1. That Main Event And The Outcome

The Usos were always winning those Undisputed Tag belts, weren't they? Sure, it would've been nice to see RK-Bro get the nod when they've gelled so well, but WWE wanted to furnish The Bloodline with more gold and sell Roman Reigns-led dominance for a while longer.

Besides, SmackDown's main event was excellent.

One gets the sense that these teams can do even better, and they probs will do at HIAC. Whilst they weren't exactly holding back here, The Usos, Randy Orton and Riddle didn't do everything they're capable of during this TV classic either. That, ladies and gents, is just how good they all are as workers.

Post-match, Reigns got his licks in to avenge cheeky comments RK-Bro had made about him. That was appreciated as well, 'cause it's precisely the kind of thing a swaggering bastard like Roman would do. He put the boot in when Randy and Riddle were weakened. Why? He could.
