Luckily, Kendrick seemed to be OK and he continued. Swann had a badly botched leap frog early on that nearly left Kendrick injured. The cruiserweight division needs some spice and it didn't come in the body of the Rich Swann vs. Rich Swann Wins Moderately Triple Threat Match, But Gets Jumped There would be more to come from this trio. Rollins' Pedigree put Jericho away for what felt like the 20th time in the past two months. Owens came to the ring with the intentions of helping Jericho, but those plans backfired again. There was nothing new here from an in-ring booking standpoint, nor did we see anything major happen with the storyline. This match was like a mediocre Raw main event. With the #PEDIGREE, defeats at #WWERoadblock!! /IeHrfchorZ ![]() Zayn got in a few offensive moves, but ultimately Strowman's invincibility was maintained, even though Zayn survived.Īs evidenced by what sounded like a lukewarm reaction from the Pittsburgh crowd, this could have been better. Mick Foley showed up with a white towel to add some drama, but things still felt a little off. Things aren't looking too good for as is bent on DESTROYING The #UnderdogFromTheUnderground! #WWERoadblock /CJQSE4FWcx Most of what he did was clubbing blows and that type of offense can get a little boring without variation. This was almost solely about Zayn surviving the time limit.īraun Strowman didn't perform many throwing maneuvers. It wasn't a traditional match where both men were trying to get the win via pinfall. The buildup for this confrontation was nothing less than stellar, but the match itself was missing something. Sami Zayn Survives the 10-Minute Time LimitĬongratulations /dSKvzxRgtx is not a fan of holiday gift of a new scarf. Jericho never spoke, but when he threw Owens peace-offering back at him, it was pretty clear the apology wasn't accepted. Owens immediately began trying to convince Jericho to forgive him for the mishap that cost them the tag-team titles last week. His interview was interrupted when Chris Jericho showed up. Owens is one of the best in the WWE at insulting backstage interviewers. My only question is: What happens to the New Day from here? with respect for the 483-day champs! #WWERoadblock /oLsbHrhgiv #TheNewDay hands over the #RAW Tag Team Titles. Instead of a traditional and played-out passing-of-the-torch scene, we saw the continued dysfunction of the Cesaro and Sheamus team ruin the feel-good moment. Perhaps the best and most compelling aspect of the win was the scene in the ring after the pin. The ending was unusual but well orchestrated.Ĭesaro's fake tag and surprising pin of Kofi Kingston left me feeling fulfilled. ![]() The match had the requisite eb and flow and some excellently executed spots. Their dethroning couldn't have been booked any better. I love The New Day, but their historic title reign had to come to an end at some point. No, this was much better.Īs a matter of fact, Sheamus and Cesaro's tag-team-title-winning performance over The New Day was the best tag match from the Raw brand in some time.
