Angle has a good line about the Kodak moment happening in a town with such ugly people. The pose tonight is pretty tame of all three just posing. The camera angle on the early springboard dropkick by Y2J looked awesome. Action only goes a few minutes but we see the heels gelling together well as a team and some traditional heel tactics. Match breaks down and Angle is able to sneak in and hit the Olympic Slam on Bubba for the pin. *3/4

This was fun. Angle, Edge, and Christian really make for a fun group. Jericho got to shine a little and I'll second that camera shot of his springboard dropkick looking very impressive.

 

Bubba Ray is a really good hot tag and ran through a lot of bruising stuff in really quick fashion. Finish was perfectly executed with Edge saving Christian leading directly to Angle stealing the win on Bubba. Good quick match, good booking. Good stuff.

 

**1/4

Kurt finds it ironic that the ‘Kodak moment’ originated in a town with such unattractive people, but for the benefit of those with flash photography, Edge says that they will give the fans a real Kodak moment for five seconds only. There’s an awful lot of hair flying when it’s Jericho and Edge in there! Y2J drops Edge with a flying forearm, hits a facebuster on Christian and takes out Angle on the apron with a springboard dropkick as he’s checking on Edge. Stiff clothesline by Kurt as ECK look to try and stop Jericho’s early momentum. Scoop powerslam from Christian for a two. Jericho fails to connect on a dropkick and Edge catapults him into the corner. Kurt telegraphs a backdrop and Y2J with a double underhook backbreaker. Missile dropkick from the middle and he’s finally able to make the hot tag. Bubba runs rough shot over everyone including a ‘Bubba cutter’ to Edge and a DDT on Angle where Christian is forced to break up the pin. The Dudleys signal for 3-D. but after they whip Christian into the ropes, Edge hooks his partner’s ankle and pulls him out the ring to safety. As D-Von chases after the two of them, Angle comes from behind and hits the ‘Olympic slam’ on Bubba for the three. Post-match after clearing the ring of Edge & Christian, Y2J puts Kurt in ‘the Walls’ before the Dudleys give him a 3-D through a table.

 

Bubba looked good here in his cameo after making the hot tag, although D-Von was anonymous for the whole match. Cool finish with Kurt hitting the ‘Olympic slam’ on Bubba.

As someone who had an ex from Rochester and spent some time there, I wholeheartedly endorse E&C's take on the city.

 

Interesting choice to have Jericho get the shine and take the heat, but given the limited time for the match, it's probably the best choice. Bubba takes a nice hot tag to lead into the finish. Fun little match.
