Back with Rohit in control of TJP stomping away at him in the corner.
Thanks to the commercial break this is actually our longest match of the night so far with TJP making his comeback.

MOOSE & CHRIS BEY VS. RICH SWANN & TOMMY DREAMER
Is Dreamer just wearing his Cody team jacket from All In? Does he just repurpose all his stuff?
Dreamer and Bey starting the match out with neither getting an advantage impressing Chris Bey.
I don’t think it is ever going to be a compliment to say something is starting to look like Terry Funk.
Back to the action from commercial with Moose taking it to Dreamer before Swann tags in.
Really liking the slow build of Moose and Rich Swann. Both men should look like a million bucks if we ever get that unification match.
