10 Amazing (But Forgotten) WWE Pre-Show Matches You Need To See

10. The Usos Vs The Shield (Money In The Bank 2013)

Unfairly stuck as perennial Kickoff Show favourites thanks as much to their persistence in the tag team division as much as anything else for several years now, The Usos have routinely delivered in matches missed by millions.

And as almost a demotion for Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns at the time such was the rampant progress of The Shield in the first six months on the main roster, the quartet of robustly talented stars were determined to try and steal the show before the show.

Despite being infuriatingly broken up by advertisement breaks as these events so often are, the four assembled what effectively amounted to be a riveting television clash with the hope of restoring some lustre to the long abandoned tag team titles.

A rare-for-WWE Tower Of Doom spot highlighted just this, with all four drawing monstrous responses from the notoriously hard-to-please Philadelphia crowd.

Rollins and Reigns were so protected at the time too, drawing further tension for every nearfall late in the game. After The Usos used the steel stairs to subdue Reigns, Jimmy looked to have it won with a superkick and splash, but 'The Big Dog' just barely made the save.

A last gasp effort from Jey failed, leaving him exposed to a wicked combo attack from the Champions. Seth's buckle bomb flowed beautifully into Reigns' spear, ensuring the 'Hounds Of Justice' kept control of the yard.
