Enzo Amore & Big Cass vs. Alexander Rusev & Sylvester Lefort

Amore's schtick is now 100% over with the audience. Cass and Rusev start things off and Rusev gets the early advantage. Rusev destroys Enzo and then also takes out his partner as well. He immediately puts Cass in the Accolade for the easy victory. As his music hits, Lana is up on the ramp and Rusev walks back with her. That certainly put Rusev over convincingly. 

Match Rating: 1/4* (out of 5)

Aiden English vs. Jason Jordan

English nails his entrance as always and we get a Jason Jordan spotting here. I love that English is surprisingly aggressive in the ring. English hits the Director's Cut for another quick victory tonight.The crowd wants an encore and English delivers it. He even gets roses thrown into the ring. Why was he not a bigger thing in NXT? 

Match Rating: 1/4*

They show Neville from last week getting medical attention after the attack from Corey Graves.

Summer Rae vs. Paige

Paige tosses Summer across the ring with her hair and Summer seeks the comfort of Sasha, who is at ringside. Sasha gets involved and he sends Sasha to the back. Summer uses a sweeping kick and knocks Paige off the apron and to the mat. Summer works on the leg for a bit, but Paige mounts a comeback and hits the Paige Turner out of nowhere. What is up with the quick matches tonight? After the match, Sasha comes back and attacks Paige. Emma comes down and makes the save, but then accidentally hits Paige with a right hand. Paige isn't happy as she heads to the back. 

Match Rating: *1/2

Tyler Breeze says he is going to send CJ Parker back to where he belongs. 

Luke Harper gets a promo ahead of his match with Kassius Ohno next week. We also will get Rusev vs. Lefort.

Tyler Breeze vs. CJ Parker

Parker hits a delayed vertical suplex and Breeze is in trouble early on. Parker misses in the corner and a seated Breeze pulls him down to a powerbomb-like fall for Parker. Breeze goes up top, but Parker slams him off the top. Parker tries to get a bunch of shots to the face, but Breeze does his best to block them. Parker hits him with a high kick and gets a 2 count. Meanwhile, the crowd chants "Let's go Breeze!". Breeze misses with the Beauty Shot and Parker hits a Third Eye and gets the surprising victory. Parker gets out the scissors after the match, but Breeze is able to roll out before he's able to cut any of his hair. This was a decent enough main event. 

Match Rating: **1/4

This show was a super quick episode that was entertaining, but lacked substance. With that being said, the show also featured three of the most entertaining characters they have and it made for a decent watch even if there was nothing worth going out of your way to see. 

Overall Rating: 58%
