John Morrison and MxM continue to be a good pairing, heeling it up hard to get the rather cold audience to care about the match. Private Party kept it creative and stayed mobile to win. Bonus "paying attention" points to Zay for shouting out Johnny's "Ain't No Make Believe" WWE theme song on the way to deliver the final move.

Every time Wheeler Yuta shouts out Bryan Danielson in his shitty smug way, I hate him more. Which I suppose makes it easier to regard Hangman as the Stone-Cold-esque tweener the company wants him to be, down to the leg injury.

The lucha-libre themed hour of Rampage gets us another trios match full of flippy boys -- CMLL's vs. AEW's. Also the Hechicero appearance gives Excalibur a chance to rib Matt Menard over his loss to the man, plus a shout-out to Bob Uecker in Major League II.
