Jericho def. Neville

What an opener ! Neville and Jericho tore the house down using everything in their arsenal. The Brit looked as good as ever, if not better, thanks to the man he shared the ring with. Jericho looked like he never left, pulling a couple of awesome spots and controlling the pace of the match as a veteran would. The two elite wrestlers chose the methodical approach to go with, which is always better in long matches, to me at least. Jericho tried his best to add a story to the match. Had the match have an actual background story, this would be an A+ match. These two made the mission of surpassing them very hard and, in my opinion, none of the following matches accomplished it.

Highlight of the match :

Jericho mid-air Code Breaker

Brock Lesnar def. Kofi Kingston

This match served its purpose. Lesnar looked like an unstoppable pain which is impervious to pain. Seeing Lesnar toss people around is always enjoyable. Him not selling Kofi’s offense was hilarious. I don’t think this will really hurt New Day’s credibility. It’s a house show after all. They have been losing a match after a match for a couple of weeks now anyway.

Highlight of the match :

Brock lifting Big E like a piece of paper

Finn Balor def. Kevin Owens – NXT Title

This was the second best of the show. This was a fast-paced action-packed match. The match looked to be out of order for brief moments but, that doesn’t change the fact that this was an excellent encounter. Despite every single thing pointing toward Balor’s victory, the suspense level was high throughout the match, Owens was in the ring after all. The Canadian’s heel work from his entrance until he left the ring was remarkable. The crowd were totally behind Balor. It’s no secret that his celebration should’ve ended the show.

Highlight of the match :

Owens throwing the flowers away.

Cena & Ziggler def. Barrett and Kane

The wrestling was decent here. However, it was excruciating to set through this match, especially following two excellent matches. I understand that Cena is the face of the company and that it’s the norm that he main event house shows but, WWE could change that for once since this was a network special. Even if Cena main-eventing is an absolute necessity, there are tens of better choices. There is not any link between the four participants in the match, none. This made a total amount of zero sense.
