-Commentators: Michael Cole, Byron Saxton, & John Bradshaw Layfield.
-Sasha Banks & Paige d. Women's Champion Charlotte & Dana Brooke when Sasha made Dana tap out to the Bank Statement.
-Titus O'Neil d. U.S. Champion Rusev(w/ Lana) by countout(non-title) after throwing Rusev over the ringside barricade into the timekeeper's area.
-Seth Rollins d. John Cena after a distraction by A.J. Styles and The Club(Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows) gave Rollins the opening to hit the Pedigree for the win. (If Cena had won, he would have been added to the Battleground title match.)
-Enzo Amore & Colin Cassady d. Carlos Tocci & Mitch Walding; Enzo pinned Walding(?) after he and Cass hit the Bada Boom Shakalaka. Afterwards, The Social Outcasts came out for a war of words(and then fists) with Enzo & Big Cass.
-Becky Lynch vs. Summer Rae never started as Becky attacked Natalya at the broadcast table.
-Kane d. Intercontinental Champion The Miz(w/ Maryse) by countout when Maryse seemingly faked an injury and Miz carried her to the backstage area.
-Cesaro & Apollo Crews d. Alberto Del Rio & Sheamus; Del Rio turned on Sheamus and walked out on his partner, leaving Sheamus to be pinned by Crews via delayed Blue Thunder Bomb.
-WWE Champion Dean Ambrose d. A.J. Styles(non-title); Rollins did commentary. Anderson & Gallows came out to interfere, but Cena fought them off and Ambrose surprised Styles with the Dirty Deeds for the win. (If Styles had won, he would have been added to the Battleground title match.) After the match, Rollins attacked Ambrose from behind and hit two Pedigrees as The Club beat down Cena, ending with a Magic Killer by Anderson & Gallows on the entrance stage.

Rollins addressed Reigns' suspension in his show-opening promo; claiming that Roman should be taken out of the Battleground title match. There was also a Highlight Reel segment that set up Sami Zayn vs. Kevin Owens for Battleground; Chris Jericho ended the segment by wanting to give the fans The Gift Of Jericho (Drink It In Maaaaan), but Zayn and Owens both kicked him down.

This was easily the highlight of the night but it seems like Sami's talking points should be KO's sometimes. Shouldn't the heel be the one bragging about preventing the face from winning the Rumble, the Mania ladder match, etc and not vice versa? It just feels like they haven't explained well enough *what* Sami wants revenge on KO for beyond "they were best friends!" Just show that footage of him being powerbombed on the apron at NXT a few times and it's all right there.

Loved the Who-atts entrance. Seems like I'm in the minority, but I love the Wyatts-New Day deal. That these two teams even exist necessarily means they had to battle each other at some point. Don't know what's going on with Woods, but I'm intrigued.

Hated that Jericho had to be there to stir the pot. Totally unnecessary. But I LOVED KO completely no-selling Jericho's improv'd pot-stirring (calling out the "grow a set" chant).

Is Roman Reigns, the TV character, now a Pa-Guy-ah? Sorry, bad wordplay.

I keep waiting for Enzo & Cass to come out & save Cena from one these beat downs by The Club.

It's gonna happen ...

They keep accidentally making Seth Rollins a huge babyface. Every single thing he said about Reigns was true and got cheered, and he was even cheering for Dean in the main event.

Either HHH is giving him pointers on how to get over on everyone or Vince has a completely opposite idea of what makes a babyface in 2016 (more likely the latter).

They're totally trying to use this to make Reigns an even bigger babyface when he comes back. Not that the wellness thing isn't already a joke in a lot of ways, but the idea of just taking a break until it's time to come back and win the belt again just makes the whole thing useless.

Anyone else think Seth Rollins' Pedigree needs a name change and/or a slight variation to make it his own? He's not even storyline-connected to Triple H anymore. (Though, I suppose the name "Pedigree" makes more sense than it has in ages, since Seth was "groomed" to be Triple H's successor.)



Everything is awesome.

New Day's own wshwshwshwshwshGAH-- montage was the most beautiful sight. This should've been the Wrestlemania program (along with changing practically every other match on that card).

Having Seth Rollins turn Reigns' suspension babyface was a huge success, the BD should be more beloved than ever upon his return. I don't know what's going to be funnier, the month he's gone or the month he's back. I'm going to enjoy the month he's gone because the month he's back is going to make the sad overcompensating of the last two calendar years seem subtle in comparison.

John Cena losing TV matches on distraction 1-2-3 truly is a New Era, but another loss doesn't bode well for people expecting the lose, win, win (win extra TV rematch) JC PPV feud pattern.

I think Rollins' face turn is held off in part because it's only supposed to "count" when he eventually does it on Triple H, as they planned for last year, whensoever they choose to return to their unimpeachable ideas.

Enzo actually encouraging the fans to do the wave during a match was a perplexing way to 'engage' people. Maybe he can get them to "What" everything Cass says next week.

I couldn't tell for sure, but some of the guys looked like they were carrying a little less bulk this week ... Well, except for you Bo Dallas.

This show blew, I hate myself for sitting through it.

There is never a bad thing involving New Day. I am curious as to where the Xavier thing is going.

The wave things with Enzo and Cass didn't work at all. Were they trying to recreate the NXT crowd counting during a Baron Corbyn match back in the day during his quick squash matches? A nice idea but 'jobbers' are so rarely seen on Raw it wasn't going to, and didn't, work. Nice idea, but they have to see that the NXT 200 wrestling fans or so is different to the child friendly Cena-thousands.

Of what I saw, I feel the same. I checked out after the Jericho segment because WWE has trained me that nothing interesting happens in the third hour (arguably the first two as well).

The Jericho segment was great.

You're right, the Enzo and Cass segment fell flat, so much so that I bet it was heavily scripted, and that's shitty. Can they have Cass say more than his catchphrase? I know he can but it doesn't seem like they want him to. So now he's the guy who yells and spells. Great. He's better than that and deserves more.

Hennig looked good and made me say, "damn, Hennig looks good!" Not that he was grossly out of shape but some guys seem to back off the fitness when they're not being used (Sandow, Bo). Good to see he's going the other way with his free time.

Does Seth really need to do something to make the Pedigree that much different from others? His old Shield buddies are using old finishers that aren't much different from the people that used them before and the Pedigree gets a crowd pop, so why change it for the sake of making it different?

Hey the Cruiserweight tournament is next week on the same day as Ultima Lucha dos!

Looking through the comments on the article, it looks like, number one, the article isn't very good and gets some stuff wrong, but number two, this is about the distribution rights to the video library.
