Battleground 2014

This is my loved/hated/recap of the ppv.

Pre-show : There were two matches, one was Adam Rose vs Fandango and was over in one minute. Rose got the pin.
The second was a woman's match and you know I didn't pay attention. 
I have to say, I like that it was shown on the WWE Website, and they used the time wisely giving two short matches in the half hour time frame.

Match #1- Usos vs Wyatt Family for the Tag titles.  This was a 2 out of 3 pinfall match.  Ran for about twenty minutes. Wyatts got the first pinfall, Usos got the second pinfall, and Usos got the third pinfall.  The Usos managed to keep their tag titles.

Match #2- Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins.  Sort of.  Ambrose jumped Rollins backstage and was kicked out of the building...damn it janet! This was the only reason I got the pay per view, to see them wrestle. What's going on there?  Anyone else feel like their wallet was raped?  Damn it!
Rollins came out later in the night to have the ref announce him winner by for-fit. Ambrose then jumped Rollins and the two semi-brawled. Triple H then appeared and physically pushed Ambrose out. Rollins wouldn't let them though, grabbing repeatedly at Ambrose.  
Rollins was leaving the arena after the Jericho/Wyatt match and got jumped once again by Ambrose in the parking lot. Ambrose had been hiding in the trunk of  a car. Okay, I thought for sure it was going to be the ambulance but...


Match #3- womens' match. - Didn't watch,  I was getting a coffee and bitching about the fact Lifetime Canada website hasn't posted the last two episodes of Witches of East End.

Match #4-Rusev vs Swagger.  Rusev won by count out  Anyone else feel this whole storyline is just...a rerun from the 1980's ? I keep thinking of the Chevy Case movie Spies Like Us, whenever I see this type of storyline...

Match #5- Bray Wyatt vs Jericho.  Jericho got the win with his trademark code-breaker.

Match #6- Battle royal for the empty Intercontinental title.   Big E, Cesaro, R-Truth, Ryback, Curtis Axel, Zack Ryder, Titus O'neil, Shandow,  Slater, Del Rio, Diego, Sin Cara, Woods, Khali, Kofi Kingston, Bo Dallas, Dolph Ziggler, Miz, Sheamus,

Woods first out
Ryder second out
Khali then tossed out
Sin Cara tossed
Truth tossed
Axel tossed
Sandow then tossed,
Diego tossed
Ryback tossed
Titus gone
Del Rio gone,
Big E gone,
Kofi tossed,
Cesaro tossed  -that sucked, he was my pick for this.
Slater tossed,
Dallas gone,
Sheamus tossed,
Ziggler tossed by Miz.  Miz is now the I.C.

Main Event- Cena vs Orton vs Kane vs Roman Reigns for the title.  Cena got the win, keeping the title.  Well that sucks

Okay, so I'm unhappy about the fact Reigns lost the main event, and I'm not happy that Ambrose vs Rollins didn't truly happen, but I'm glad that both of them had the kind of air time they did.

till later
Love Ardeth Blood
