If not for Dolph Ziggler & Drew McIntyre, The Revival might well be Raw Tag Team Champions. That was true three weeks ago when they jumped Dash & Dawson and took their opportunity against The B-Team, and it was true tonight, when the “Top Guys” got the title match that had been stolen from them and came up short despite an inspiring effort that seems to indicate plenty of future title runs to come.
It just wasn’t enough this time around. Dash & Dawson planned things perfectly, isolating Ziggler from McIntyre and dissecting him bit by bit. But they ended up getting a taste of their own medicine when Dash, riding high after torqueing Ziggler with a Rings of Saturn, found himself olé’d into the steel steps. Now, both teams were effectively a member down, and despite a gritty rally from the two-time NXT Tag Team Champions that briefly incapacitated McIntyre as well, The Scottish Terminator effectively ended the match when he tagged in and dispatched both the challengers by himself. With Dawson dispatched by a big boot and legal man Wilder dazed by a Glasgow Kiss, Dash was helpless to stop the Claymore-Zig Zag. A noble effort by any measure, but the coronation will have to wait.
