WWE LIVE EVENT – “PREGAME PANDEMONIUM”
FEBRUARY 4, 2018
OMAHA, NEB.
REPORT BY ONTONIO PAYNE, PWTORCH CORRESPONDENT

(1) Finn Balor defeated Bo Dallas via Coup de Grace in 8:00. Good opener.

(2) The Revival defeated Titus World Wide (Titus O’Neal & Apollo Crews) when Dash Wilder pinned Titus with his feet on the ropes in 10:00. Good match.

(3) Goldust defeated Curt Hawkins in 2:00.

-After the match, Hawkins said we were supposed to see him break his historic losing streak which led to another match.

(4) Braun Strauman defeated Curt Hawkins in 30 seconds. Huge pop for Strauman. Big boot, corner charge, and powerslam was the whole match.

(5) Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows defeated Heath Slater & Rhyno in 3:00. Boring match.

(6) Matt Hardy defeated Bray Wyatt in 10:00. Average match with comedy and stalling to start. Hardy is not over, “Delete” is not over.

Intermission

(7) Cedric Alexander defeated Jack Gallagher via lumbar check in 5:00. Fun, but basic match with no flying.

(8) Asuka & Bayley defeated Nia Jax and Bliss in 5:00. Asuka won with the arm bar on Bliss. Good match but short.

-Elias sang for cheap heat. He’s getting good on the guitar and got a positive reaction until he turned on the crowd.

(9) Roman Reigns & Seth Rollins defeated Elias & The Bar when Reigns pinned Cesaro in 12:00. Elias and Caesaro worked most of the match. Sheamus was on some offense but took only one bump for an enzigiri. Reigns pinned Ceasaro with the spear after a hot tag from Rollins. Good match.

Biggest Pop: Reigns
Most Heat: Elias

Best Match: Main Event
Worst match: Anderson & Gallows vs. Slater & Rhyno
