Ricochet and Sheamus competed in a one-on-one contest on WWE SmackDown. The latter broke Ridge Holland's nose at WWE Day 1, and The Irishman was looking to exact revenge.

Sheamus used his strength to punish Ricochet early, keeping him grounded. However, the latter hit a beautiful sunset flip powerbomb that almost secured the win. The former WWE Champion fought back, pinning Ricochet off with a thunderous Brogue Kick.

While there were not many quality matches on this week's show, this bout was the best of the night, entertaining from start to finish.

It's unfortunate to see Ricochet in such a spot on the roster. He is amongst the best in the ring, but the creative team hasn't given him too many big matches as of late.

Holland's injury has put his storyline with Sheamus and Cesaro on the backfoot. Hopefully, the creative team will push him once again when he gets back to the ring.
