The WWE may be scripted, but sometimes its performers are forced to improvise. 
That was the case on Sunday night during a house show in Anaheim, when the top rope broke during a tag-team match pitting Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler against Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins, according to Aaron Varble of WrestlingNews.co.
It snapped after Rollins hurled McIntyre into the ropes, sending him out of the ring and onto the floor.

Reigns and Rollins ultimately won the match. And folks in Anaheim got to see the sort of equipment failure that rarely happens and certainly made for a unique spectacle.
