Reaction:

A decent match between Christian and Henry, giving their limitations. The Lumberjacks were only outside because of the fear they see in Henry. They wanted to make Henry look even more dominant. Christian did enough to keep the match at a decent pace, and continued to see the progression of the feud between him and Sheamus. This match was not anything wonderful, but was different than the usual one on one or tag team main event. This segment gets a C+. Hopefully we can get Christian vs. Sheamus at Hell in a Cell as well.

Overall Show Grade: B-
