Thank God.
Thank God.

A Move never seen before

This was just Mind-Bending.

Staring Summerslam with the Intercontinental Championship was probably the best option that WWE had for the show. With two highly acclaimed wrestlers like Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler involved in the match, two equally popular stars like Dean Ambrose and Drew McIntyre at ringside and a wide crowd cheering, it was expected to be one of the best matches on the show.

And it was. From the opening bell to the closing bell, the 4 superstars involved presented a sensational story. While the match was somewhat slow during the first half, we can't argue with the fact that last 5-6 minutes were as exciting as any other hot match. Seth Rollins' win was surprising, to say the least, but it certainly wasn't the biggest shock of the match.

That title belonged to that crazy top rope maneuver that brought everyone in the crowd on their feet. We have seen Rollins perform the superplex and falcon arrow combination before, but he took it to a whole new level here. Instead of performing a normal superplex, Rollins climbed to the top rope and launched Ziggler face first onto the mat with a huge reverse superplex, before following it up with a swinging reverse DDT to a close 2 count. While we have seen innovation from time to time in the ring, this move was just mind-bending.
