Metalik went for a quick roll-up but Ricochet kicked out at one. Metalik cartwheeled through an arm drag from Ricochet. More flipping ensued from both wrestlers, then finally a standoff.<\/p>\n<p>Ricochet scoop slammed Metalik then dropped a quick elbow before covering for two. Metalik executed another hurricanrana, this time off the middle ropes, and was successful. He followed up with a drop kick to Ricochet, then pinned for a two-count. Metalik applied a chinlock.<\/p>\n<p>The wrestlers got to their feet and Metalik hit a standard suplex then made another pin attempt with a two-count. Ricochet ducked a clothesline, then landed a springboard moonsault off the middle rope. Both men were slow to get up. Ricochet sidestepped the charging Metalik and hoisted him into a seated position on the top turnbuckle. Ricochet brought him down the hard way with a high-altitude hurricanrana of his own. He then hit Metalik with a standing shooting star press before covering for a two-count.<\/p>\n<p>Ricochet wriggled out of a fireman&#8217;s carry, then blasted Metalik in the face with a right kick. He snapped Metalik to the canvas with a half nelson suplex. He hoisted Metalik onto his shoulders and dropped him into the Kickback. This was good for the three-count.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Ricochet by pinfall in 5:50.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2489668455\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p><em>(Meyers\u2019s Analysis: It&#8217;s refreshing to see any member of Lucha House Party in singles action, and Metalik really shines with an opponent such as Ricochet.

Carrillo eventually used a springboard arm drag to send Garza out to the floor under the bottom rope. Carrillo went for a baseball slide to the outside, but Garza ducked. When Carrillo charged at Garza near the apron, Garza ducked and hoisted Carrillo with a back body drop that positioned Carrillo in a headstand on the apron, resting against the ropes. Garza superkicked the inverted Carrillo in the face. Garza removed his tear-away pants and we cut to break.<\/p>\n<p>Garza had control after the break. Tom said that Garza is talented, but in the past his \u201cromantic exploits\u201d caused his head to be in the wrong place. Carrillo made a surprise roll-up pin for a two-count, then came back with a springboard kick to the face. Both men recovered slowly on the mat. The wrestlers exchanged blows briefly, then Carrillo took Garza down with a drop kick. Garza flipped Carrillo onto the apron, but Carrillo knocked Garza back with a forearm to the face. Carrillo climbed to the top turnbuckle and hit a missile drop kick before pinning Garza for two.<\/p>\n<p>Garza escaped from a torture rack position, but Carrillo quickly hit a springboard forearm strike. Carrillo pinned Garza for another two-count. Garza rolled up Carrillo but the ref ceased the count when he noticed Garza had a handful of Carrillo&#8217;s tights. Garza briefly argued with the ref, but soon superkicked Carrillo. With Carrillo stunned, Garza moved in and hit the Wing Clipper \u2013 this was good for the three-count.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Angel Garza by pinfall in 8:00.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Meyers\u2019s Analysis: This match felt clunkier than the first \u2013 less flow. Nothing too exciting.)<\/em><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2071741604\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>SHOW SCORE (0-10): 7.0<\/p>\n<p><em>Find Mike Meyers on Twitter: @themikeshow42<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH UP&#8230;<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2020\/10\/16\/10-14-wwe-main-event-tv-report-titus-oneal-vs-drew-gulak-humberto-carrillo-vs-akira-tozawa\/\">10\/14 WWE MAIN EVENT TV REPORT: Titus O\u2019Neal vs. Drew Gulak, Humberto Carrillo vs. Akira Tozawa<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-1351926716\"><div id=\"pwtor-4115262199\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>WWE MAIN EVENT TV REPORT OCTOBER 21, 2020 HULU STREAMING TV REPORT BY MIKE F.
