 AEW All-Atlantic Champion Orange Cassidy def. Swerve StricklandThe streak of excellent Orange Cassidy openers/title defenses continues. This was top-notch stuff from these two. Cassidy feels like one of the hottest wrestlers in any promotion right now (that's bound to be a polarizing opinion, I know) and I'm happy Strickland got a chance to show what he can do. Strickland was my pick to win, so for as great of a reign as Cassidy has had, I was really hoping this would be where Strickland picked up some gold. Cassidy, Darby Allin, Sting and Keith Lee will face The Mogul Embassy next week.

 #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:
 Ilja Dragunov Confronted Baron CorbinIt's going to take a lot for fans to be able to take Corbin seriously again, but this was a great first promo from him. He established why he's back on the brand and came off as more motivated than he has in a long time. I got excited when Dragunov interrupted because I think those two could have killer chemistry together. It was made official for this show until Bron Breakker attacked Dragunov backstage, postponing it for another time. This was a really good segment and I'm looking forward to their match next week.
 Pre-Show: Flippin' Psychos def. Sent2Slaughter in a Crockett Cup First-Round MatchFlippin' Psychos consisted of Flip Gordan and Fodder. Sent2Slaughter consisted of Dan Maff and Shawn Donovan. Maff has been around for decades, and he was in Ring of Honor just a few years ago, but I've especially enjoyed his work in Northeast Wrestling these past few years. He and Donovan made for a fine powerhouse team, but Gordan and Fodder are more established and it was logical for them to advance.
