3. At Least It Was Short

Jimmy Uso versus Austin Theory. On Monday Night Raw. Did they get confused and think they were booking Main Event… or Velocity?

There was no real need to pay off Jimmy’s backstage attack on Theory. He pummeled Austin and left him lying. That was good enough.

The match itself was short, but there was nothing to it. Both men threw a bunch of punches. Jimmy tossed up a few superkicks. And then Logan Paul ran in for the disqualification. This two-on-one attack brought out Jey Uso, who had crutches with him. They clotheslined Paul out and hit Theory with a 1D, thus further geekifying The Vision.

A sub-three-minute match with no substance, and the upshot is Jey Uso returned, so maybe they could defend their tag titles again this millennium. That’s not exactly a ringing endorsement.
