The Prime Time Players def. The Usos, Tons of Funk, The Real Americans and 3MB (Tag Team Turmoil No. 1 Contender’s Match)
DETROIT — Darren Young and Titus O’Neil proved that they are indeed ready for prime time during the Night of Champions Kickoff. The confident duo advanced past 3MB, The Real Americans, Tons of Funk and The Usos in a high-octane Tag Team Turmoil Match to become No. 1 Contenders to the WWE Tag Team Championship. The Prime Time Players will now face WWE Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns during the Night of Champions pay-per-view.

Heath Slater and Drew McIntyre of 3MB opened the contest, but found themselves at a severe disadvantage standing across the ring from Tons of Funk. The wannabe rockstars brought the fight to the boogieing big men early, until Tensai caught McIntyre with a quick rollup to send 3MB packing.
The Real Americans rushed to the ring to replace 3MB, who continued attacking Tons of Funk after the bell. Antonio Cesaro and Jack Swagger quickly pounced on the offensive. Though Tensai and Brodus Clay nearly crushed their foes, The Real Americans survived by using quick tags, eventually trapping The Funkasaurus in Swagger’s vicious Patriot Lock.
Next to enter the fray were The Usos, who neutralized Cesaro and Swagger with a flurry of dizzying dives so rapid that WWE cameras had trouble keeping up. Jimmy and Jey’s risk-taking caught up with them, though, as Swagger ensnared one of the Samoans in the Patriot Lock to eliminate them.
Young and O’Neil then joined the chaotic contest. Swagger cut The Prime Time Players off before they could get going, catching both Titus and Darren in the Patriot Lock. Young, however, was able to wiggle out of the submission hold and send Swagger crashing into the turnbuckle. The Real American stumbled back into a Gut Check that gave The Prime Time Players the opportunity of a lifetime.
The Prime Time Players were elated after the bell rang to signal their victory. The cocky pair will have to put their excitement behind them quickly, however, as they have very little time to get ready for The Shield. Can Young and O’Neil unseat Reigns and Rollins and capture the WWE Tag Team Titles?
