Main Event Reax - 5/26/18, Interviews with Lio/Mauro/Miz, Cena discussed on WWE Network, Smackdown and NXT live event notes, Shield DVD lineup, ROH announces big UK return, Enzo teaser, and a big All In Match teased

-- Main Event:
- Gallagher/Kendrick vs. Kalisto/Lince:
Fine start.

I like the heel teamwork here.

And some nice offense from the faces.

Kind of an odd ending. 

- Apollo vs. Mojo:
Mojo overpowering Apollo????

Apollo is WAY too good to be stuck where he is.

Mojo's doing alright as a heel. I'm glad he's getting some screen time.

Oh, wow!! Didn't see that coming.

- Post-match:
Mojo beating up two guys????? This is crazy! Interesting to see an actual angle on the show. 

- Hawkins streak status:
Curt's still at 0-198, for anyone wondering. He's so close to such a big milestone!

Lio Rush discussed coming to WWE and more. I'm glad he's getting opportunities again. I also think him doing his own music could help him. See R-Truth.

Sports Illustrated and Sam Roberts interviewed Mauro Ranallo about his recent documentary. This whole experience has been unbelievably powerful.

The Miz gave a pep talk for a UK soccer game.

John Cena will be the subject of the next "Something Else to Wrestle With."

Rusev Day are set for tag team matches on Smackdown's Japanese tour on June 29 and June 30, including challenging for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship. So, that could be something that's carried over to TV.

The Shield DVD set's lineup has been released. I'm surprised there aren't pre-main roster matches on the set, but there's definitely enough material as is.

ROH will return to the UK on August 16, August 18, and August 19. Wow. That's a nice turnaround for them.

The former Enzo Amore promoted an announcement coming Monday. It looks like he's going to use the name Real1 going forward, as Enzo is owned by WWE.

Cody vs. Nick Aldis at All In will be for both the ROH and NWA World Championships if Cody is ROH Champion at that time. That is absolutely a newsworthy main event.

China's Mars Wang teamed with the Street Profits in a loss to The Forgotten Sons of Chad Lail (Gunner), Wesley Blake, and Steve Cutler at a Floridan NXT live event. Wang had previously teamed with Heavy Machinery.

Tye Dillinger made a surprise return to an NXT Florida live event, defeating Marcel Barthel. Again, I'd assume this is just a special appearance for the loyal NXT fans rather than a demotion.

More wrestling tomorrow.
