Young wristlocks him. Kid headflips out. Young side headlocks him then shoulders him over. Kid backrolls him then 2nd rope twisting crossbodies him. Kid flying headscissors him then superkicks him out. Kid swantons Young off the post outside.

Young backbreakers him, sits him on his knee and lariats him. Kid is thrown hard into the buckles. Kid hits forearms then Young lariats him. Young elbow drops him. Young suplexes him then armlocks him.

Kid boots him out of the corner. Kid hits a top rope dropkick. Kid neckbreakers him. Young finlay rolls him then misses his seated moosault. Kid hits a 450 and wins.

Thoughts: They didn't get a lot of time here and did what they could with it. Young got his usual spots in. Kid did a nice swanton off the post and won with a 450. It was fine for what it was but it wasn't much.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches here and a new interview segment as usual. Neither were great but they didn't have enough time to be. They got as much out of the main as they could. It's not a show you need to see but nothing was awful.
