Cesaro vs Sheamus (6th match of Best of 7 Series)
Cesaro and Sheamus met again in the sixth match of their best of 7 series. Sheamus led 3-2 going into the match and a win for Sheamus would signal the end of the series. A win by Cesaro would take the series into a 7th match.
Sheamus wasted little time before attacking Cesaro’s back. The Celtic Warrior pounds Cesaro’s back and looks like he’s a man with a plan. Cesaro countered an Irish Curse Backbreaker and tried to go for a Neutralizer but Sheamus managed to escape. Without blinking an eye, Cesaro immediately hit a running uppercut to ground Sheamus. Just as Cesaro looked to have the upper hand, Sheamus launched him out of the ring as Cesaro ran towards him.
Sheamus dropkicked Cesaro off the top turnbuckle as we came back from the commercial, He then hit Sheamus with a patented running uppercut before bouncing his head off the ring post. He then rolled Sheamus back in the ring and hit Sheamus with a spinning springboard forearm. The Swiss Superman then went for a deadlift German Suplex from the apron but Sheamus overpowered Cesaro and his bad back with a White Noise on the apron for the nearfall. Sheamus stayed right on top and went for the Brogue Kick but missed. However, he caught Cesaro and hit him with multiple Irish Curse backbreakers followed by a Sharpshooter. Cesaro powered out and went for a Neutralizer but failed again because of his back.
With Cesaro reeling against the ropes, Sheamus went for another Brogue Kick to finish Cesaro off but Cesaro ducked out of the way and Sheamus went over the top rope but managed to stop himself on the apron. As Sheamus bewilderingly went to launch himself back in the ring, Cesaro caught him and finally hit the Neutralizer for the pinfall.
Cesaro def. Sheamus
Mick Foley and Jericho were backstage and Jericho told Foley that he was tired of the way Foley is running things and treating his best friend Kevin Owens. Jericho told Foley that he was making a list of all the problems that he had with the latter and that he was calling it “the list of Jericho”. Jericho says that number 5 on his list is Foley’s terrible fashion sense but Foley retorted that a grown man in a scarf was in no place to give out fashion advice.
An indignant Jericho said that his scarf was the latest trend in Luxemburg. Foley, however, pointed out that Jericho looked stupid because he wasn’t in Luxembourg.
