Can we just give a positive plug for how well Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre work together in the ring? The two have tangled in tag and singles matches a few times the past couple months, and they’ve always had good encounters.

Monday, the two fought for a spot in WWE’s World Cup tournament, and they seesawed for a while, with a great moment when Rollins hit a superplex and went for his signature Falcon Arrow combo, only for McIntyre to hit a Falcon Arrow of his own. And just when it seemed like Dolph Ziggler’s interference would cost Rollins, Dean Ambrose returned to save the day, allowing Rollins to squeak out a countout win.

Sure, they could eventually enter overkill territory, but for now, we’ll continue to enjoy these matches between Drew and Seth.
