MATCH THOUGHTS: This was a good match and I like that this story-line is simple. Simplicity always works best, and Tyson plays the perfect jerk. This sort of reminds me of Savage and Elizabeth and that’s not a bad thing. Tyson is a bit underrated anyway, so it is nice to see him pick up a victory for once. I only wish this match got more time, since it is fresh matchup.

Tyson celebrates his victory, but mostly ignores Natalya. Natalya walks to the back, and Tyson just continues to celebrate.

OFFICIAL RESULT: Brie Bella @ 4:00 via pinfall
MATCH THOUGHTS: This match was very disjointed mostly because of Layla. I think the match could have used more of Summer Rae with Brie instead of Layla and Brie which dominated the match. Nevertheless, it wasn’t anything offensive and I only saw a few botches. A typical diva match, but not sure I would have the Summer and Layla team loss to Brie. Either way, the match was neither good nor bad.

OFFICIAL RESULT: Bo Dallas @ 2:00 via DQ
MATCH THOUGHTS: This was the result I expected, but since Bo is a heel it works fine. Bo can gloat about both victories. I also have to commend Bo’s selling throughout the match. Not the best main event for the show, but it was entertaining if nothing else.

Henry hits Bo with the world’s strongest slam after the match. Henry hits it a second time. Henry says you best believe him, because that is what he does.

FINAL THOUGHTS: This was another good edition of Main Event and all the matches were decent to good except the divas match. It was also nice to see Tyson Kidd on the program for once. Everything had a purpose and it was a wrestling heavy show, which is always welcome. Nonetheless, thanks to everyone who read the report.
