Lana is no longer wearing business suits. She has Dolph-wear on now. Sorry, dinner came so I ate. This match went to a double countout and saw Rusev in charge until Dolph made the come back. They couldn’t get in the ring before the count but when Rusev tried to destroy Dolph, Lana made the save. The heels backed off and went to the back. It was a good, solid match,
Then we had Stephen Amell and Neville beat Wade Barrett and Stardust. Amell was great. He sold like a mofo. He finally made the hot tag and Neville came in. Amell wanted to do a big move and splashed the heels on the floor. Neville then did the Red Arrow on Barrett for the pin. It was really good, I liked it a lot.
The IC Title Triple Threat Match is next.
Early on it was all action. Miz was there to try and steal a win. Show and Ryback were doing big impact spots. With Miz near dead Show went for the knockout but Ryback blocked it and went on the offense and with help from the crowd hit Shellshock on Show. Miz came in and tried to steal pins on both guys, to no avail. Ryback came to and called Miz stupid and went for Shellshock but Show KO’d him. Miz tried to steal a pin but Show stopped him with the punch. Show went for the cover but Ryback knocked Show to the floor and pinned Miz. It was way better than I expected it to be. They kept it short so it was all action and pretty good.
Jon Stewart went to confront Brock Lesnar but when he knocked on the door, he got Paul Heyman instead. Paul said look what happened when his gut, Taker, fought his guy. Jon said he was mad when his guy ended Taker's streak. They do know Taker has been a heel since he came back, right? Jon said that Paul gave kids coal for Christmas. What do you have to say about that. No, he didn't say we are both Jewish. He sang Glory Glory Brock Lesnar and then told John, "I guess we couldn't get David Letterman to host the show.
The Wyatts vs. Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns is next.
The fans gave Bray a good pop when he got in the ring. The faces were ever too, but not like that magical first time they met in six man action. Anyway, Ambrose and Reigns started hot and it went to the floor. The face were on fire. Ambrose hit a big elbow off of all three announce tables on the floor, then tool Harper back into the ring. Then it just went crazy with bodies flying everywhere, ending with the Wyatts in control. Yeah, I think they all know that NXT had a kick ass show there last night! … With Reigns left for dead on the floor, the Wyatts went to work on Ambrose. … Ambrose took a beating for a few minutes but then Reigns finally came back and made the hot tag. The NY crowd had some boos for him. He kept working hard and ignored them, which he should do. The Wyatts the went to work on him, which made the haters happy. But then Reigns came back, to a mixed reaction. It’s kind of sad how some fans act. Reigns tagged in Ambrose to try and chill the haters and they hit the Doomsday Device and got a two. Bray went for Sister Abigail but Deam hit Dirty Deeds. Dean tagged in Roman, who hit the Spear for the win, which was the right finish. The faces celebrated afterward. No turns, thank God. … Very good match, brought down a little for me by the fans that don’t realize that Reigns got depushed and is working hard to try and earn their respect.
Looks like the WWE Title match is next. Taker vs. Lesnar closes the night.
