WWE house show report 4-12-15 Manchester, England: John Cena vs. Rusev, Roman Reigns vs. Big Show

Submitted by Dean Naylor

– Finn Balor vs Neville: Both received a great reception. Balor played the heel in the match by exiting the ring multiple times. Neville wins with the Red Arrow which looked great live.

– New Day (Kofi and Big E) vs. WWE Tag Champions Cesaro and Kidd: Decent match with New Day really playing up to the crown and telling them to be quite and to only clap. Cesaro and Kidd won with the giant swing into the drop kick. After the match, Woods started moaning to the crowd and issued an open challenge.

– R-Truth came out and won a quick squash over Woods. Woods played his role excellently.

– Mizdow defeated Miz: Mizdow incorporated several of his old Damian Sandow moves like his elbow and Russian leg sweep.

– Roman Reigns beat Big Show in a mediocre street fight. Reigns dodged a corner table spot sending Show through the table then followed up with the spear. Mixed reaction for Reigns.

– Natalya defeated Alicia Fox with the Sharpshooter.

– Jimmy Uso vs Fandango: Jimmy and Jojo danced to Sexy and I Know It, quick match, Uso with the splash.

– Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, Erick Rowan vs. Bray Wyatt, Wade Barrett and Sheamus: Decent match. Bryan didn’t get in until the end and after everybody took everybody out, Bryan made Barrett tap to the Yes Lock.

– Rusev vs. WWE US Champion John Cena: Not the best match, Cena won with the after standing up in the accolade and then hitting the AA. Sending this literally as the show ended. For the record, only Cena shirts available for kids leaving lots of fans unhappy.
