The stage side was tarped off as well as one of the upper decks, I would say between 8,000 and 10,000 people there. Lots of families in attendance, but also the &#8220;hardcore&#8221; fan was aplenty.<\/p>\n<p>Merch stand was John Cena and Roman Reigns heavy, but a decent selection of other Smackdown wrestlers. Lots of people wearing KO shirts with the kids in Cena or Roman merch.<\/p>\n<p>(1)\u00a0Shinsuke Nakamura\u00a0beat\u00a0Dolph Ziggler.\u00a0Great reaction for Shinsuke! Typical 15 minute house show match with Nakamura going over with the knee strike.<\/p>\n<p>(2) Tye Dillinger &amp; Breezango beat The Ascension &amp; Aiden English in 7:00. No reaction for the heels, but Tye was over and won the match.<\/p>\n<p>(3) Luke Harper beat Erik Rowan in 10:00.\u00a0Too slowly paced for my taste, but Rowan did well generating heat.<\/p>\n<p>(4) Naomi &amp; Becky Lynch &amp; Charlotte beat Carmella &amp; Superfly Snuka &amp; Natalya.\u00a0Charlotte got\u00a0the &#8220;star reaction.&#8221; I was surprised that Becky Lynch did\u00a0not receive a big a pop. Natayla tried hard, but her teammates were\u00a0not in the same league work-wise. Poor showing from the heels.<\/p>\n<p>(5) Kevin Owens beat Sami Zayn to retain the U.S. Title.\u00a0Owens is the complete wrestler. He generated the most heat all night with his work in and out of the ring. The crowd was invested in this match as you would expect with Owens going over clean with the Pop-up Powerbomb. Owens did some heel mic work and Sami hit the Heliluva kick to send the crowd\u00a0into the intermission happy.<\/p>\n<p>Intermission<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1235797704\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>(6) Pete Dunne &amp; Joseph Connors &amp; James Drake vs. Tyler Bate &amp; Trent Seven &amp; Sam Gredwell. Decent 10 minute match with all the usual shanningans at the end with the faces going over.<\/p>\n<p>(7) Baron Corbin pinned Mojo Rawley with the End of Days in 10:00.\u00a0Corbin received more of a babyface\u00a0reaction than Mojo\u00a0and went over clean with the end of days.<\/p>\n<p>(8) The Usos beat The Colons and American Alpha in 10:00 to retain the Smackdown Tag Team Titles.\u00a0Sad to see Alpha not get the pops they once did. They have been wasted! Boring match.<\/p>\n<p>(9) Randy Orton beat Jinder Mahal and A.J. Styles to retain the World Hvt. Title in 20:00.\u00a0Jinder did some mic work heeling on the crowd and got the right response. He is a lot bigger than it seems on TV\u00a0height-wise. Styles came\u00a0out next to the second biggest pop of the night. Then Orton came out to a good reaction. Jinder took out Styles to leave him and Orton to start the match. Good back-and-forth from all the guys and the biggest pop of the night came\u00a0from the RKO on Jinder to send the crowd home happy.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>NOW CHECK OUT THE PREVIOUS REPORT:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2017\/05\/07\/56-wwe-belfast-n-ireland-reigns-vs-strowman-balor-vs-wyatt-seth-vs-joe-neville-vs-aries-six-woman-tag-match\/\">5\/6 WWE in Belfast, N.
