Darren Young & Local Worker vs The Ascension
The Ascension cuts off the other team’s introduction and attacks them before the bell, then they beat Young in the corner until Titus O’Neil runs out for the save. Titus whips Viktor across the ring and kicks Konnor in the face, then Darren whips him out of the ring and they talk trash to the Ascension.
Result – No Contest
BP: I can’t ever remember a name Superstar teaming with a local guy; maybe there’s some trivia. I like the Prime Time Players reunion here, they never should have broken up in the first place. I do like Slater Gator, but this team was great together.
Damien Mizdow (w/ The Miz) vs Bad News Barrett
Sandow stomps Wade until Miz rings a bell, and makes Sandow clean his shoe, then Sandow gets back on the apron and Miz distracts him again. Wade knees Sandow in the face and slams him into the ring apron, then Sandow catches Wade with a neckbreaker and Miz rings the bell again. Sandow was setting up for a Skull Crushing Finale but breaks it, then Miz says ‘nevermind’ and Wade hits the Bullhammer for the win.
Winner – Wade Barrett
Dean Ambrose runs in from the crowd and slams Wade into the ringpost, then he zipties Wade around the post and holds up his contract. Wade screams at him but Ambrose says he is signing the contract whether he likes it or not, and Wade tries to get away and screams to cut him loose. Ambrose forces him to sign anyway, and Wade screams that it’s illegal and it’s not his signature, but Ambrose says he will see him at Fast Lane and celebrates.
BP: I’ll look at this two ways; it was unique and fits Ambrose’s character, but it was also just as absurd as John Cena duck taping Batista to a ring post.
