This was a pretty nothing match. We started off with Dusty’s usual schtick for the crowd, and after some perfunctory opening hold exchanges they ended up brawling in the crowd. Dusty was posted and ate a Lariat on the floor. When he tried to get back in he ate a second Lariat to the back of the head and then was counted out. This was quite short and I don’t think either man showed anything we haven’t seen before or really anything that shows them off in their best light either.
