Star rating: (****¾) – Just an amazing match. These two went to war to settle their feud. While their previous match was based on boiling emotions, this match was just both guys trying to hurt each other. It was surprising to see how much risk they took in this match with ladders and tables getting involved. Rhodes took a big bump on a powerbomb over the top to the floor. The Young Bucks pleading with both men to tone things down really added to the drama here.
