Former WWE employee Dutch Mantell spoke about Drew McIntyre and Sheamus putting on a classic tag team encounter on this week's SmackDown.
The blue brand kicked off with McIntyre and Sheamus taking on The Viking Raiders in a Tag Team Title Contenders match. The Banger Bros destroyed their opponents with a Claymore Brogue Kick combo and advanced to the next round of the tournament.
On the latest episode of Smack Talk, the former WWE manager said that he enjoyed this week's opener. Mantell spoke highly of the two tandems and praised the action in the ring. He detailed that it was a well-thought-out match and the right team won the bout.
"Good match, very good. When I first saw them [Sheamus and McIntyre] come out there, I said, 'I don't know.' The more I watched it, they kinda got it together and they ended up having a great match. When they came out, I'm thinking who is going to win this match? Because that's what every wrestling fan thinks. They had a great finish. It was paced well and I enjoyed," said Mantell.
