winners: Street Profits at 21:35. Another incredible match here, I held my breath almost all the time. The only mistake made, although understandable, was the inclusion of Jaxson Ryker. Sacred cow Kyle O'Reilly took some bumps and Ford landed a few places. Despite my usual disdain for Cutler and Blake, they won their checks tonight. If a title of most useful player has been awarded to this match, it comes back to Montez Ford or Kyle O'Reilly.
Io Shirai is warming up. Candice LaRae comes in to remind her that she will be there to help her.

That's exactly what WWE had to do to counter the AEW Double or Nothing event. Every game was on the point and delivered at the highest level possible. If I had to choose a game of the night, it would be Dream-Breeze, but it is very difficult to choose a favorite of these games. Whatever your tastes, this event had it. The only way to improve this event would be to finally deliver the match Dijakovic – Lee, delayed by several months due to injuries and other problems.
