WWE Tribute to the Troops 2014 Results: Hulk Hogan, John Cena, Seth Rollins, Daniel Bryan, and More
The USA Network aired the WWE Tribute to the Troops special as part of WWE Week on the network, and the 2014 edition begins with a tribute package that features Taylor Swift, Bradley Cooper, Will Ferrell, and other celebrities and WWE Superstars thanking the U.S. military for their service.
Hulk Hogan comes out to thank the troops for their work. The Miz and Damien Mizdow interrupt him and Miz says the Marines should be honored that he portrayed one of them in a movie. John Cena comes out and insults Miz. They argue for a while and Mizdow of course mimics Miz the entire time. They start to brawl and Cena gets the upper hand.
Seth Rollins, Luke Harper, Kane, Big Show, Jamie Noble, and Joey Mercury all come out to surround the ring and get involved. Dolph Ziggler, Ryback, and Erick Rowan come out and the faces clean house.
The Usos defeat Goldust and Stardust with a pair of superkicks and splashes.
Naomi defeats Paige, Nikki Bella, Brie Bella, Summer Rae, Emma, Natalya, Summer Rae, Alicia Fox, Rosa Mendes, and Cameron in a Santa's Helper Divas Battle Royal.
Sgt. Slaughter comes out to introduce the Boot Camp match between Dean Ambrose and Bray Wyatt. Ambrose wins the match after Slaughter tosses him a steel-toed boot, which Ambrose uses to smash Wyatt in the head and lay him out on a table. Ambrose hits an elbow drop from the top rope for the win.
Rusev and Lana come out and Rusev says he has crushed every American hero to prove Russia's superiority. This of course draws major boos and a loud USA chant. Daniel Bryan comes out and leads a "Yes!" chant. He says Americans don't back down and fight for their beliefs. Rusev challenges him to a fight, but Bryan says that proud Americans can come from anywhere, including over the wall and from the sky. Members of the military come through the crowd and rappel from the ceiling as Bryan gets in the ring. Rusev retreats and the crowd eats it up.
John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, Ryback, and Erick Rowan defeat Seth Rollins, Luke Harper, Kane, and Big Show when Ziggler superkicks Big Show into an Attitude Adjustment from Cena, who then AAs Harper onto Show and pins him for the win.
