#4: Heavy Machinery
The rise of big boys Otis Dozovic and Tucker Knight has been low key but steady. Their feud with Moss and Sabbatelli, which initiated after Dozovic tried to flip their Maserati (or something like that) continued on this week, as Heavy Machinery looked for some payback after being cheated out of a win last week
Dozovic and Knight have been improving by leaps and bounds, experimenting with various types of offense and gradually setting into a routine that suits their power and remarkable mobility. Being placed in a program and giving them something to do is just what they need to help the audience get into them and help establish their strengths. Definitely a step up.

#3: TM-61/The Mighty Don’t Kneel
It’s great to have Nick Miller and Shane Thorne back on television after Thorne’s nasty knee injury. Over the course of the past few weeks, they’ve been thrust right back into the spotlight of the division, finding themselves at the centerpiece of documentary-style career retrospectives and interview packages. A strong television showing against the Ealy Brothers last week reminded us all just how good this team is. After all, they had reached the finals of the 2016 Dusty Classic, losing to the Authors of Pain.
Obviously, WWE management has high hopes for them. I have high hopes that they might be going back to their original The Mighty Don’t Kneel monicker.
