Live from Madison Square Garden[1][2] was a professional wrestling event produced by WWE. It took place on October 3, 2015 and aired exclusively on the WWE Network. The event was hailed as part one of Brock Lesnar's Go To Hell Tour and his return to Madison Square Garden in his first match in the arena since his original departure from the company in 2004. The event also marked the 25-year anniversary of Chris Jericho's debut in the professional wrestling industry.[3][4]

The show featured professional wrestling matches involving wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines that played out on WWE's primary television programs, Raw and SmackDown. Wrestlers portray heroes (faces) or villains (heels) as they follow a series of events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches.[5][6]

The event featured Brock Lesnar in a match with Big Show, which was Lesnar's first match at Madison Square Garden since WrestleMania XX. Lesnar and Show previously had a feud in January 2014 after Show confronted Lesnar on the January 6 episode of Raw.[7] There was a short physical confrontation between the two, starting a feud which was settled at the Royal Rumble 2014, where Show lost to Lesnar after being brutally assaulted with numerous steel chairs before the match began.[8]

On the July 27 episode of Raw, United States Champion John Cena challenged Seth Rollins to a match for Rollins' WWE World Heavyweight Championship, which The Authority instead made for Cena's United States Championship. Cena won the match by submission, during which Rollins legitimately broke Cena's nose.[9] Rollins then challenged Cena to a Title vs. Title match at SummerSlam; Cena accepted, but Rollins won when guest host Jon Stewart interfered on Rollins' behalf.[10] At Night of Champions, Cena defeated Rollins to regain the United States Championship. The following night on Raw, Cena defeated Rollins in a rematch for the title.[11]

Dolph Ziggler and Rusev had an ongoing feud, stemming from Ziggler forming a romantic relationship with Lana, Rusev's former valet. The two fought to a double countout at SummerSlam.[10] In a rematch on the August 31 episode of Raw, Ziggler won by disqualification following the interference of Rusev's new girlfriend, Summer Rae.[12] Ziggler defeated Rusev at Night of Champions to end their feud.[11]
