Result: Jey Uso lays out Fandango with a superkick to retain the titles (9:15).

Rating: It would've been foolish to expect a genuinely serious, competitive match here, but the comedy stuff played out surprisingly well, particularly the mop and "grandma". The commentary also added a lot to the fun factor, and say what you want about JBL, but he did some great work calling the mayhem ("Last time that happened to me, I paid for it!")

In terms of actual wrestling, it was totally forgettable, sure, but it had the good sense to wrap itself up just when it was about to outstay its welcome. It was more fun than an actual, decent match, but it did what it set out to, and sometimes that's enough 5/10
