This week’s WWE Main Event was taped at the TD Banknorth Garden in Boston, Massachusetts before Monday’s episode of Raw.

Pete Dunne w/Tyler Bate defeated Akira Tozawa (4:55)

This was a fun sprint that could easily have gone longer and topped the show.

Dunne and Bate have had a lot of appearances on Main Event recently, but they went with a solo bout here for Dunne. It seems kind of a waste when you could have a really hot tag match to kick things off, but they clearly wanted the Creeds to go up against LWO later on.

Tozawa and Dunne went to the mat early as Dunne used his slow methodical approach to counteract Tozawa’s desire to fly all over.

Dunne was pretty heelish here and the crowd could sense that and so started to back Tozawa even more. Tozawa is very likable anyway, but they rallied behind him as he used a snapmare, shining wizard and dropkick off the second rope to take Dunne down.

Tozawa ducked a clothesline and used a German for a near fall before he tore his shirt and went wild.

Tozawa nailed Dunne with an enzuigiri and then went up top and hit his senton, but Dunne put his knees up to block it and so, instead, the finish was Dunne using the Bitter End to get his arm raised.

LWO (Joaquin Wilde & Dragon Lee) defeated The Creed Brothers (6:19)

This was a good, solid tag match that saw The Creed Brothers lose yet again. It seems odd to be beating them at all, but Wilde and Lee looked good here.

Joaquin Wilde had made his Main Event debut last week in a loss to Tozawa, but he was back this week on the winning team with his tag partner Dragon Lee. It was Lee’s turn to be the debutant this week and he looked excellent.

The early going was slow, but just before the break, Julius hit Wilde with three overhead belly-to-bellies that the crowd rightly went nuts for. His athleticism really is something else.

After the ads, it was all the Creeds. They cut the ring in half and beat up Wilde before Brutus slapped on the dreaded chin lock to bring the tempo down and rest.

Wilde got out and eventually got the hot tag to Lee who came in all guns blazing. He got Julius in the tree of woe and stomped him, before taking out Brutus off the apron with a tope. Wilde was then the one to get the win, coming off the top with a 450 splash to get it done.

The Creeds are now finding the wins to be few and far between. They are being booked as entertaining jobbers at this point, as they have had only two wins since early March.
