The pre-game show is streaming live right now.  Josh Mathews and Matt Striker are the hosts outside. They threw it inside to Scott Stanford, Jim Ross, Dusty Rhodes and Kofi Kingston.  So this is how Kofi gets on the show.  I will be back when there is something besides promos to talk about.

It is a lot of fun listening to Dusty and JR. I feel bad for Kofi that this all they have for him today.

They showed The Miz in the back with Snooki. At least one JerseynShore person got in. Wade Barrett came in. Snooki liked Miz better. Lucky him.

I laugh when I hear them talking about the NFL combine bench press record. Uh neither Mark Henry nor Ryback are 20 year old college kids are they?

JR and Dusty were great in talking about Henry vs. Ryback match.

They showed clips from Thursday's press conference.

They are outside with fans. The weather is pretty good. Scares me to see grown man rooting for John Cena. They should know better.

Time for dopes to send Touts. Bathroom break time.

Now it's time for the build to The Shield vs. Orton, Sheamus and Big Show.

Time for our match at Wade Barrett is defending the Intercontinental Title against The Miz. Miz comes out first. The Stadium looks great. There is a long rampway leading down. The Miz is wearing NY Jet green. The crowd booed. Maybe they are Giants fans, or maybe they just don't want to be reminded. I kid the Jets. Hell, I am an Eagles' fan. ... It may suck to be on the pre-show but at least there is still some sun out for them. ... Miz gets a near fall early but Barrett kicks out. Wade gets a two with a whirlybird sidewalk slam. Very impressive. He goes for the Bullhammer Elbow but Miz ducks it and puts on the Figure Four. The crowd is popping. Barrett gets away. He hits Wasteland for a two (the sound is ahead of the picture for me, which is weird). Miz gets the Figure Four again and Barrett taps out. The Miz is your IC Champ. The crowd gave him a nice pop. It was a fast match but it was fine for what it was.

They saved pushing Rock vs. Cena for last. Sure looks like that will go on last. If Cena wins and the crowd riots, I hope they leave Mike Johnson and Jess McGrath alone. God, Cena saying his year went into a tailspin, despite headlining everything, it rubs me the wrong way. But they have my money so let's hope for a good show.

4:00 away, we could hear them announcing JBL coming into the stadium. Uh oh, the YouTube feed went out. Eps said that the X Box feed is giving an error message. Time for me to head to the living room and pray that my feed is still coming in.
