It’s Wednesday! You know what that means!
We’re in for a massive show. I guess everything really IS bigger in Texas. Let’s get to it!
Kenny Omega’s music hits as the show kicks off!
1. Kenny Omega vs. Rocky “Azucar” Romero
Romero starts off with a jacket toss but Omega comes right back and tosses him out of the ring before launching himself on top of his opponent. He takes control.
Romero jumps out of the ring to avoid a V-Trigger. Romero uses this moment to land some shots. An early pinfall forces Omega to kick out. Romero goes for clotheslines in the corner but Omega fights out with a boot to Romero’s jaw.
Romero gloats to the camera but gets a V-Trigger to the back of his head. I’m not sure that’s the best move, Romero.
