Comedian Matt Mathews dragged into WWE ring and speared by Bron Breakker
Social media star Matt Mathews was pulled from the audience into the ring on WWE's Monday Night Raw in Alabama, where he was attacked by The Miz, Kit Wilson and later speared by Bron Breakker.
Matt Mathews, a comedian with a massive social-media presence, appeared on WWE's Monday Night Raw in Alabama and was quickly pulled from the stands by The Miz and Kit Wilson, who ridiculed the regional crowd. Mathews countered Wilson with a head-scissors takedown but was then caught in The Miz's Skull-Crushing Finale, drawing boos from the audience. As Bron Breakker made his entrance for a Money in the Bank qualifying bout against Rey Mysterio and Ethan Page, he first speared The Miz and Wilson before focusing on Mathews.
Breakker bounced off the ropes and delivered a powerful spear that left Mathews on the mat. The match continued, with Breakker ultimately winning the qualifier and securing a spot in the ladder match scheduled for October 10. Mathews later posted a light-hearted comment about the experience on Facebook.
