Sami Zayn vs. Braun Strowman
Sami Zayn made hs way to the ring, which seemed more like a punishment for his failure to bring the Intercontinental title back to RAW. Strowman bum-rushed Zayn from the back and takes him down even before the match got underway. He went on to toss him around at ringside and eventually rammed him into the barricade. Strowman got back into the ring and the referee officially called for the bell.
Zayn didn’t back down from a fight and made it back into the ring before the ten-count. What followed was complete annihilation. Strowman showed why he is one of the scariest dudes in all of pro wrestling. From splashes on to the corner to some nasty chops and strikes; it seemed he wanted to kill Zayn. The fans were of the same opinion, who chanted ‘please don’t kill him’ during the match.
There was just one moment in the match where Zayn seemed to have had something going for him when he retracted from the ropes in a bid to take the behemoth down with some elbows and strikes. As expected, he was unsuccessful.
Strowman continued his destruction and placed Zayn upside down on the turnbuckle. Mick Foley had seen enough and the RAW GM came out and called for the bell. He cited Zayn’s inability to defend the reason to stop the match.And Strowman’s invincible aura just got that much bigger!
Result: Braun Strowman def. Sami Zayn via TKO (General Manager’s stoppage)
