8/21/13 WWE Main Event Thoughts:

* The Shield vs. The Usos & Kofi Kingston – Usual good Shield 6-Man Tag. They have mastered the 6-Man Tag formula with their matches. Finishing sequence was like always, well done. 

* AJ Lee vs. Naomi – Good little pilot of a match for the amount of time it was given. Wouldn’t be surprised to see that be the Divas Title match at Night of Champions.

* Jack Swagger vs. The Great Khali – Had enough shenanigans from everyone on the outside to make it a decent match. Plus, we got more ZEB FACE!

* Fandango/The Miz segment – Quick little deal to pretty much say, “Hey, these guys are now feuding”. 

* Bray Wyatt vs. Justin Gabriel – Every Bray Wyatt squash I’ve ever seen while watching him on NXT & FCW. Still entertaining, though, every time I see it. He’s that good, folks. 

Well, that will do it for me this week. CJ will be back for the 8/28 WWE Main Event.
