Hell in a Cell
Watched the opening match New Day vs Rusev Day. Fun little match where New Day retained
Randy Orton def Jeff Hardy - A decent match overall, a pretty gruesome spot as Orton tortured Hardy's ear hole with a screw driver. The big spot was muffed a bit as it was so apparent that it was coming.
I just dislike Orton because he's boring and methodical. I get his character is like a cold hearted serial Killer, but he's also a black hole of charisma. This match was really put into place to write off Jeff so he can join his brother on the side lines.
Grade C+
Becky Lynch defeats Charlotte to become Smackdown Woman's Champion.
I was surprised this match was on so early. Its weird the way WWE thinks. Becky comes out all heel like and then panders to the fans. Charlotte looks like she's ready to cry. Overall a good little match with some nice spots. But I don't think it went far enough to show Becky's dislike. Some nice spots including a 1 arm power bomb by Charlotte and the Lynch pinning move. The after match moment was nice as Charlotte tried to reconcile with her old friend and raise her hands, but Becky smack talked her, raised the belt, told her that she couldn't steal her moment and left, while Charlotte I don't know looked like she wanted to cry.
Grade B- my problem is that this is a match that needed some brawling or anger
Rollins and Ambrose vs McIntyre and Ziggler (C)
Again this match seems a bit early in the match as it features 4 very good workers.Fantastic match. A lot of back and forth action and a lot of great spots. There was nothing new of surprising in this match but the four men were right on their games. I still think at times that Ziggler has been a bit wasted in his run in the WWE, but he's a fantastic worker and more importantly a fantastic seller and story teller. They really need to get Rollins and Ambrose the hell away from Reigns who needs them way more then they need him.
Grade a+ great match with a great ending.
