In their final opportunity to hype their match on Saturday night, Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn, and Gunther all staked their claim to the title in a segment that also featured King of the Ring finalists Oba Femi and Jey Uso.<\/p>\n
The entire thing started as an in-ring promo before descending into chaos, with all involved getting physical.<\/p>\n
The image of Femi standing on the ring apron, staring down Cody Rhodes and eyeing the WWE title, is a great one that gives the world a brief taste of a potential showdown that will happen sooner rather than later, and reignites the unfinished business topic shouted out by Michael Cole on commentary as the two previously squared off in December at Saturday Night’s Main Event.<\/p>\n
Uso was his obnoxious best, Rhodes was the straight man, but it was ultimately Gunther who brought the intensity, as if he was not already physically overwhelming stars in the match.<\/p>\n
The Triple Threat Match will be fantastic, while the Uso-Femi match on Saturday should be fun. This segment was not quite that, though, and it had a lot of repetition, with themes, lines, and whatnot from weeks past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In their final opportunity to hype their match on Saturday night, Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes, Sami Zayn,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":764197,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75],"class_list":["post-764196","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764196","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=764196"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/764196\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/764197"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=764196"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=764196"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=764196"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
