Hideo Itami vs Aleister Black
Jim Ross was the special guest commentator for the match. Aleister Black had a special entrance as the band Code Orange performed his theme song live. The two superstars couldn't keep away from each other but the referee ensured they were separated until the band stopped playing.
As the commentators said, there was no feeling out process. The match legitimately started with the two kicking the snot out of each other. It was a really cool scene as Black stood tall in the first sequence.
Back in the ring, the next notable sequence was when Itami hit a dropping guillotine knee onto Aleister from the top turnbuckle. Itami continued his offence as he continuously kicked Aleister Black on the back.
Black was busted up.from the nose. He even taunted as he flicked Aleister with the back of his shoe. He then taunted him again by sitting in his meditative pose, which Black clearly didn't like at all.
Black finally got some breathing space and began a flurry of offence of his own. He picked up Hideo's head with his foot, but Itami used a vicious back elbow to prevent it from happening. Itami made his comeback but got tricked by Black after he faked being knocked down by Itami's strikes.
Amazing selling from both competitors. Itami landed an avalanche Michinoku driver, but it did damage to Itami as well, who took time to go get the pin. When he did pin Black, it wasn't enough.
The two once again exchanged offence in a sequence that saw Itami hit a Falcon Arrow, only to get a two-count pin again. He toyed around with Black, only to be caught with a Black Mass OUTTA NOWHERE! That was lights out for Itami as the winning streak of Aleister Black continues.
