Indi Hartwell def. Kayden CarterCarter and Katana Chance are better in tag team competition than on their own, but I thought Carter had a decent showing here as well as Hartwell. The match itself wasn't great and the finish came off awkwardly. Much like last week, it didn't help that Hartwell worked with another babyface. She won't get over until WWE gives the audience a reason to root for her. Meanwhile, the women's tag team scene is essentially dead in the water at the moment and that's not good news for Carter and Chance.

AEW International Champion Rey Fenix def. Jeff JarrettTony Khan tweeted that both Fenix and Jon Moxley were injured in their match last week but that Fenix was cleared shortly before this show. Here's wishing Moxley a speedy recovery because that bump he took from Fenix looked nasty. As for this open challenge, Jarrett wasn't exactly who I had in mind as Fenix's opponent. Granted, I didn't have any one name in mind, but Jarrett was not a strong choice. They had a well-worked match, but the shenanigans with Jarrett's crew at ringside were definitely distracting as well as overkill.
#AskGSM is a weekly Q&A video where I, Graham "GSM" Matthews, answer fan questions from Facebook, Twitter and YouTube in regards to the world of wrestling. Nothing is off limits, and this week's edition touches upon a variety of topics including:
Butch def. Joe Coffey in the Finals of the NXT Global Heritage InvitationalSimilar to Butch vs. Tyler Bate last week, these two have history as well. Many may not remember, but they headlined the first NXT UK TakeOver for the NXT United Kingdom Championship back in January 2019. They had a well-wrestled opener. I didn't have Butch pegged to win this whole thing, but I suppose he makes more sense than Coffey. He definitely does not need the NXT Heritage Cup Championship, though. Between Becky Lynch, Baron Corbin, Dominik Mysterio and now Butch, No Mercy will be loaded with main roster stars, and that could be considered overkill.
