Amell was at ringside when the The Man from the Fifth Dimension hissed at him before a match with Neville.

Stardust lost the match, but continued his rivalry with "The Man That Gravity Forgot." He also continued his war of words on twitter with Amell.

Arrow appeared on the latest episode of Raw and was sitting at ringside. After Neville defeated King Barrett, Stardust took him out before going to the outside to shove his rival.

Amell jumped the barricade and onto the ring, taking down his rival with a double leg and gave him some elbows and punches. Security quickly interfered as they pull Amell away as 'Stardust' and King Barrett retreat.

According to HollywoodLife, Triple H was furious with Amell for entering the ring and attacking Stardust. Amell demanded to have a match with the man formerly known as Cody Rhodes with Neville as his partner. The COO of the WWE ended up making the match as long as the proper paperwork is signed.
