Duke and Shafir looked okay for their first match. From this outing, Duke definitely seemed to be the stronger performer on her team. Kai was very aggressive in the match, an Shirai pretty much had her way with Shafir. It was interesting to see how handily Kai and Shirai dispatched Duke and Shafir. I enjoyed it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA promo for Dijakovic.

It was as brutal and emotional as I could&#8217;ve hoped for. The fight went back and forth with both men getting in a lot of good offense. The match culminated in a strong piece of storytelling when Tommaso Ciampa showed up. No words were spoken, but the actions raised a lot of questions that will be entirely entertaining to find out the answers to.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nGood show.
