I&#8217;ve been to many tapings and pay-per-views at Bankers Life arena, and I&#8217;m used to seeing the venue flooded with John Cena merchandise but not this time. Roman Reigns merch was everywhere. It&#8217;s clear he was way over here in Indy. Listening to the crowd before the show started,\u00a0the New Day was also very over\u00a0Indy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; In the dark match before Main Event was taped, R-Truth went against Brad Maddox.<\/p>\n<p>Maddox, in a\u00a0promo on the way to the ring, referred to the people of Indy as &#8220;cocky pricks,&#8221; which is allegedly why he was future-endeavored. I thought that was strange because it was said in a dark match and I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;ve heard worse on WWE TV.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; I kind of expected WWE to phone this show in like most holiday-themed shows, but it was better than expected (still not great though).<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The advertised dark match was the Wyatt Family vs. Dean\u00a0Ambrose, Roman Reigns, and Kane, but Kane did not show\u00a0up. Right after the Smackdown main event when\u00a0cameras stopped rolling, the Wyatts surrounded the ring and attacked Ambrose. The attack looked super-fake like they were waiting to be stopped.<\/p>\n<p>Reigns&#8217;s music hit, then\u00a0he and the Usos ran down the ramp to clean house. This was of course so Reigns could hit a\u00a0Superman Punch and spear since he did not\u00a0wrestle on Smackdown. No match ever took place.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-171207089\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>The faces celebrated and the show was over.
