Match#1
Stardust & Goldust vs Rybaxel.
Great opener for the show. Stardust and Goldust were way over with the live crowd and Stardust in particular seems to be really embracing his current role in the company. (He jumped into the crowd and hugged a fan that Rybaxel pointed to.) The former Rhodes brothers won the match when Stardust planted Curtis Axel with his new DDT finisher. (Sidenote: Cody Rhodes is a unique performer. He has completely changed his move set since the change to Stardust.)
Match#2
Paige vs Natalya
Good pop for Paige and a great pop for Natalya. Excellent women's match that had a lot of technical wrestling. Natalya ended up winning the match with the Sharpshooter. (Sidenote: Natalya thanked the crowd and said she will always be from Canada. Natalya always met with many fans around the ring including those with special needs. Natalya even took pictures with them. Classy gesture.)
Match#3
Fandango vs Dolph Ziggler
Fandango and Layla made their entrance and "Fandangoing" happened in the crowd. Dolph Ziggler came out to a massive pop and maybe one of the loudest of the night. Dolph and Fandango had an excellent match that could be a regular match on television on any given night. Ziggler defeated Fandango with the Zig Zag. (Sidenote: Ziggler was massively over with the crowd and the crowd took to him with every move. Fandango was fantastic as well with unique moves and some hilarious dancing spots.)
Match#4
Fandango vs The Great Khali
After Fandango lost to Ziggler he took the microphone and challenged anyone. The Great Khali came out and finished Fandango quickly with a Big Chop. (Sidenote: Khali was moving very slow to the ring but did a good job with what he did. Good pop for Khali.)
Match#5
The Great Khali vs Rusev
After Khali defeated Fandango, Rusev came out to destroy Khali and did just that. Rusev and Lana had the most heat on the show with Lana cutting a promo after the match, praising Vladimir Putin. (Sidenote: Lana really is a great promo and incites the crowd better than most on the WWE roster. Rusev looked impressive here, even against the slower Khali.)
Match#6
The Uso's vs Rowan/Harper
The Uso's tried to do their Samoan War Dance when Rowan/Harper attacked them from behind. The Uso's used a lot of exciting aerial moves and sidekicks while also taking a beating from the power game of Rowan/Harper. The Uso's snuck out a win near the end of the match with a roll-up. (Sidenote: Rowan/Harper looked great in this match and dominated most of it. The Uso's kept the crowd in with good aerial moves and kicks.)
Match#7
R-Truth vs The Miz
By far the worst match of the evening. The Miz was portraying his new Hollywood character to a marginal response. Both guys tried, but this match wasn't very good and the crowd wasn't very into it either. R-Truth with the win here. (Sidenote: The Miz used the gimmick of how he could not be hit in the face during the match as Hollywood needs his "money maker".)
Match#8
Cesaro vs Kofi Kingston
Cesaro is way over with the crowd and had another excellent match with Kofi Kingston. Kofi was playing the angle from last Monday's Raw where he was hurt by Cesaro. (He even worse tensor wrap.) Cesaro exposed the tensor wrap and defeated Kofi with the Neutralizer. (Sidenote: Excellent match. Cesaro used impressive power moves and Kofi sold them all and also threw in high flying moves to keep the match exciting.)
Match#9
Bray Wyatt vs Roman Reigns
Both guys were super over in Windsor. Bray Wyatt made his entrance with his "family". (A mistake on the video had him calling out to "Atlantic City".) The WFCU Centre also had their cell phone lights on for his entrance. Roman Reigns came through the crowd close to our location to a massive pop. Both guys had an excellent match, which was billed as a "Windsor Street Fight". Many false finishes including interference from Harper/Rowan and the Uso's. The match ended with Roman Reigns spearing Wyatt through a table in the corner.
