Preshow: American Alpha, The Hype Bros and The Usos vs. The Vaudevillains, The Ascension and Breezedango
Joey:
I wish it was American Alpha vs. The Usos or Breezedango. I think this could be fun but who really cares?
Interest Level: 5/10
Prediction: Good boys win.
Tim:
It’ll be nice to see American Alpha do some stuff, I guess. This’ll be forgettable I’m sure.
Interest Level: 1/10
Prediction: The Uso Alpha Bros win.
Tom:
Aw yeah, let’s kick this off right! Tag team action! Oh yeah! Oh YEAH!!
Interest Level: 6/10
Prediction: American Alpha and pals win.
Preshow: The Dudley Boyz vs. Sami Zayn and Neville
Joey:
@WWE Send the Dudz to Staten Island. Give us Zayn vs. Neville.

Interest Level: 5/10
Prediction: Sami Zayn and Neville wins. Bubba turns on Devon.
Tim:
I’m going to take this time to say this whole Sami Zayn being in a thrown together tag match on the pre-show thing is incredibly lame. He’s had a great year in the ring and won his biggest match to date in my favorite match of the year so far just last month. All of that and this is where he’s at? You could’ve been creative and somehow worked into him and Owens tagging for a while instead of Jericho or something. ANYTHING. If this is what you were going to do with him why not just let Owens beat him again?
The Dudleyz are for the trash and I don’t want to watch two great wrestlers take on boring garbage people in a pre-show match. They’ve done nothing interesting since they’ve returned to the company. I’m pissed! I’m letting the world know.
Interest Level: 0/10
Prediction: The Dudleyz win because this is shit!
Tom:
Poor Sami. Poor Neville. Get them damn Dudz outta here. Hopefully Sami and Neville use the “fighting spirit” they learned in Japan to shoot on Big Bubba with some signature strong style strikes! Minoru Suzuki! MAMMA MIA!!!!!
Interest Level: 4/10
Prediction: Sami and Big Adrian win.
Cesaro vs. Sheamus (Match 1 in their Best of Seven series)
Joey:
There’s nothing wrong with either man and they have decent matches. The problem is it gets extremely repetitive and we all know this will likely culminate in nothing. I can’t say I’m overly excited but it could be good. They have to put this in the opening slot or on the pre-show while the crowd is still hot.
Interest Level: 5/10
Prediction: Sheamus wins.
Tim:
These two are awesome wrestlers. They really are… but Sheamus can suck the life out of me despite that. It is some sort of weird magic he has. It doesn’t help that I’ve seen them wrestle more times than I ever needed to. The story hasn’t been compelling at all. They threw in Zayn beating Sheamus for some reason. It’s just strange. We have six more of these to go. I’d rather Cesaro be doing bigger and better things at this point. It just seems like a roadblock and not a match I can be excited about despite wanting to be.
Interest Level: 3/10
Prediction: Cesaro wins.
Tom:
It’s hard to comprehend this being their first match in a best of seven series because it already feels like they’ve wrestled enough that there shouldn’t be too much question about who the better guy is. IT’S CESARO, LADS. EVERYONE KNOWS THIS.
Speaking of which, it’s testament to how great Cesaro is that I have any interest in this at all!
Interest Level: 4/10
Prediction: Cesaro wins. Continue reading
