Austin Theory

Summary

This one kicked off WrestleMania 42 with all the chaos you’d expect when you mix legit tag teams with internet wildcards. The Usos wasted no time firing off superkicks early, isolating The Vision and trying to keep IShowSpeed from getting comfortable. Speed had a quick moment where he slammed LA Knight, but immediately bailed when Knight popped back up like nothing happened. From there, the match settled into a pretty standard rhythm—Jimmy and Jey controlling stretches while Logan Paul and Austin Theory snuck in momentum shifts whenever things got too clean. Speed’s biggest involvement came when things started getting messy. He accidentally collided with Knight during a scramble, which felt like the turning point where everything unraveled for his team. Knight didn’t waste time making them pay—he launched Theory into Speed, then dropped Theory with the BFT to seal the deal. Clean, quick, and honestly a little abrupt for a Mania match. Post-match is where things actually got interesting. Logan Paul snapped on Speed, laid him out, and tried to turn him into a human highlight reel through the announce table. The Usos and Knight stepped in, flipped the script, and suddenly Speed’s back on offense. He climbs up top and hits a wild splash through the table on Paul—his big redemption moment after being mostly along for the ride during the match itself. End result: Usos and Knight get the win, Speed gets the viral clip, and the match itself lands somewhere between “fun idea” and “that felt like it could’ve been longer.”

Summary

iShowSpeed ran into The Vision backstage and reluctantly escorted them to the ring, becoming an important sub-plot of this one. Logan Paul shoved Speed into LA Knight at one point, which drew the ire of Knight. This led to Knight getting distracted by Speed and Logan later and Theory was able to win via the surprise roll up (and some tight holding). The real story was the aftermath. Knight went to battle with The Vision and the Usos came to his aide. We ended with a promo where Knight asked Pearce for a 6-man tag match at Mania. And that match was confirmed!

Summary

This started as a fight more than a match, which is exactly what you’d expect given the stipulation, but it didn’t stay just a weapons brawl the whole time. The Usos controlled long stretches early by isolating Austin Theory and keeping Logan Paul from getting into any kind of rhythm. When Paul did get openings, he leaned into the chaos—cheap shots, quick bursts of offense, and staying just out of reach when things broke down. The turning point came once the outside involvement kicked in. Logan Paul’s corner got involved, and things spiraled from there. LA Knight, who had been around the situation, inserted himself and tried to even the odds, but that backfired in a big way. In the middle of the chaos, outside interference led to Paul getting his hands on brass knuckles. One well-timed shot changed everything, dropping an Uso and completely flipping control. From there, Theory didn’t waste time—he capitalized immediately and scored the pin to win the match. Result: The Vision def. The Usos to win the World Tag Team Championships

Summary

Solid match turned into a DQ win for the Vision. Good physical action from both groups. When it looked like Jey was going to get a big move from the top of the ropes, Logan cheap shotted him from the outside. Logan tried to get the brass knuckles involved in the match then LA Knight came out stole the brass knuckles from Jey and tossed them to Jey. Jey didn't hesitate blasting Theory with the Brass Knuckles giving the Vision the win. Frustration continued to boil over for Jey as he uncharacteristically attacked Logan after the match.

Summary

Since any match involving The Vision is always more likely to finish in a DQ or No Contest, it came as no surprise that this match ended quickly when Logan Paul attacked and pummeled Jimmy Uso. Jey Uso's music hit. Instead of running down the ramp, he appeared behind The Vision bringing his crutches as weapons for him and Jimmy. The Uso's got the upper hand and chased The Vision out of the ring. Do I smell a tag title feud in the making?
