BASH AT THE BEACH, Year 1

The first PPV in August belongs to SmackDown. The other two brands will share SummerSlam.

Match 1. Legion of Doom vs. Heath Slater and Jinder Mahal
Hawk and Animal tossed Jinder around like a sack of potatoes. Slater tagged himself in, but didn't stay for too long. Hawk landed a diving shoulder tackle on Jinder to win.

Match 2. Mr. Perfect vs. Goldust vs. Kofi Kingston   European Championship
Perfect hit Kofi with the Perfect-plex, but Goldust broke up the pin. Goldust countered Kofi and Hennig's attempt at a double suplex into a double DDT. Goldust then caught Perfect with the Curtain Call. Kofi missed a springboard splash, allowing Perfect to hit Goldust with the Perfect-plex to retain.

Match 3. Christian and Rob Van Dam vs. Luker Harper and Erick Rowan
This is a non-title match. RVD and Christian worked well together at the beginning. RVD tossed Christian onto Rowan. Harper missed his clothesline on RVD and received a hurricanrana. Rowan caught Van Dam with a chokeslam. Rowan then caught Christian with a spike DDT and won.

Match 4. Big Show and Ultimate Warrior vs. Ryback and Sgt. Slaughter
During the match, Diesel's music hit which distracted Warrior. Diesel appeared and pulled Big Show off the apron. He then hit the Jackknife. Shouldn't he be focused on his title match? Ryback lifted Show up and hit the backpack stunner. He then lifted the big man up for Shell Shock and got the win.

Match 5. The Rock vs. Randy Orton
Orton took Rock down with a Lou Thesz Press and some punches. He then stomped all over Rock's body. Rock mocked Orton's taunt, which bit him in the ass as Orton landed a neck breaker. Orton blocked a kick and hit the RKO. Orton kicked out of a pin and landed his second-rope DDT to win.

Match 6. John Cena vs. Edge
These two once fought over the world title a couple of months ago. Edge caught Cena with a couple of flapjacks. Cena ducked a clothesline and hit the AA, but got a two count. Thirty seconds later, he hit a second AA and won.

Main Event. Diesel vs. Sheamus   World Championship
Diesel caught Sheamus with a knockout punch. Sheamus kicked out, but Diesel hit the Jackknife powerbomb. Sheamus kicked out again and hit a powerbomb of his own. Diesel came back with a leg drop and big boot. Sheamus countered the Jackknife and hit the Celtic Cross to win the world title.

Recap: The undercard was decent. The tag matches weren't anything to brag about. The last three matches were really good.
