Extreme Rules (2015) review

Event poster featuring John Cena

How WWE did it, I don't know but this Pay Per View pushed me off the edge and I bought a Seth Rollins shirt. From here and on there are going to be spoilers. The show started with a changed card, Daniel Bryan vs. Wade Barrett switched to Neville vs. Wade Barrett. Daniel Bryan took a gritty injury on SmackDown and needs time off so I wan't phased too much.  I mean everytime Bryan wrestles I'm nervous. Anyway the match starts with JBL making Bag Full of Bull Hammers a thing and making me anxious to see a Bull Hammer elbow. The Wasteland and both the Winds of Change couldn't put Neville out. The match goes on for a while until Neville delivers a fantastic dead lift german suplex. But Barrett is later kicked in the head by Neville and then drops. Finally Neville hits a Red Arrow for the win.

5 time Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett goes for the Wasteland

Next we have an incredible Chicago Street Fight with Luke Harper and Dean Ambrose. The match is one of the wildest matches I've seen in 2015. In the middle of the match Harper tries to drive out taking a page out of Grand Theft Auto playbook with Ambrose and the match keeps going on until they get back in the ring two matches later chairs are thrown in the ring. Harper and Ambrose get in and Harper gets superplexed onto the pile of chairs. Later Harper turns it all around with a running sitout powerbomb onto the chairs. But in the end Ambrose hit the Dirty Deeds on Harper and finally wins. A fantastic match, I was rooting Harper but this match was booked well a ***** from me.

A stupid stipulation but a half good match was next with the Kiss Me Arse match with Ziggler vs. Sheamus. The match goes on well until Sheamus lifts Ziggler for a slam but Ziggler goes for an inside cradle and got a roll up victory. Now it's time for Sheamus to kiss Sheamus' arse. Sheamus stalls and did what I called from the moment my guy Dolph won. Sheamus hits him with a low blow and hits the brogue kick and then rubs Ziggler's face into his ass cheecks. It was an okay match and I gotta mention that Sheamus' entrance was epic.

Dolph hits a Jumping Dropkick

Cesaro & Tyson Kidd (with Natalya) (c) vs. The New Day (Big E & Kofi Kingston) (with Xavier Woods) for the WWE Tag Team Championships

I went into this match to root for Cesaro and Tyson Kidd because New Day's gimmick is very stupid. Cesaro was great and Tyson Kidd always puts on a clinic while Big E and Kofi Kingston buzzkilled every cool moment. Xavier Woods was pretty annoying and thank goodness Natalya shut him up with a slap. Then Kidd hit him straight in the face and Cesaro threw Big E out. But this opens up the window for Kingston to pull a roll up while holding the  tights. Great match, horrible ending. 

Tyson had Kofi in a Sharpshooter

Then there was Cena (c) vs. Rusev for the WWE United States Championship. The allied forces of Lana (only half way through the match when she gets on the ring apron for no reason) and Rusev take Cena on for the United States Championship in a Russian Chain Match. The Lana part aside this was a descent match with Cena doing the AA a couple of times and Rusev putting Cena in the accolade and then hits him on two corners which later had Cena and Rusev hitting three corners but Cena finally hit the Attitude Adjustment to hit the last corner to win.

Live tweeting this I forgot that Paige was out and Naomi was facing Nikki Bella. I liked Naomi to win though, while Brie Bella cost her the belt with a roundhouse kick. This match was only half good because the match was too short. Anyway Naomi got beaten with the Rack Attack that helped Nikki keep her Divas Championship.

Naomi  hit the Full Nelson Bomb on Nikki Bella

I gotta say this Roman Reigns is growing on me. Lost in the cheers of the WWE fans Big Show makes his way to the ring for this last man standing match. I let you guys know that Big Show is my favorite guy in Last Man Standing matches ever since the match with Shane McMahon. Anyway the match was a balls out war. Judging by the amount of tables used in this match I am immediately giving it the award of excellence. Anyway Roman Reigns buried Big Show under a table and stood on it for the 10 count to beat the Big Show. My favorite moment was the chokeslam from the ring unto two tables. This was a great match and I would give it *****.

Then came the cream of the crop. The WWE world Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins fought Randy Orton in a Steel Cage with the RKO banned. Kane was the gate keeper. The match was well done but could have been better with Rollins taking a punt kick. This was my opinion before I saw Orton doing the god damn Pedigree on Seth Rollins and Kane chokeslamming everybody and then Rollins beat Orton using the RKO!!!!! Amazing match with a fantastic ending. Overall this pay per view was a solid 7.8 out of 10.
