Better match than I was expecting here as Swagger continues to be fine when he isn’t talking or trying to be anything bigger than a power guy who can do some submission stuff. The Codebreaker is broken up with a powerslam but the gutwrench powerbomb is countered into the Walls for the tap out at 7:55. Jericho can’t get the Walls so it’s the enziguri instead. Some clotheslines have Jericho in trouble and the Vader Bomb gets two. Jack fights up and we get a CM PUNK chant for no logical reason. Jericho comes back by sending Swagger into the barricade for two and we hit the chinlock. The announcers run down Jericho’s career, talking about Baba and Tenryu in Japan because saying he’s a ten time Intercontinental Champion and main evented Wrestlemania would be going over most fans heads. The chase doesn’t go well for Chris as Swagger catches him back inside and hammers away in the corner. Jericho slaps him in the face to start and bails to the floor in a smart move.

At least they’re on fire now and it’s fun to watch. New Day is going to be a great act as faces but I’m not sure what kind of a shelf life they’ll have before they’ll told how to be funny and outgoing and the act dies as a result. Hopefully that’s it for this feud as I’m not really sure why they’re fighting other than New Day started talking about the League one day. in the head but Woods offers a distraction, allowing Kofi to get in a cheap shot so the Big Ending can put Barrett away at 8:38.

The SOS doesn’t get a count despite only existing to get near falls. off the apron but Kofi counters into a rollup for two. Everything breaks down and Kofi cleans house, only to have Trouble in Paradise countered into the Cloverleaf. Kofi comes back with a dropkick and the hot tag brings in Big E. Seriously?
