WWE World Heavyweight Champion John Cena & Roman Reigns def. Randy Orton & Kane via Disqualification
In three weeks, John Cena, Randy Orton, Roman Reigns and Kane will be bitterest enemies battling over WWE’s ultimate prize. But on Raw, the fatal foursome entered into a pair of uneasy alliances as a prelude to the Battleground main event that will stack the odds higher than ever against Cena’s budding title reign. Oddly enough, it was Reigns who took the brunt of the punishment from The Authority’s foot soldiers on Raw; Orton in particular was looking to balance the scales against the 12 staples he received in his head the previous night.
Reigns was able to beat back Kane long enough for Cena to make his entrance; an ensuing brawl took the big dog and The Viper up the ramp and left The Champ to fend for himself against The Devil’s Favorite Demon. That he managed to do so was owed to a technicality – Kane bashed him in the head with the steps for the DQ and then Tombstoned him – but that he managed to survive a cash-in from Seth Rollins was owed entirely to Dean Ambrose, who took advantage of an argument between Triple H and the officials to chase Rollins from the arena before the bell could ring.
That he managed to survive further punishment from Kane was owed to Reigns, who returned to Spear the demon in two and stare Triple H down until The Game backed off. At least for now, the status quo remains.
