#8 Shinsuke Nakamura vs Dolph Ziggler
The WWE Universe didn’t seem too invested in this match and barely reacted for either Nakamura or Ziggler. Ziggler, who will be a part of the upcoming six-pack challenge WWE Title match at Fastlane, tried his best to try and play the crowd into singing Nakamura’s theme song in order to get some heat, but, once again the WWE Universe didn’t seem to care much.
Nevertheless, both Ziggler and Nakamura did manage to put up an amazing match as the crowd slowly came alive and started to respond to both men. “The King of Strong Style” picked up the win after connecting with the Kinsasha out of nowhere; following a schoolboy pin attempt by Ziggler.
Result: Shinsuke Nakamura def. Dolph Ziggler
