Raw Tag Team Championship Match
Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows (c) vs. Enzo Amore and Big Cass

Result: Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows defeat Enzo Amore and Big Cass via pinfall to retain the Raw Tag Team Championship.

Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Enzo Amore cut a strange promo before the start of this match. It never really connected besides the usual catchphrases from the Realest Guys in the Room. This has been the case for a while, if anything.

We had the usual stuff here from Amore, who took the brunt of the offense for about 10 minutes. It’s been this way for years, and a method that WWE doesn’t go away from. This isn’t the worst thing, but it’s not original anymore.

In this case, it somewhat worked because the crowd was fully invested in the Big Cass hot tag. It even looked like they had the win with the Rocket Launcher finisher, until Amore’s leg was pulled to mess up the pinfall.

With the finish, it sets up a likely rematch for the Raw Tag Team Championship. Maybe it happens at WrestleMania 33 with the match card still wide open. If not, there are still a handful of weeks to go that could fill some time on Raw.

Hi, Matt.
