D-Von got into a little trouble but I don&#8217;t think there was ever any doubt about who would win the match. The back and forth in the match was simple but it made sense. I do find it annoying that the Dudleys almost always call for tables when they have no intention of getting them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nReplay of the segment from RAW when Vince told Reigns that he would have a long night.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nReplay of a segment of New Day on the Highlight Reel.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nReplay of part of the New Day versus Usos match from RAW.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nReplay of part of the Ambrose versus Sheamus match from RAW.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nSting&#8217;s Hall of Fame video.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Tyler Breeze vs Jack Swagger<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Mike Chioda)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e75251733af','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e75251733af\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> <em>Show\/Hide Results<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e75251733af\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p>Swagger goes for a side headlock.
