It’s been some rough sledding for The O.C. recently. Yes, AJ Styles staved off Cedric Alexander to retain the United States Championship, but Luke Gallows & Karl Anderson have been rolled over for a couple weeks by The Viking Raiders, and Braun Strowman knocking out The Phenomenal One at WWE Hell in a Cell certainly didn’t help matters. But the good brothers got a break this week thanks to a win over Lucha House Party that put some much-needed wind back in their sails.
They certainly had to work for it. The good brothers were noticeably vulnerable when the match began, as even Styles found himself outmatched by Kalisto in the early goings and near the end of the match when The King of Flight came within spitting distance of the Salida del Sol. If not for an all-out brawl that encompassed both teams, Styles might have found himself embarrassed for the second time in as many nights. But Styles found his opening to hit the match-ending Phenomenal Forearm on Kalisto and led his teammates in a post-match beatdown of Gran Metalik and Lince Dorado, the latter of whom suffered a Styles Clash from the second rope. If the victory wasn’t a message enough, the attack surely was. Anyone who mistook a bad few weeks for the end of The O.C.’s magic is sorely mistaken and will be dealt with accordingly.
