[2021-04-23-WWE-SmackDown] Daniel Bryan & Cesaro vs Seth Rollins & Jey Uso

[Edwin]

Heck of a lengthy opening TV tag match. This goes through 3 commercial breaks and is worked at a high pace. The first segment kicked off with a wild 4 man brawl and culminated with a a great save from Cesaro after the big buckle bomb and big splash from Jey. The second segment was more of a heel beatdown and FIP segment from Bryan with some nasty offense from Jey including a nasty kick to the liver and a great cutoff with a big Samoan drop catching a desperate leaping Bryan. Loved the double collision cross body leading to the hot tag (instead of a one man comeback leading to the cold tag). Cesaro's apron work isn't particularly remarkable (kind of hard to pull that off with no live audience) but he comes in like a house on a fire and wrecks havoc with some nasty European uppercuts. The Jey cutoff super kick counter from the dive was a neat way to cut to another break and the finishing run being fast paced and brief was great as well. Not a MOTYC or anything but I still thought this was very good.

This was simply a red hot tag match with the action being super energetic w/ an awesome, compelling pace start to finish & very good work by each men involved. The perfect opener for any wrestling show ever, pretty much. ***3/4
