#1 Contenders Match for WWE Tag Team Titles: Primetime Players vs The Ascension vs Lucha Dragons
Result: Primetime Players win when Titus O’Neill pins Viktor (Pumphandle Slam)
Rating: 2.75 stars out of 5 stars
Sin Cara and Darren Young start off the match. New Day are shown watching the match from the back. Lucha Dragons get the upper hand early, and the Ascension go to the outside and get hit with dives by the Lucha Dragons as we go to break.
Back from break and the Ascension are dominating Kaliso. Young breaks up a pin attempt by the Ascension. Titus gets the hot tag and runs over the Ascension with some serious strength. Sin Cara broke up a pin attempt by O’Neill with a senton. Titus throws Kalisto into Konnor to knock him over the ropes. O’Neill gets Viktor with the pumphandle slam for a three count. Number one contenders: Primetime Players.
PTP deserve a title run. While I’m not sure they”ll get it yet, it is exciting that they are feuding with New Day.
New Day Interview
New Day are interviewed backstage by Renee Young. They talk about their three step plan for Money in the Bank. One, beat the Primetime Players and dispose of their “greedy” ways. Two, chant along with the WWE Universe as they say New Day Rocks. Three, Kofi will walk into Money in the Bank and win the briefcase. They’re interrupted by Kane who tells Kofi he has a match tonight against Neville. New Day might be my favourite act on the roster currently. Just so entertaining as heels.
