WWE Smackdown results 26.2.15

Dean Ambrose vs The Miz

It should be noted that Damien Mizdow isn't with Miz tonight as that commercial is supposedly shooting tonight.

This was a fairly short match that heavily favored Ambrose, who won with Dirty Deeds. Also, BNB came down and stole his title back from Ambrose.

Naomi vs Natalya

Fairly decent match that allowed these two to showcase some of their athleticism. The ending comes when Natalya feigns an ankle injury, allowing her to sucker Naomi into a discus clothesline for the win. It should also be noted that The Usos and The Brass Ring Club brawled at ringside.

Natalya def Naomi

Daniel Bryan vs Bad News Barrett

R-Truth is on commentary for some reason.

This was a pretty fun back-and-forth match. However, the match is overshadowed by the antics of one R-Truth, who steals BNB's title and hides it at the announce table. This distracts Barrett enough to allow Bryan to gain the edge, allowing him to hit the knee for the win.

Fandango vs Curtis Axel

Before the match, Axel cuts one of his usual AxelMania promos. He also has a clock showing how long he's been in the Royal Rumble. 32 days and counting.

This one is quick. Although Axel got some offense in, Fandango dominated and hits The Last Dance for the win.

Adam Rose vs Goldust

Very short match that ends with Goldust hitting Rose with the Final Cut

Goldust def Adam Rose

After the match, Stardust (disguised as a Rosebud) attacks Goldust, beating him up and eventually hitting Cross Rhodes.

Team Ziggler vs Team Rollins (Fastlane Rematch)

This was basically a reply of the Fastlane match. However, this was a slightly better match, and the babyfaces got the win after a very fast-paced ending sequence. Ryback hit Seth Rollins with ShellShocked for the win.

WWE Fast Lane 2015 review

WWE Fastlane Results:

1. Seth Rollins, Kane and Big Show defeated Dolph Ziggler, Erick Rowan and Ryback. 
Big Show knocked out Dolph Ziggler during a 10-punch on Kane in the corner, allowing Kane to chokeslam Ziggler and get the win. After the match, The Authority continued to punish Team Cena until a returning Randy Orton made the save. Orton RKO’d Kane and J&J Security and tried to hit a hanging DDT on Rollins, but Show pulled Rollins to safety.
-> lame opener in a while. Ziggler and Rollins didnt deserve this.And Ryback is still not a good wrestler at all. The split from Rowan and Harper was the baddest idea in 2014. 5/10 points

2. Goldust defeated Stardust. 
Goldust won with a crucifix pin. The referee didn’t really count to three but called for the bell anyway, so everything got awkward. Backstage after the match, Stardust attacked Goldust and yelled in Dusty Rhodes’ face.
->  sorry, not worth the ppv time. 3/10 points

3. WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Tyson Kidd and Cesaro defeated The Usos (c) to become the new Tag Team Champions. 
Kidd pinned Jimmy Uso after a fisherman’s neckbreaker.
-> yeah, finally Cesaro and Kidd got the Tag Titles. Hope they will keep them for a while. 8/10 points

– Triple H and Sting had an in-ring confrontation. Triple H insulted Sting’s role in WCW and offered him a role in The Authority in exchange for WWE maintaining his legacy — toys, DVDs, maybe even a spot in the Hall of Fame. When Sting didn’t respond positively, Hunter tried to cheapshot him and a brawl broke out. Triple H got the better of it and grabbed a sledgehammer, but Sting countered with a baseball bat and literally backed HHH into a corner. Sting demanded a match against Triple H at WrestleMania by pointing his bat at the WrestleMania sign. Triple H accepted. He once again tried to cheapshot Sting, but Sting countered with a bat shot to the stomach and a Scorpion Death Drop.
-> WOOOOHHHOOOO Sting vs HHH at WRESTLEMANIA - can´t wait

4. WWE Divas Championship Match: Nikki Bella (c) defeated Paige. 
Nikki ran Paige into the middle turnbuckle and rolled her up (with a possible handful of tights) for the win.
-> ok for a divas match but Paige really needs more tv time. 5/10 points

5. Intercontinental Championship Match: Bad News Barrett (c) defeated Dean Ambrose. 
 Barrett won by disqualification when Ambrose refused to stop stomping him. Ambrose took the Intercontinental Championship with him when he left.
-> bad booking at all. We will see the same match at Maina. 4/10 points

– Bray Wyatt did the Undertaker’s entrance, riding to the ring in a coffin surrounded by druids with torches. He challenged Taker for a match at WrestleMania, claiming he’d take the Undertaker’s soul.
-> another great Bray Wyatt promo. Maybe a casket match at WrestleMania?

6. United States Championship Match: Rusev (c) defeated John Cena. 
Cena was locked in The Accolade and was about to break it when Lana got in the ring. The distraction allowed Rusev to kick Cena in the crotch, then in the head. Cena was knocked out, and Rusev won “by submission.”
-> really - Cena lost clearly via submission??? Didnt see that coming.  7/10 points

7. Roman Reigns defeated Daniel Bryan. 
Reigns countered a Knee Plus attempt with a spear to win the match. Reigns will now officially move on to WrestleMania to face Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. After the match, Bryan and Reigns shook hands.
-> best match at the ppv but a little bit too short for the mainevent. Wrong winner anyway. Hoped for a triple threat at Mania. But hey - it´s not Cena in the MainEvent. Or the Rock.  8,5/10 points

WrestleMania is coming...

Here some of my pics and autographes:

And some ringside pics too:
