I watched this show in two different sit downs. The reason why is because the show was a little boring for my tastes. It was so boring that even my girlfriend was wondering why we were watching. We would see the whole thing, but I’m reviewing it on Monday afternoon instead of another time. That being said, I will be reviewing the wrestling only.
Santos Escobar defeated Mustafa Ali
This was a good overall match with Escobar getting the upper
hand in the end. Mustafa Ali has to be happy with getting so much work these
days. He’s on NXT and Smackdown these days. He put in some good moments, mind
you, but Escobar escaped to get a spot in the Money in the Bank match that is
coming up in the near future.
Bayley defeated Michin
Under 3 minutes, nothing too much to write home about to be
honest. I didn’t hate it, but I also didn’t like it much. Bayley and Michin
deserve a lot more than what they are given.
Butch defeated Baron Corbin
This was under 2 minutes again, and well it was nothing
write home about overall. Butch wins, Corbin loses another match, and well that
was that.
Iyo Sky defeated Shotzi
Guess what! Another under 3 minutes and well it wasn’t that
grand. This was a bad match with a bit of back and forth, and well, nothing to
write home about with such a little amount going on overall.
Austin Theory defeated Jey Uso in the United States title
match
This was a good back and forth match, and Theory was looking
like he was going to go down for a change. A ref bump caused Solo Sikoa to jump
in but he was thwarted, and then Jimmy kicked Jey on accident, and Theory was
able to jump in and pin Jey. This was some compelling work, and it was fun to
see, a great thing.
Overall Thoughts
This was not great overall. It had a couple of good moments,
the opening and closing matches were good, but other than that, this was a slow
moving vessel of a show. It was tired. Oh, Charlotte came back, and AJ Styles got a face full of mist in another segment, not bad.
