WWE Crown Jewel 2018: Analysing and grading each match

The New Day vs The Bar

A rivalry reignited

Match: Well, we're so used to seeing these two tag teams clash in classic contests, so there's no surprise the crowd was HYPED about this one. This time, though, there's an equaliser - or more - in the form of The Big Show.

Kofi Kingston and Cesaro started off the action with an incredible display of athleticism with Kofi getting the upper hand before the Swiss Cyborg used an uppercut to give himself the breathing space to tag in Sheamus. The Bar would use heelish tactics to take over the match.

The Bar would take advantage of Kofi Kingston's inability to tag in Big E and isolate the veteran, but Kingston fought back and hit the hot tag. The New Day's dominance didn't last, though, as chaos outside of the ring led to a big punch from the Big Show on Big E before a Brogue Kick sealed the deal.

Verdict: Not one of their best encounters, granted, but these two teams continue to put on classic after classic every single time they share the ring. The Big Show adds a new dimension to the match, and the physicality is still there - but how much longer can we watch these battles before it gets boring? I think a fresh challenge has to be on its way soon.

Grade: B-
