Result: Styles destroys Ricochet with a Styles Clash counter to retain the strap (13:00).

Rating: This was a solid improvement over their Extreme Rules match, though while it was gingerly the Match of the Night, it's still clear that these two aren't hitting the high, high gear they're evidently capable of.

Even so, Ricochet was as slick as ever, with the stepping stones spot on Gallows and Anderson once again proving how wonderfully creative a performer he is.

The general lack of interference shenanigans was refreshing given that these two men definitely don't need that, and even though he lost, Ricochet looked like a champ regardless.

The finish was smooth and clever, and though this was far from the five-star banger we know they're capable of, it was fast-paced, physical and a whole lotta fun. 7/10
