At WrestleMania 42, we have a Ladder Match for the Intercontinental Championship Match. Four of those six competitors competed tonight in tag team action when Je’Von Evans and Dragon Lee battled Rusev and JD McDonagh. While it will be every man for themselves this weekend, these teams have to work together tonight to get a slight mental advantage.
While Dragon Lee and Je’Von Evans have been friendly in the past, it was interesting to see if JD McDonagh and Rusev would work well together. In the early going, they did solid, but it was Je’Von Evans who had everyone reeling with his ferocious offense.
JD was even showing off as well, hitting a Moonsault to the outside. But, when the likes of Je’Von Evans went to the well to often for a high-flying maneuver, Rusev was able to catch and destroy.

When Je’Von’s offense lacks, Dragon Lee was there to pick up the slack. Dragon and JD had some very fun back-and-forth offense while they were in the ring together, including Dragon Lee picking up the win with a Styles Clash.
Before Je’Von and Dragon could even celebrate, Rusev was on the attack post-match. Then, here came Rey Mysterio and Penta to join the fray. This rounds out all the WrestleMania competitors, but Rusev laid them all out. Even JD McDonagh.
