WWE Main Event Review - February 24, 2015

By Graham "GSM" Matthews

WWE Tag Team Champions Cesaro and Tyson Kidd def. The Lucha Dragons (Non-title)

These two teams were the perfect match for each other and they had as great of a bout as I expected them to. The Lucha Dragons' offense was exciting and Kalisto was the absolute star of the match. Kidd and Cesaro were also able to pull of some impressive maneuvers of their own, making for a very fun matchup from start to finish. The Lucha Dragons had such an awesome showing that they lost nothing in defeat and it gave the tag champs a nice win. Here's hoping this isn't the last we see of these tandems in the ring together.


The Bella Twins def. Paige and Emma

This was the match we should have gotten on Raw. They got a good chunk of time here, but I would've settled for anything longer than a minute in their previous match. Paige and Emma are great partners because they have that storied friendship and are also terrific wrestlers. Meanwhile, The Bella Twins, while I'm not their biggest fans, play their roles well and are good in the ring when working with the right opponents. This was a very good match from the ladies, or at least by main roster Diva standards. It's a shame we don't get these kind of matches from the women on Raw or SmackDown.

Stardust def. Kofi Kingston

I was really hoping for more from Stardust and Kingston as they're capable of having an excellent match. They were given roughly 10 minutes here, but most of it was rest holds and the crowd was never able to get invested in the action. It never left first gear, so once Stardust hit the Cross Rhodes, I was left slightly disappointed. It wasn't a bad match per se, but it definitely wasn't what it could have been.


Overall Show

Both last week's and this week's shows were entertaining for the most part, which tells me that WWE has finally woken up and realized that Main Event shouldn't be neglected simply because it's not on WWE Network anymore. They don't need to progress any major storylines or anything, but instead of constant squashes, giving the Superstars some time to work is all that I ask for, and they did that with all three matches here. While I didn't particularly enjoy Stardust vs. Kingston, the other two matches, especially the Divas match, were quite good and worth checking out.
