The three-time tag champions The Bar (Sheamus & Cesaro) look to regain their titles from the ragtag partners of Seth Rollins and Jason Jordan this Sunday at the Royal Rumble in Philadelphia. With Dean Ambrose being injured, we saw Jason Jordan use his “dad”, Raw GM Kurt Angle, to get an undeserved tag title shot with Rollins. Despite Rollins having an obvious disdain for his partner, they miraculously captured the titles on the Christmas edition of RAW. The win was all down to Rollins – despite Jordan getting the pin, it was Rollins that was the star of the team.
Since then Jordan has been getting cockier, running his mouth at every chance before hiding behind Rollins or Roman Reigns. As much as Rollins hates Jordan’s behavior, he knows he needs to defend his partner. At RAW 25, Jordan running his mouth brought out The Bar. He wasn’t too happy when they told him he sucks, which the crowd agreed with wholeheartedly. Again, he showed an immaturity and tried attacking both men. Rollins, as always, defended Jordan but ended the segment by accidentally hitting Jordan with a flying knee to the face. This could sow seeds of miscommunication that allows The Bar to capture the titles.
The rematch of the Christmas day title switch, The Bar can easily walk away with the win. Ever since forming, they have dominated the division and will be out to avenge their defeat to Kurt Angle’s whiny son. Jordan is as immature and cocky as he is is extremely talented and his partnership with Rollins forms a highly athletic team that is hard to beat. Seth Rollins especially brings some pedigree to the team. The former WWE World Heavyweight Champion, star of the company and a clear tag team specialist has what it takes to win matches almost single-handedly. Expect The Bar to win here to set Jordan on the path to a full heel turn and a feud with Rollins.
