Sin Cara vs Damien Sandow

Sin tries 3 pins to start then DS rolls out to stall. DS boots him in the gut and wristlocks him. DS pulls him down by the mask twice. DS side headlocks him. Sin hits a dropkick then armdrags him into an armlock. Sin goes up and over then armdrags him into an armlock. DS stomps him in the corner. 

DS misses a corner charge. Sin throws him out and plancha's him off the top outside. We go to break and return. Sin forearms him fron the apron and slingshot swantons him for 2. Sin armlocks him. Sin armdrags him. Sin hits chops. Sin misses a springboard and DS running lariats him for 2. DS hits corner spears on him. DS waistlocks him. 

Sin sunset flips him for 2 then DS basement dropkicks him. DS russian legsweeps him then elbow drops him for 2. DS headbutts Sin in the back of the head. DS abdominal stretches him. Sin hiptosses him then handspring back elbows him. Sin springboard crossbodies him then headscissors him. Sin rolls him up into a pwoerbomb for 2. 

DS gets his knees up on Sin's top rope swanton. DS hits a half-nelson slam and wins.

Thoughts: It went a bit long and was only so-so. This is not the original Sin Cara but the second. He has a real lack of charisma, fire and doesn't play the face that well at all. 

Tamina vs Natalya

Nat side headlocks her. Tam kicks her in the leg. Nat rolls into a pin on her for 1. Tam blocks Nat's crucifix then Tam misses a butt drop. They trade forearms. Tam samoan drops her off a missed spinning lariat. Tam chokes her on the ropes.

Tam does a bad olmpic slam for 2. Nat is thrown down off a chinlock. Nat boots her off the ropes then double underhook suplexes her for 2. Nat backslides her for 2. Nat low dropkicks her. Nat gets a 2 count on her. Tam superkicks her and pins her.

Thoughts: It wasn't good. They piped in fake crowd noise and I think Tamina just wore her street clothes here. There was no build to the finish at all and it just wasn't that pretty of a match.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 matches her as usual along with various recaps. Neither match was that good and I would not recommend this.
