1. Show-Stealing Tag Match

Hats off to Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler, who stole the proverbial show Sunday night.

The quartet had a barnburner of a Raw Tag Team Championship match. Rollins spent an early portion getting beaten down, but then things broke down into a frantic pace, with both teams trading finishers. A curbstomp was reversed to a Fame-asser, which was reversed to a buckle bomb, which then segued to a Zig-Zag for a close 2 count. A Claymore kick was reversed to a superkick and frogsplash for another 2 count.

In the end, a Rollins superplex/Falcon Arrow combo was interrupted by a Claymore, which gave the tag champs the win. It was the right call – the new heel faction that had just won the tag titles needed the win – and it was an electric match that provided a lot of excitement right in the middle of the show.
