The finish came out of nowhere, but there were some good moments. I particularly liked when Swagger covered up to avoid a punch and Swagger capitalized with a DDT. I still don&#8217;t like Fandango&#8217;s fan-dance. It&#8217;s like he&#8217;s not even trying to be an interesting character.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nRAW Rebound with the &#8220;Highlight Reel&#8221; from RAW.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nReplay of the tag match featuring Ambrose &amp; Kalisto vs Sheamus &amp; Del Rio.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Dolph Ziggler vs The Miz<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Darrick Moore)<\/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_69e62308ad8cc','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_69e62308ad8cc\" 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_69e62308ad8cc\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p>Miz immediately runs into a hip toss.

There was an extended series of counters and pin attempts that was pretty cool. The only awkward thing was a Famouser that looked like it went kind of wrong. Ziggler covered for it quickly with an Oklahoma roll though, so it didn&#8217;t hurt the match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nRoyal Rumble by the numbers.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nTwo pretty good matches make for a pretty good Superstars.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Dolph Ziggler vs The Miz<\/strong><br \/>\nThere was one moment of awkwardness, but the rest of the match was good.
