1/6 WWE Main Event Results: Jack Swagger vs. Titus O’Neil, Rusev & Lana Address WWE Firings, Divas Match Steals the Show & More

[Cont.]

The champ is basically toying with her opponent at this point, not taking the match seriously. Thesz press from Paige, but Nikki runs through her with a shoulder block. Nikki rolls into a nice cross arm bar but Paige keeps her hands linked and fights out of it. Arm drag by Paige followed by a series of clotheslines and a running dropkick to build up some momentum. Brie Bella gets on the apron to cause a distraction, but Paige kicks her and Natalya rushes over to tackle her to the floor. Paige with a superkick on the Divas champ! She hits the Rampaige for the 1-2-3!

Winner: PAIGE

KILLAM: Uh…what the heck was that!? Since when does WWE give the Divas – and Nikki/Paige at that – 15 minutes to work on any show? That was better than anything anyone did in three hours of Raw last night. Nikki was booked as an uber dominant, competent champion for the first time in…ever. Paige played the underdog and it worked. I don’t know where THESE Divas came from, but I hope they stick around.
