PRE-SHOW MATCH: JOE HENDRY vs. DOMINIK MYSTERIO (w/Liv Morgan and JD McDonagh)

Dominik Mysterio rushed Joe Hendry at the opening bell with a dropkick and immediately went on the attack. Hendry quickly turned the tide with a rebound clothesline, followed by a series of aggressive strikes, a hip toss, a long stalling suplex, and a clothesline that sent Dominik to the outside. After some attempted interference from The Judgment Day, Hendry took down JD McDonagh with a forearm and attempted to return to the ring. As Hendry approached the ropes, Dominik kicked the middle rope into Hendry’s groin, sending him spilling to the floor in pain.

Dominik followed Hendry to the floor and dove through the ropes before bringing the fight back inside. He grounded Hendry with a series of strikes and a flipping senton from the apron. Hendry eventually began his comeback with a back elbow and a big fallaway slam. He went for the discus clothesline, but Dominik ducked underneath and connected with a jumping neckbreaker. Dominik attempted a tornado DDT, but Hendry countered with a suplex before finally hitting the discus clothesline for a near fall.

The Judgment Day climbed onto the apron to distract Hendry. He knocked JD McDonagh off the apron, but the distraction gave Dominik enough time to recover. Dominik connected with an enzuigiri, a 619, and a Frog Splash to score the victory.

WINNER: Dominik in 6:00

(Hubbard’s Analysis: A solid, back-and-forth, fast-paced match that worked well as a bonus pre-show attraction. Dominik wrestled with more aggression and seriousness than usual, while Hendry provided enough offense to make the match competitive without overstaying its welcome. The Judgment Day interference was kept relatively minimal, although it ultimately allowed Dominik to score a somewhat protected victory. )

-Following the match, Liv Morgan grabbed the microphone and delivered an annoying promo putting herself over while hyping her match against Stephanie Vaquer tomorrow night.

(1) LIL YACHTY vs. BARON CORBIN – If Yatchy survives 5 minutes Corbin must defend the U.S. Title against Trick Williams

Surprisingly, Lil Yachty did not make his way to the ring with Trick Williams. Instead, he was accompanied by an entourage who were introduced as members of his rap group. Before the bell, Corbin grabbed the microphone and offered Yachty the opportunity to forfeit and walk away. Yachty took the microphone as if he were going to respond, but instead smashed Corbin with it before immediately running away.

Yachty eventually attempted to return to the ring, but Corbin caught his foot and dragged him to the floor. Corbin tossed him into the barricade several times before Yachty’s entourage attempted to rescue him. Corbin fought them off and threw them into the ringside area. Yachty attempted to escape underneath the ring, but Corbin caught him. Yachty emerged with the kendo stick and began beating Corbin with it before Corbin cut him off with a clothesline. Corbin then hit a Deep Six on one member of the entourage and End of Days on another.

Yachty finally mounted a comeback by countering a charging Corbin with a boot before connecting with a hurricanrana from the second rope and a crossbody, much to the crowd’s delight. Corbin immediately cut him off with End of Days. Yachty lay motionless in the center of the ring with roughly 90 seconds remaining. Corbin delivered another End of Days and began setting up a table with less than a minute remaining.

Corbin attempted a superplex, but Yachty countered with a desperation low blow. Corbin collapsed to the mat as time expired, allowing Yachty to survive the five-minute time limit. Before Trick made his way to the ring, Corbin chokeslamed Yatchy through the table.

WINNER: Yachty by surviving the five-minute time limit

(Hubbard’s Analysis: The crowd was completely behind Yachty, and that enthusiasm carried the match. The action was mostly good and, more importantly, Yachty was never asked to do anything beyond his abilities. Corbin provided the necessary structure and protected Yachty throughout the match. The finish effectively kept Yachty from beating Corbin while still giving the crowd the result it wanted. It worked with the live audience.)

(2) BARON CORBIN vs. TRICK WILLIAMS – United States Championship

Trick Williams sprinted to the ring, slid underneath the ropes, and immediately connected with two sidekicks before clotheslining Corbin to the outside. Trick went to check on his injured friend, but when he returned to Corbin, the champion cut him off with a right hand and drove him into the ring post. As Corbin continued beating down Trick, Williams returned with a diving ax handle and threw Corbin back into the ring.

