It wasn&#8217;t quite the caliber of most of the matches from the Cruiserweight Classic, but this was a lot of fun. I think a big difference was that this match didn&#8217;t feel like it had so much riding on it, so Swann and Dorado seemed to have more fun with this while the CWC matches were all very competitive. Both guys had a god showing and it was a very even matchup.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">** It&#8217;s interesting to see that they branded the ring with purple ropes for the match. I&#8217;m not sure how I feel about them further separating the cruiserweights from the rest of the roster, but I do like that they kept the pre-match handshake. **<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nFrom RAW, Sasha and Bayley team up to take on Charlotte and Dana Brooke.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Breezango vs Heath Slater &amp; Rhyno<\/strong> (SmackDown Tag Champs)<br \/>\n(referee: Mike Chioda)<\/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_69e6000331f61','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_69e6000331f61\" 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_69e6000331f61\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Rhyno pins Tyler Breeze after a gore<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 7:54<\/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. Breezango, once again, showed some great teamwork. I don&#8217;t think they get enough credit for the clever ways they work together in the ring. On the other side of the ring, Slater and Rhyno worked well for how they wrestle: Slater gets beat up and Rhyno saves the day.
