Match 4. Dean Ambrose vs. Rusev

Main Event. Finn Balor vs. Batista
Batista attacked Balor as he was entering the ring. Batista hit a spine buster and began pummeling Balor. He hit a Batista Bomb and refused to go for the pin. Balor still kicked out of a third spine buster and a second powerbomb. Balor pulled out Bloody Sunday, but Batista won with a spear.

Batista then grabbed a chair and hit Balor some more.

Damn. Batista truly unleashed the Animal within. That was hard to watch.

Zayn took out Miz with a clothesline and Corbin with a suplex. He then pulled out a sledgehammer. Corbin sent the match to the outside. Zayn hit Miz with a German suplex on the ramp. Zayn later hit a half and half suplex on Corbin. After taking out Miz, Corbin pinned Zayn with the End of Days.

Whoever is the US champ will have Corbin chasing them down.

NXT

Miller hit Akam with a power slam. Akam hit Thorne with a back suplex. AoP wore down Miller. Thorne hit Rezar with a huge sit-out powerbomb, but got a two count. After a swinging side slam, he hit a 450 splash. Miller connected with the coast to coast. Akam took out Miller with an overhead belly-to-belly as Rezar landed a clothesline from hell to win.

That was a great tag match. TM61 had a few big moves and near falls. AoP were just too powerful.

Main Event. AJ Styles vs. Apollo Crews
Samoa Joe attacked Crews from behind. AJ hit the Pele kick. After a quick pin, he hit the Styles Clash and tope suicida. Crews came back with a shoulder block and triple powerbombs. After a standing moonsault, Crews won with a gorilla press.

Holy crap! How did Crews withstand all of that? He's a great competitor.

Sting dropped Giant with a jumping DDT. He then hit a face buster from the second rope before hitting a Tombstone but Giant kicked out. Giant took control with a big boot and sidewalk slam. He hit a standing leg drop. Sting pulled out the Scorpion Death Drop for another near fall. They went back and forth for a bit before Sting won with a second Death Drop.

After the match, Sting went for a handshake but Giant just walked away.

Sting took down the Giant. Is the title next?

Main Event. Dusty Rhodes vs. Ric Flair and Lex Luger
Oh, now this doesn't seem fair.

TNA
Match 1. R-Truth vs. Eric Young

Match 2. Damien Sandow vs. Jeff Hardy

Match 4. James Storm vs. Christian vs. Ethan Carter III vs. Alberto Del Rio
Carter hit Christian with a diving elbow. Storm pulled out a chair. He and Del Rio fought on the outside. Christian got a couple of near falls. He superplexed ECIII to the floor. Wow! Del Rio blocked the Eye of the Storm and hit Storm with an arm breaker to win.

Del Rio wants his TNA title back. This is the first step.

Main Event. Kurt Angle vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Drew Galloway
Angle took out Drew and grabbed a chair. He hit Cody over the head. Cody suplexed Angle and slammed Drew. Angle came back with three German suplexes and the Angle Slam. Drew snuck in for the pin but got a near fall. Angle missed a moonsault. Cody hit Angle with Cross Rhodes. After Drew took out Cody with a back suplex, Angle landed the Angle Slam to win.

A great triple threat match. Angle is also due a world title shot.

ROH
Match 1. ReDragon vs. WGTT

Match 2. Adam Cole vs. Tyler Reks
Jay Lethal tried to interfer, but it didn't work.

Match 3. Zack Sabre Jr vs. Cedric Alexander

Match 4. Fenix vs. Aerostar

Main Event. Kassius Ohno vs. CM Punk
Ohno locked in a Mexican surfboard and hung him over the top rope. He later landed a bunch of forearms to the face. Punk hit a back breaker and the GTS and won.

What? How did Punk win? Ohno was in complete control, too.

Recap: It's now time for Raw/SD's SummerSlam show. I think Del Rio/Angle will be fighting soon. Ohno will want his revenge. TNA is putting on some great matches.
