Otis then does sloppy lariats on both. Otis corner splashes BC. Otis does the caterpillar elbow on BC. Akira topes JC. Akira top rope sentons BC and wins.

Thoughts: We've seen this match a bunch of times. It's always solid and this was no exception. Akira got beat up as usual, Otis got the hot tag in and they picked the win up from there. 

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches as usual. I liked the tag match but it was similar to the others they have done. Kross/Lee was far from either guy's best work and it wasn't that good. You don't need to see this one but it will only take you 14 minutes to watch all the new content.