Trick followed with a jumping clothesline, a flapjack, and the Trick Slap, sending Corbin into the corner. He then delivered a series of stomps to the cadence of the crowd chanting “Whoop that Trick!” before hitting a Samoan Driver for a two-count. Corbin retreated to the apron and connected with a hangman before pushing Trick off the apron and into the side of the table.

Corbin threw Trick into the steel steps multiple times before returning to the ring and applying a Half Nelson Chinlock. Trick fought his way out but was knocked back down with a clothesline and a belly-to-back suplex variation. Corbin reapplied the hold, but Trick fought up again, eventually meeting Corbin with a double clothesline that left both men down.

Both competitors recovered and exchanged strikes before Trick abruptly gained the advantage with a jumping neckbreaker. Trick went for the Cyclone Boot, but Corbin countered with a chokeslam. Williams rallied with the Book End, but Corbin sidestepped the Trick Shot and connected with a Deep Six for a near fall. Trick avoided a charging Corbin in the corner and followed with a bulldog, only for Corbin to regain control by sending him into the ring post.

Corbin retreated to ringside and attempted to secure the United States Championship belt. As he returned to the ring, Yachty grabbed the belt and engaged Corbin in a tug-of-war. The distraction gave Trick enough time to recover and connect with a Cyclone Boot for a believable near fall. As the referee attempted to get Yachty out of the ring, Corbin struck Trick with the championship belt. Unlike their SummerSlam encounter, Trick kicked out.

Corbin attempted End of Days, but Trick flipped through the move and landed on his feet. He got a running start and connected with the Trick Shot to score the pinfall and win the United States Championship.

WINNER: Williams in 11:00 to win the United States Championship

(Hubbard’s Analysis: This was a traditional babyface-versus-heel match, and while not every sequence was perfectly smooth, the important moves landed with plenty of impact. The crowd was firmly behind Trick, and the basic wrestling psychology worked to a tee. My biggest complaint was Yachty remaining involved in the ring for far too long, particularly when allowing Corbin to gain an advantage over Trick. That was a little silly given the circumstances. Still, this was an effective match that delivered the result the live audience wanted, and Trick winning the United States Championship provided a satisfying payoff to the story.)

(3) BRON BREAKER vs. OBA FEMI 

Paul Heyman handled the in-ring introductions for both competitors, which was a unique and effective touch. At the bell, the two men engaged in an intense staredown before locking up aggressively, each attempting to establish his strength. Breakker could not take Oba down with a shoulder block, and Oba failed to move Breakker with one of his own. They then exchanged running sequences off the ropes before Oba finally knocked Breakker off his feet with a shoulder tackle, forcing Breakker to retreat to the outside to regroup.

Oba followed him to the floor and picked Breakker up on his shoulder before dumping him onto the ring apron. Oba attempted the same maneuver again, but Breakker slipped free and sent Oba into the ring post. Breakker approached from the apron, but Oba intercepted him with a hard chop that drew a big reaction from the crowd. Oba then entered the ring and clotheslined Breakker back to the floor. Breakker cut him off while he was attempting to clear the announce table and hit a flying clothesline from the apron, sending Oba crashing over the table.

Breakker threw Oba back into the ring, built up a running start, and connected with a massive clothesline. The crowd began rallying behind Oba, but Breakker cut him off with a Samoan Drop gut buster before grounding him with a rear-naked choke and body scissors. Oba fought free, only for Breakker to catch him with a German suplex. Breakker taunted and badmouthed Oba before slowing the pace.

Oba eventually fought his way up from another German suplex attempt and launched his comeback with a series of clotheslines and a big boot. He followed with a series of running uppercuts in the corner, the final one knocking Breakker off his feet. Oba then connected with a chokeslam for a near fall and set up for his belly-to-back throw, but Breakker raked his eyes to escape. Breakker tossed Oba to the outside and built up a running start around the ring post, but Oba suddenly cut him off with a combination shoulder tackle and uppercut.

