WWE Live Event Results: Saskatoon, Canada (2/1/2019)
The first live event on the road to WrestleMania 35 concluded last night in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada and it was quite a star-studded affair indeed.
The house show was headlined by a Fatal 4-way title match that featured Dean Ambrose who mysteriously seemed to have adopted a babyface persona. The tag team titles were also on the line as top names of the Raw brand kickstarted the road to WrestleMania is solid fashion.
Let's not waste any more time and jump right into the results (Special thanks to Ross Millsap):
#1 Bobby Roode & Chad Gable (C) vs. The Revival (RAW Tag Team Championships)
The Raw tag team titles encounter kickstarted the in-ring proceedings of the night as the reportedly unhappy duo of Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder looked to capture the tag team straps from Roode and Gable.
Both teams put on a solid opener as the fans in attendance were invested in the action from bell to bell. In the end, the babyface team of Roode and Gable retained their titles. It should be noted that Wilder addressed the rumours of The Revival's WWE departure by screaming 'release me' in a jestful way during his entrance. Was this another hint of the impending release of the former NXT Tag Team Champions?
Result: Roode and Gable def. The Revival to retain the RAW Tag team titles
#2 Nikki Cross vs. Tamina
The eccentric Nikki Cross followed up the engaging opening match with a single bout against the 41-year-old Tamina Snuka. The former NXT star made quick work of Tamina and picked up the win in a blink-and-you-miss match.
Tamina got a lukewarm response while Cross was the all-out favourite in the match.
Result: Nikki Cross def. Tamina
