Cesaro hugged New Day after the match since he’s a face just like them, while Sheamus celebrated with the titles. Kingston thought he was legal, went for a cover and Sheamus capitalized with a tight cover for the win. It looked like Sheamus was going to tag in Cesaro, but Cesaro jumped into the ring before the tag and Kingston dropped him with the Trouble in Paradise kick. I liked another near-fall spot where Big E hit his Big Ending finisher after a Woods kick to the face and it only got a two-count, even though it could have easily been the finish. The ref never saw the tap out, so it gave New Day another chance. They tried to do it again as Xavier Woods jumped on the apron while Kofi Kingston was tapping out to a Sharpshooter.
It was a fast-paced tag match with so many believable near-falls that drew the best reactions of the night.Ī common theme during a lot of New Day title defenses is that they would cheat to win matches, even though they have been faces since March. We don’t need somebody being worked on for 10 minutes just to build up the hot tag. It was only about 12 minutes long and four matches were longer, but they made the most of their time given, unlike the other bouts. There were times when they got up, but for the most part they didn’t seem to care about most of what was happening in the ring. The crowd was inconsistent for most of the night. 29, which will give us over one month to get hyped up about one of the most important shows over the year. The good thing is that the Royal Rumble takes place on Jan. We aren’t paying that much money for it since WWE Network is very affordable, but there’s so much WWE content out there now that it’s hard to get that excited for anything anymore.
WWE ROADBLOCK PITTSBURGH SERIES
I write about WWE for a living, yet here I am talking about a pay-per-view for the third time in the last month since there was Survivor Series on Nov. I think there was some fatigue going into the show in terms of the crowd reaction.
It was a night that saw two titles change hands, a women’s match that went over 30 minutes, best friends reunited, a shocking heel turn and a Pittsburgh crowd that didn’t seem too excited about any of it.
The last WWE pay-per-view of 2016 took place Sunday night as the Raw brand presented Roadblock: End of the Line.
