IC Championship Fatal Four Way - Wade Barrett (C) vs Jack Swagger vs RVD vs Big E
Swagger and Zeb are out first for this fatal four way match. Zeb states that it's good to be back in Scotland, to which he receives a lot of boos. He says Newcastle is practically Scotland anyway and do the English think they're better than the Scottish, Welsh, Irish, English - the crowd started booing but then stopped at this point - and Americans, to which the crowd recommenced their jeers. Zeb states that if the crowd don't stop booing, which they don't, he'll show them what he thinks of Newcastle. Swagger produces a Newcastle United strip and proceeds to throw it on the floor, stomping on it, which gets them more heat.
Next out is RVD who gets a big pop, followed by Big E, who doesn't. Barrett appears next, getting a huge pop as another English Superstar. He's afraid he has some bad news for the three athletes around the ring as he promises he'll never loose on British soil.
Chants of "Bad News Barrett", "Zeb's mustache", "RVD", "Dutch Mantel" and "Five" break out throughout the match.
Great match with a lot of too and fro action. Big E makes friends with the steel steps courtesy of Wade. Swagger nearly saw off Big E with a Patriot lock but the ref caught Zeb pulling the bottom Rope away from Big E, and is sent to the back by the ref, though he doesn't actually go. Wade also gets landed with the Big Ending. RVD gets a lot of momentum and maintains control of the match for the majority of it's duration. Swagger, who impressed me with some great displays of athleticism, eats a five-star frog splash, but the subsequent pin is broke up by Wade, who has recovered on the outside.
There's a rush of action in the ring and Wade clocks Swagger with the Bullhammer for the win. The crowd go wild.
Mark Henry vs Fandango
Fandango is out first with Layla, still wearing her ring gear from earlier in the evening. Some of the crowd start Fandangoing. Next out is Henry, to a decent pop. Roberts announces that the votes are in and the match will be a dance off, which generates a lot of booing from the audience.
Fandango does some fruity routine and gets in the face of Henry, who steps up and the lights go out. A spotlight shines down on Henry who has produced a sequined glove and starts dancing to Billie Jean by Michael Jackson, crotch grabs, moonwalks and all. He even attempts the splits, to which Fandango reacts by stomping at his head. A fight breaks out and there's a scuffle outside the ring which Henry gets the better of. The crowd cheer as he returns to the ring and celebrates, though a winner wasn't announced. He climbs out the ring and gets a young girl from the audience, bringing her into the ring and they dance to Billie Jean before he raises her hand and the crowd cheer.
Street Fight - Randy Orton vs Roman Reigns
Orton is out first to some major heat followed by Reigns who gets a big pop as he emerges from a different part of the audience to that which he did earlier in the night.
Orton gets an early advantage over Reigns and controls the match for a long period of time. He leaves the ring and returns with a Kendo stick, blasting it across Reigns back and chest repeatedly. A chant breaks out for Reigns who eventually starts building momentum and brings a table into the ring, propping it up against the turnbuckle. Orton retakes control of the match and hits his signature second-rope DDT on Reigns, setting up for the RKO but the bigger man gets out the way and hits Orton with a flying forearm. He follows up with a flurry of shots with his own Kendo stick. He positions Orton to be drilled through it but the former champion dodges and the Samoan crashes through it. It's weird that you don't pick up the sound of the metal bending on the tables when watching on TV but it definitely sounds more viscous in person.
