Thunder down under is clever. This is a neat match with Rey getting killed for five minutes and then mounting a fun comeback for a few moments before getting squashed for good. It accomplished the goal of making Steiner look brutal and Rey retained great sympathy from the crowd. Samoan Drop from the top rope looked brutal leading into Steiner Recliner. **

A knee to the mid-section takes the wind out of Rey before Steiner repeatedly military presses him, dropping him chest first to the mat from up high.  He throws him to the outside where Scotty whips him hard into the metal guard rail.  Back inside Rey ducks under a clothesline and staggers ‘Big Poppa Pump’ with a dropkick only to then run into a lariat.  Steiner again goes to throw Rey to the floor, however this time Rey grabs hold of the top rope.  Unaware he does push ups in the ring, continuing to show disregard to his opponent, and Rey with a springboard leg drop to the back of the neck.  Headscissors take down, quesadora bulldog and Rey with some push ups of his own.  He heads up top but Steiner catches him mid-air and launches him overhead.  Samoan drop off the middle and BPP picks up the win with the ‘recliner’.

Exactly what is needed to be; Steiner over powering and throwing Rey around, his cockiness almost costing him things before finally putting Rey away.
