WWE Raw: 10 Things You Might Have Missed (May 16)

8. A Jobber By Any Other Name

After a month and a half of vignettes, Primo and Epico finally made their Raw debuts... for the third time. Both men competed as Los Matadores and before that, as Primo and Epico, winning the WWE Tag Team Titles. No mention was made of their pasts in WWE, and they scored a quick squash win over their opponents, Scott Jackson and Brian Kennedy.

The eagle-eyed viewer, however, surely noticed that Primo and Epico weren't the only repackaged competitors in the bout. Scott Jackson and Brian Kennedy are also known as John Skyler and Corey Hollis, the very same team who took on American Alpha on last week's NXT broadcast. As you might imagine, that didn't go any better for them. They fell quick victim to the Grand Amplitude, serving only as a way for Jason Jordan and Chad Gable to show off their skills.

Unfortunately, being a member of the Job Squad doesn't pay very well - at least not well enough to get multiple sets of wrestling gear. "Scott Jackson's" trunks still read "Skyler" on the back, while "Brian Kennedy's" had the initials "CH" on the front.
