Crowd was pretty big, they didn’t have the upper deck open, but the seats were filled all the way up. Even local wrestlers from a indy fed in Idaho called Wrestle Club came to the show and were chatting it up with the fans, and having a good time with them.
First match was Dolph Ziggler vs Tyler Breeze. Good back and forth match. Not a major reaction for Breeze, but the two had a great match. Good chemistry. Ziggler won.
Second Match was a 6 man tag that saw the Hype Bros and Heath Slater take on the Ascension and Simon Gotch with Aiden English on the outside. No reaction for the Vaudevillains, but the heels worked good. A few miscues from Mojo, but an okay match. Hype/Slater win. A lot of butt slapping in this match too. Wasn’t expecting that.
Third was Apollo Crews vs Curt Hawkins. Curt worked great. Apollo was impressive in the ring with some great flips. I even yelled out “We miss you Kurt” which got a nice reaction from him. Short match. Crews wins and heads to the back. Kurt sells and gets on the microphone demanding a new opponent. Kane comes out and chokeslams Kurt in a short, short match. Probably lasted 5 seconds.
Forth was Baron Corbin vs Jack Swagger. Swagger was major over, and Corbin had some good heat. Even had some good banter with the fans. Corbin wins via throwing turnbuckle padding to distract the ref.
Fifth was Bray Wyatt vs Randy Orton. Being in the crowd for Wyatt’s entrance is something else. Accidentally yelled out Husky Harris to Bray as they were waiting for Orton to come out, but he took it good after staring bullets into my eyes. (Had no idea he hated that gimmick for the record). Orton was over like nobodies business. Great match. Orton wins via RKO. Even worked the crowd for a bit. Great match
Intermission followed by a 2 on 3 handicap match. Natalya, Alexa Bliss and Carmella vs Emma and Naomi. Good match, and Naomi/Emma win.
Seventh match was American Alpha vs The Usos. I feel like they had one or two miscues, but couldn’t tell. Heel Usos are weird to get used to again, but worked the crowd up quite a bit. American Alpha got a decent reaction, and the win.
8th and Final was A.J. Styles vs Dean Ambrose. Both got major reactions, constant back and forth crowd chants for them. Match was great. A.j. wins due to ref distraction and an exposed turnbuckle. Styles teased hitting Ambrose with the title afterwards, but Dean countered with Dirty Deeds to send the crowd home happy. All in all, great show. No word on if they would come back down the line, but it was a solid night of action.
