Winner: Adam Page

Rating: ****. The winner was never in doubt here, but both men delivered big time. Page gets a huge win going into his rematch with Moxley on Wednesday, and Yuta looks like a savage animal that belong at this level. Everyone wins. Match was super hard hitting and those double Germans on the apron and floor were stiff. Great stuff, great opener.

Taylor locks the figure four leg lock in on Jarrett, but Singh is so large he can make he tag from across the ring. Singh breaks up the submission and Danhausen makes the tag! Danhausen side steps a charging Singh, and all of the Best Friends take turns dropping Singh over the top rope, and he finally hits the deck. Danhausen grabs the guitar but the referee removes it from the ring. Jarrett catches Danhausen in the face with Stingray’s Golden Globe. Orange Punch to Sonjay on the outside, but in the meantime, Singh pins Danhausen with a single boot on the chest.

Winners: Jay Lethal, Jeff Jarrett, & Satnam Singh

Rating: **1/2. Decent enough tag match here, heavy on the comedy as expected. Did we need Singh to get the pin after an illegal strike by Jarrett? Probably not.

Winner: Jamie Hayter

Rating: ***1/4. Really entertaining, hard-hitting match here. Similar to the opening match, the winner was never in question, but Sakura brought her A game today and Hayter was up to the challenge. Both women delivered here.

Final Thoughts: Two very good matches in a one-hour show? I’m easy to please. Having Adam Page on Rampage made it feel like a big show, and a title eliminator only drove the point home. Fun episode of Rampage this week, easy sixty minutes of wrestling to watch. 7.75/10.
