Randy Orton defeated Dean Ambrose
The match starts with both men exchanging blows. Ambrose is finally able to get more than one move in at a time, as he punches Orton in the face and then rakes his eyes. Ambrose locks in a few submission holds, one that has Orton choking himself. Ambrose is able to send Orton to the outside and takes control. After the commercial break, Orton has a headlock onto Ambrose. Ambrose is able to plant Orton with a DDT. Ambrose unloads with a flurry of kicks and punches and then locks in a Figure Four. Orton grabs the ropes to break the hold. Ambrose throws Orton into the barricade and then tosses multiple chairs into the ring. Orton is able to ram Ambrose into the ring post and over the barricade to hit a hanging DDT. Orton hits an RKO onto Ambrose to pick up the win.
This was a really good match. The fans were finally exposed to plenty of Ambrose's offense. His crazy and lunatic fringe is unique and will ultimately let me shine. When you are in a stable, you have to adapt to that. When Ambrose broke from The Shield, we finally got to see what he does best: ring psychology. As for Randy Orton, he continues to put on excellent matches and is able to adapt to whatever opponent is given to him.
Score: 8/10
Alberto Del Rio defeated Dolph Ziggler
These guys make it impossible to put on a bad match. Ziggler gets a nice DDT and a reverse suplex from the top rope. Del Rio gets on the offensive and then Dolph is able to counter with a Fameasser. Fandango, doing commentary, starts dancing on the table. This distracts Ziggler, which allows Del Rio to pick up the win. I wish the match lasted longer and did not focus more on a glorified mid card dancer.
I really hope WWE does not have long term plans for Ziggler/Fandango. Fandango is completely irrelevant and a feud like this for Ziggler will do NOTHING for him in future PPV's. The best he could ask for would be a pre-show match with Fandango. I know this is connected to Summer Rae, but Ziggler and Summer could be something much more important and interesting.
Score: 5.5/10
Sheamus defeated Damien Sandhart
Sheamus beats Sandow, who is dressed as Bret Hart. Sheamus needs a real feud and more storylines that involve him. He is such a good fighter, but this is the reason that people are going to boo him. It has been the same old gimmick for too long. The impatience is kicking in by the days and eventually he will have to turn heel for fans to care again. It is sad that this is what will eventually happen.
Score: 4/10
