Neville and Cesaro vs. King Barrett and Sheamus

Result: King Barrett and Sheamus defeat Neville and Cesaro via pinfall.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars

Stardust and The Ascension were in the crowd, and Stardust held up a sign that read “Stardust Section.” Clearly this was directed at Cesaro.

Neville and Barrett started the match, with Neville using his speed early on to land his trademark kicks on Barrett.

Sheamus made the blind tag and attempted to reverse hurricarana from Neville, but Neville managed to power through and toss Sheamus out of the ring. King Barrett was thrown out too, and then we saw some teamwork as Cesaro launched Neville over the rope and onto their opponents.

Cesaro took a moment to taunt Stardust until Neville and Sheamus entered the ring again. Neville hit a flying crossbody, and we went to commercial.

After the break, Barrett beat on Neville in the middle of the ring. Barrett and Sheamus took turns attacking with Neville, and Sheamus hit an impressive suplex before Barrett tagged in again.

Neville reversed several of Barrett’s attacks, allowing him to reach Cesaro for the hot tag. Barrett tagged in Sheamus as well. Cesaro landed about two-minutes worth of uppercuts on Sheamus before nailing a dropkick. He was all over the ring and outside of it, beating on both Sheamus and Barrett.

Cesaro went for the Cesaro Swing on Sheamus, but Sheamus crawled to the ropes to break the hold. Sheamus attempted to hit Cesaro with his Money in the Bank briefcase, but Cesaro caught Sheamus in the Swing again. While the ref was removing the briefcase, Barrett snuck in and Bullhammered Cesaro.

Sheamus covered him for the pin and the victory.
