WWE Women’s Tag Team Title Match
Damage CTRL (Dakota Kai & IYO SKY) (w/Bayley) (c) vs. Liv Morgan & Tegan Nox

Nothing really special here but good to see the womens tag belts being defended. The woman in black angle could be good here too. All women involved looked good and the crowd seemed to be into this. 

2.5 / 5

WWE Intercontinental Title Match
Gunther (c) vs. Ricochet

Fantastic match here. They gave Ricochet the chance to go all out here and it felt like he had a chance at times to take Gunthers title. Gunther sells great for bigger a big man but also has that ability to switch it up instantly into domination mode which is fantastic. 

4.25 / 5

WWE RAW Tag Team Title / WWE SmackDown Tag Team Title #1 Contendership Triple Threat Match
The Viking Raiders (Erik & Ivar) (w/Valhalla) vs. Legado del Fantasma (Cruz Del Toro & Joaquin Wilde) (w/Zelina Vega) vs. Hit Row (Ashante Adonis & Top Dolla) (w/B-Fab)

There were some decent spots here but overall this just wasn’t great. Hit Row since coming back has been horrible and all anyone will remember here is the horrible botch. It seems aside from jumping he almost has issues even running the ropes. 

2.5 / 5
