Retribution vs The Hurt Business (Elimination Match)

MVP cuts a promo prior to the match saying that when they’re through with the match they’ll have rid WWE of Retribution and earned their payment.

The match has a pretty strong open where The Hurt Business seems to have the advantage despite the size of T Bar and Mace. Reckoning gets on the apron and she starts twitching, seeming to have a fit which distracts MVP and allows Slapjack to roll him up for a pin as Reckoning continues to squirm.

The next elimination is Slapjack though as Bobby Lashley dominates him. The fight between Bobby Lashley and T-Bar that happens causes a Double Count-out making the teams 2 v 2. Mace has a strong performance against Cedric Alexander but when Shelton Benjamin gets tagged in he hits Pay Dirt leaving Ali alone against Benjamin and Cedric.

Lana vs Lacey Evans vs Peyton Royce vs Nikki Cross.

Pat Buck and Adam Pearce are in the middle of the ring to announce the 5 women for the Raw Survivor Series’ team. The first four announced are Nia, Shayna, Dana, and Mandy. The final competitor will be determined by a fatal four way match taking place now. Peyton Royce and Nikki Cross get a significant amount of offense.

After the match she goes and approaches her team, Nia gives Lana a hug but won’t let go. For the sixth week in a row Nia puts Lana through the announce desk.

Matt Riddle vs Sheamus

This is the third Survivor Series spot match for tonight, which is odd since they’ve both only been on the brand for 2 weeks. This match utilizes the full space of the ring, both inside and out having constant action. Sheamus keeps enduring the heaviest hits Riddle throws his way including a Super Exploder. Riddle tries to land a Floaty Bro but Sheamus gets the knees up and Sheamus targets the back. Sheamus finally lands a Brogue Kick for the win to earn his spot on the team.

A Moment of Bliss with Randy Orton

Alexa’s music gets a slightly warped tinge to it when introduced. Randy Orton refuses to sit, and admittedly Alexa’s juvenile behavior is creepy. Randy says he knows Bray better than anybody and wants to know where The Fiend is. Drew McIntyre’s music hit sand he comes out fighting while Alexa Bliss sits in the corner and laughs. The lights start going out in the Thunderdome and when they come back up Randy is on the ramp while Drew is in the middle of the ring but The Fiend appears behind Randy. Without looking behind him Randy walks away from The Fiend and back toward Drew where the fight between the two continues. The show ends after Randy slams Drew onto a table once again.
