As Corey Graves aptly put it during the NXT main-event on Wednesday, the Revival are the best tag team in the world; as such, any opportunity to see them wrestle in a high stakes situation is must-see. Dash and Dawson did not disappoint in their opening round victory in the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic, offering the latest example of their kind of uniquely old school psychology - this time a tag outside of the ring that led to a momentary confusion between their opponents and the referee.

The Revival, simply put, are awesome.

Their opponents, Cedric Alexander and Andrade Almas, were an interesting pair; just two weeks ago, they competed against each other in a rapid fire NXT main-event, but walked away respectful of one another after the tease of further tension. They were on the same page this week and showed potential to be a very good tag team on a more regular basis.

Almas, in particular, has personality to spare and perhaps a permanent duo with the increasingly popular Alexander could give him a better opportunity to show it.
