WWE Main Event results: Bronson Reed vs. Apollo Crews

Last week’s WWE Main Event was taped at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, before last Monday’s Raw. Byron Saxton and Kevin Patrick were on the call. 

Dana Brooke defeated Xia Li (5:41)

They showed clips of Brooke’s recent match on NXT with Cora Jade. Saxton said Li wants to hurt Brooke and that Brooke is channeling a more aggressive side. 

Brooke aggressively worked a headlock, which Li got out of with a foot stomp. She tried dragging Li to the corner and tripped over the referee, falling to the ground. The crowd, which wasn’t paying attention, didn’t notice.

Li got a near fall with a running kick and then yelled at the quiet crowd to shut up, which led to a three-second “Let’s go Dana” chant.

The crowd woke up during Brooke’s comeback. She used several snapmares and a slap to the face. They grappled on the ropes, which Brooke got the better of and the former 24/7 Champion later after hitting a swanton.

Tonight on Main Event: Seth Rollins & Sami Zayn vs Damien Priest & Dirty Dominik Mysterio. Wow! What a huge match for WWE Main Event….oh wait, it’s just a replay of Raw last week. For all your information on the shows people watch, go read the Raw, SmackDown, NXT, Dynamite, Rampage, and Collision reports on the site.

Bronson Reed defeated Apollo Crews (6:48)

The main event of Main Event featured a former Intercontinental and United States Champion vs. a man who cleanly pinned Kazuchika Okada one year ago. If you like Crews, Main Event is the show for you as he has wrestled on seven of the last nine episodes. 

These two worked really well together and the crowd was into it within 90 seconds. Crews did a dive over the top rope and then went for a top rope move in the ring but Reed cut him off. Reed delivered a running shoulder block off the apron before we went to commercial.

Back from commercial and back in the ring, Reed squished Apollo in the corner and locked in a waist lock. Crews fought back up, elbowed his way out, and hit a jaw jacker. He followed that up with an enzuigiri to the back of Reed’s head, multiple kicks, a corner splash, and a flying crossbody off the top rope to finally knock Reed off his feet. 

Crews tried picking Reed up on his shoulders but failed. Reed went for a power bomb but failed. Crews finally picked Reed up, but Reed got out of it, hit a cyclone powerslam and then his Tsunami splash for the pin.

So that does it for Main Event. I am on a 144-hour break and have surgery Monday so send some positive thoughts my way and until next Sunday, have a great week!
