TJP and Brian Kendrick vs. Dan Moloney and Rich Swann

Result: TJP and Brian Kendrick defeated Dan Moloney and Rich Swann via pinfall.

Rating: 2.75 out of 5 stars

A big reaction for Moloney, who teamed with Rich Swann. Moloney is only 20-years-old, something that may not have been given a spotlight, with Bate taking all the headlines for his win at 19-years old. It made for three former WWE Cruiserweight Champions in this match — all of whom had reigns we wish went a little better.

This match had three former WWE Cruiserweight Champions in this match — all of whom had reigns we wish went a little better. Would any of them stand out?

TJP and Kendrick teaming is interesting, after all they went through toward the end of 2016. Heels, though, right?

TJP heard it from the crowd throughout the match, being called a variety of things. His character hasn’t been beloved by the WWE fans — face or heel — potentially due to the dab and video game references that have been all over his persona. The former drew a healthy amount of boos about midway through.

Kendrick got the inside cradle on Moloney for the win, ending a decent match. Not anything special that will blow anyone away, but it was another appetizer for later on.
