Kevin Owens vs. Dolph Ziggler
When we return from the break, NXT Champion Kevin Owens makes his way to the ring. Owens talks about losing to John Cena at Money In The Bank last night and explains why he attacked Cena after he lost.
According to Owens, Cena told Owens off-mic that “you belong here,” meaning WWE — which Owens just told us he took offense to. He goes on to say he has a win over Cena still, so he deserves a rematch, and this time he wants the U.S. title on the line.
With that said, Owens issues an open challenge. Out comes Dolph Ziggler to accept. Ziggler cuts a mini promo and then finally, Owens reveals that he only issued an open challenge, he didn’t say the NXT title would be on the line.
Finally, the bell sounds and here we go. Owens immediately gets Ziggler out to the floor as we head to a mid-match commercial break.
We’re back from commercial and we see Owens in full control of Ziggler in the ring. After a few minutes of back-and-forth action, finally, Owens hits his finisher and scores the 1-2-3 in an absolutely excellent match. We head to another break.
Winner: Kevin Owens
