– Follow all of my reviews at this link.

Tornado Tag Match: The Lucha House Party vs. The Singhs: Metalik & Dorado are in for the luchas tonight. The2y play to the crowd and brawl, spilling to the floor.

The V driver and ropewalk elbow and shooting star press finish it. The Lucha House Party defeated The Singhs @ 10:58 via pin [***] This was good but was all Lucha House Party as the Singhs continue to fail to impress overall with their limited heel act and limited in ring contributions.

– We get a Humberto Carroillo video package.

– Mike Kanellis is interviewed and is asked about his match last night on Raw and Maria’s pregnancy announcement. He’s asked about his emotional state and where is Maria. Mike talks about the emotional roller coaster but he is here on the orders of Drake Maverick. Maria will not be at ringside because they are not talking. It should have been the greatest moment of his life, but she told him in front of everyone that she was surprised he could get her pregnant. She called him a disappointment. Mike is disappointed in Drake because Drake has kept him from the Cruiserweight Title and he should be celebrating with his happy wife, instead Drake is celebrating somewhere with his happy wife. Drake will pay for what he did to his family, and Mike will prove to his wife that he really is man enough when he wins his match tonight.

They lock up and work into counters, and Mike follows with a shoulder tackle.