Austin Theory then attacked Oba on the floor, but Oba quickly fought him off and sent him crashing through a table with the belly-to-back throw. The distraction allowed Breakker to hit Oba with a spear on the floor. Breakker threw him back into the ring and connected with another spear, but Oba kicked out at two.

Logan Paul’s music then hit, and Paul approached the ring carrying brass knuckles. He was apparently serving as a distraction while Maxxine Dupri handed the weapon to Breakker from the opposite side of the ring. Breakker attempted to strike Oba, but Oba ducked and immediately hit the belly-to-back throw. Oba began setting up for his powerbomb finish, but a returning Bronson Reed suddenly attacked him with a chair, forcing the referee to call for the bell.

WINNER: Oba by disqualification in 13:00

-Following the match, Breakker and Reed continued their assault on Oba, hitting him with a series of Tsunamis before embracing. There was no mention or indication of Paul Heyman’s involvement in the post-match attack.

(Hubbard’s Analysis: This was an okay match, but it never reached the level of a blowaway performance. Surprisingly, both Oba and Breakker appeared to run out of gas toward the end, which was particularly noticeable because they never worked at an especially frantic pace. The lack of cardio took away from the explosiveness that is usually the trademark of both men. I was also surprised by how much of the match Oba spent working from underneath. I’ve complimented his selling in the past, but this was not one of his better performances in that respect. Bronson Reed’s interference left a significant impact and clearly establishes an angle that will be followed up on television in the coming weeks. Some fans may be disappointed that we didn’t get a definitive finish, but I think that misses the point of the match. This was more of a setup than a conclusion.)

(4) CHARLOTTE FLAIR & ALEXA BLISS & TATUM PAXLEY vs. JADE CARGILL & MICHIN & B-FAB

Tatum Paxley shined early, hitting a flipping ax kick on B-Fab before B-Fab temporarily cut her off. Paxley thwarted an attempted double-team maneuver from Michin and B-Fab, countering with an arm drag and kick. She then knocked Jade Cargill off the apron and connected with a running enzuigiri from the floor on B-Fab. However, while Paxley remained on the floor, Cargill cut her off with a hard knee before the heels hit a double suplex on Paxley.

Paxley avoided another charge and made the early hot tag to Alexa Bliss. Bliss entered with a combination of strikes followed by a flipping neckbreaker. She attempted Sister Abigail on B-Fab, but B-Fab eventually countered into an elevated Flatliner. The heels then worked over Bliss in their corner until she created an opening with an awkward headscissors, allowing her to make the hot tag to Charlotte Flair.

Flair exploded into the match with a high crossbody on Michin followed by a series of chops and a German suplex. Charlotte added her trademark handstand clothesline before she and Michin battled for position on the top rope. The exchange ended with Charlotte hitting a headscissors off the ropes. After another awkward exchange, Charlotte scored with a roll-up, but Cargill made a blind tag and hit Flair with a superkick. Jade followed with a Torture Rack Bomb, but the subsequent pin attempt was broken up by Paxley.

Cargill attempted Jaded on Charlotte, but Flair rolled through into a pin attempt. The cover was broken up before Charlotte hit a fallaway slam on Michin and followed with a moonsault onto both Cargill and Michin. Charlotte and Bliss attempted their double Natural Selection, with Charlotte successfully connecting while Bliss was pulled to the floor and thrown into the steel steps.

Charlotte and Paxley then attempted simultaneous Figure Four Leglocks in the center of the ring. B-Fab kicked Paxley off, sending her crashing into Charlotte and allowing Cargill to reposition Flair into a Jaded for the win.

WINNER: Cargill, B-Fab & Michin in 10:00

(Hubbard’s Analysis: This was an uneven match, although the live audience seemed forgiving of the inconsistencies. There were some good sequences, but a lot of the action was choppy and mistimed. Fortunately, nothing went badly enough to derail the match, and they eventually arrived at a logical finish with the heels getting the victory. More importantly, the finish leaves plenty of story to tell with the evolving friendship and partnership between the three babyfaces, particularly the relationship between Charlotte and Tatum Paxley.)
