Tony Nese will tap out.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nTony Nese knows that he has to be at his best to defeat Drew Gulak tonight.

He holds no ill will toward Humberto Carrillo, but he still crushed him. Tonight, he will do the same to Cedric Alexander. It&#8217;s not personal though.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nCedric Alexander knows Oney Lorcan is a bad, bad man.

The pace was slower and more methodical to start, but it built up to some big moves and hard strikes throughout the latter portion of the match. This was a good test for both me. For Cedric specifically, he had to overcome Lorcan&#8217;s rough style and look for openings where he could use his speed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nMike Kanellis says he has paid his dues, so he demands respect from Drake Maverick.

Nese tried to match Gulak hold for hold, and though Nese did well, Gulak began to dominate after a while. There were lots of very nice chains and counters in this match. Nese began to try to use some flying against Gulak, but Gulak was able to avoid most of it. It took some clever counters at just the right times for Nese to get any significant offense in this match after a while.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nGood show.
