The main goal for Jimmy and Jey seemed to be trying to solve the problem of Rowan. They kept working on Rowan (and taking a lot of damage while doing so) and eventually began to see some results. Daniel Bryan was of course always dangerous as well, and he started to take control late in the match. It was an uphill batle for The Usos, and it was fun to watch.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Panel<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nSam Roberts rejoins the panel (replacing Sonya Deville) as they go over tonight&#8217;s matches again.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at the feud between Styles and Rollins.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Panel<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nThe panel discusses the Universal Title match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/?p=5107\"><span style=\"color: #800080;\">&gt;&gt; Read the recap and review for Money in the Bank 2019. &gt;&gt;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Usos face the SmackDown tag champs Daniel Bryan and Rowan in a non-title match on the kickoff for Money in the Bank.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":5117,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1524,625,297,622],"tags":[633,345,438,916,1932,535,272,858,536,1931,446,445,1848,514,626,1257,174,2534,1095,1947,1107,2175,1263,444,570,7,1933,1675],"class_list":["post-5106","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-money-in-the-bank","category-ppv","category-show-results","category-wwe","tag-becky-lynch","tag-beth-phoenix","tag-byron-saxton","tag-charly-caruso","tag-connecticut","tag-corey-graves","tag-daniel-bryan","tag-david-otunga","tag-greg-hamilton","tag-hartford-ct","tag-jey-uso","tag-jimmy-uso","tag-jonathan-coachman","tag-kevin-owens","tag-kickoff","tag-lacey-evans","tag-money-in-the-bank","tag-money-in-the-bank-kickoff","tag-nikki-cross","tag-rowan","tag-sam-roberts","tag-sarah-schreiber","tag-sonya-deville","tag-the-usos","tag-tom-phillips","tag-wwe","tag-xl-center","tag-zelina-vega"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5106"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5106\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5122,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5106\/revisions\/5122"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5106"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
