Singles Match
Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Sami Zayn

A solid match between these two as expected. I’d love a serious Sami run soon though. Good match with some close falls and the near count out. I did like the near count out going right into Nakamuras finisher for the end. 

3.5 / 5

Singles Match
Drew Gulak vs. Gunther (w/Ludwig Kaiser)

Boring squash for Gunter. 

.5 / 5

Singles Match
Shotzi vs. Raquel Rodriguez

Pretty much just a squash. Shotzi got a few moves in but that’s all. Raquel is booked strong and her finisher looks good but here was a bit sloppy like she couldn’t get it set up. 

.75 / 5

Singles Match
Xavier Woods vs. Butch

Another quick match. Both guys are good but this wasn’t anything special. 

2 / 5

WWE RAW Tag Team Title / WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title Winner Take All Unification Match
The Usos (Jey Uso & Jimmy Uso) (c) vs. RK-Bro (Randy Orton & Riddle) (c)

A really solid match with an ending that made sense. I figured there would be some sort of dirty finish here. This gives RKBRO some time off and continues The Bloodline story. Match was very heavy with Riddle being in and Randy being out which is impressive since word was Riddle was wrestling injured. 

3 / 5
