Winner- Roman Reigns

That was a phenomenal match. Both Reigns and Kingston brought their proverbial “A” game tonight. That said, WWE might have telegraphed who is going to be facing Seth Rollins for the world title next. Granted, we all knew it would its going to be Reigns, but having Reigns interrupts The Authority and wrestling in the first match against someone who we all knew would not be in the fatal four-way main event is just flat out lazy. Why not have his qualifying match right before the main event and have it be against a legitimate threat? Del Rio maybe? The night is still early so they could still swerve us, but it isn’t very likely.
