Gallagher seemed to be the fan favorite and really showed his technical skills, making Tozawa look foolish at times with some of the predicaments Gallagher put him in. Gallagher worked on Tozawa&#8217;s legs very, very well which added a lot to the match. Tozawa showed his toughness and speed as he attempted to mount a comeback since Gallagher kind of dominated a large portion of the match. This was a great way to show exactly what both wrestlers can do.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nPro wrestling is Hoho Lun&#8217;s life.

Hoho Lun seemed outclassed again in this match. Dar was much more confident and crisp with everything he did. He also had a game plan (to work on Lun&#8217;s leg to set him up for a submission) while Lun was just surviving.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nTony Nese will be the biggest name coming out of the tournament.

The tone was set immediately when Kendrick charged and Nese leveled him with a knee. Kendrick took a beating, using any trick he could to stay in the match. It built up to a great finish that was completely believable and very satisfying.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThe second round continues to be better than the first (which was already really good). The winners are becoming more difficult to choose which makes the matches even more exciting. I was very, very pleased with how this episode turned out, and seeing the third round develop has me very pleased.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match of the Night<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Brian Kendrick vs Tony Nese<\/strong><br \/>\nAfter watching Tozawa versus Gallagher I thought that might be my pick for the night, but once again Kendrick showed how valuable experience is when it comes to putting together a great match.
