Seth Rollins & New Day w/Xavier Woods vs Demon Kate & Dudley Boyz
Corporate Kane is at ringside for this.
As Rollins comes out Kane is shown clapping at ringside. When Kane’s music hits, no one comes out. Rollins just stares Kane down at ringside as Kane calls for the bell to be rung.
Kofi starts off against D-Von Dudley. Action quickly breaks down with all the competitors screaming at each other in the ring as we go to break.
As we come back from commercial and New Day and Rollins are stomping on D-Von. They include Rollins in their stomping of D-Von and celebrate on the apron as Rollins hits D-Von with a neckbreaker. Rollins tosses D-Von to the outside, and when he goes for a suicide dive he hits Kane and D-Von, knocking Kane to the ground. Kane gets helped to the back, and Rollins tries to stop them from moving to the back. He tags out and yells at Kane to get back in the chair. Kane smiles and heads to the back, leaving Rollins on the ramp.
Back in the ring, D-Von hits a back suplex on Big E and hits the hot tag to Bubba Ray, who takes out both Kofi and Big E. Kofi goes for a springboard, but Bubba Ray ducks and hits him with a splash. Bubba is focused on Rollins and tosses him out of the ring, but gets caught by a splash from Big E. D-Von clears the ring of Big E and hits a splash off the apron onto Woods and Big E.
Demon Kane appears and takes out Rollins on the outside, throwing him into the timekeeper’s area. Kane tries to chokeslam Rollins, but Rollins runs through the crowd to escape. Back in the ring, Kofi turns around right into a 3D. The Dudleyz get the pin and the victory. Kane grabs the WWE World Heavyweight Title that Rollins left behind. Bubba Ray tries to celebrate with Kane, and Kane hits him and D-Von with chokeslams. He also chokeslams Big E and Kofi, and hits Xavier Woods with the Tombstone Piledriver. Rollins is at the top of the ramp as Kane hits his pyro to end SmackDown standing tall.
