The Meta-Four (Lash Legend and Jakara Jackson) def. Carlee Bright and Kendal GreyBright has had at least a few matches on Level Up, but I believe this was the first time I've seen Grey in action. She came across as generic at the start, but she ultimately fared well for herself and had a decent showing. Same for Bright. I feared the worst for this match because Legend and Jackson are still works in progress, but it was perfectly passable. Unfortunately, we found out on Tuesday that Meta-Four will be the hosts of Stand & Deliver and I am not looking forward to that. Je’Von Evans def. ScryptsEvans has been the most must-see part of Level Up for at least a month or so. I wasn't exposed to any of his work pre-WWE (to my knowledge), but he's been incredibly impressive in the handful of matches he's had so far. Scrypts was a nice opponent for him here as they have similar high-flying styles and the crowd was into the action. This was a fun little sprint and the outcome was a pleasant surprise. Hank Walker and Tank Ledger def. Tyriek Igwe and Tyson DupontThese teams alluded to this being the third match in a Best-of-3 Series during their backstage interview earlier in the episode and the commentators acknowledged that as well. I don't know if this was officially labeled as such, but either way, it's nice to see their match given a little more meaning with that attention to detail, even without anything at stake. It was another solid, physical hoss fight from them and it gives Hank and Tank their second win of the week after beating Edris Enofe and Malik Blade on Main Event. Overall ShowThis show didn't have too many established acts, but it was an above-average episode by the usual Level Up standards with all three matches exceeding my expectations. The women did well, I enjoyed the match in the middle as much as the crowd did, and the main event had history behind it. This was easily a thumbs-up show with a certain energy about it that most of the other editions don't have.
