I've never seen two guys trade holds so well yet be completely boring with it. Santana's leg is taped up after his first match and it becomes a massive factor when Orndorff atomic drops him to escape a headlock and Santana rolls around the mat in agony. Orndorff lands a drop toehold and starts wrenching on his damaged leg. This was when I noticed that that the crowd were starting to chant 'boring'. After Orndorff refuses to break up a grapple cleanly, the two brawl out outside the ring and get counted out. While I'm glad that their holds looked snug, Santana's selling was good and they crafted an interesting story for a face vs face match, I can't lie and say this was good as it was deathly boring. Too much downtime.
