Lyra Valkyria vs Kairi Sane

Sane side headlock takeovers her. Lyra cartwheels out of an arm throw. Lyra side headlocks her. Lyra legsweeps her and basement dropkicks her for 2. Sane axe kicks her over the 2nd rope.

Sane forearms her down then sliding forearms her against the bottom rope for 2. Sane hits lousy chops on the apron. Lyra takes her down on the apron then dropkicks her through the ropes.

Lyra misses a top rope crossbody. Sane alabama slams her for 2. Sane hits forearms on Lyra. Lyra hits kicks. Sane urakens her for 2. Sane top rope crossbodies Lyra, Lyra back rolls through then hits a cradle shock to win.

Thoughts: It underperformed. Sane hit some really weak chops here and it was just not the athletic and faster paced match it should have been. I'm not sure what's been going on with Sane since she returned from injury. At first I thought she just had ring rust, but the effort is missing now too.

Sheamus vs Kit Wilson

Sheamus gets a big pop and gets on the mic. He says the crowd is gonna make him start crying if he keeps this up. He says it's great to be back in Ireland and says he's in the greatest city in the world. He has the crowd sign an Irish song.

Kit hits shots on Sheamus before he's ready. Sheamus pushes him off of him. Kit hits a big slap and taunts him. Sheamus chases him around the ring then slams him. Sheamus goes for his chest clubs but Kit jawbreakers him. Kit dropkicks him off the apron into the commentary table.

We go to break and return. Kit 2nd rope double axe handles him then is hit in the gut when he tries it again. Kit dropkicks him in the knee then ddt's his leg. Kit chinlocks Sheamus.

Sheamus hits mounted corner punches and Kit eye pokes him. Sheamus misses a corner charge and goes into the post. Kit tornado ddt's him. Kit hits a top rope twisting elbow drop for 2. Kit slaps him. Sheamus hits lariats. Sheamus spinning backbreakers him.

Kit double boots him out of the corner and Sheamus pumping knees him from the side. Sheamus clubs on Kit's chest on the apron. Sheamus hits a brogue kick and wins.

Thoughts: They made it clear that Sheamus was winning here and he did. It went longer than it needed to and wasn't anything too special. We were all just waiting for Kit to go down and he eventually did.

Sheamus grabs a kid after and poses with him.

Overall thoughts: There were only 2 new matches here as usual along with various recaps. Neither match was that good in my opinion and it was only noteworthy for Sheamus getting to wrestle at home.
