The Undercard
The Uso's defeated The Shield. Ambrose and Rollins teamed up for this match against Jimmy and Jey. A solid match that features quick pin falls and fast paced action was perfect to kick off the night. Jimmy picked up the speed with a thrust kick and a Samoan Drop onto Ambrose. Ambrose would kick out only to get hit a s spinning heel kick. Rollins comes in to break the count and ends up being taken to the outside. Jimmy picks up the win with a roll-up onto the US Champion. After the match, Big E Langston comes down and helps out The Uso's from being attacked. Good storytelling in the match and the finish made the faces look strong. The Shield continues to be losing and the early signs of a split are in sight.
Grade: B
The Wyatt Family defeated Prime Time Players. Harper and Rowan picked up the victory after about 5 minutes of ring work. Titus was distracted from the outside and ended up getting hit with a huge clothesline from Harper. The facial expressions and the mannerisms from Harper are so damn good right now. He is tapping into his character at every moment. I feel like they need another finisher, something more impactful. I have never been a fan of a clothesline finisher. It is too generic and too overplayed.
Grade: C
Natalya and The Bellas defeated AJ Lee, Tamina, and Alicia Fox . It looks like Smackdown will not a singles match tonight. Tamina was knocked off the apron before Natalya wrapped Lee into the Sharpshooter. Why is the champion losing clean to someone she has already beaten time and time again? AJ Lee desperately needs a few feud before her character begins to suffer.
Grade: C-
