WWE Speed #1 Contenders Tournament Qualifier - Akira Tozawa vs Riley Osborne
Riley takes him down and is booted away. Riley rolls him up. Riley flips out of a german and does a leg lariat. Akira double boots him out of the corner and hits a 2nd rope headscissors. Akira dropkicks him out. Riley stops Akira's dive.
Riley 450's over Tozawa on the 2nd rope and rolls over his back. Riley hurricanrana's him and dropkicks him. Riley hits a tope con hilo. Riley looks for cheers from the crowd and gets none. Riley misses a top rope ssp. Akira corkscrew kicks him. Akira hits a top rope senton and wins at 1:44.
Thoughts: They maybe had the best 3 minute Speed match so far. Riley had an impressive outing here, easily transitioning from one spot to the next and making it look easy. I'd really like to see this again with more time on another show as what we got looked good. The crowd had no idea who Riley was sadly.
Bron Breakker vs Sheamus in the quarterfinals is then announced for Wednesday 11/6. As you may know, WWE counts the title match as part of the tournament, so this match is a quarterfinals match instead of a semi-final match.
Overall thoughts: There was only one match as usual. What we got was good, but we only got 1:44 of it. It was one of the better Speed matches so far but hardly a must see battle. I would not recommend this.
