What a victory for Angel Garza! He is super over with the crowd

Very excited to see what he can do with this opportunity

On a side note, if Rey Mysterio wins the title, I can still see that all mexican stable

Garza, Mysterio, Andrade and Carrillo? or Sin Cara? or one of the Lucha House party members?

Can you imagine if Dakota Kai became a member of Shayna’s team? That would be huge!

Shayna could say she has been very impressed with her, and bring her on board

I apologize to all of the Taynara Conti fans, but I think I like Dakota as a better option now

What an entertaining match!

All of Swerve’s matches have been! Have to love the potential on the former Evolve & MLW champion

Glad to see him used against different style opponents, and not only 205 type wrestlers.

I was wondering what could be next for Dijakovic, but a feud with Swerve could be fun
