The finish made sense, but it felt a little underwhelming given the rest of the match. Otherwise, I think this was great. Ali went into the match still hurting from last week&#8217;s fight with Itami, and Nese took advantage of that. It was a good underdog battle for Ali (like most of his matches).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match Cedric Alexander runs to the ring. Tony Nese leaves the ring and backs away. Alexander helps Ali get to his feet, and Alexander raises Ali&#8217;s hand. Buddy Murphy comes out to the stage and joins Tony Nese. Murphy doesn&#8217;t look worried.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nGood show.
