Jackson, Miss.
Report by Ernest Bowker of Brandon, Miss.
(1) R-Truth beat Fandango.
(2) Sami Zayn beat Tyson Kidd. Zayn and Kidd put on a good 15-minute match in the No. 2 spot on the card as the crowd filed in to find their seats and get into the flow of things.
(3) Brie Bella & Naomi & Eva Marie beat Nikki Bella & Alicia Fox & Cameron in a six-Divas tag match.
(4) Los Matadores (w/El Torito) beat The Ascension.
(5) IC champion Dolph Ziggler beat The Miz and Bo Dallas in a triple threat match for the Intercontinental Title. This match was well-received and probably the best of the night. Ziggler pinned Miz for the win. There was a fun sequence in the middle of the match where the three wrestlers exchanged about eight roll-up pin attempts among them. One would kick out, another would roll someone up, he'd kick out, and roll up the other guy, and so on.
(6) Adam Rose beat Damien Sandow.
(7) Rusev (w/Lana) beat Jack Swagger (w/Zeb Colter).
(8) Roman Reigns beat Randy Orton in a Street Fight main event.
NOTES: The crowd was a good one throughout the card. It's a smaller building, only holds about 8,000 people, and the third behind the stage was closed off, so there were probably 4,000 to 5,000 there. Lots of late arrivals, so it didn't pick up until the Divas match, but once it got going the crowd was into every match.
Brie Bella got a surprisingly large face pop, as did Jack Swagger. Rusev and Lana drew a good amount of legitimate heel heat; I thought they'd get booed out of the building. Ziggler and Reigns were also over with the crowd, and Orton did a great job as the heel in the main event. Orton expertly played to the crowd throughout the match. He even put a table back under the ring after Reigns had pulled it out, thus denying a table spot the crowd was anticipating (they got it later on when Orton hit a side suplex on Reigns through the table).
Solid card on the whole, even though it was WWE's B-Tour.
