Angelo Dawkins is in top form tonight. He uses his power to toss Axiom around the ring. The luchador really needs to tag out here or hopes will fade for Fraxiom soon.

Truth says that he can't deny that he misses his hero. He adds that on Saturday, "if Cena wins, we riot."

He says that the championship wasn't the problem but it is John Cena's ego. Truth says that Cena can't take away his joy. Truth says that Cena wants to destroy wrestling, he has to save it to save John Cena.

R-Truth is next, and he calls out his childhood hero, John Cena. He says that the more power and fame John Cena gained, the more disconnected he became from Truth and the fans.

JIMMY PERFORMING WELL
BUT
SOLO SIKOA DISTRACTED 😳😳#SmackDown pic.twitter.com/goWchkegcf

The distraction does it for Jimmy as JC hits the Tour of the Islands for the win.

The New Bloodline def. Jimmy Uso and Fenix

There's more tension between Jacob Fatu and JC after the match as they stare each other down.

JC tags back in and tries to hit a German Suplex, but Fenix lands on his feet and tags in Jimmy Uso. Crossbody from Big Jim, but Fatu breaks it up. Fatu has had enough. Fenix hits him with a missile dropkick and goes for a tope suicida, but Fatu catches and tosses him into the announcer's table. Spear from Big Jim to JC as he heads up top. Solo is there for the distraction.

Jimmy is desperate now, and Big Jim finally gets JC off his feet. Both men tag out. It's Fatu vs Fenix now. Blistering assault by Fenis has Fatu on the back feet. The lightning quick luchador walks the rope and boots JC before hitting a hurricanrana to Fatu in the same motion, which he follows up with a super kick and a poisonrana. It's only a nearfall, but that was incredible! Rey Fenix is one of a kind.

Fatu tags in and running hip attack to Jimmy Uso in the corner. The ring is shaking from the force of that. JC tags back in and goes right after Jimmy.

The New Bloodline regrouped and has taken back control of the match. Jimmy Uso is isolated at the moment as JC slams him into the mat and follows it up with a standing moonsault, then he looks straight at Fatu.
