I am surprised this thread hasn't been made yet, I know it wasn't the best PPV ever but this was certainly a fantastic match. Those 5 (and Dust) are the future, no doubt about it. Balls to the wall action. The dives, suplex to the outside, that finish. I could watch Rollins sell Cross Rhodes forever, the way he jumps and lands make it both look beautiful and deadly. Just brilliant stuff Come on guy we need to at least discuss one positive from last night!!   |

Goldust is probably having one of the best career renaissances in the history of the company. Every time he's shown up, he's had the working boots on and he's having some career-best matches.

When Uso hit that crazy Samoan Drop I was already for them to win the Tag Titles.
I dunno - I wasn't too sold on the Rhodes Brotherhood at first, but after HiaC I'm a little more on board. I think them being associated with the Authority storyline hampered their appeal. HHH's story turns people's charisma to stone for some reason, but now that they're just wrestling as the tag champions it works better for me.
Though Cody needs to wear just a little bit of the Gold/black makeup. Just a touch so they look like a more unified tag team.

I think what was great about the match was that even though beforehand it seemed like your typical 'champs retain after just winning the belts' midcard PPV title match, it was booked so that all three teams could've won it at any particular stage. I genuinely thought the Uso's had it won after that Samoan Drop.
The fact that it nearly went 20 minutes didn't harm it either.

It's not even his first renaissance either. The 2002-03 run put shine back on the gimmick after he drifted into insignifance in 1999. And IIRC that Superstars match with Jericho back from his '08 run I remember almost nothing about is still held in high regard by many (esp. Jericho). |

Very obvious that the outside Superplex spot came from someone watching a recent PWG show.
At 3:37

I thought only having two in at a time hurt it in the beginning because the Usos did a lot of standing around, once they got involved it was great. I'd love it if they let these three and the Real Americans have a TLC.

The tag team division is the best thing going on in WWE today. And you're surprised this match was good? Rollins was in it. Of course it was going to be good.  |

The shield have been carrying shows for quite a while with their matches now.
Not because they're better workers than other people, but just because of their great booking allowing people to get invested in their matches at any time.
They're in a great spot where they have enough vulnerability that you're not just bored watching them win over and over, but strong enough that you're vested in the outcome of their matches at any time.
It's a lot like how HBK was booked later in his career.

Very obvious that the outside Superplex spot came from someone watching a recent PWG show. At 3:37 That superplex has been done multiple times in WWE, let alone wrestling. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3J9DClJGyk -- Even on Superstars. |

What an amazing match. We're witnessing something special with these guys - and we've still got the Real Americans and The Bull Fighters to add to the equation. I hope the division continues to get the push because they're the highlight of the show.
Special mention to Goldust - what a resurgence.

Just because something happened in PWG doesn't mean it's happened elsewhere. |

You never know. Same exact show that William Regal attended. Plus, they bring it back now?
By the way, it's also Trent doing the spot in PWG.
