TJ Perkins vs Tony Nese
Trending
TJ Perkins competed for the first time on Raw against fellow Raw debutant, the ‘Premier Athlete’ Tony Nese. Nese started the match off really well, hitting two hard belly-to-back drops to TJP. Nese pulled off some unbelievable moves including a cartwheel dodge on the apron followed by a superkick on the outside. He followed this up running back into the ring and immediately hitting TJP with an over-the-top-rope twisting dive. Nese showed the WWE Universe what he had to offer and had the crowd won over just minuted into the match.
Perkins hit back with an unique Octopus hold off a hurracanrana but Nese powered out of it and hit Perkins with a leg drop. Perkins then hit back a hurracanrana and a neckbreaker out of the corner as the crowd disrespectfully chanted “CM Punk” for no reason at all. Perkins hits the chickenwing facebuster and went to the top rope. Nese caught him out however and powered Perkins out of an Octopus hold into a deadlift vertical suplex.

The match ended with a kneebar following a TJP signature apron dropkick with Nese tapping out. The crowd chanted “Randy Savage” during the ending sequence of the match in another shameful incident of self-promotion by a WWE crowd who ignored a pretty great match only to chant for Punk and Savage instead of getting into the match Perkins and Nese were putting on. Shameful.
