Riley rolls away from him then backflips off a shove. Riley is lifted up and escapes. Riley hits dropkicks and takes a wild thrown over the top rope. Troy hits shots on him outside and fakes his forearm on Riley's face.

Troy abdominal stretches him and tells him to bend the knee. Riley shots to the leg and running facekicks him. Riley springboard leg lariats him then hits a top rope ssp to win.
Thoughts: It was a good little big man vs little man match here. Troy had a great showing here. He's only two TV matches in and he already knows how to work like a big man. Maybe he's not the greatest at anything but he's already on solid ground. Riley's bump to the outside was wild.
Jazmyn Nyx and Jacy Jayne are interviewed. Nyx isn't impressed with Kendal Grey. She says she picked up a win and now thinks she can beat anyone. The interviewer asks more questions then Jacy cuts her off and they leave.

Thoughts: It was a short but fun match here. Grey looked great as usual, just sliding around the ring like a cat. She legit has potential to be the women's champ someday. Nyx had a good showing here and the finish was a fun surprise.

Chen suplexes him and they trade punches. Chen hits palm strikes and larits him. Chen atomic drops him and misses a pump kick. Borne hits a great dropkick for 2. Chen cradles him then hits a pump kick. Chen double chops him and wins.
Thoughts: It was a solid match here with Borne working the knee, Chen selling it then Chen making his comeback to win. I do worry about my man Myles though. He has so much potential and he just hasn't gotten anywhere yet at all. If he was in Japan, he'd be getting pushed like the next top guy.
Overall thoughts: All three matches were solid and it was a good edition of Level Up.
