Seth Rollins, Big Show and Kane backstage

Rollins and Kane were making sure that they were on the same page with Show before Rollins teamed with him against Ryback and Erick Rowan.

Show said they are not a team, but that they both want to take care of Ryback and Rowan before they move on to their individual matches at TLC.

Rollins smiled and told Kane that he thought they would be alright.

Ryback and Erick Rowan vs. Seth Rollins and Big Show

Rowan and Ryback both took turns at Rollins, but the tide turned when Show entered the match. Show really went to work on Ryback, until Rowan got the hot tag.

Rowan had trouble taking Show down, but finally did and had the big man reeling. Show went to ringside, where a little help from J & J Security helped him re-establish control on Rowan.

Ryback got the hot tag and dominated Rollins, until J & J Security provided a distraction to stop Ryback from hitting Shell Shocked.

Kane and Show both tried to get their team DQ’d, but they were unsuccessful, and the combined distraction helped Ryback hit Rollins with Shell Shocked for the win.

Ryback and Rowan defeat Rollins and Show via pinfall.

3.5 out of 5 stars – I really liked this match. Though Rowan is limited, his skills are utilized very well. The same could be said of Ryback, though Ryback isn’t as limited.
