WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match – Roman Reigns Must Win in Under 5:15
Sheamus (c) vs. Roman Reigns

Result: Roman Reigns defeats Sheamus via DQ.

Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Reigns runs after Sheamus and rolls him up twice for one counts. Sheamus came after him with an uppercut and a knee to the gut. Reigns hit a clothesline for a near-fall.

After Reigns whipped Sheamus into the ropes, the Celtic Warrior ducked away. He would attack Reigns outside the ring to waste time.

In the ring, Sheamus hit a knee to the chest for a one count.

Sheamus put two long holds on Reigns. Roman would fight back with headbutts and a clothesline for a one count. He hit a big boot for a two count.

Reigns hit a Samoan Drop for a two count. He set up for the Superman Punch but Sheamus rolled away. Outside the ring, Sheamus tossed Reigns over the announce table.

Reigns would get up and continue to attack Sheamus outside the ring. He tried to get him in the ring as the time counted down. He would finally do so until Rusev came down to cause a DQ. Alberto Del Rio and King Barrett would come down and pull Sheamus away.

Sheamus then gets on the mic and welcomes his group of Rusev, Barrett, and Del Rio as the League of Nations. Dean Ambrose and The Usos come out for backup for Reigns.

Rob’s Note: I can get behind this new faction. Gives all four guys something to do (even though Sheamus kind of had something big to do). It should last a while and provide some possibly important feuds down the line.

Next: Charlotte vs. Becky
