#9 Bobby Lashley def. Roman Reigns

Bobby Lashley earned the victory with a spear

Match: Bobby Lashley executed plenty of impressive power moves, including a belly-to-belly suplex and his trademark stalling suplex, before launching Roman Reigns over the announce desk with another suplex. The finish to the match came when Lashley survived a Superman Punch before intercepting a spear with a spear of his own to pick up the 1-2-3.

Verdict: First of all, why did Reigns try to use the steel steps?! This wasn’t a No DQ match! Aside from that, and if you ignore the “Rusev Day” and “Boring” crowd chants, this was much better than expected. Lashley was especially impressive, although he received a mixed reception when he tried to play to the crowd, and he now looks set to face Brock Lesnar at SummerSlam.

Grade: B+
