Reigns powers out again and Bryan is taken back a bit. Bryan hits a few kicks and retreats. Bryan kicks Reigns in the face, but Reigns hits Bryan with a chop. Daniel flies over the top and Reigns hits a side suplex. He clotheslines him to the outside.

He drives Reigns into the barricade and they get back into the ring. Reigns hits a Samoan Drop and then a clothesline. Daniel hits a drop toe hold and he kicks Reigns in the back. A clothesline turns Bryan inside out. Reigns hits a few German Suplexes and begins to really punish the former world champ. Daniel Bryan stops a Superman Punch with a kick to his liver. Reigns looks hurt and Bryan takes advantage. Three running dropkicks later and Daniel Bryan is in full control. Reigns stops Bryan and hits a powerbomb from the top rope. Roman turns it up with multiple clotheslines and then smacks Bryan on the top rope.

Daniel Bryan applies the Yes Lock! Bryan hits a Suicide Dive to the outside and does it a second time. Bryan goes a third time, but is caught with a belly to belly. He tries a Spear, but crashes through the steel steps. Roman hits a Superman Punch as Bryan flew from the top. Bryan counters and kicks him in the face, leading to a running knee. He hits the knee and Reigns is able to kick out.

Roman Reigns blocks a kick and Roman Reigns gets furious. Bryan somehow applies the Yes Lock onto Roman Reigns. Reigns fights out and unloads elbows to Daniel Bryan.

All of the Roman Reigns haters can shut their mouths up. He arrived tonight. You need to realize that you need two guys to make a match work. Look at how horrible Goldberg was against a guy like Regal in WCW. There needs to be two guys in the match to make it work. This was an excellent match and when Daniel Bryan says Roman Reigns can wrestle, that means something. This was a great contest and Roman Reigns showed that he can go 20 plus minutes with some of the best WWE has to offer.
