Joe Alonzo def. Colby Corino to Win the NWA Junior Heavyweight ChampionshipThese two have battled at least once before (maybe more) with the gold up for grabs and it was one of the best bouts at Samhain. This was another enjoyable outing from them. I'm glad it was Alonzo who took the title from him because he's definitely improved as a talent and is the perfect person to be leading the division. Hopefully this means Corino can finally move up the card (unless he's on his way out of the company so he can sign with WWE as he was supposed to a year or two ago).

FTR def. The Infantry in an AEW World Tag Team Championship Tournament Semifinal MatchIt's cool that The Infantry made it this far in the tournament, but there was no way they were getting past FTR here. Despite that, they put forth another commendable performance and looked credible in defeat. Hopefully AEW capitalizes on the momentum they've managed to build up. With this win, FTR advance to the finals of this tag title tournament to face The Young Bucks at Dynasty.
Pre-Show: Joe Gacy def. Shawn SpearsThe "Kickoff" shows are apparently now known as "Countdown" shows, but I'll refer to them as the pre-show in my reviews for the sake of clarity. Anyway, this match was just added to the card on Tuesday's NXT. They've been feuding for a few weeks and I don't know why. Hey, this got them on the card in front of a capacity crowd, so there was that. This was solid albeit unspectacular. Spears was made to look like a total loser by being beaten by a guy who was attacked by Ridge Holland with a chair beforehand.
Malakai Black def. Christopher DanielsI'll never complain about getting Black in singles competition because we went almost two years without seeing a singles match from him before recently. Despite being the total package in my opinion, Black has done a whole lot of nothing so far in AEW. I'd love to see him be the one to dethrone Adam Copeland as AEW TNT Champion, but I'm not optimistic. This would have been a cool feud a few years ago, but at least it made for a solid match here.
