WWE House Show Results (7/30): Tallahassee, Florida

Yoshi Tatsu and Primo fought next.  Yoshi continues to disregard Vince McMahon’s rumored mandate by doling out Ric Flair chops on a nightly basis.  He and Primo work well in the ring together, and they put on a pretty tight match.  Tatsu won with a schoolboy rollup.

Winner:  Yoshi Tatsu

As soon as the bell rang, Chris Jericho sprinted in out of nowhere to deliver a Codebreaker to Tatsu.  He cut an entertaining promo in the ring, hitting the same talking points from Monday’s episode of Raw (he’ll take out the Nexus, then he’s coming for you, John Cena).  He engaged in a bit of preening before walking to the back, and the crowd was hot – it’s funny that Jericho can generate more heat without saying a word than 90% of the roster can with a mic and a talk show segment.  If we truly are nearing the end of his run with the WWE, there’s going to be a huge void to fill on the heel side.

William Regal and Goldust faced off next, and I was the only person in Tallahassee excited about this matchup.  It’s been so long since I’ve seen either one of these guys win a match that I can’t remember their current finishing moves.  I was hoping they’d break out Shattered Dreams or The Regal Stretch for old times’ sake.  Alas, it wasn’t meant to be:  after Regal missed a running kick (that looked suspiciously like an attempt at a Punt), Goldust lamely rolled him up with the schoolboy.  Clean pin.

Winner:  Goldust
