Paige defeated Tamina Snuka

wwe extreme rules Highlights of the match:

Tamina is able to show off her strength by tossing Paige into the barricade. She tries to set up a samoan drop, but Paige hits a powerbomb off the ropes. Paige locks in her submission hold for the win.

Reaction:

It was a solid match in terms of wrestling. How many "Anti-Divas" do we need to have? I feel like Paige is one of many that has had this term attached to her. She is different, but I want more from her. Tamina is a good wrestler and that is it. There is no personality there. Maybe she does and WWE just does not let her use it.

Score: 5/10

Daniel Bryan defeated Kane

Highlights of the match:

Daniel Bryan and Kane start with chairs and kendo sticks. Bryan hits a Tornado DDT from the table to Kane. A Kendo Stick helps Bryan get the better of Kane. They head to the back and this match turns Extreme. Kane throws Daniel all around the backstage area. They end up heading into the parking lot. Bryan gets tossed onto a car and Kane just misses with a tank thrown to Bryan.

Daniel Bryan gets a steel pipe and knocks out Kane. He drags Kane with a fork lift and drives the fork lift to the ring. Bryan hits a flying headbutt and then hits multiple chair shots to Kane. Yes Lock with a Kendo Stick is locked in, but Kane drags himself to the outside. Kane reverses Bryan and hits a chokeslam through the table. A table with fire is lit, but Bryan sends Kane through it. He hits a running knee and picks up the win.

Reaction:

An Extreme match ends the night. Even though it was not my favorite match of the night, I enjoyed it. Creativity was the theme of the night. Bryan looked strong, while Kane was a steady veteran. Once again, the match was full of big spots. The forklift was a really interesting call and each spot they did made sense in terms of both characters. Fire representing hell was smart and it was really fun to watch. I think I like Bryan in a technical wrestling match over this kind of match. Either way, Kane vs. Bryan will continue. Is that the right thing to do?

Score: 7/10
