Result: Ambrose puts Rollins away with the Dirty Deeds to win the title (23:00).

Rating: Putting this on after Bryan/AJ was a terrible idea, and the super sluggish pacing turned the crowd off to the point that they chanted "This is boring".

The wrestling itself was fine, but it dragged on far too long, especially being some 3+ hours into the PPV at this point.

The match desperately needed a stipulation considering the deeply personal nature of the feud, and dining out on Rollins' bad knee yet again just felt lazy.

The right guy won at least, but a match with this much build-up featuring wrestlers this talented should never come off this forgettable. 5/10
