2 Ups & 7 Downs From WWE SmackDown (Jan 21)

1. The Main Event’s Action

Yes, the DQ finish to that main event tag sucked, but there's already been a hefty whinge about that. On the plus side, The Usos know their way around tag-team wrestling better than most, and the Kevin Owens/Seth Rollins combo has some chemistry WWE should keep exploring (maybe over on Raw though).

These guys were having a hot match until the ending slowed their roll.

Despite blatantly being the closest this bout had to an odd man out, KO brought some much-needed energy to the equation. His erratic offence always get a rise out of live crowds, and The Usos bumped around nicely for all of his comeback spots like you'd expect.

Granted, individual tolerance for the disqualification will differ too. Regardless of that, the main meat of this match is worth checking out if you're a fan of all-action tags involving workers who could've been forgiven for sleepwalking through. They didn't, and that's a real credit to everyone.
