Team Authority Wants Ryback
John Cena starts off the show and wants to recruit Ryback for his team. Ryback comes out and The Authority immediately comes out and tries to persuade him. Ryback says that he is not afraid of The Authority and John Cena does not sign his paychecks. Ryback hits a spinebuster and then walks out of the ring. It looks like Ryback is either with The Authority or for himself.
I have my opinions on Ryback and questions him as a long-term solution, but now could be the perfect time for him to get some credibility back. He has a chance to face John Cena in the main event 2 weeks before a major pay-per-view. Ryback has been polarizing ever since his run a few years ago.
If WWE really wants to make him a big time face, they need to give him credible wins immediately. He could be a dark horse in someone that benefit from the injuries of Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan. I just cannot see him in any big plans heading into 2015.
This segment was really good and really made it feel important. The addition of Jack Swagger to Team Cena tells me that he will most likely be eliminated very quickly. He has rarely been used since losing to Rusev.
Seth Rollins defeated Jack Swagger
Rollins gets in a cheap shot and punches Jack Swagger into the corner. Rollins hits some kicks into his stomach and drives an elbow to his neck. Swagger hits a suplex and then begins his offense. Swagger smacks him in the chest over and hits a leg drop. Seth Rollins hits a dropkick, but Swagger hits a hop toss. Seth Rollins ducks to the outside and we head to a commercial break.
Seth Rollins ends up hitting a Curb Stomp and picks up the win, after being taken down by Jack Swagger numerous times. After the match, Rollins hits a Curb Stomp again and stands tall.
Two different styles mesh pretty well in this match. I thought Seth Rollins really carried the emotion and mentality throughout the match. Swagger is really good and consistent. He might not be flashy in the ring, but he is a guy who is a constant professional who has a gimmick that can connect with any crowd. He is a good, yet strange, addition to Team Cena.
