Match 1
Neville vs Curtis Axel
(referee: Darrick Moore)
Result: Neville wins via pinfall after Red Arrow
Time: 4:37
Match Thoughts
Pretty good match. It’s about what you’d expect from these two. Neville showed impressive speed and some nice leaps, Axel tended to get beat up.

Match 2
Jack Swagger vs Titus O’Neil
(referee: Chad Patton)
Result: Titus O’Neil wins via pinfall after Clash of the Titus
Time: 8:21 (1 break)
Match Thoughts
Pretty good match. It was a little uneven, but that’s mostly due to Titus’ style. He has bursts of offense, but he certainly takes his time between each burst. He talks a lot too, but the things he says don’t make much sense.
Video
From RAW, Kevin Owens faced Sami Zayn.
Show Impressions
The two matches were only pretty good, so I can’t really recommend this show.
Match of the Night
Neville vs Curtis Axel
The second match was longer, but I think the excitement that Neville brings to the ring was enough to outshine everything else on the show.
