Match 1
Zack Ryder w/ Mojo Rawley vs Tyler Breeze w/ Fandango
(referee: Mike Chioda)
Result: Zack Ryder wins via pinfall after a Rough Ryder
Time: 4:02
Match Thoughts
Pretty good match. It was fun and just long enough. Fandango was a better partner than Mojo, helping Breeze keep control for the majority of the match. But Mojo played a role in the finish, a finish that was quick but pretty good.

Match Thoughts
Good match. It went down pretty much like you’d expect for an American Alpha match, but it was still entertaining to watch.

Show Impressions
Not bad. Not great, but not bad for a Main Event.
Match of the Night
American Alpha vs The Ascension
Both matches were pretty equal in terms of quality, but this one was a little longer.
