Taped 8/4 in Austin, Tex.
Report by Justin James, PWTorch contributor


1 - CAMERON vs. EMMA

Cameron plays with a compact after the bell so Emma slaps it out of her hands. Cameron gets aggressive, but Emma weathers it and goes on the attack. Philips and Young try to sound enthused for Total Divas Season 3 as the crowd chants for Emma. Cameron with a unique chicken wing into a jackknife hold. Cross body flattens Cameron.

Dim-Emma through the ropes, then Emma stomps to call for the Emma-Mite-Sandwich for barely two. Emma wants a bodyslam, but Cameron slips out and reverse into an inverted DDT for two. Reverse Pedigree gets the win for Cameron.

WINNER: Cameron in 4:05. Nothing too special. Cameron has not impressed me, but nothing can look bad after I saw Eva Marie on NXT earlier tonight.

2 - U.S. champion SHEAMUS vs. TITUS O'NEIL - non-title match

O'Neil wrangles Sheamus into the corner out of the bell. Big shoulderblock knocks Sheamus down. Sheamus with a shoulder block that sends O'Neil flying. Nice, physical match here. O'Neil beats Sheamus to the mat. O'Neil reverses a whip and lands a boot to the middle. Sheamus with a big boot out of the corner. Sheamus with a kind-of-throw to send O'Neil out of the ring.

[ Break ]

O'Neil is controlling Sheamus out of the break. Sheamus punches his way out but takes a boot to the middle. O'Neil hoists Sheamus over his shoulder and lands a backbreaker. O'Neil looks like a grade A champion in this match. O'Neil tosses Sheamus like a dishrag. Sheamus swings at O'Neil from his knees but O'Neil dodges and slaps him. And again. O'Neil starts taunting Sheamus and slapping him. Sheamus fights to his feet. Sheamus unloads on O'Neil then takes him down with a brutal mugging. Running high knee from Sheamus, and a rolling senton gets two.

Ten forearms in the ropes from Sheamus. Sheamus pulls a Cesaro and suplexes O'Neil into the ring to get two. Sheamus to the top, but O'Neil meets him there. Sheamus backs O'Neil up but O'Neil big boots Sheamus off the turnbuckle. O'Neil slams Sheamus into the top rope twice, but Sheamus slips out of a bodyslam and hits the Brogue Kick for the win.

WINNER: Sheamus in 8:45. I am not usually a fan of the "WWE main event" style, but this match was an excellent example of what a good match can be in that fashion. I would love to see this on a PPV for the United States Championship. O'Neil looked like a genuine contender and Sheamus did a great job making him look like a star (like he often does for his opponents). Lots of little details made this a match worth a view.
