Check out which wrestler EC3 finds cute RIGHT HERE
Analysis: Paige needs a new contender for the title, someone who can put on a solid match with her.
Post match, Aksana tried to help Fox to her feet, but Fox dropped her and unloaded on her. She took some water bottles and popcorn from the fans and showered Aksana with them. She then apologized to her and stuffed her mouth with popcorn and acted crazy.
Santino Marella vs. Jack Swagger (With Zeb)
Santino dropped Jack and connected with another hip toss. Zeb slapped Jack a couple of times, which brought the aggression out of Jack. He unloaded on Santino and planted him in the middle of the ring. Swagger missed with a shoulder in the corner, but Swagger connected with the gut wrench powerbomb to pick up the victory.
Winner: Jack Swagger
Rating: ½ *
Analysis: The bout was apparently made because Santino got offended he was on Zeb’s deportation list. If that’s WWE’s logic, then I have nothing to one – up that.
Backstage, Cody confronted his brother and told him that he had a new partner for Goldust next week. He said he was something Goldust had never seen before, and he would magnify his magnificence.
Stephanie and Triple H were then shown celebrating their success. Stephanie talked about Cena interrupting her last week and getting involved with The Shield this week. Triple H told her to forget about him, and enjoy their success. Vickie brought champagne for the power couple, but sneezed on them. Stephanie slapped the champagne from Vickie and told her to get out, or that she would fire her again.

Harper came in and put the lid on Ambrose as the Wyatts then controlled the tempo of the match, working over Dean Ambrose as WWE went into commercial.

Reigns tossed Rowan onto the floor as Ambrose nailed a huge suicide dive on both Bray and Rowan. Harper then nailed a superkick on Reigns for a nearfall. Reigns then decked Harper with a spear to pick up the victory for his team.
Winner (s): Cena, Ambrose and Reigns
Rating: ***
Post – match, Rollins and Triple H came out and stared down Ambrose and Reigns as Cena and The Shield celebrated their victory.
Analysis: That was a decent main event, but the ending was predictable. That is the problem with Cena’s involvement, which hasn’t been great for TV, especially in the past few weeks. We’ll have to wait and see how the feud unfolds between Ambrose/Reigns and Rollins/Evolution.
Over – all rating of the show: ** ¾ (Out of 5 stars)
Everything felt stretched out, except for a few matches. Some of the things on the show wouldn’t have even made the cut during the mid 2000s when WWE had depth in their roster, and the characters were interesting. WWE hasn’t given the fans a reason to watch their episodes, which has been reflecting in their ratings. Anyway, that does it for this week’s live review. Hope you’re enjoyed the show.
