Gravity vs. Angelico

A quality win here for Angelico ahead of his future title match against Eddie Kingston.

The two men grappled to a stalemate to start. Gravity sent Angelico to the floor with a dropkick before following him outside with a dive. Gravity went for a high crossbody, but Angelico caught him with an anti-air dropkick. Angelico tied up Gravity like a pretzel with a submission before leaning Gravity back onto his shoulders for a nearfall.

Gravity evaded a corner charge before sending Angelico down with an enzuigiri. They traded pinfall attempts before Gravity hit an around-the-world sunset flip. Angelico countered it into a triangle choke, but Gravity powerbombed his way free. Gravity went for a splash off the top rope, but Angelico got his knees up. Angelico locked Gravity into his half-crab submission to score the win.

Winner: Angelico via Submission.

Pure Rules Match
Pat Buck vs. Josh Woods

I liked how Buck wrestled this match, using his veteran smarts to get the advantage on Woods while he had it.

The judges for this match were Jimmy Jacobs, Madison Rayne, & Christopher Daniels.

Ian Riccaboni ran down Buck’s training credentials, with Buck having trained TBS Champion Kris Statlander and AEW World Champion MJF. Woods quickly caught Buck by the legs, forcing Buck to use his first rope break one minute into the match. Buck came back, forcing Woods into the ropes to burn one of his rope breaks.

Buck went for an O’Connor Roll, but Woods held onto the ropes, thus burning his second rope break. Sterling complained to the referee, allowing Buck to punch Woods in the face. Woods got his shot back, but the referee saw it and administered Woods an official warning. Woods caught Buck by the knee and stuffed it. Woods went after the knee, but Buck kept catching Woods in pinning positions for nearfalls.

Woods went back after the knee before hitting a gut-wrench powerbomb. Woods locked on the Woods Lock for the submission win.

Winner: Josh Woods via Submission.

Griff Garrison & Cole Karter vs. Myron Reed & Ren Jones

Reed used his agility to duck a Garrison clothesline. Karter caught Reed with a knee to the back, allowing Garrison to drop him with a big boot. Karter hit a dropkick on Reed, but couldn’t stop the tag to Jones, who took him down with a running forearm. Jones hit a brainbuster for a nearfall. Garrison got a blind tag, hitting a ripcord elbow on Jones before Karter hit a Dominator for the win.

Winner: Griff Garrison & Cole Karter via Pinfall.
