3. Jimmy Uso And Naomi vs. Aiden English And Lana
A recent development that has resulted in some entertaining TV has been the dynamic between The Usos and Naomi butting heads with Rusev, Aiden English, and Lana. It all started with a dance-off last week, but reached another level last night.
Jimmy Uso and Naomi teamed up last night to battle English and Lana without the services of Rusev, who was set for another match later in the night. This match seemed intriguing from the start and once the match got going, it lived up to those expectations with an entertaining and overall compelling match.
The action was quite good in most places and the tempo was very high towards the end, but in a mixed tag team match where men face men and women face women, Naomi’s top rope dive on English helped turn the match around. Jimmy took full advantage and ended up getting the pin on English to win the match alongside his wife.
This feud still feels like it has a lot of juice left, so hopefully the WWE goes forward with it. The match last night was solid enough with a lot of entertainment involved from time to time and the chemistry between these superstars has been impressive up to this point.
It might be Rusev Day or Lana Day, but last night was all about the married power couple that has been Texas since day one ish.
