Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan backstage

Bryan entered Reigns’ locker room to talk to him about Rollins costing him his match earlier in the night.

Reigns said he’s used to that kind of stuff from Rollins, and that Rollins will get what’s coming to him. Bryan said not to expect to get revenge at Fast Lane, because Reigns won’t be facing Rollins.

Reigns stood up and took that as a threat, and said that he doesn’t care who he has to beat, he’s going to WrestleMania to face Brock Lesnar, despite how anybody feels about it.

He then told Bryan to get out of his locker room. Bryan smiled and said, “No problem.”

There wasn’t a ton of heat here, but there’s something there.

Seth Rollins vs. Daniel Bryan for the right to face Roman Reigns at Fast Lane for the #1 Contender’s Spot

Rollins and Bryan started off with a stong back and forth, which featured some unique moves early, and saw some quick involvement with J & J Security.

Rollins wore Bryan down, trying to attack the neck, until Bryan ignited his comeback. Bryan was getting going, until he went for the hurricanrana off the middle rope, but Rollins rolled through it and got a nearfall on Bryan.

After that, Rollins got back on offense, until Bryan ducked under a clothesline, dropkicked J & J, who were on the apron, then dumped Rollins over the top rope and performed a suicide dive.

After they both stopped each other from diving off the top rope, Bryan hit a belly-to-back suplex off the top rope.

The back and forth continued, until Bryan locked in the Yes Lock, but Rollins reached the bottom rope.

Roman Reigns came running out and speared Big Show, then Joey Mercury. Jamie Noble waited in the ring to attack Bryan, but the referee saw him. While the referee was dealing with Noble, Reigns hit Rollins with a Superman Punch, and Bryan followed with a running knee.

Bryan defeats Rollins via pinfall.

After the match, Bryan got on the mic and said he’s going to Fast Lane and beat Reigns, then go on to main event WrestleMania.

Bryan got a mixed reaction from the crowd, but it was split very interestingly, as it sounded like the women and children were split right down the middle. Most nights, the women and children are going to be Reigns’ crowd.

3.75 out of 5 stars – Another good match ruined by a weak finish.
