I expected more from Mahal after his recent signing, but I guess he&#8217;s here to enhance the mid-card. Or, at least, that&#8217;s what it seems like from this match. The match was fine, but mostly dominated by Sin Cara.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA replay of Rusev and Lana&#8217;s wedding celebration from RAW.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA replay of Foley talking to Daniel Bryan on RAW.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Match 2<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Breezango vs The Hype Bros<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: John Cone)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e7523bd6239','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e7523bd6239\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e7523bd6239\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Zack Ryder pins Tyler Breeze after the Hype Ryder<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 6:14<\/strong> (1 break)<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nGood match, though it made me a little mad.
