This was just an exhibition for the Shining Stars, but they probably needed something like this.

Match 2
Jinder Mahal vs Darren Young w/ Bob Backlund
(referee: John Cone)

Show/Hide Results

Result: Darren Young wins via pinfall after a Gut Check
Time: 7:32 (1 break)

Match Thoughts
It was a little ugly at times (Mahal chopped Young in the face when he was probably supposed to duck, and Young hit an awkward-looking seated senton), but after the first portion of the match it became pretty good. I liked the final portions of the match. Mahal’s “peaceful” attitude came through in the match, and Young had some nice, hard-hitting moves.

 

Video
From RAW, a replay of part of the Jericho/Rollins match.

 

Show Impressions
This was kind of okay. I understand the purpose of squash matches, but I’m not a huge fan of them. And I think Young and Mahal could do better.

Match of the Night
Jinder Mahal vs Darren Young
There were some minor issues with the match, but it was still better than a squash.
