Summer Rae vs. Layla
Summer Rae makes her way to the ring. Out next, is Layla. The special guest referee for this match is Fandango. The bell rings and here we go.
Summer gains the upper-hand early, stomping away at Layla in the corner. Fandango orders Summer to break, so Summer walks over and tries to kiss Fandango. Fandango seems into it, but before they actually kiss, Layla nails Summer from behind.
Layla takes over the offense momentarily as a loud “CM Punk” chant breaks out. Layla continues her domination over Summer and covers her. Fandango gets down and counts the 1-2-3. Layla wins.
After the match, Layla and Fandango make out as Fandango’s music plays and we see Summer Rae laying in the middle of the ring. Fandango and Layla leave together.
Winner: Layla
Money In The Bank Ladder Match
(WWE World Heavyweight Championship)
– John Cena vs. Roman Reigns vs. Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton vs. Cesaro vs. Kane vs. Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio
A video package airs, highlighting the situation surrounding Daniel Bryan being stripped of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship by The Authority, and the title being put on the line in the Money In The Bank ladder match. The video shifts to focus on each of the eight participants in tonight’s main event qualifying for the match.
After the video package, we shoot live into the TD Garden where we see a closeup shot of the two WWE title belts hanginng above the ring. Justin Roberts does the formal introductions for the main event. “King of Kings” plays, as Roberts introduces Triple H and Stephanie McMahon. The Authority make their way to the ring.
Now we get to the Superstar entrances, led off by the WWE United States Champion, Sheamus. “The Celtic Warrior” makes his way to the ring. The Wyatt Family cut-in happens and we see Bray Wyatt on the titan tron. “Boston, I’m here,” says the leader of The Wyatt Family. He blows out the latern, his theme music hits and out he comes. Next out is Alberto Del Rio. Then, Cesaro is accompanied to the ring by Paul Heyman. John Cena comes out next to a loud mixed-bag reaction, leaning more towards “boo’s,” despite the fact that we’re near his hometown tonight. Randy Orton comes out next. Roman Reigns is out next, through the crowd, to a pretty good reaction. Finally, Kane makes his way to the ring.
The bell rings and here we go. All eight guys immediately break off into pairs of two and duke it out all over the ring and all over the floor outside the ring. The fans zone in on some loud “let’s go Cena” and “Cena sucks” dueling chants. The announcers talk about how this is the most significant Money In The Bank ladder match in history, as the vacant WWE World Heavyweight Championship is up for grabs, and the winner of the match tonight will leave Boston, Massachusetts as the new champ.
The pairings seem to be Cena-Wyatt, Reigns-Kane, Cesaro-Sheamus and Orton-Del Rio early on, however they have been mixing and matching throughout. It’s been made very clear early on that Kane is not so much trying to win this match, as he is trying to make sure everyone but Randy Orton loses. It’s pretty clear early on that Kane’s key objective is to serve as the The Authority’s henchman and do everything possible to ensure Orton walks out of this match as the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
A huge spot happens where Sheamus and Cesaro climb the ladder and end up grabbing a hold of the loop that is securing the title belts above the ring. The ladder is removed from underneath them, so they each dangle above the ring with nothing under them. They both end up holding on with only one arm, as they trade punches while hanging there. Eventually, Sheamus is knocked off and takes a huge bump. Cesaro continues to hang on, but eventually falls down, and is immediately met with a big back-splash by Wyatt.
I must have missed it, but according to the commentators, Orton was busted open pretty bad. A ladder is draped from the Spanish announce table and the ring, creating a bridge effect. The announcers talk about how they are surprised that WWE trainers were able to clean up Orton, who they talk about being busted open earlier. Sheamus takes a big bump on the bridge-ladder setup outside the ring.
Meanwhile, Orton brings the giant, super-sized ladder into the ring. He sets it up underneath the belts in the center of the ring. Orton and Reigns try to climb up the opposite ends of the ladder, however, all of the guys are back in the ring now and they stop both of them. Each guy tries to climb, but gets stopped by someone else. Literally, every person takes a turn trying to climb a few steps, only to be stopped by someone else. That was almost a comedy spot.
Everyone ends up clearing each other out of the ring, as literally no one is in the ring now. Everyone is out selling on the floor as Michael Cole exclaims, “my god, there are bodies laying everywhere!”
Back in the ring, Sheamus and Cesaro are back on their feet. A bridge effect is created with a ladder again, this time in between the giant ladder under the belt and the ropes. Wow, this is hard to even describe. At one point, due to a balance effect, Cesaro is hanging off a ladder that is leaned way over, with Cesaro’s back right above the ring post, with the ladder he’s hanging off of being leaned back in a weird angle. Anyways, it ends up getting straightened back up, so nothing really happened there.
Sheamus climbs up the giant ladder under the belts and gets a hold of the loop, and he dangles off of it momentarily, but Kane yanks him down. Orton clears Sheamus out of the ring and now it’s just Orton and Kane left alone in the ring. Reigns, out of nowhere, spears Kane. Orton follows that up by blasting Reigns with the ladder.
Things work out to where Reigns and Cena are left alone in the ring. They milk the crowd, slowly walking closer to one-another. They eventually start firing punches off back-and-forth, with Cena ultimately hoisting Reigns up for an Attitude Adjustment as the fans boo loudly. Reigns escapes, however, and blasts Cena with a huge spear. The fans explode with cheers.
Reigns and Orton end up trying to climb up the same side of the ladder. They duke it out with punches, and trade turns slamming each other’s faces into the ladder. Orton is busted wide open. Reigns knocks Orrton off of the ladder. Kane knocks Reigns off. Cena hits an A.A. on Kane and then Orton. He climbs the ladder and takes the titles off. John Cena wins. Michael Cole touts John Cena now being a 15-time champion.
Winner and NEW WWE World Heavyweight Champion: John Cena
