Who Is Ready For Asuka?

Pretty much the entire Raw Women’s Division is buttering up Kurt Angle to be Asuka’s sacrificial lamb at TLC in two weeks. Alicia Fox is also mad about not having a T-shirt after 10 years, and she’s mad at Emma for bailing on her in last week’s tag match. Angle does the reasonable thing and just makes all five women fight it out in the ring later tonight for the chance to lose to Asuka.

Cedric Alexander & Mustafa Ali) vs. Jack Gallagher & The Brian Kendrick

Result: Jack Gallagher and The Brian Kendrick defeated Cedric Alexander & Mustafa Ali via pinfall

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars

The only real negative about this match? It was way too short. Four great cruiserweight competitors in a tag match, and the whole segment lasts, what, five or six minutes? If that?

Because the match is so short, it never had a chance to get going. Aside from some enzugiris and dropkicks, there was next to no aerial offense. So somewhere backstage, I know Drew Gulak was happy with this one.

But after some solid action in the ring, Kendrick would eventually pick up a victory for his team with Sliced Bread #2. If you blinked, you probably missed this one. All four guys will be out later to be lumberjacks for the Cruiserweight Championship match, but they should get some time for their own match.
