This match was super fun and exactly what I expected. Brody is a beast, and Dory won't die. Dory is out for revenge from the previous week when Brody dropped a knee on a young kid (appeared to be Funk family member) and the kid was bleeding from the mouth. This is a good bloody brawl. It ends in DQ - Brody ends up dropping the same knee drop on Dory - and Terry Funk comes out still pissed looking for revenge too. Entertaining.

This was fine, I guess, and the crowd was into it... but it wasn't a good match. It was slightly clipped and it was probably for the best, as nothing interesting happened, until Dory bled and started semi-convincingly selling Brody's attacks. Their attacks and expressions also were a bit cartoonish at times, but they got their point across and the fans reaction testifies that. Overbooked finish, that at least got some fire out of Dory and hypes their personal issue, even though I am not a fan of a title changing hands by DQ. This was what it was, at the end of the day
**1/2
