Seth Rollins vs Bobby Lashley

Match: Rollins always puts on a great match, and Lashley has undergone somewhat of an overhaul of character - so this was an interesting character. The added dimension of Lio Rush cutting a promo to hype up Lashley definitely added that special something, too.

Lashley definitely showed his strength here, and looked every bit the powerhouse we wanted to see when he returned to WWE, with Seth Rollins showing just why we love him - putting his body on the line, at no point more so than a suicide dive that saw The Architect take a nasty landing. Again, this match was a bit shorter than you'd hope, but a brawl saw Rollins somehow down Lashley long enough to hit the Stomp!

Verdict: An okay match, but we'd want to see a much longer contest between this pair. Nice and physical - and the crowd definitely popped for a Rollins win, too!

Grade: B-
