Elias Samson’s win over Dean Ambrose last week was an impressive mission statement, but if there was one off-note about the victory, it was that interference by The Miz ended the match in a disqualification.
Samson needed no such technicality on his Raw follow-up performance, when he thrashed a local named Zac Evans. The intrepid competitor attempted to beat Samson back with chops to the chest, but the brawling balladeer responded by smashing Evans’ head against the ring apron, bowing him across the ring post and, finally, finishing him off with the swinging neckbreaker.
