It wasn’t bad, but nobody will be talking about it by tomorrow. It felt like a filler match in a larger feud because that was exactly what it was. The numbers game played a big part in keeping The All Mighty on defense, but they did a good job making it look like he was always a moment away from making a comeback.Įverything the three guys in the ring did was fine, but nothing stood out about this. This had the usual pace of a handicap match. Once Theory provided a distraction, Gable took the opportunity to take Lashley out with a senton from the apron before Otis hit his own senton to flatten him some more. Otis started in the ring while Gable sat on the apron. Theory served as the special guest enforcer.
Ricochet had the best spot in the match when he used one of the ladders at ringside to eliminate T-Bar.Īfter a long promo from Cena that neither confirmed nor denied any future bouts he may have, it was time for a handicap match between Bobby Lashley and the team of Otis and Chad Gable.The fact that Styles, Ricochet, Ziggler and Shelton Benjamin had to fight for one of the last spots is kind of sad because all of those guys should be in the men’s MITB match already.Jinder Mahal eliminating Shanky was yet another nail in the coffin of their team.WWE clearly wanted this night to feel like it meant something to his career. Cena was shown shaking a lot of hands before the show began as he arrived at the arena.The Original Bro and The A-Lister fought until Riddle hit an RKO on the apron to take out The Miz and claim the win. It all came down to AJ Styles and Riddle before The Miz revealed his injured leg was a ruse and eliminated The Phenomenal One. Sometimes, it just needs to be good to keep the story moving along. It was good but not memorable, which is fine because we don’t need every match to be the best thing ever. However, this was no different than any other random Battle Royal we have seen. This match included some skilled veterans, so it had plenty of fun moments and decent action. The rest of the eliminations were spaced out over several minutes, so it never felt like we were seeing multiple people thrown out at the same time in a way that was difficult to follow.īattle Royals can be so tricky, especially when everyone starts in the ring at the same time instead of coming out one by one like the Royal Rumble. Riddle, Rey and Dominik Mysterio, Shinsuke Nakamura and Dolph Ziggler competed alongside the likes of T-Bar and Shanky.Īkira Tozawa was the first elimination after about a minute. We saw stars from the top of the card to the bottom. The first match of the night was a Last Chance Money in the Bank qualifier Battle Royal that included a few dozen Superstars fighting for their chance to compete at Saturday’s PPV.
