3 Ups & 4 Downs From WWE SmackDown (June 30)
2. Routine But Bags Of Fun!
The opening Undisputed Tag-Team Title match wasn't phoned in by any means, but it definitely had a house show-esque air to it. Hey, that's not a problem. London was thrilled to see Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens wrestle, and Pretty Deadly more than held up their end of the bargain.
Those two Brits can be proud of their night's work here. It surely won't be the last time Kit Wilson and Elton Prince challenge for tag belts on the main roster. This bout was a top showing for them, and it proved to be a popular defence for KO and Sami. They received a thunderous pop for scoring the win.
Only a fool would argue against choosing this particular match as SmackDown's launch pad. It kicked Friday's show off on the front foot, and (better yet) showed WWE higher-ups that they've got something special in Pretty Deadly if they're careful.
Solid tag-team rasslin'.
