Nick Aldis was shown telling Rhodes he will not be in the six-man tag match tonight due to orders from The Rock. When we went to the arena, McIntyre made his way out for his match against Jimmy.
Jimmy seemed to take the lead early and even scored a quick two-count with a crossbody from the top rope, but The Scottish Psychopath tossed him across the ring with a belly-to-belly suplex to turn the tide.
Big Jim began to make a comeback during the break, but he didn’t really begin building any momentum until the show was back from the commercial for a bit.
Jimmy ended up scoring what the announcers call an upset win when he turned a reverse Alabama slam into a victory roll for the pin. McIntyre continued to attack him after the bell.
This match had a couple of fun moments, but as a whole, it’s not going to be remembered by the time the show is over. The post-match attack was far more memorable than anything that happened between the bells.
Result: Uso defeated McIntyre
Notable Moments and Observations
—No replacement was named for Rhodes in the tag match by Aldis as of the time this occurred. It would have been good to advertise who would be taking Cody’s place.
—Drew has a great belly-to-belly because he actually throws people instead of relying on them to do a lot of the work jumping.
—Jimmy’s Spear needs a little work. He hits people with the wrong shoulder for how he is aligned with them.
