8 Ups And 7 Downs From WWE Money In The Bank 2016
2. Reigns Vs. Rollins (Vs. Ambrose)
Take the implications of the two world title matches out of the equation for a second: The matches provided a hell of a lot of entertainment at the end of an up-and-down PPV, tipping the scales toward good.
Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns crafted a match with an interesting dynamic, with the returning Rollins being cast more as the hero than the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Reigns taunted Rollins, messed with his knee a little and carried himself a little like a bully beating on an injured babyface. Rollins, meanwhile, flew around the ring and hit high-impact moves often. Without the Authority there to run interference, it fell on Rollins to carry his side of the match, which meant his crowd-pleasing offense was on full display.
Fans totally bought nearly a half-dozen false finishes, but the place exploded when Rollins finally pulled off the big win fairly cleanly at that. And of course, Dean Ambrose getting revenge on Seth finally made for a great way to close out the night.
