The matches themselves. There's not really too much of a story there behind really great match psychology.

It all started in a Beat the Clock Challenge. CM Punk defeated Matt Hardy in something like 7:12 to set the original time. Kane and Dolph Ziggler then wrestled each other, both looking to break the time and become the tentative #1 Contender to The Undertaker's World Heavyweight Championship. During this match, Ziggler got Kane in a version of the sleeper hold, and grounded him until time ran out. If Ziggler had more time, he might have actually choked Kane out, or something.

The next week, Kane and Ziggler fought a second time. This time, the match spread to the floor, and Ziggler managed to lock in his sleeper hold again. The referee was counting out both guys, and Ziggler slipped back inside the ring just in time to not be counted out while Kane was, making Ziggler the winner.

This past week, Kane and Ziggler had a third match. Ziggler again tried to lock the sleeper hold in on Kane outside the ring, but Kane backed Ziggler into the ring post this time -- learning from his past experiences. Ziggler would go for a Zigzag on Kane, but Kane caught it, and went to sidewalk slam Ziggler, but Mr. Ziggles back-flipped out, but then walked right into a Chokeslam for the loss. Cool finishing sequence.

So as we head into SmackDown! this week, Kane and Ziggler are 1-1-1.
