Fittingly, the first match of Raw Reunion was a throwback affair in every sense of the word: In the ring were The Revival and The Usos, continuing the kind of old-school tag-team rivalry that both tandems made their bones off of. Around the ring were the teams’ enforcers, who were famous tag team veterans in their own right — D-Von Dudley backed up the Raw Tag Team Champions, while Rikishi flaked his sons at ringside. And at commentary was Booker T, the two-time Hall of Famer who cut his teeth as one half of Harlem Heat in WCW.
That’s pretty much the ideal scenario for The Revival, who proudly idolize and emulate classic duos like The Enforcers. Unfortunately for the champs, they ended up on the wrong end of this one when Scott Dawson found himself distracted by a face-off between D-Von and Rikishi at ringside, leaving him vulnerable to a superkick and the Double Uce. Thrilled with their win, Jimmy & Jey posed with their father in the ring, leaving the WWE Universe with the image of two generations of a legendary dynasty united in victory. That’s about as old-school as it gets, too.
