Last week's show is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2025/05/wwe-main-event-512025.html

Zoey Stark vs Maxxine Duprii

Max is out here with Natalya only. Zoey waistlock takedowns her footslaps her. Zoey boots her in the corner then Max monkey flips her. Max dropkicks her then Zoey neckbreakers her. Zoey hits mounted punches then chops her in the corner. Max hits some chops then is german'd for 2.

Zoey lariats her then facelocks her. Max takes her over then stunners her off a suplex attempt. Max hits shots on her then flying forearms her. Max spinning high kicks her. Max northern lights suplexes her for 2.

Max hits a corner splash and dances. Max then then does the caterpillar elbow drop. Zoey rams her into the apron edge. Zoey misses a springboard dropkick. Max goes for the sharpshooter and is rolled up and pinned.

Thoughts: It went longer than usual. The match was one of Max's better efforts and she did what she was supposed to as a face. Can she do any more or dwell from the formula though? I doubt it, but a win is a win and this was a win.

Ludwig Kaiser vs Tyler Bate

They lock up and TB puts him in the corner. LK chest slaps him and armlocks him. TB kips up out of it several times then trips him. TB arm flips him.

TB spinning headscissors LK and hits armdrags. LK throws him down by the arm. LK double stomps the arm. TB upkicks him then back body drops him. TB dropkicks him out of the ring.

We go to break and return. LK stomps the arm and they each hit punches. LK hits chops then TB exploders him. TB hits punches then hits running forearms. TB corner euros him then michinoku drivers him for 2.

TB kneelifts him. LK throws him down from the buckles by the arm. LK throws him into the post shoulder first. TB backdrops him then airplane spins him. TB then AA's him down. AA is dropped off a flying headscissors attempt. LK then armlocks him. He sits on his back and TB taps out.

Thoughts: It made sense and was fine wrestling wise but the crowd could not have cared less for Bate. He got no reaction whatsoever. LK mostly stuck to armwork here and eventually won with it.

Overall thoughts: We only had two new matches as usual. Both were fine but neither were must see or anything too great. I wouldn't recommend this one but it was okay.
