Montez Ford vs. Santos Escobar

[4.0] "I felt that there was too much going on at ringside , if there was more time allotted and they got a chance to show out, this could have been a fantastic match. On paper Santos vs Montez sounds like it would be a match of the night candidate , but this wasn't true here there was too much interference , plus they're trying way to hard to make the fans boo the street profits . I liked some athleticism we got , but this could have been a greater and more versatile showcase if we just got a straight up match between these two men. Hopefully down the line maybe we revisit this , and they put on the match I know they can put on."

[3.0] "A very straightforward, boring heatless match that felt very formulaic. The action didn't really get going so it was hard to get in to it. At least the Profits won, but that's all."

[6.0] "This rivalry is really boring. The LWO is just Rey Mysterio and his buddies, a guy that recently turned on him because he has projection outside being just his friend, two jobbers and a girl who works better as a manager than as a wrestler. Now add to that group the nostalgia act that Carlito is. On the other side you have a lifeless revival of the Hurt Business with the Street Profits, who didn't need this heel turn at all. They were really over as faces and if they needed a change that was just giving Tez a singles push. The guy is just too good to be a perennial Tag Team wrestler. Combine these two boring factions against one another and you have a match where nothing that happens in it matter at all. There was no intensity, no sense of urgence, you can't feel the hate between the wrestlers. On a personal note, I just can't stand seeing Raúl and Joaquín just being jobbers, this time being taken out by just Dawkins. The In-Ring work is the only good thing that happened here, although that Frankesteiner spot with Santos delaying the move for 10 seconds looked bad, the same with whatever he was trying when he jumped outside the ring to attack Tez. Both men looked really unmotivated in this match (** 3/4)"

[5.0] "A pretty average match here, in my opinion. I think these two are capable of something better and more entertaining, but this worked fine for the story. I'm hoping we get a heel turn from Escobar and Legado del Fantasma soon, as I think it could give way for an awesome feud with Rey Mysterio."

[6.0] "Decent match and exactly what Smackdown should be doing more with their midcard. Santos was immediately aggressive due to wanting revenge for Carlito but Montez also has more of a growing edge since aligning with Bobby. Montez used his aerial ability to almost make this a lucha-style match (that springboard trust fall thing looked great) while Santos held it together to get to where we needed too. There for a couple of moments where it fell apart but they got to a good finish with Dawkins hitting Santos behind the referees back, starting a wild brawl and Montez taking advantage to roll Santos up and win. More of this please. ***"

[6.0] "The names of the match look interesting, but in reality it turned out just fine. Everyone showed off their chips and thats it. Although they are similar in style and one could have expected some kind of high-speed duel, for some reason they did not show it. I can't say the pace was low, but it wasn't what you'd expect either. The ending came out fast and fussy, and most importantly, unexpected. That is, the guys didnt even have time to approach the peak of the fight. We were cut off before the climax, which is sad. The plot of the two factions continues, although it is not particularly interesting to watch."

[5.0] "pretty mediocre. both have lots of potential, but this match didn't went well in my opinion, and had just few good spots. I feel like Santos has been in the wrong way recently, because when I saw his previous singles matches especially against Theory, he showed his high capabilities, just like Montez. I was okay with the result, because Montez needed this win, more than Santos. (**1/2)"

[5.0] "Pretty standard tv match that really didnt pick up until the final two minutes. Few nice spots from Montez and santos, but other than that a pretty standard match. Santos has kind of just been going through the motions lately and needs a fresh angle to get him rolling again."

[7.0] "A good match which i wish got more time. Montez Ford needed a win otherwise the story with Bobby Lashley is dead. Montez winning wth the tights firmly sets them as heels which i like, they just need new music now. Santos Escobar looked good in defeat, he has the best dives in WWE imo. Angelo Dawkins also sold like a champion."

[5.0] "An overall ok match between two talents that I enjoy watching. Mostly served as a way to get some heat on Street Profits prior to their tag match against Santos and Rey next week. The match had some good moments and some rough moments. Santos has sort of felt stuck in place enduring a number of losses in recent time and the question becomes when a heel turn might be in his future. It is getting to the point of feeling overdue in spite of him being enjoyable to watch in the ring and with promise for more as a face."
