10 min readBo Dallas v Neville:
I feel sorry for these guys having to follow that match. Neville and Bo Dallas have good in ring chemistry, and could have a good match, but tonight is not their night. This match in particular was a rather simple affair, with Bo Dallas gaining the advantage early, and showing slight signs of aggression in doing so. Bo Dallas ends up running into a big kick from Neville which set him up for the Red Arrow, and the win.
Winner: Neville
Intercontinental Championship Elimination Chamber Match: Ryback v Mark Henry v Sheamus v Dolph Ziggler v Wade Barrett v R-Truth:
Mark Henry comes out first as the replacement for Rusev. I’m a big Mark Henry fan, but I don’t think he’ll add much to this match. The match starts with the two work horses of the bunch, Ziggler and Barrett. Barrett gets the upper hand on Ziggler early putting the boots to him in the corner, and taunting virtually everyone in the match. Next out of his pod is R-Truth who immediately gets attacked by Barrett. Barrett beats down Truth, goes back to Ziggler and beats him down some more, eventually breaking open Mark Henry’s pod. Mark Henry is hesitant to leave his pod, but after a few minutes he gets out and goes after Barrett. He looks a little rusty and almost confused about what’s going on, even breaking up a pin by Barrett in an every man for himself matchup. Ryback is out of his pod at this point and is going after everybody. Henry gets Barrett in the corner and hits him with hard knees to the gut, Dolph hits him with a Kick, Ryback hits him with a spinebuster, and R-Truth nails Barrett with the Lie Detector and covers him for the pin. Barrett is the first eliminated. The timer goes off and Sheamus is supposed to be the next one out, but his pod gets stuck leaving the other four men to fight for the moment. After a pretty silly round of roll up attempts, Ryback, Ziggler, and Truth all team up on Mark Henry, until Ryback breaks the chain by hitting Ziggler with a clothesline. Ryback and R-Truth battle it out for a bit, until Ryback gains the upper hand and nails Truth with the Shell Shocked for the second elimination for the night. What we didn’t see was that Sheamus had used his necklace to lock the pod, and once everyone in the match was down, he slyly opened his door, got in the ring hit Mark Henry with a Brogue Kick for the third elimination. We’re now down to three men and the action is heating up. Ryback somehow ends up on the steel grate outside leaving Sheamus and Ziggler to fight it out inside the ring. The two trade some back and forth offense, and Ziggler ends up hitting his big DDT for a near fall. the two continue to scrap, and Sheamus goes for the Brogue Kick, Ziggler avoids it, but gets nailed with a repeater Brogue and pinned. It’s now down to Ryback and Sheamus, and Sheamus is on the offensive. He is really taking it to Ryback, tossing him around like a ragdoll. The two battle outside, and Sheamus hits White Noise on Ryback on the outside in a pretty dangerous spot. But, Sheamus ups the ante and hits the Rolling Senton on the outside as well for extra measure. The action ends up back inside the ring, where Sheamus continues his beatdown, until a small mistake gives Ryback the upper hand. Ryback hits the Shell Shocked on Sheamus and covers him for the pin and becomes the new Intercontinental Champion in the process.
Winner: Ryback
