Sioux Falls, S.D.
Report by Aaron Wickre, PWTorch correspondent


(1) R-Truth beat King Barrett. R-Truth came out singing to his same old "What's Up" song he's been using forever. King Barrett cut a quick promo about how he's king of the United States, and how he dislikes South Dakota. Late in the match Barrett attempted the Bull Hammer, but R. Truth ducked, and then hit the Lie Detector for the win.

(2) NXT Women's champion Sasha Banks (w/Team BAD) beat Bayley. This was a preview of next Saturday's Women's Title match at "Takeover" in Brooklyn. When Bayley started to get some offense in, either Tamina or Naomi interfered. Bayley eventually went for a roll-up on Sasha, but Sasha reversed it, and then held the tights for the three count.

(3) Jack Swagger beat Adam Rose via submission to the Anklelock. Rose showed more offense then what you see on TV. Swagger locked in the Patriotlock for the win.

(4) IC champion Ryback beat Big Show and The Miz in a three-way match to retain the Intercontinental Title in a Summerslam preview. As soon as the bell rang, Miz ducked out of the ring and let Ryback and Big Show fight by themselves. Miz stayed outside the ring until he needed to rush in to break up a pinfall. Miz then immediately got back out, and took cheap shots when one of his opponents was down. Show got fed up and chased Miz around the ring. Miz slid into the ring, but was met by Ryback, who tossed him over the top rope. Ryback and Big Show fought each other until Ryback knocked down Show with a Meathook clothesline. Miz snuck up behind Ryback and set up for the Skull Crushing Finale, but Ryback reversed Miz into the Shell-shock and then pinned Miz to retain his title.

(5) Jimmy Uso beat Heath Slater. Not much to this match. Uso knocked out Slater with a superkick and got a quick pin.

(6) Lucha Dragons (Kalisto & Sin Cara) beat The Ascension (Konnor & Viktor). Ascension had control over Kallisto for most of the match. Sin Cara got the hot tag and knocked both Ascension members out of the ring. Sin Cara then threw Konnor back in to Kalisto, who hit the Salida Del Sol. Sin Cara followed with a Swanton Bomb for the win.

(7) Roman Reigns beat Bray Wyatt in a Street Fight. This was the best match of the night. Wyatt came out wearing a leather apron. He later took off the apron and used it to whip Reigns across the back. Roman fired back with some punches which made Wyatt leave the ring. Bray then reached under the ring and grabbed a kendo stick. After a couple stiff shots, Reigns was able take the kendo stick from Wyatt and hit him back with a few shots of his own. Reigns then broke the stick in two. The crowd chanted "We Want Tables," so Reigns went out to look for a table, but Wyatt attacked him from behind and ran Reigns into the steel steps. Reigns made a comeback and had Bray down long enough to set up a table in the middle of the ring. Bray got up, and set up Reigns for the uranage slam. Reigns tried to fight it, but could not, and Bray sent Reigns through table. There was a short "This is Awesome" chant right after the table spot.

After a close two count, Bray through Reigns outside and went to whip Reigns into the steel steps that were set upright earlier in the match. Reigns reversed it and sent Bray head-first into the steps. Reigns then set up another table in the ring. After some more exchanges between the two, Bray took control and started punching Reigns in the corner. But, Reigns was able to slip out from the corner, and get Bray in position for a powerbomb. Reigns walked with Bray to the table and dropped him though hit. Reigns went for the pin, but Luke Harper's music started playing and Harper ran in for the save. Reigns took care of Harper by throwing him into the steel post, and then speared Bray Wyatt for the win.

Overall, the crowd was divided during the main event match. The women and kids cheered for Reigns, and the men cheered for Wyatt.

Decent show, overall. The arena was about 80 percent full with a few sections empty since they were obstructed by the set.
