Though the pensioner parodies of Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage didn't belong anywhere near the main card, fellow kickoff residents Skip, Zip and Sunny should have been a far bigger part of the night's proceedings rather than merely occupying the closing moments of the 'Free-For-All'.
The Bodydonnas scored victory over The Godwinns to claim the vacant Tag Team Championships in decent clash whilst Sunny again highlighted how she was a cut above almost every other talker on the roster, but - due predominantly to its positioning on the show - none of it helped pull the division out of its months-long slump.
'The Golden Haired Fox' was the story here - as she would be with the belts for most of the year - distracting Phineas Godwinn gifter her side the win shortly before she sidled up to the pig farmers en route to a longer stint with The Smoking Gunns.
