WWE Raw results: John Cena put through table by TLC rival Seth Rollins
Sting, Brock Lesnar and The Ultimate Warrior win Slammy Awards
Tuesday 9 December 2014 10:58, UK
Slammy Awards were dished out on Raw – but all John Cena received was a trip through a table.
The Cenation Leader was thundered into the announce desk by TLC opponent Seth Rollins and J&J Security at the end of Monday's show after his main-event match with Big Show descended into chaos.
Cena teed The World’s Largest Athlete up for an Attitude Adjustment in South Carolina but before he could administer it, Rollins – an earlier victor over Dolph Ziggler – interfered, handing the 15-time world champion a disqualification victory.
Ziggler, Erick Rowan, Luke Harper, Ryback and Kane all then became embroiled in a brawl, but Rollins and his minions had the last word by pummelling Cena through the pine in a possible taster of the fate that may befall the West Newbury native at TLC.
Cena will tackle Rollins in a Tables Match at that event in December 14 and should he be beaten, he will lose his status as the number-one contender to Brock Lesnar’s WWE World Heavyweight Title.
Statement
Elsewhere, there were Slammy Award wins for the likes of Lesnar (for breaking The Undertaker’s streak at WrestleMania, Sting (for his dramatic appearance at Survivor Series), and the late Ultimate Warrior (for his shock return to WWE last spring).
Roman Reigns, however, seized the prestigious Superstar of the Year Slammy, fending off challenges grapplers such as Rollins, Cena, Lesnar and Daniel Bryan, before vowing to “step up” when he has fully healed from hernia surgery.
Reigns’ former Shield stablemate Dean Ambrose also delivered a statement, though he used weapons to make his point, viciously battering TLC adversary Bray Wyatt after climbing out from the back of an ambulance.
In the evening’s matches, meanwhile, The New Day’s Kofi Kingston pinned Stardust; AJ Lee – moments after being named Diva of the Year – knocked off Summer Rae; and Natalya submitted NXT Women’s Champion and the daughter of Ric Flair, Charlotte.
Plus, Rowan beat ex-Wyatt Family brethren Harper via disqualification after he was clocked by a ladder but “Big Red” did get his revenge seconds later by whacking the Intercontinental Champion with the steel stairs.
And, finally, Ryback and The Usos meshed perfectly to down Kane and WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz and Damien Mizdow, with The Big Guy’s Shell Shocked on Miz securing the triumph.
Watch WWE TLC, live at 1am on Sunday, December 14 on Sky Sports 1, or check out the repeat showing at 9pm the following evening.
