– Dan Matha beat Patrick Clarke
First match of the night was Tough Enough contestant Patrick Clarke still using his new heel gimmick, wearing very patriotic pants with his face on them, and a Donald Trump “Make America Great Again” t-shirt. He was against Matha, a genetic freak of nature that looks a lot like Mr. Clean. It was a fun match that Matha won with a pretty sweet finisher, which looks like a pop up stunner set up after a chokeslam.
– Carmella and Daria beat Mandy Rose and Peyton Royce
Carmella teamed up with former Tough Enough contestant Daria “The Jersey Devil” Berenato against the team of Tough enough runner-up Rose and Royce. Carmella and Daria won with Daria looking really good. Carmella ended the match having Mandy tap out.
– Jeet Rama (Satender Dagar) beat Chris Girard
Rama, one of the Indian signees, came out to hardly any reaction, but quickly won the crowd over. Girard is a great heel, very erratic and aggressive. Jeet won with a roll-up after Girard worked on his leg for awhile; he celebrated while still selling the leg, and danced a bit with Jacksonville’s favorite referee, Drake Wuertz.
– Hugo Knox beat Angelo Dawkins
This was a very fun match with Knox picking up the win. Dawkins has really seemed to get his “two headbands” thing over, or at least, it seems in Jacksonville. Knox cut a promo at the end, which seemed to be something along the lines of him being “liquid money” and “a cover model”, but unfortunately, his accent made it hard to understand with him being post-match out of breath and speaking very fast. Got lots of “WHAT?!” chants as a result.
– Adrienne Reese beat Nicola Glencross
After intermission, we saw Reese vs. the former Nikki Storm, which was a spectacular match. The crowd was really into it, and both girls worked very well with one another. Nikki came out and immediately got heat by screaming at everyone that Jacksonville sucked and Scotland was better. She’s extremely aggressive and working the “crazy heel” angle seems to really work with her. Adrienne picked up the win with her finisher.
– Manny Andrade beat Alexander Wolfe via DQ
The next match was supposed to Andrade vs. Wolfe with his tag team partner Fulton in his corner. Wolfe and Fulton have this new Mad Max type of look that really works for them. The singles match was a good one until Sawyer ran in and clotheslined Manny, which led to him and Wolfe beating him down, and Tye Dillinger running in to make the save. That led to…
– Tye Dillinger and Manny Andrade beat Sawyer Fulton and Alexander Wolfe
Fun match that was mostly Sawyer and Wolfe, who work very well together, beating down Tye. Eventually, Tye and Manny turned it around for the win. The winning team celebrated in the ring and then outside greeting the fans around ringside before the show ended.
Miz got on the mic before the match and cut a promo where he channeled Rick Rude calling us “Greenville sweathogs” and talking about “what he’s like to have right now”. The whole match was building to Cesaro gettting Miz in the big swing which he didn’t during the match. Miz rolled up Cesaro after Maryse distracted him. After the match, Cesaro got the big swing on Miz and held up the Intercontinental belt.
– Stardust vs. Apollo Crews
I don’t believe Stardust was advertised beforehand so this was a surprise. Stardust did heel stalling for most of the match. Crews wins after a spinning sit down powerbomb, looked kind of like a blue thunder bomb.
– Big Cass vs Devon Dudley w/Bubba Ray Dudley
I assume this was originally Enzo and Cass vs the Dudleys. Cass does a pretty good job with the entrance promo without Enzo and the whole thing is already really popular. Bubba gets on the mic and says he hates hearing the crowd chant “How You Doin”. Cass wins after hitting the big boot on Devon and Bubba.
– The Usos vs Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows
Anderson and Gallows work one of the Usos for most of the match to lead to the hot tag. Usos were super popular and won after a top rope splash.
– Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn
Crowd was mostly dead for this match but Owens got them back on board after a few minutes in he grabbed the mic and said he didn’t want to hear any chants that weren’t for him. Zayn won after hitting the blue thunder bomb. Best match on the show in my opinion.
Intermission
– WWE Women’s Champion Charlotte vs. Natalya
I figured this is where we’d see Ric but Charlotte came out alone and wrestled in a t-shirt which was odd. Charlotte wins after a quick roll up . After the match Natalya gets the exit where she lost but still stands there and gets cheered by the crowd for her valiant effort. I didn’t think they did those things outside of tv.
– Baron Corbin vs. Dolph Ziggler
Ziggler wins after hitting the Zig Zag on Corbin. It was a pretty uneventful match.
– WWE Champion Roman Reigns vs. Sheamus
In the smaller town of Greenville, I figured Reigns would be 100% supported but it seemed he was getting booed just as much as cheered. Reigns wins after Sheamus misses a 2nd broque kick and Reigns hits the spear.

