Seth Rollins def. WWE Universal Champion Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho
Try though he did, Seth Rollins wasn’t able to tear Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho apart before the main event Triple Threat Match by stealing the “List of Jericho.” But he did one better and pinned both of them at the same time. Initially, things had been going swimmingly for the two best friends, who ganged up and teed off on the helpless Rollins. The Architect found himself set up on the top rope for a double-superplex, but Rollins simply slipped down the turnbuckle, executed a textbook double-powerbomb of Jericho and Owens, and pinned them both to the mat simultaneously.
He paid dearly for the feat, though, as Jeri-KO mugged The Architect after the match and threw him shoulder-first into the steel steps. Once Jericho had departed the stage and Owens was left atop the ramp by himself, Rollins struck back, fighting through security to initiate a brawl with the WWE Universal Champion. He paid dearly for that, too, as Owens seized control of Rollins and executed his patented apron powerbomb. Hell in a Cell awaits, and for all his bravado, Rollins goes into the match with a distinct disadvantage: Unlike Mick Foley in 1998, he’s already broken in half.
Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman responded to Goldberg
So Goldberg, as we learned last week, is down for a fight if it’s a fight Brock Lesnar wants. The only thing left for the WWE Universe to wonder is what The Beast Incarnate thought about being “last” on the former World Heavyweight Champion’s hit list. The answer? Well, he and Paul Heyman are none too thrilled that the WWE Universe has thrown its support behind Goldberg as his collision course with The Conqueror begins. Though Heyman tried to sway the crowd in Lesnar’s favor, the WWE Universe didn’t quite seem to be entirely on the side of The Beast Incarnate. Hmmm ….
Raw Women’s Champion Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair signed their Hell in a Cell contract
Hell in a Cell may boast the rare distinction of a Triple Main Event, but only one of those marquee matches — Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair for the Raw Women’s Title — has the smell of history about it. As the first women to ever battle inside the Cell, pressure is on the two Horsewomen to deliver. Raw General Manager Mick Foley took his opportunity to warn the two Superstars about the dangers that await them inside Hell in a Cell — dangers they might not fully appreciate just yet.
If Sasha was relaxed in the face of history, however, give credit to Charlotte, who was raring to go from the second Sasha walked in the ring. Charlotte demanded Foley give her the contract at the top of her lungs and vowed to beat respect into the “second-rate talent” holding her title. Sasha was calm, cool and collected in her response, and even though Foley all but begged the women not to sign away years of their life unless they were truly ready to lose them, sign they did. Next stop: Hell in a Cell.
