Pre-Show Match for the WWE Tag Team Championship: The Usos (c) vs. Los Matadores vs. The Real Americans vs. Ryback/Curtis Axel
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpoZFEphkbY This should be a wildly exciting pres-show kick-off and a physical display of one-upmanship. In the spirit of their father/uncle and new WWE Hall of Famer Carlos Colon, and great Puerto Rican tag teams like the Super Medics, Los Matadores will showcase their grace and natural abilities in the ring early on with arm drags, diving cross bodies, and hurricanranas. And while The Real Americans will get some early offense in as well on the Usos, it will be Ryback and Curtis Axel who dominate much of the match, before Jimmy Uso finally makes the hot tag to Jay who delivers a full-on assault to everyone in the ring and on the ring apron. The rules state anyone can tag anyone in, so look for some confusion between The Real Americans, who have been at odds on numerous occasions in recent months. The Usos have a ton of momentum going into this one, and along with Los Matadores, is one of the most cohesive and entertaining tag teams to watch. And while Cesaro's giant swing will be the highlight of the match, perhaps on El Torito, the Usos will weaken the Real Americans with those vicious kicks to the head and chest before nailing Cesaro with a Samoan Drop. Mayhem ensues as Jimmy ascends to the top rope to deliver a Superfly Splash on Cesaro for the pin, as Swagger and Zeb Colter walk away leaving Cesaro flat on his back, alone in the centre of the ring. Winners: The Usos