Submitted by James Girouard from the Denny Sanford Premier Center
– Dolph Ziggler b. Baron Corbin with a superkick and zig zag
Surprisingly good match. From a mechanical perspective, Corbin is much improved from where he was even a year ago.
– Titus O’Neil b. Fandango with a powerbomb
Fandango attacked Titus before the bell. Match itself probably went about a minute. Not much to it.
– WWE Women’s Champion Charlotte b. Natayla with a rollup after putting her feet on the ropes
Other than one or two mistimed spots early, the work was very good. However, the ring announcer (Eden Stiles) did ask the crowd before the match if they “wanted to see some beautiful women in the ring” so apparently old stereotypes die hard.
– Sami Zayn b. Stardust with the Blue Thunder bomb
Stardust stalled for most of the match and got quite a bit of heat. Zayn had a loyal, vocal minority really into him but Stardust was more over as a heel than Zayn was as a face. Match was fine, nothing special.
– AJ Styles b. Kevin Owens with the Phenomenal Forearm
Very good match, best of the night. Owens got a lot of heel heat early but was so great that as the match wore on he was getting as many cheers as boos. AJ’s in-ring timing is even more amazing live than it is on TV.
– Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows b. Darren Young & Mark Henry with the Magic Killer
Not much to the match, although it was weird to see Mark Henry as the babyface in peril. For not having been on TV very long Anderson & Gallows did get a decent reaction.
– Big Cass b. Primo with his East River Crossing sidewalk slam
Primo jumped Cass as he was cutting a promo before the match, but Cass ended up wiping him out quickly. Crowd was really into the singalong.
– IC Champion Miz (w/Maryse) b. Cesaro after throwing him into an exposed turnbuckle
Miz got tremendous heel heat from the second he walked out from the curtain until the match was over. Match was all sorts of overbooked with run-ins and interference from Maryse.
– WWE Champion Roman Reigns b. Sheamus with the spear
Hard hitting but the two have had much better matches. Both men were heavily booed at the start, but as the match wore on the reactions to Roman were probably 50-50. It is interesting because the last time Reigns was in Sioux Falls against Bray Wyatt he was pretty much universally cheered.
All in all, one of the better house shows I’ve seen from WWE since they started coming back to Sioux Falls regularly about 15 years ago. None of the matches were bad and the stuff that wasn’t as good was kept short. A lively crowd that was into the talent helped.
– Pre-show poll asked which match from WM32 to show before the event
Reigns def. HHH (11%)
The Undertaker def. Shane McMahon (40%)
Brock Lesnar def. Dean Ambrose (49%)
– Becky Lynch & Sasha Banks def. Emma & Lana – 18 min.
Crowd loved both the faces (Sasha might have had a bigger reaction due to the Eddie Guerrero connection). Sasha does The Banks Statement for the win while Lynch did her submission at the same time.
– Sin Cara def Epico – 9 min.
Guess worth noting that Los Matadores somewhat exist since that was his Titantron and attire for him. Some of the crowd seemed to boo that since at least some knew that’s a dead gimmick.
– Goldust def. Viktor with R-Truth as ref – 12 min match
R-Truth came out 1st with a decent pop. No reaction to Viktor, and fine reaction to Goldust. R-Truth played favor to Goldust and would often ignore Viktor’s attempted pinfalls or submissions. Finally, Goldust got an upper hand then won on a quick 3 count against him. Crowd enjoyed such mannerisms from R-Truth during the match (he ate some cotton candy from a fan from ringside) and after the match, both Goldust and R-Truth played along Truth’s theme song with the crowd.
– WWE Tag Team Champions The New Day (Big E & Xavier Woods) def. Kane & Big Show vs Erick Rowan & Braun Strowman in an elimination match – 17 min match
New Day came out first to a good reaction, then Rowan and Strowman came out to boos, biggest pops were to Kane then Big Show. Match was fun, Kane eliminated Wyatts, and then Xavier pinned Kane almost immediately. After Wyatts started to attack them, they then did a triple chokeslam by Kane and Show (with Xavier in between them). New Day then got the Big Show to dance, then Kane after 2 or so minutes.
INTERMISSION
– Hype Bros def. Social Outcasts – 10 min match
Decent pop for Ryder, and Mojo looks like he just enjoys it all. Outcasts were just there to do what they were to do, no fanfare.
– US Champion Kalisto def. Alberto Del Rio – 12 min match
Crowd was into both (“Si chants ” for Del Rio, “Lucha” for Kalisto) Match was pretty good. In the beginning, Del Rio attempted to not fight go back through the Titantron.
– Dean Ambrose def. Rusev – 17 min match
Dean probably got the biggest pop between him, women’s babyfaces, and Kane with Big Show. Crowd was into both him and Rusev until Lana came out to distract and got heat on Rusev then she was kicked out by the ref. Ambrose after a struggle wins after Dirty Deeds.
