Daivari was angry about last week, and it showed in how he wrestled. He was aggressive, and I really like how that helped the match. Daivari dominated the first half of the match, but Swann came back with some strong offense towards the end. I&#8217;d like to see this little feud continue.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Noam Dar shoves Swann off the turnbuckle and out to the floor as he&#8217;s celebrating.

Neville thinks it&#8217;s funny that people think his submission match with Aries will be his biggest challenge yet. Aries takes everyone on a trip down memory lane and talks about how Neville took the cheap way out in their previous title matches. He knows that Neville can&#8217;t get out of this third match and still hold on to his title. Neville says Aries is in no condition to step into the ring with him.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>Cedric Alexander vs Johnny Boone<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Ryan Tran)<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e61bb3a0360','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e61bb3a0360\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e61bb3a0360\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Cedric Alexander wins via pinfall after a lumbar check<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 1:34<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nA squash.

They gave them plenty of time for this one, and they deserved it. Tozawa started fast and strong, surprising Kendrick. Eventually Kendrick used some dirty tricks to get the upper hand and the match became more even. Momentum shifted a few times, and both guys used some violent tactics. The finish to this one was quite good and memorable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was a good show.
