Bobby Roode vs Zack Ryder- King of the Ring Qualifying Match
Raw had it's fourth King of the Ring Qualifying Match, as Bobby Roode took on Zack Ryder. Ryder was looking for a big victory over one of Raw's biggest new faces, and got in offense early. Roode, though, weathered the storm and finished off Ryder with a spinebuster and a Pay Off for an easy victory and entry into the King of the Ring.
Winner and qualifying for King of the Ring: Bobby Roode
Eddie Guerrero vs Alberto Del Rio- King of the Ring Qualifying Match
Another King of the Ring spot was on the line, this time from Smackdown, as two of Mexico's finest went head to head as Eddie Guerrero faced Alberto Del Rio. Eddie thrilled the fans with a display of acrobatics, but when he got in control, Del Rio was more calculating and devastating. Del Rio worked over the arm and then locked in the cross armbreaker, but Eddie had the ring awareness to get to the bottom rope. Eddie fought back, hitting the Three Amigos and climbing to the top rope for the Frog Splash, but Del Rio somehow kicked out. Eddie tried the Three Amigos again, but Del Rio countered into a Backstabber for a 2 count. They exchanged offense, before Eddie dropped Del Rio with a big powerbomb and went for another Frog Spash, but Del Rio got out of the way. Alberto then went for another cross armbreaker, but Eddie countered. Finally, Eddie hit the Three Amigos, wearing down Del Rio enough to get the pinfall.
Winner and qualifying for King of the Ring: Eddie Guerrero
AJ Styles(c) vs Tyler Breeze- Light Heavyweight Title Match
With NXT Arrival upcoming, Samoa Joe laid down a challenge to AJ Styles for a match at NXT's first pay-per-view. Interestingly enough, AJ Styles declined the challenge, stating that his responsibilities lay with the Light Heavweight Title. In this match, Tyler Breeze had a chance to take the title back. Both men came right out of the gate with moves, hitting each other with some stiff shots. Styles brought the crowd to their feet a Shooting Star Press to the outside and Breeze did the same, DDTing Styles on the ring apron. Both men exchanged big kicks, Breeze hitting the Supermodel and Styles the Pele, but both men kicked out at 2. Just as it looked like we were going to see an instant classic, Samoa Joe came walking down the ramp, yelling at Styles. AJ, completely distracted, fell victim to the Beauty Shot as Tyler Breeze regained his belt one week after losing it. As Prince Pretty escaped up the ramp, Joe decimated Styles, putting him through the announce table with a Muscle Buster, sending a clear message to the Phenomenal One.
Winner and the NEW Light Heavyweight Champion: Tyler Breeze
Tyler Breeze becomes a two-time Light Heavyweight Champion thanks to Samoa Joe, who will now likely get the match with AJ Styles he wanted at NXT Arrival. Thanks for reading, see you on Raw.
