Zack Ryder vs. Jack Swagger:
What I Liked:
Jack Swagger has the size advantage, the physicality, and the submission skills. Ryder has the intangables. I liked the Swagger ground and pound action, working his opponent in that specific way. Ryder looked good selling Swagger's offense. Ryder had a nice counter, and hits the Rough Ryder.
What I Disliked:
I want to see a match where Ryder hits more than a few moves, as I feel people are going to catch on. He has good offense, but he needs to evolve much more in the ring. He deserves the US Title due to his good ring skills, I just wish he had more time to control a match. The flow of the match was solid, no big miscommunications, and hit all the moves at a right point. The climax was not there, but it had a good ending. Nothing amazing here.
Grade: C+
Mick Foley comes out dressed as Santa. He speaks a little rhyme, and basically hypes tomorrow's special. A little funny, but basically a waste.
C.M. Punk is interviewed by Josh Matthews. Punk says Laurinitis can kiss his ass. He is quick, funny, and gets his point out.
