This was rock solid. ACH showed nice swagger & Theory impressed. ***1/4

Theory is really young and still raw at only 19 but I would be lying if I didn't admit some resentment towards him because I believe his position in EVOLVE could be executed better by someone like Sammy Guevara. This match worked best for me in the early goings. The mat work was snug and executed well and I thought Theory showed a good basis of the fundamentals by the way he locked on the armbar. The match progressively got worse as the psychology went out the door and they just started exchanging holds. Theory definitely needs some editing as that Canadian Destroyer move mid way through will exhibit. The storyline was ACH getting progressively more frustrated but I didn't think the moves and general back and forth conveyed that message in the best manner. A half baked match that never fully came together despite a promising start. **3/4
