WINNERS: BETH PHOENIX AND NATALYA

This was a good tables match, they all went out there and made it seem personal, as it should have been. Beth Phoenix woke up and chose to be Ricky Morton, with Natalya having to fight from underneath against the cohesive team also, you knew the finish had to involve the decorated table so they teased it enough without it getting tedious. [**¼] 4.75/10.
