WWE SmackDown Review:
Chris Sabin got things started by punching JC Mateo’s ticket to the back, giving his team the early edge. Tama Tonga stepped in and dumped Shinsuke Nakamura to even things up. Rey Fenix fired back with an elimination on Tanga Loa, but the celebration was short-lived. Talla Tonga bulldozed through the momentum shift, taking out both Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin in one swift swing of control.
Tama Tonga added to the chaos by eliminating Rey Fenix, leaving Sami Zayn as the lone hope on his side. Zayn fought back, catching Tama Tonga and sending him packing to keep his team alive. Talla Tonga wasn’t far behind, getting taken out next and bringing us to the final stretch. Solo Sikoa drops Zayn to stand tall as the sole survivor.
Winners- The MFTs
After the match, the lights dimmed, and The Wyatt Sicks surrounded the ring, closing in on Sikoa. Uncle Howdy stepped forward and dropped Solo with a Sister Abigail.
Grade: C+
