Daniel Garcia def. Tylor SullivanAt first glance, Garcia looks like a generic dude, but the guy can go in the ring, as seen in his recent matches on Dynamite, Rampage and the Dark shows. That was once again the case here as he put Sullivan away in around two minutes. He's not a flashy competitor whatsoever, but that's what makes him stand out from most people on the roster. He's a submission specialist and matches up with competitors like Darby Allin (who he'll be facing again this Friday on Rampage) nicely.

Angelina Love def. Max the Impaler in a ROH Women's Championship Tournament Quarterfinal MatchLove did a nice job of recapping her history with Max and her manager Amy Rose in a pre-match sit-down interview. I have no idea where Mandy Leon was, but I'm not complaining because she almost always interferes in Love's matches. This was thankfully kept on the shorter side because Love's matches are typically abysmal and this was what it needed to be. Love picked up the win by disqualification to advance, but hopefully she doesn't make it past the semifinals.
Tim Storm def. Crimson and Thom Latimer in a Brawl in the LouA Brawl in the Lou is basically another name for a No Disqualification match and they took full advantage of the stipulation. I mean, that dive from Latimer onto Storm through a piece of the barricade was wild. Props to all three men involved because they put forth a hell of an effort. This was a lot better than I thought it was going to be. Storm was by far the oldest person in the match, but because he's an NWA OG, I had no problem with him going over, especially since it was the anniversary show.
Mickie James Addressed the AudienceJames served as the executive producer of the event, which is why she wasn't in action (in fact, she'll be wrestling on Sunday's NWA 73 pay-per-view against Kylie Rae). She went on the record following her release from WWE that she pushed for another installment of Evolution but WWE wasn't interested because some people in power didn't think it did well the first time, or something along those lines. Thus, it's fantastic James was able to do an All In-esque show with women from various promotions and be the frontrunner of it. This was a nice, short and sweet message from her to kick off the evening.
