Commentary
Tyler: New Egypt actually worked pretty well in this match. Pharaoh worked well and is learning more in the ring and Lazarus looked about the best he has in the ring all year.
Jason: I really like Pharaoh as a heel, he should never turn face. The match was typical as a face in peril squash, but the ending was kinda bad with the Pedigree and the delayed pin.
Michael: Did Tommy forget how to run the ropes? I know he’s been out of action for a while, and his ring rust really showed tonight. Tonight we saw Lazarus probably throw the best punches of his life, plus Pharaoh has expanded his moveset. I really dug that Stump Puller. However, I feel this match went on for too long. They just kept the heat on Smallz for just too long and then when he made the hot tag Big Tony received two low blows in under a minute to just kill any moment from the hot tag. If they're going to build up the hot tag for that long they should at least give the faces some momentum. I had a hard time trying to get emotionally involved in this match.
Kevin: This match didn’t really work for me. Big and Smallz had some nice teamwork early but after that they were the faces in peril and didn’t really get the comeback. Lazarus’ punches has improved but they’re still rather weak in comparison to the rest of the roster. I thought this was the worst match of the night.
