Lee and Dijakovic picked this feud up where they left off months ago, and they delivered another super fun match. Both men were hitting spectacularly agile moves that guys their size don&#8217;t often do. They were also hitting some huge power moves, but neither man would give up. This was a lot of fun to watch, and hopefully it will propel both men to being in some conversations for title matches.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at Johnny Gargano and his drive to be the best.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAs the commentators discuss Johnny Gargano and his future in NXT, Shane Thorne walks up and interrupts.

Fish and O&#8217;Reilly&#8217;s teamwork was fantastic right from the start, and they singled out Montez Ford for a long time in the first half of the match. Dawkins got the tag and the match started to break down, but Fish and O&#8217;Reilly were able to take some damage while still dealing a lot of their own. By the end of the match, it felt like the Street Profits were running out of gas. They didn&#8217;t look bad, the Undisputed Era just looked better tonight.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Show Impressions<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nThis was a very good show.
