Match 1
Tyler Breeze vs Zack Ryder
(referee: Rod Zapata)
Result: Zack Ryder wins via pinfall after an Elbro Drop
Time: 8:40 (1 break)
Match Thoughts
Very good match. Another week, another nice showing by Ryder. He tends to be an underdog, but this was a pretty even match. Tyler Breeze looked just as good. Both of them had nice moves and a few counters and kept the pace pretty high. The match seemed important to both of them.
Backstage
Renee Young welcomes Paige and Natalya. Paige calls Natalya a “crazy cat lady,” Natalya says it’s time to make a statement. Naomi and Tamina says they’ll make a statement at Paige and Natalya’s expense.
Ring Area
Social Outcasts head to the ring. Bo Dallas is their last hope against Ryback. Axel and Rose argue about nicknames and “yi.” Bo Dallas starts to get inspirational when Ryback’s music interrupts.
Match 2
Bo Dallas w/ Heath Slater, Adam Rose, Curtis Axel vs Ryback
(referee: Darrick Moore)
Result: Ryback wins via pinfall after a Shell Shock
Time: 2:53
Match Thoughts
A pretty typical Ryback match. Bo had a little offense, mostly from running away, but otherwise it was all Ryback.
