WWE SmackDown Spoilers, Results for April 23, 2015: Shield Reunion Against Seth Rollins in Tag Team Main Event
The final "SmackDown" before Sunday's "Extreme Rules" pay-per-view has been taped featuring the return of two members of the Shield teaming up for the main event.
"SmackDown" begins with WWE World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, and he delivers a promo stating he does not need Kane or J&J Security to support him this Sunday. Rollins is interrupted by Director of Operations Kane. The two Authority members get into a heated discussion, including Rollins referencing Kane's loss to United States Champion John Cena. Kane suggests a match against Rollins, but he wants the WWE World Heavyweight Champion to take the pin just like Kane did last week on "Raw."
Rollins and Kane have a non-title match. Although Kane had wanted Rollins to lay down and allow the director of operations to have the pinfall victory, Kane says he was only joking with Rollins. Instead, Rollins will have a match against former Shield member Dean Ambrose. Ambrose makes his way to the ring but encountered Luke Harper, his opponent at "Extreme Rules." Roman Reigns makes the save and a tag-team main event is scheduled featuring Ambrose and Reigns against Rollins and Harper.
