 Mustafa Ali def. Arturo RuasAli shockingly lost his last match on Main Event a few weeks ago to Riddick Moss and it would have been even worse if he lost to Ruas here. Ruas has appeared on Main Event at least one other time this year and was a part of Raw Underground just recently. As you could probably tell from his gear, he legitimately has fighting experience, so that might explain why WWE opted to protect him in defeat with the roll-up loss here. He and Ali had a fun little match and it was nice to see Ruas score so much offense.

 Karrion Kross Vacated the NXT ChampionshipTriple H confirmed in a conference call immediately after TakeOver XXX on Saturday night that Kross was injured in the main event against Keith Lee, and unfortunately, it looks like the injury will keep him out for the foreseeable future. That's a serious bummer. Hopefully he heals up quickly and is back on the sooner side. I think this was the most we've ever heard from him in NXT and he came across well. Fingers crossed he gets a chance to reclaim the NXT Championship and isn't rushed to the main roster.
 #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:
 Impact World Champion Eddie Edwards def. Rob Van Dam; Edwards and Eric Young BrawledI enjoy heel RVD, but I find Katie Forbes to be completely insufferable, and not in a good "heel heat" way, either. On the bright side, the match itself was well wrestled and RVD held his own despite looking slow at various points. Edwards carried him to a competent contest and I was glad it didn't last too long. Edwards came back out later on in the show (after some backstage vignettes and Wrestle House) to cut a promo on Young, which led to a heated brawl between them. It was solid setup for a title match next week, though I would have had their encounter take place immediately after the opener instead of saving it for later on.
 Best Friends def. Demetri Jackson and Storm ThomasBest Friends never cease to entertain me. Their tag team work is consistently solid and that was once again the case here. This victory gave them an additional momentum boost, which helps considering they're currently in the midst of a rivalry with Santana and Ortiz. This was a quality opening to the show with Jackson and Thomas selling well for Best Friends' offense.
