Rollins/Big Show Segment

Rollins asks Big Show for some help with Lesnar. Show says he needs to focus on Ryback and that he’ll return the favor by taking out Roman Reigns. These two seemed very chummy, so I guess the Authority really is back together.

We get a recap of Rusev’s attack on Ziggler. Ziggler suffered a bruised trachea and was taken to the hospital overnight and is said to be out indefinitely.

Rusev w/ Summer Rae vs Fandango

Result: Rusev def. Fandango by submission (Accolade)

Rating: 2.5 stars out of 5 stars

Rusev is wrestling in boots so he hopefully doesn’t injure his feet again. Fandango tries to impress Summer Rae which infuriates Rusev. It’s nice to see some callbacks to previous relationships mentioned by the commentary team. Rusev stays in control of this match, using his arsenal of kicks and slams. Fandango gets in a little offence, but is destroyed by the Accolade. Rusev holds it in after the bell and humiliates Summer Rae’s former beau.

The match had a good story in terms of Rusev redebuting with Sumer Rae by his side. Rusev looked great and showed no ill effects from his time spent rehabbing his injury.
