At WWE Starrcade, Bobby Lashley and Rusev finally took their rivalry to the next level. They faced off in a Last Man Standing match. Before the match, Lana said she was thankful for her “hot boyfriend,” Lashley. Lana announced there would be no Last Man Standing match at WWE Starrcade. She filed a restraining order against Rusev. “Rusev Day is cancelled,” Lana said. Lashley claimed the victory by forfeit and the referee confirmed it. But Kevin Owens came to the ring and refused to end the show on such a disappointing note.

Owens said no one cares about Lana ‘s “stupid relationship” with Lashley. Owens then took Rusev’s place in the match. A superkicked rocked Lashley but he dodged a Stunner. A dive off the apron took Lashley down. The Almighty took control of the matchup and grounded Owens. The PrizeFighter rallied and hit a Senton and a Frog Splash for a near fall. Owens dropped Lashley with a Stunner but Lana distracted the referee. Lana gave Lashley a steel chair but Rusev rushed into the ring and attacked the Almighty.

The referee threw out the match and Rusev kept continued his assault. The fight spilled into the crowd, where Rusev hit Lashley with a trash can. Lashley turned the tables and sent Rusev sprawling into the steel steps. The Almighty hit Rusev with a kendo stick but Rusev overpowered Lashley. Rusev hit Lashley with a kendo stuck and broke it over his knee. Then, Rusev attacked Lashley with a chair and kicked it into his face.
