentioned winning the most challenges gives a rookie diva immunity from being eliminated.

Tonight's first rookie diva competition was the Halloween Costume Contest. Each rookie got fifteen seconds to impress the judges, the live audience. Basically the rookies just posed and walked around the ring to some corny music. Kaitlyn grabbed the mic and started her Vickie "Excuse Me" immitation, then fell on her huge butt and pounded the mat as the fans cheered. The audience gave their reaction to each rookie diva and gave a lot of applause to Kaitlyn giving her the win.

They showed Ted Dibiase and Maryse walking backstage. Maryse said "I don't want to be here," to Dibiase and Matthews said that's how we feel too.

Nikki was ringside for her twin sister. AJ came out in her TMNT Halloween costume along with her pro diva Primo. Brie had the upperhand early on, as she settled into a headlock on AJ. AJ got to her feet to elbow her away out, but as she came from against the ropes, Brie leveled her with a clothesline. Brie put a headlock back on as Nikki yelled "finish her off!"

Brie got outside and Nikki started arguing with her. Primo came over and told them not to try that "switchy thing". AJ gained control as Brie got back in the ring. AJ had repeated takedowns for near falls with Brie kicking out. At one point, the ref was giving instructions to AJ and missed it as Nikki yanked her sister out of the ring and took her place.

He told Maryse tonight she's going to help him get it back too. Maryse said "Fine" then went off in French before leaving the scene.
