#9 Mustafa Ali vs. Hideo Itami (205 Live, August 7th):

This was just a brutal contest that really escalated the rivalry between Mustafa Ali and Hideo Itami. Both threw the best moves in their respective arsenals at their competitor, and it appeared that Mustafa Ali had the match won at times, but he was hurt so badly that Hideo Itami eventually picked up the victory following three corner dropkicks to the head.

In the aftermath, an angle centring on Ali being concussed was sold to the audience. He stumbled and insisted he was fine, but GM Drake Maverick didn't agree and sent him home to recover.

Now he's back, and the rivalry will be even better after this match.
