There ppv match was pretty good so this could be fun. Hayes dancing around after every minor offensive victory early was good stuff and it is really amazing how great he was as a babyface too. Really just loved all this early stuff with Hayes punching Samu after a leapfrog attempt, stomping his face on an attempted drop down monkey flip, moonwalking to a massive pop, et. Hayes is even the star in the match when Cox is in the ring as his strutting around on the apron to get the crowd pumped, running in to crotch Samu as he tried to climb into the ring, et was all really engaging stuff that kept the match from grinding to a halt. Cox goes FIP after getting tripped off the ropes and then takes some nice quick bumps for big effect with Hayes once again working over time to keep the crowd involved. Cox gets fucking killed on a lariat for a near fall. Cool cut off spot with Cox avoiding another lariat and hitting the ropes only to get ripped down by his hair. Big problem with this match is that the SST work a nervehold as a base and while I am not totally averse to this it is not an option that is inspiring. Cox takes a nice double superkick, but Samu takes a big bump on a corner charge and Hayes gets the hot tag. Cool, Hayes hits a bulldog off the ropes! He goes for the pin but it's broken up with a diving headbutt and for some reason this gets thrown out. Post-match the teams brawl out of the building as the show goes off the air. This had a shit finish, but other than that I like it better than the ppv match and I liked the post-match brawl a good bit which puts it over the top as something worth considering.

This was from the Memphis tapings.
