May Week 4, Year 1

NXT
Match 1. Edge vs. Rusev

Match 2. Paige vs. Emma vs. Natalya
Emma countered a slam and landed a German suplex. Natty then hit Emma with one. The three women then fought outside the ring. Paige hit Natty with the Paige Turner, but Emma was there to break up the pin. Paige continued her dominance with a Ram-Paige and a second Paige Turner. Emam took out Natty with a sit-out powerbomb. Paige hit a back suplex and pinned Emma to win.

Great three-way between some of the best women on the roster. Paige is the champion for a reason.

Match 3. Lucha Dragons vs. The Vaudevillains

Match 4. Elimination - Wyatt Family vs. Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady
There was a lot of back-and-forth action in the first few minutes. Enzo and Cass eliminated Harper with their double-team top-rope splash. Enzo and Cass pulled out all the stops, but Rowan kept kicking out. Enzo landed a second-rope tornado DDT, busting Rowan open and won.

Enzo and Cass defeat the champs. Is a title shot in their future?

Match 5. Dolph Ziggler w/ Zack Ryder vs. Cesaro w/ Tyson Kidd
Is this the first appearance of Cesaro and Kidd? Cesaro landed a deadlifting gut wrench and a deadlift suplex. Ziggler tried making a comeback, but Cesaro threw Ziggler up in the air and connected with the uppercut. Tyson distracted Ziggler, Cesaro landed a German suplex and Ryder pulled the ref out. Ziggler hit the heartstopper elbows. Ziggler busted Cesaro open with a jumping DDT. Kidd distracted Ziggler again, which allowed Cesaro to hit a second uppercut and win.

Wow. Great match. I wonder how it would have went without Kidd or Ryder. Maybe we'll see.

Match 6. Randy Orton vs. Kevin Owens
I had a tough time simulating this match.

WWF
Match 1. Seth Rollins and Ryback vs. Kama Mustafa and D'Lo Brown
Triple H has teamed with Rollins and was ringside with Ryback. Interesting. The Nation make their debut tonight. Rollins took the majority of punishment before hitting an STO and tagging in Ryback. Kama made the hot tag to D'Lo. He hit Rollins with a tilt-a-whirl side slam and won.

Whoa. I was not expecting The Nation to win that match. What an upset!

Match 2. Adam Rose vs. R-Truth

Match 3. Nikki Bella vs. Naomi

Match 4. Elimination - Prime Time Players vs. New Day

Match 5. Roman Reigns vs. Sheamus vs. Kevin Nash
Nash hit Reigns with a big boot and then brought Sheamus to the outside. They all fought on the outside for a bit. Back in the ring, Sheamus hit Reigns with the Irish Curse. Roman busted Sheamus open with the Superman punch. Sheamus took out Nash with the Brogue Kick. Roman caught Sheams with another Superman punch to win.

Match 6. John Cena vs. Kane
Kane rocking the old school attire. Cena landed a super back suplex. He then hit the 5 Knuckle Shuffle. Kane left the ring and pulled out a ladder. Cena countered and hit the AA, but Kane kicked out. Cena ducked a clothesline and hit a belly-to-belly on the steps and won.

Average main event. The champ wins again.

Recap: That was the go-home show for Payback. I wonder who is going to challenge for the titles.
