Ups…

7. Solid Match, Make It The Last

Once again, Damian Priest and Sheamus had a really solid, hard-hitting match that made the United States Champion look legit. Now, let’s separate the two of them and never have them wrestle again during Priest’s title reign.

The two battered each other in their no countout, no DQ match for the US title, which saw tables get broken, chairs used and kendo sticks swung. Priest overcame a White Noise off the apron through a table and some stiff shots, but he retaliated with his own sick kendo shots, finally shoving Sheamus through a table and hitting the Reckoning to retain his title.

Not much else to say here: good match, but please let’s not ever see it again. Enough is enough.
