Welcome to WWE Mixed Match Season Two for October 16, 2018. We will have a recap of every match as the tournament goes to the finish
Matches
Bobby Roode and Natalya vs. Bobby Lashley and Mickie James (Country Dominace wins by pinfall)
With the loss of Kevin Owens, Natalya got Bobby Roode as a replacement. The new heel Bobby Lashley and Mickie James fit a lot better. James and Natalyia are some of the best workers in the women’s division, so they got a lot of the ring time. It was also strange not to see Chad Gable with Roode. Lashley is so damn strong and he threw Roode around the ring. The most serious match so far in the tournament.
Asuka & The Miz vs. Rusev and Lana( Awwska wins by submission)
Asuka and the Miz are so in sync I expect them to win the whole thing again. This match was interesting since Rusev and Miz fought earlier on Smackdown. Asuka is so funny and full of personality on this show I wish they would bring more of it on Smackdown. There was a moment where all four led a boo and cheer wave type of thing. Miz impersonated English and got put in the Acolyte by Lana. Asuka won by submission.
Final Thought: Smackdown wins just because the crowd was hot for this one. Roode looked the best he had in months. Lana and Rusev are over, in a good way.
