Post match, the faces celebrated in the ring…The “Ask a Diva” segment aired…Shaemus was shown backstage, heading towards the ring. His match is next…[C] Shore’s Slant: This show is starting out a lot like last week. There was nothing wrong with this match, but it bored me. Most of it is seeing some form of this match every week for the last 300 weeks because there are no other tag teams for them to work with. The other half is it served no purpose other than to get these guys on TV. Shad looks no better for the win and Kidd lost nothing here either. It just bored me. Hopefully Shaemus can help me out. Jesus does that guy need a tan. I heard he glows purple in black light. I’m just sayin’. Back from commercial, Shaemus made his entrance as Josh Matthews and Matt Striker took over on the mics. Tyler Reks was out next. Damn… 2. Shaemus defeated Tyler Reks 4:30. How many times have we seen this match? Reks took quick control and Shaemus rolled to the floor to regroup. Reks let him in clean and Shaemus kicked him in the gut to take control. Shaemus worked the stomach with strikes and gut busters before locking in a rest hold. Reks escaped and hit several chops. He pandered to the crowd and the four people not in the bathroom/concession line cheered. He charged at Shaemus, but Shaemus hit a pump kick for the win…The announced team hyped the main event… Shore’s Slant: Now that match sucked. It was just sloppy and boring and…well, ugh. I wish I had more to say, but it was just bad. Not spectacularly bad, just plain old I’ll forget about it in…what was I talking about? Will somebody please spray a tan on Shaemus? He looked green on my screen. Talking about being Irish to the core! [Q3][C]Back from commercial, Michael “Cole Slaw” and Jerry “The King” Lawler took over on commentary. They played a Randy Orton hype video, followed by a WWE title match hype video…The announce team hyped the WWE, World Heavyweight, and DX/Legacy HIAC matches at the PPV…The Miz made his ring entrance…[C] Back from commercial, Kofi Kingston made his ring entrance… [Q4]3.

Miz broke the hold, stood, and turned into the Trouble in Paradise. Kofi covered for the win. Post match, Jack Swagger ran out and laid out both men. He posed with the US Title to end the show… Shore’s Slant: OK, a fun match to close the show. Both men looked good here and Kofi looks very string going in to the PPV. I like the Swagger run in, as we rarely see storylines on the Thursday show. This match could steal the show at HIAC. I’m still not buying the show, but I might bill Jason for it anyway. An OK show that ended very well. Thanks for reading and I’ll see you tomorrow for the 10th Anniversary Smackdown show. Questions? Comments? Anyone, anyone? Let me hear from you.
