Rating: *½
Summary: Without the tag formula, this would have been a mess. As it is, it was very disjointed, thus the hot tag wasn’t as sizzling as it could have been. Nevertheless, we have a clean finish in the main event.

Promo #7 airs for the PPV.
Conclusion: This episode concludes the taping at Universal Studios as the next set of tapings emanate from New York City again. If only to stop the incessant hype, I cannot wait for the PPV. Can you?
