Following Rusev’s vicious attack of Zack Ryder and his acceptance of Long Island Iced-Z’s challenge for a United States Championship Match on Raw, The Bulgarian Brute turned his attention to Dolph Ziggler on SmackDown.
Rusev seemed to have the match well in hand against The Showoff until, in a measure of retribution from Monday, Ryder emerged, ultimately distracting the United States Champion and allowing Ziggler to roll up his adversary for the three-count. As the dust cleared, Rusev became enraged and began destroying everything in sight.
Advantage Ryder.
