It's been stated many times that this entire storyline is incredibly unfortunate for all involved, so this opening sentence will be the only reminder of that fact. The couples of Rusev & Summer Rae and Dolph Ziggler & Lana all met together in the ring on Monday Night Raw and of course, things got explosive.

The ladies removed their heels to show that they were ready to throw down, but the attack came from Rusev. He used his crutches to beat down Ziggler, then gave a shock kick from his 'injured' foot. He removed his protective boot afterward to show that his foot was healed up.

The real insanity came when Rusev took a crutch and lined it up with Ziggler's throat. He slammed The Show Off down, presumably causing great harm to Dolph Ziggler. For a company that issues statements to their announcers saying that merely saying the word 'choke' is too taboo, it's a wonder that something like this can get okay-ed for TV.
