Matt Taven def. NWA World Tag Team Champion Mecha WolfI was surprised to see La Rebelion regain the NWA World Tag Team Championship at NWA 74 after how lengthy their first reign was, but it makes sense if they're going to continue feuding with The OGK. I don't think I've ever seen Mecha Wolf compete on his own, but he did well and had a good match with Taven. Bestia 666 vs. Mike Bennett might be next, but either way, I assume The OGK will soon be in line for a tag title opportunity.

The Judgment Day (Finn Balor and Damian Priest) def. Dolph Ziggler and AJ Styles; Edge and The Mysterios Attacked Judgment DayI know Balor beat Ziggler last week on Raw, but why was Styles the partner for Ziggler? I know he's had issues of his own with Judgement Day, but he hasn't feuded with them since the spring, so that was a bit random. The match itself was well wrestled and gave the group a much-needed win. The post-match angle with the babyfaces outsmarting the heels set up Edge and Rey Mysterio vs. Balor and Damian Priest at Clash at the Castle. So, I guess Dominik will just be in their corner? Is that where he turns? Also, I'm disappointed it doesn't look like Beth Phoenix will be involved in any way after they teased her confronting Rhea Ripley last week.
Dante Martin def. Wes BarkleyDespite my gripes with his booking over the last year, Martin remains a blast to watch in the ring. These enhancement matches allow him to showcase his skills and wow the audience with what he can do. This was only around a minute long and there was no need for it to be any longer than that considering his opponent wasn't anyone we know. Hopefully these wins can translate to something meaningful on TV eventually.
Pre-Show: Doug Williams vs. Rhett Titus in a Submission Match Ended in a Time-Limit DrawThis was a random last-minute addition to the card. Titus already beat VSK on the Night 1 pre-show, but it was cool to get Williams in action since he had to be pulled and relinquish the NWA World Tag Team Championship due to an injury/illness to Davey Boy Smith Jr. The stipulation was especially random, but it complimented their styles nicely and it was a quality contest. Could they not have done a decisive finish?
