Sami Zayn & Kevin Owens (c) Vs Finn Balor & Damien Priest

The Judgement day have of sorts decided to take the WWE by storm. Their one sided domination over the entire roster is a thing that Rookies should take note of.

Winners – Finn Balor And Damian Priest

Rhea Ripley Vs Raquel Rodriguez

The much talked about match between Mami and Raquel Rodriguez lived up to the hype. After all the smack that was spoken, Mami had to come back and answer strong; and she did. Again as expected, Dominik Mysterio had a major role to play as he distracted Raquel Rodriguez only for Mami to hit the finisher for the pin fall.

Winner– Rhea Ripley

Seth Rollins (c) Vs Shinsuke Nakamura

Now to the big one. A match where the challenger almost destroyed the Champion with vicious kicks, Shinsuke Nakamura looked well prepared to see himself as the champion. But Seth Rollins hit the Stomp after a few pin attempts from both competitors. It will be a long walk home for Nakamura who talked a big game but couldn’t back it up.

Winner: Seth Rollins
